| 00:00.08 | Dantonic | I mean physically you're saying there is no difference in time to access the 1st byte on the card as the last byte? |
| 00:00.18 | `0660_ | that's correct |
| 00:00.37 | `0660_ | there are no moving parts in flash |
| 00:01.31 | till- | maybe a very little difference, as the electric energy travels with lightspeed and the distance to one end of the memory might be a little bit longer .. |
| 00:01.40 | dmj726 | Anyone do icons here? |
| 00:01.43 | Dantonic | right I understand that but doesnt the electricity still have to travel physically from one byte located phisically somewhere on the card, or another byte located somewhere else?? Or probably that's not a bottleneck in regafds to accessing it? |
| 00:01.54 | `0660_ | but that delay would be hidden by the controller anyway |
| 00:02.05 | Dantonic | ok so the controller is the bottleneck basically |
| 00:02.14 | Dantonic | so it doesnt matter |
| 00:02.20 | till- | and the memory itself i would say |
| 00:02.26 | Dantonic | right |
| 00:02.35 | `0660_ | i think the controller waits a fixed period of time for the data to arrive |
| 00:02.59 | Dantonic | do you guys have a NIT? boot from SD card? |
| 00:03.13 | till- | did once |
| 00:03.33 | till- | but the file system got corrupt, so i switched back |
| 00:03.41 | Dantonic | I guess tho definitely keep the swap on a separate SD card tho right? |
| 00:03.49 | Dantonic | so if I boot from internal, keep the swap on external? |
| 00:03.56 | Dantonic | otherwise it might get too slow? |
| 00:04.04 | till- | i don't think so |
| 00:04.05 | Dantonic | or it wouldnt affect anything? |
| 00:04.36 | Dantonic | I mean in that case the same controller would be having to deal with accessing memory for swap and for the OS? |
| 00:04.37 | till- | normal computers put the swap on the same hd as the files |
| 00:05.06 | Dantonic | but wouldnt it be better to have swap be accessed by a different controller that is ONLY accessing the swap at that time? |
| 00:05.08 | till- | and are there really two memory controllers, or just one with two card slots connected? |
| 00:05.14 | Dantonic | as opposed to having to compete for information? |
| 00:05.20 | till- | maybe |
| 00:05.23 | Dantonic | oh IDK about that |
| 00:05.26 | Dantonic | idk if its 1 controller |
| 00:05.29 | Dantonic | or 2 |
| 00:05.31 | jjmarin | GeneralAntilles: What do you mean with "is it impacting functionality?". These messages appear on several menus across Maemo. |
| 00:05.46 | till- | someone should do some benchmarking |
| 00:05.55 | Dantonic | ya that'd be interesting... |
| 00:06.20 | till- | my problem with swap is that the whole nit freeze for some seconds |
| 00:06.29 | till- | and i guess it's because of swapping |
| 00:06.31 | Dantonic | well I'm gonna make a 500mb Fat, 1500mb linux, and make a swap on my external... and see what happens |
| 00:06.47 | Dantonic | freeze? |
| 00:07.01 | till- | yeah, no reaction |
| 00:07.26 | Dantonic | hmm yeah I've experienced that |
| 00:07.29 | till- | and then after maybe 30 seconds or so it continous normal work |
| 00:07.38 | Dantonic | oh woah not 30 second freezes |
| 00:07.38 | till- | or crashes the desktop |
| 00:07.49 | Dantonic | maybe few seconds |
| 00:07.51 | Dantonic | not 30 |
| 00:07.52 | till- | and reset my customized menu and desktop |
| 00:08.01 | Dantonic | no that's not swapping |
| 00:08.06 | Dantonic | for me it was GPE summary |
| 00:08.12 | pupnik | xterm needs url log and launch! |
| 00:08.12 | Dantonic | I figured out it was crashing my desktop |
| 00:08.16 | Dantonic | do you use that prog? |
| 00:08.21 | till- | i had claws mail, pidgin, xchat and some websites open :) |
| 00:08.37 | Dantonic | well since I got rid of GPE summary no more desktop crash... |
| 00:08.48 | till- | for me it was the home tools applett |
| 00:09.04 | Dantonic | then I found that there was an updated version of GPE summary in extras devel... and installed that... its been 3 days and no crash yet... we'll see how it goes |
| 00:09.08 | till- | since i removed it the desktop keep beeing stable |
| 00:09.15 | Dantonic | ah |
| 00:09.15 | till- | mostly |

| 01:14.24 | lcuk | ive been mucking about with a projector that is small enough to fit into a bag and still be lighter than my laptop |
| 01:15.03 | CutMeOwnThroat | ha... wait some more years and a projector and a laser keyboard will be integrated |
| 01:15.08 | lcuk | nods |
| 01:15.09 | lcuk | cant wait |
| 01:15.15 | CutMeOwnThroat | you'll have to |
| 01:15.23 | lcuk | the alternative is proper real wireless video out |
| 01:15.47 | lcuk | being tethered to give a presentatation takes the fun out of it a tad |
| 01:15.48 | dmj726 | lcuk: that would be a killer app |
| 01:15.53 | lcuk | dmj726, which |

| 01:16.19 | lcuk | thats not an app |
| 01:16.23 | lcuk | it would have uses |
| 01:16.30 | zelrikriando | That s a device |
| 01:16.32 | lcuk | is considering something along similar lines |
| 01:16.32 | dmj726 | (which is a lot easier to do "in software" than a projector) |
| 01:16.34 | zelrikriando | not an app |
| 01:16.37 | CutMeOwnThroat | mm, a projector would need to be laser-based, else it'd eat up much too much energy, I guess |
| 01:16.40 | CutMeOwnThroat | even then... |
| 01:16.48 | lcuk | how would you keep the shark alive? |
| 01:16.53 | lcuk | it would need a little tank |
| 01:16.58 | dmj726 | oh, I see the kind of video out you're thinking |
| 01:17.08 | lcuk | no you dont |
| 01:17.17 | lcuk | :P |
| 01:17.20 | dmj726 | Do they even have wireless video standards like that? |
| 01:17.22 | zelrikriando | I am not sure but I think the app would be easy to write |
| 01:17.23 | CutMeOwnThroat | but I do! |
| 01:17.32 | lcuk | dmj726, ive been getting wireless video for years ;) |
| 01:17.56 | lcuk | i actually have something cool in mind |
| 01:18.04 | dmj726 | Do mention! |
| 01:18.09 | lcuk | and if i can get it working for one thing it might cascade into many things |
| 01:18.32 | lcuk | this is the pseudo version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yk27PenpAz0 |
| 01:18.48 | lcuk | i want that working for real but knowing where the devices are positioned relative to each other |
| 01:19.09 | lcuk | and i think if i can get it working for that one case, it might work for all of liqbase |

| 01:26.05 | CutMeOwnThroat | I know |

| 01:26.11 | lcuk | this is a technical problem im discussing with folks |
| 01:26.13 | dmj726 | and it isn't *that* precise either! |
| 01:26.14 | lcuk | theres a few methods |
| 01:26.33 | lcuk | audio would be one |
| 01:26.41 | lcuk | have the devices chirp from each speaker in sequence |
| 01:26.45 | lcuk | and have the others listening |
| 01:26.59 | lcuk | then compare notes on the relative volumes of each other |
| 01:27.04 | lcuk | and work out location based on that |
| 01:27.20 | simula | there is a radio transmitter and receiver ;) |
| 01:27.22 | lcuk | put up a 2dbarcode when the master machine says "cheese" |
| 01:27.39 | lcuk | radio is harder to get info reqd |
| 01:27.40 | CutMeOwnThroat | actually... I dunno if that could really work, but "together" at a relatively low frequency might work better than "in sequence" |
| 01:27.50 | lcuk | sequence is better |
| 01:27.53 | lcuk | and easier to manage |
| 01:28.10 | lcuk | and if done properly will sound like old school spectrum tapes (H) |
| 01:28.12 | CutMeOwnThroat | you'd get a typical interference pattern at the micro, depending on distance/orientation |
| 01:28.29 | lcuk | radio is mono |
| 01:28.49 | lcuk | using audio i can shout from 2 places |
| 01:28.57 | lcuk | easier to triangulate |
| 01:29.24 | lcuk | another alternative is 2dbarcode |
| 01:29.28 | lcuk | on the display |

| 02:15.25 | kurtan | thats enough for me to crave the n900 even more |
| 02:15.27 | kurtan | gaaaaaah |
| 02:16.34 | dmj726 | http://myn900.wordpress.com/2009/11/08/irc-using-xchat/ xchat shouldn't have that massive scrollbar |
| 02:16.43 | kurtan | no |
| 02:17.13 | kurtan | irssi thou.. <3 |
| 02:17.21 | dmj726 | pannable area would make a lot of sense there. |
| 02:19.18 | GeneralAntilles | dmj726, it doesn't. |
| 02:19.35 | dmj726 | not in xchat? |
| 02:19.41 | GeneralAntilles | dmj726, feel free to implement panable. ;) |
| 02:19.47 | dmj726 | instead of the scroll thing? |
| 02:19.55 | dmj726 | a right xchat, not gchat |
| 02:19.57 | GeneralAntilles | http://www.flickr.com/photos/generalantilles/4053628588/ |
| 02:20.08 | GeneralAntilles | XChat has a custom widget for the chat area. |
| 02:20.15 | GeneralAntilles | So changing that to pannable is non-trivial. |
| 02:20.43 | kurtan | :) |
| 02:20.58 | dmj726 | oh...that's much better |
| 02:21.38 | dmj726 | might be nice to be able to bring up a list of channel participants |
| 02:21.48 | dmj726 | ...perhaps as a popup? |
| 02:23.07 | CutMeOwnThroat | kurtan, there still doesn't seem to be a key for '|', though |
| 02:23.41 | kurtan | :/ |
| 02:24.03 | kurtan | gotta be accessible trou the sym-key? |
| 02:24.23 | CutMeOwnThroat | on the N810 I could just put a button on the screen next to Tab etc. |
| 02:24.39 | kurtan | mkay |
| 02:24.45 | CutMeOwnThroat | was a pain until I figured that out... what's a terminal without pipe? |
| 02:24.51 | kurtan | indubitably |
| 02:25.10 | dmj726 | Windows? |
| 02:25.11 | kurtan | ill try to figure that out on sunday |
| 02:25.39 | kalikianatoli | and xchat still hasn't fixed the close icon :-] |

| 02:28.29 | CutMeOwnThroat | yeah, there's even free spaces on the keys with <>... but the on-screen button worked well enough so I didn't bother to figure out how to get it on a key |

| 02:39.11 | dmj726 | and tha Nokia just wants it to be a surprise? |
| 02:39.14 | CShadowRun | Nope, but i bet i know where that stemmed from |
| 02:39.20 | CShadowRun | haha |
| 02:39.26 | GeneralAntilles | CShadowRun, install screen instead. ;) |
| 02:39.34 | kurtan | indeed |
| 02:39.38 | CShadowRun | I bet that somehow originated from 3M's mini projector |
| 02:40.12 | dmj726 | um...no, I just pulled it out of thin air, either that or darker places. |
| 02:40.16 | CShadowRun | I've always wanted to install ubuntu and compiz on the N900 too |

| 02:40.37 | kurtan | thou i'd like a phaser-function |
| 02:40.38 | CutMeOwnThroat | kurtan, yeah, I wonder if they'll drop maemo and just supply some extra-apps to a regular debian... I mean... 32GB - that really doesn't justify scraping all manpages and all the things that are done in maemo to save space... |
| 02:40.42 | kurtan | blast my enemies away |
| 02:41.01 | CShadowRun | haha |
| 02:41.06 | dmj726 | it's not a straight up 32 GB |
| 02:41.13 | kurtan | haha, compiz on the n900 is a bit far fetched :P |
| 02:41.15 | GeneralAntilles | Termana, according to whom? |

| 02:45.15 | Termana | Yeah, thats for the community edition of Diablo, it has nothing to do with the release of the GLES drivers. |
| 02:45.18 | GeneralAntilles | Firebird, that's for Diablo community SSUs. |
| 02:45.33 | GeneralAntilles | SD69, sounds more like he's saying that work is starting. |

| 03:02.38 | zelrikriando | at least by a bit |
| 03:02.38 | dmj726 | I've seen Linux viruses. The developer kindly pointed me to the paper he wrote about it on his website. |
| 03:02.39 | zerojay | You'll see scripts attempt to root boxes, but not virii. |
| 03:02.39 | aep | zerojay: the way linux usually works is that people too fast and to diverse for any virus to spread properly |
| 03:02.39 | aep | *update |
| 03:02.39 | GeneralAntilles | Hey, zerojay. |
| 03:02.39 | dmj726 | that and repositories make it harder to infect via warez |
| 03:02.39 | zerojay | aep: How are you going to infect a computer when you have no access to root? Simple, you don't. |
| 03:02.39 | aep | now with phones i'm not sure |
| 03:02.39 | zelrikriando | PPA's and stuff can make it happen though |
| 03:02.42 | zerojay | GeneralAntilles: Hey. |
| 03:02.52 | aep | zerojay: bugs. (ssh for example) |
| 03:03.02 | zerojay | And that's not a virus. |
| 03:03.14 | aep | well or worm. whatever you call it |
| 03:03.38 | aep | sorry for not using the technical correct word "malicious software" |
| 03:03.38 | dmj726 | Linux can get infected but it is technically harder to spread the infection. |
| 03:04.02 | aep | dmj726: thats what i am worried about. is it really if there are thousands of devices now with the exact same software? |
| 03:04.22 | zerojay | Talk to all the people with tivos out there. |
| 03:04.27 | dmj726 | Won't there be security updates though? |
| 03:04.28 | zelrikriando | it's pretty hard to root a phone |
| 03:04.37 | dmj726 | not an n900 |
| 03:04.44 | aep | dmj726: if they are optional you can be pretty sue 90% of users dont do them |
| 03:05.19 | dmj726 | The iphone has a virus |
| 03:05.26 | zelrikriando | yup |
| 03:05.27 | aep | well its still hard i guess. yeah. not sure if its even worth for virus vendors. not sure what their intentions are |
| 03:05.44 | CutMeOwnThroat | dmj726, shouldn't that be a worm, if it's in something from apple? :) |
| 03:05.54 | dmj726 | hehe |
| 03:06.13 | dmj726 | Only affects jailbreakers who don't set a password though. |
| 03:06.28 | aep | well thats operator error :P |
| 03:06.47 | dmj726 | There are n900 virii already |
| 03:07.19 | zelrikriando | most viruses are developed by microsoft |
| 03:07.27 | CutMeOwnThroat | there are? |
| 03:07.28 | dmj726 | Getting one would present a challenge though. |
| 03:07.32 | kurtan | iiiim baack |
| 03:07.34 | kurtan | :D |
| 03:07.37 | zelrikriando | CutMeOwnThroat: I am making shit up |
| 03:07.39 | CutMeOwnThroat | get orf our back |
| 03:07.52 | CutMeOwnThroat | zelrikriando, I meant the dmj726 |
| 03:07.56 | dmj726 | Yeah, just find a debian virus and try it...a considerable feat in itself. |
| 03:08.07 | kurtan | dmj726: indeed |
| 03:08.10 | aep | dmj726: obviously its trivial to brick your phone by downloading and executing random crap as root |
| 03:08.42 | aep | my real concern was related to real worms though :P |
| 03:08.51 | dmj726 | Yeah. |
| 03:08.53 | Termana | aep - its even easier than that to brick a phone |
| 03:08.57 | kurtan | i'd say thats pretty awesome if you manage to do that |
| 03:08.58 | kurtan | :P |
| 03:09.03 | dmj726 | Tell people to stick to the repos? |
| 03:09.22 | Termana | aep - all you do is simply, firstly grab a brick and then THROW that brick at the phone. You have sucessfully bricked your phone. |
| 03:09.27 | dmj726 | If you manage to get a Linux virus these days, you pretty much deserve what you get. |
| 03:09.33 | aep | :D |
| 03:09.45 | b-man17 | qwerty12_N810: do you still have the config.mtd file from your N800 by any chance? |
| 03:09.50 | CutMeOwnThroat | dmj726, how many "debian viruses" are there? |
| 03:09.59 | _r00t- | !!!!!!!!! |
| 03:10.00 | Termana | aep - Probably literally bricked it as well, since I doubt it would work after that |
| 03:10.08 | CutMeOwnThroat | I mean there's rootkits and things |
| 03:10.19 | aep | infinite if you count bogus ones that you have to install yourself. |
| 03:10.40 | aep | theres a billion blog bosts with "OMG LINUX VIRUZZ" |
| 03:10.43 | dmj726 | Step 1: Find instructions to write your own virus. |
| 03:10.43 | dmj726 | Step 2: Write the virus. |
| 03:10.43 | dmj726 | Step 3: Exectute the virus. |
| 03:10.43 | dmj726 | You have successfully been infected by a linux virus. |
| 03:10.43 | aep | lame |
| 03:11.06 | kurtan | :D |
| 03:11.14 | CutMeOwnThroat | and there was that infamous un*x worm which forced a shutdown of the internet |
| 03:11.15 | kurtan | thats the proper way to do it |
| 03:11.26 | Termana | I wonder weather they have patched Maemo 5 up so that you can't execute rm -rf / - like Ubuntu has done |
| 03:11.36 | zelrikriando | There is software to find vulnerabilities on any platform now |
| 03:11.49 | Termana | sudo rm -rf / rather |
| 03:12.13 | zelrikriando | If you find a vulnerability, you write a virus which exploits it |
| 03:12.16 | zelrikriando | then you re done |
| 03:12.19 | CutMeOwnThroat | dmj726, my theory for the lack of linux viruses is, that all the people who would write one learn rather quickly, that they get much more appreciation and positive feedback, if they indeed use their skills in one open-source project or other... |
| 03:12.23 | kurtan | CutMeOwnThroat: i have downloaded internetz to my 5.25" floppy |

| 03:13.15 | aep | CutMeOwnThroat: because theres some propriatary stuff |
| 03:13.16 | CutMeOwnThroat | aep, you might not be able to get all hardware to work, though... |
| 03:13.17 | kurtan | :) |
| 03:13.26 | aep | yeah that was my concern :( |
| 03:13.30 | dmj726 | Previous NITs have |
| 03:13.53 | dmj726 | Ubuntu ARM might not let you make calls |
| 03:13.54 | Termana | dmj726: Yes mer "works". They are still saying its "not ready" yet. But I would wait for .17 anyway, when the new interfaces and Maemo 5 stuff is coming |
| 03:14.19 | dmj726 | I'm probably not going to bother with Mer for a while. |
| 03:14.45 | aep | i wonder if i could build a shell only phone. heh. propably worth nothing, but nice for the "ITS HACKABLE" feeling |
| 03:15.04 | kurtan | haha |
| 03:15.19 | luke-jr | aep: my N810 is mostly shell only |
| 03:15.20 | kurtan | until then, n900 is the shiat |
| 03:15.22 | Termana | dmj726: If the TI drivers get released the Nokia N8*0s will get the N900 interface, otherwise they will get a qtablet interface. |
| 03:15.40 | Termana | dmj726: From mer that is |
| 03:15.42 | dmj726 | I'm not especially concerned about the OMG closed drivers thing...unless the closed drivers don't work, in which case I hate on them for not letting me fix it. |
| 03:15.43 | Termana | For* |
| 03:15.55 | aep | luke-jr: well that doesnt have phone functions. the trick would be to call people from the shell :D |
| 03:15.58 | luke-jr | dmj726: the N810 closed blobs don't work well |
| 03:16.09 | dmj726 | In that case, the TI drivers really should be released |
| 03:16.15 | luke-jr | aep: I plan to do just that when/if I ever find a decent Linux-capable phone |
| 03:16.18 | aep | i think there is even software to do it. i just wonder how the hardware drivers are coupled to the system |
| 03:16.31 | aep | luke-jr: well the n900 isnt? :( |
| 03:16.36 | luke-jr | aep: no, N900 is GSM |

| 03:20.54 | Termana | aep - I don't think anyone knows yet |

| 03:21.34 | Termana | aep - sorry I thought you were talking about something else :P |
| 03:21.34 | luke-jr | but Boost Mobile is iDEN, so their SIM cards won't work in N900 :( |

| 03:28.15 | Termana | luke-jr: Slower than GPRS? When I'm on my Nokia N810 I have my 3G broadband SIM in a 2G phone and bluetooth it to my N810 - so its GPRS speeds. |
| 03:28.32 | luke-jr | Termana: I think about 128kbps? |
| 03:28.42 | zelrikriando | Termana: yup |
| 03:29.30 | zelrikriando | Termana: I am a quite disapointed, it's quite unresponsive...maybe it's because I am installing custom roms I am not sure |
| 03:29.49 | GeneralAntilles | zelrikriando, why an Android phone and not an N900? |
| 03:30.02 | Termana | luke-jr: 128kbps is faster than GPRS. GPRS is only dial up speed, its like average 30kbps |
| 03:30.27 | zelrikriando | GeneralAntilles: Back in the day, android was the only viable 'open' mobile platform |
| 03:30.27 | luke-jr | I think I'm wrong :p |
| 03:31.23 | zelrikriando | the n900 was anounced maybe 2 or 3 months after I got my phone |
| 03:31.28 | Termana | zelrikriando: What type of Android phone did you get? |
| 03:31.37 | zelrikriando | Termana: the HTC Magic |
| 03:31.47 | zelrikriando | I tried a few custom roms on it though |
| 03:32.04 | Termana | Doesn't look too bad |
| 03:32.47 | Termana | I hate to say it though, but are any of these android phones or the n900/future maemo phones ever really going to take market share back from apple? |
| 03:32.47 | zelrikriando | Yeah it's ok |
| 03:33.23 | Termana | marketshare* |
| 03:33.24 | zelrikriando | I think Apple is there to stay for a while |
| 03:33.31 | zelrikriando | but their market share will saturate |
| 03:33.37 | zelrikriando | not everybody likes them |
| 03:34.25 | Termana | I hate their coolness factor. Theres just so much cool around them, you almost feel disappointed having a linux phone/mobile internet device |
| 03:35.03 | zelrikriando | One thing they do get right |
| 03:35.10 | zelrikriando | is responsiveness |
| 03:35.32 | zelrikriando | that thing feels like it anticipates your actions |
| 03:35.33 | aep | wow is the accelerometer really that acurate that you can play games with it? |
| 03:35.51 | aep | the quake3 demo is impressive |
| 03:36.06 | zelrikriando | I played games with that |
| 03:36.14 | Termana | aep - i thought that would of been a major reason to chuck in an accelerometer |
| 03:36.19 | zelrikriando | it's like a Wii-mote |
| 03:36.31 | aep | i never tryed a weemote |
| 03:36.49 | aep | but if this actually works, it would make up for the lack of a d pad |
| 03:37.02 | zelrikriando | aep: it really does |
| 03:37.25 | aep | nice stuff going on. |
| 03:37.28 | zelrikriando | and most android devices have a trackball |
| 03:37.36 | aep | eyes his old dusty nokia e series |
| 03:37.42 | zelrikriando | which can be potentially uses in games |
| 03:37.48 | aep | oh yeah well android... |
| 03:38.06 | zelrikriando | The iphone has like 1 bouton |
| 03:38.10 | aep | i'm not so into technology unless i can hack it |
| 03:38.45 | zelrikriando | android is quite hackable :p |
| 03:38.57 | aep | is it? |
| 03:39.08 | Termana | I'm worried Maemo will be left in the dust for the popularity of Android |
| 03:39.16 | zelrikriando | aep: my phone is rooted, and the kernel changed |

| 03:40.51 | zelrikriando | is pretty disapointing |
| 03:41.54 | aep | android can deliver a billion java apps. it won't make it more marketable. maemo has taken up some serious sell points fro both consumer and geek |
| 03:42.00 | aep | which is imo key to sell any technology |
| 03:42.07 | zelrikriando | If any manufacturer can do something good with it, it s HTC |
| 03:42.37 | aep | HTC should stay windows mobile imo. its a good market for them |
| 03:42.39 | zelrikriando | aep: Android is not Java only |
| 03:42.46 | luke-jr | zelrikriando: since when? |
| 03:42.55 | zelrikriando | luke-jr: since it s C++ too |
| 03:42.58 | aep | yeah i know, but they're all hyped about the fact thats its so java optimized |
| 03:43.06 | luke-jr | aep: HTC should port Linux to one of their good phones |
| 03:43.17 | aep | which is totally useless, as it covers only a limited portion of geeks |
| 03:43.28 | aep | luke-jr: or that, but thats a drastical change |
| 03:43.38 | aep | and if any linux, they're going to do a cripled one like android |
| 03:43.48 | luke-jr | I don't care, as long as Linux is ported |
| 03:43.55 | aep | hehe |
| 03:44.04 | luke-jr | just un-patch Android and use it w/ Gentoo... |
| 03:44.11 | aep | it should in fact run. the hardware is not that new |
| 03:44.21 | luke-jr | aep: by good phone, I mean Touch Pro 2 |
| 03:44.26 | luke-jr | which is pretty new |
| 03:44.30 | aep | oh. dont know that one |
| 03:44.35 | zelrikriando | Android is pretty far away from the spirit of Linux though |
| 03:44.40 | zelrikriando | Google really changed stuff |
| 03:44.49 | luke-jr | zelrikriando: Android is at least partly in mainline now :/ |
| 03:44.55 | luke-jr | under staging |
| 03:45.28 | aep | well if it runs the kernel, you can likely hack it to run a gnu/linux distro which is good |
| 03:45.40 | aep | but i'd be to lazy |
| 03:45.50 | luke-jr | aep: I want to run KDE 4.3 |
| 03:45.57 | luke-jr | with a shell script to use the phone |
| 03:46.11 | aep | well to each their own |
| 03:46.18 | aep | n900 should be able to do that |
| 03:46.19 | zelrikriando | I dont like KDE |
| 03:46.44 | luke-jr | aep: N900 is too closed for me :p |
| 03:46.47 | luke-jr | and again, GSM |
| 03:46.51 | aep | hm i wonder if it can run xmonad :D |
| 03:47.00 | aep | whats closed on it? i dont have it yet |
| 03:47.02 | zelrikriando | one thing though with Android, is google sync |
| 03:47.07 | zelrikriando | if you dont have a google account |
| 03:47.12 | zelrikriando | the phone wont do shit |
| 03:47.13 | luke-jr | aep: battery charger, phone stack, 3D, etc |
| 03:47.29 | aep | 3d is opengl es. what more open do you need? |
| 03:47.36 | luke-jr | aep: it's a blob |
| 03:47.56 | aep | and who cares about the gdm driver as long as you get a real model device |
| 03:48.02 | luke-jr | ... |
| 03:48.10 | aep | well i don't at least |
| 03:48.16 | luke-jr | aep: the entire point of GNU/Linux is a free OS |
| 03:48.31 | aep | i'm not a gnuist. |
| 03:48.33 | luke-jr | might as well run WinCE then |
| 03:48.38 | aep | nope |
| 03:48.57 | aep | a little open wins over closed |
| 03:49.01 | Termana | luke-jr: Have you ever considered contacting RMS and asking to be his side-kick. Fighting closed source crime. |
| 03:49.25 | luke-jr | I don't especially like RMS. |
| 03:49.37 | aep | i run closed source nvidia drivers on desktop happily. i'd buy amd if it was open, but since it's not, i'm ok with something that works |
| 03:49.47 | luke-jr | aep: AMD/ATi *is* open |
| 03:49.57 | aep | since when? :D |
| 03:50.07 | luke-jr | aep: years and years ago |
| 03:50.10 | luke-jr | maybe even a decade |
| 03:50.16 | luke-jr | though for a while there it was only their oldest cards |
| 03:50.44 | aep | well i only checked for the high end cards and you needed a very bad closed source driver a year ago |
| 03:50.56 | luke-jr | sure, they have a blob that supports their Digital Restrictions Management, but just 3D accel works fine w/ open drivers |
| 03:51.04 | aep | on the other hand the nvidia driver was closed too but at least works fine |
| 03:51.26 | aep | hm does that mean ati stopped sucking? |
| 03:51.28 | luke-jr | a year ago the newest stuff was probably beta |
| 03:52.27 | luke-jr | aep: personally, the Radeon 9200 worked just fine until the new stuff was usable |
| 03:52.46 | luke-jr | I'm sure probably better than the N900's GLES |
| 03:52.50 | aep | and its open ? nice |
| 03:53.16 | luke-jr | 9200 has been open since at least before X.org |
| 03:53.52 | aep | i dont know which is which. havent looked into ati for over a year |
| 03:54.30 | aep | i care about games, and the open source drivers i know have inferiour to no 3d accel |
| 03:54.37 | zelrikriando | I am not even sure anybody I know use ati |
| 03:54.39 | aep | well, had |
| 03:54.54 | luke-jr | 9200 would be OpenGL 1.4 generation |
| 03:55.51 | luke-jr | On September 12, 2007, AMD released documentation for the RV630 (Radeon HD 2600 PRO and Radeon HD 2600 XT) and M56 (Radeon Mobility X1600) chips for open source driver development, for its strategic open source driver development initiative |

| 09:49.22 | cehteh | linux yes, gnu no |
| 09:49.25 | Termana | They both have a linux kernel |
| 09:49.38 | SpeedEvil | Though you can just about have a non-gnu 'normal' linux system |
| 09:49.53 | cehteh | they are not even a 'normal' system |

| 09:50.36 | thux | if you do diff is there lot of dfferences? |
| 09:50.48 | cehteh | btw does andoid use an xserver or framebuffer? |
| 09:50.49 | Corsac | SpeedEvil: even the kernel is crippled |
| 09:51.06 | Termana | Personally, I favour having a normal linux system available rather than having to have apps run on top of a CHANGED java runtime |
| 09:51.19 | cehteh | thux: yes very much andoid is all in a crippled java vm |
| 09:51.33 | cehteh | its a complete different platform than any common linux system you know |
| 09:51.49 | cehteh | the only thing is that they needed some kernel and used linux for that |
| 09:51.54 | thux | but both run same devices? |
| 09:52.25 | cehteh | andoid programs are specially rigged java programs |
| 09:52.57 | cehteh | because of the linux kernel you can put an andoid platform on same or similar hardware like maemo |
| 09:53.03 | Termana | Anyone think maybe they just used Linux as a part-marketing scheme part-build-on-top-of-a-already-built-foundation-cause-we-can't-be-stuffed-to-make-something-new? |
| 09:53.08 | cehteh | but the platform becomes very different |

| 09:53.22 | SpeedEvil | Termana: no. |
| 09:53.33 | SpeedEvil | Termana: I think they utterly don't care about linux as linux. |
| 09:53.56 | cehteh | porting android programs to maemo would be a complete rewrite |
| 09:53.58 | SpeedEvil | Termana: The number of people that buy it becasue it's linux are - if the project goes right - statistically insignificant |
| 09:54.02 | SpeedEvil | cehteh: well - no. |
| 09:54.09 | cehteh | well almost |
| 09:54.15 | SpeedEvil | cehteh: It would be a android API emulator and JVM |
| 09:54.28 | cehteh | no such thing yet for maemo |
| 09:54.32 | Termana | Either way, Google are just taking Linux shiz and crippling it. First Android and now of course they want to release a linux OS that is JUST a browser. |
| 09:54.38 | mikhas | would programs written for android run in a normal JVM? |
| 09:54.53 | Termana | mikhas - doubtful |
| 09:54.54 | cehteh | is the android jvm free software? |
| 09:55.20 | cehteh | SpeedEvil: i rather wonder if one could run a android in parallel to maemo .. but i dont really care much |
| 09:55.21 | mikhas | Termana, for most people that might be enough, a browser-based OS. See what the game consoles come with, and appearently the consumers are happy. |

| 10:09.20 | dmj7261 | By the way, with regard to Google and Android being rather closed and incompatible. I suspect that there are a significant number (can't say how many) of Google employees who *do* care about openness. However, Google is a slave to its business model. This is not a justification for the shortcomings of Android, but just a thought before people say that the people at Google don't care about openness. |

| 10:25.07 | tekonivel | also, i would say a lot of the smartphone market is quite saturated already; ppl who are inclined to get a smartphone (you can call them "internet in your pocket" if u wish), already have an apple product |
| 10:25.18 | tekonivel | dmj7261: t though |
| 10:25.32 | tekonivel | dmj7261: but apple did it, with fascism |
| 10:25.35 | Termana | If you read Engadget they seem to be huge Apple fans, but the App Store rejections seem to be getting the best of them |
| 10:25.53 | tekonivel | dmj7261: but surely openness is *a* path to success |
| 10:26.14 | dmj7261 | Openness is a path to success, or can be if done right |
| 10:26.21 | Termana | If theres an app store rejection and its not featured on Engadget, strike me down! |
| 10:26.28 | dmj7261 | Whatever way to success you take, you have to do it right. |
| 10:26.52 | tekonivel | also many sorts of openneess exist. f.ex. even if the platform is open source, but hard to install programs on, it's not open |
| 10:27.29 | dmj7261 | A lot of times an early platform leader will be closed, but open (loosely defined) competitors often have the advantage as the market matures. |
| 10:27.43 | tekonivel | dmj7261: yeah, exactly, but there are also external factors, f.ex. what the competitors are doing (or saying they are doing) and whta the market is like |
| 10:27.54 | dmj7261 | Windows could be considered an open *platform* |
| 10:28.14 | Termana | Lets face it - the consumer doesn't really care weather its open or not. They care about things like "coolness" - this is why Apple products are popular. It's also why the Droid seems to be becoming popular, it looks sleek, stylish and cool. |
| 10:28.21 | tekonivel | personally i'm doubtful Maemo will fly. i hope i'm wrong, since i'm getting one! :) |

| 12:16.59 | Jaffa | Anidel: Anything? |
| 12:17.08 | Anidel | like E61 |
| 12:17.37 | Jaffa | and then reboot connected via USB? |

| 19:59.30 | Dantonic | :) |
| 19:59.33 | `0660 | some forums have a set of rules, which helps to decide who to ban |
| 19:59.38 | serenity | i'm using maemo in scratchbox. I'm i allowed to publish videos/screencasts of it, concerning Nokias EULA |
| 20:00.32 | thephilosopher | Stskeeps: i dont have one , i am still hesitating with the droid |

| 20:01.16 | pwnguin | Dantonic: i posted the link to ask how reliable it was. so far the answer is "not very" |
| 20:01.18 | pupnik_ | serenity, if your screencast is to show how much it sucks, maybe not. |
| 20:01.20 | serenity | Stskeeps: is advertisement for nokia, sure. But i dunno if there is a paragraph |

| 20:01.32 | lcuk | that is the first time in the history of t.m.o that i have seen unity |

| 20:02.35 | javispedro | on any video showing their closed GUI stuff etc |
| 20:02.40 | javispedro | AFAIU, since IANAL. |
| 20:02.49 | Stskeeps | serenity: is it for a commercial purpose? |
| 20:02.58 | serenity | Stskeeps: no, just to show off |
| 20:03.06 | pupnik_ | like Ford Motors threatening an owners club for posting pictures of their cars in the net |
| 20:03.12 | Stskeeps | serenity: then i think you should be OK.. the nitpicking issue would be artwork |
| 20:03.16 | pupnik_ | i think ford even won a court case |

| 20:03.22 | Stskeeps | thephilosopher: ovi maps |
| 20:03.30 | Stskeeps | thephilosopher: keep in mind that there are alternatives from community |
| 20:03.37 | Stskeeps | so you aren't locked to that app |
| 20:03.47 | pwnguin | pupnik_: video game screenshots are apparently copyrighted by the game maker |
| 20:04.10 | pupnik_ | right, clearly, but there is fair use |
| 20:04.22 | lcuk | in which country? |
| 20:04.44 | javispedro | yeah, at least here we don't have fair use. |
| 20:04.47 | Dantonic | man Ovi needs to compete with googlemaps on android don't you think? |
| 20:04.48 | pupnik_ | ok |

| 20:05.06 | javispedro | (and that's the reason the spanish wikipedia is nearly stripped of any image) |
| 20:05.08 | thephilosopher | Stskeeps: dont get wrong but usually community apps sucks |
| 20:05.16 | RST38h | Telling this to us is somewhat academic |
| 20:05.19 | Stskeeps | thephilosopher: in this particular case, ovi maps suck more.. |
| 20:05.20 | Stskeeps | :P |

| 20:05.44 | pwnguin | i haven't seen ovi, but my general impression is that vendor supplied software typically sucks |
| 20:06.02 | javispedro | kisses his N810 for no reason |
| 20:06.03 | Stskeeps | thephilosopher: but you probably wouldn't get a objective opinion about community software here :P |
| 20:06.36 | pupnik_ | n810 feels incomperable. dunno if such a device will come again soon |
| 20:06.47 | RST38h | Dantonic: And can you guess my opinion? =) |
| 20:06.51 | Dantonic | thephilosopher, I felt the same first impact: Community software sucks. But I've since changed my mind |

| 20:14.43 | pwnguin | thephilosopher: you say you're generalizing, but i think the general tendency of closed commercial software is just as bad |
| 20:14.51 | Shapeshifter | also, the n900 again got cheaper here :) Now at ~466 euros |

| 20:15.18 | Shapeshifter | Quite lucky. |
| 20:15.20 | lcuk | thephilosopher, early in december, there is a maemo long weekend with a specific UX meets code hackfest emphasis. |
| 20:15.32 | Dantonic | RST38h, really??! Is gnuite willing to share the effort in regards to that? (Sorry I'm not a programmer) so that others in the community might get in on it... |
| 20:15.36 | cehteh | damn i dont want a swiss keybaord :P |
| 20:15.37 | Dantonic | unless he's already working on it :P |
| 20:15.46 | Shapeshifter | cehteh: ^^ |
| 20:15.47 | lcuk | some of Nokias heaviest UX designers will be on hand to liase with the open source community to devise and help with maemo related OSS projects |
| 20:15.48 | lcuk | http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo-Barcelona_Long_Weekend |
| 20:15.49 | Shapeshifter | cehteh: paint them all black. |
| 20:16.20 | RST38h | Dantonic: Maemo Mapper sources are open afaik |
| 20:16.23 | lcuk | what you say about a general tendency is true, but Nokia are firmly ontop of this and are on hand to help out |
| 20:16.24 | RST38h | Dantonic: So? |
| 20:16.36 | cehteh | hehe .. well swiss keyboard are the worst ones for a german, familar but slightly off enough to confuse one completely .. |
| 20:16.43 | Shapeshifter | ^^ |
| 20:16.59 | cehteh | but i dont know if they localized the n900 for swiss |
| 20:16.59 | Shapeshifter | "damn where's the "!" ?!?!" |
| 20:17.13 | serenity | rumour: when android 2.0 with turn-by-turn navigation is available in more than 5 countries, nokia will offer ovi maps navigation also for free |
| 20:17.27 | Dantonic | RST38h, "So?" about what? |
| 20:17.32 | flounder | On a N900 would it be possible to block data transfer across the cell network and only allow it when connect to wifi? This way you could have a standard cell plan (no data) and only do data transfer when connected to wifi which is available most everywhere now? |
| 20:17.45 | lcuk | flounder, sure |
| 20:17.49 | Shapeshifter | still, google navigation with street view enabled is uber-sweet |
| 20:17.50 | RST38h | Dantonic: So, you are volunteering to add voice recognition to Maeom Mapper or what? |
| 20:17.52 | lcuk | just dont configure the 3g data side |
| 20:17.59 | lcuk | i had a normal sim that wouldnt connect properly |
| 20:18.06 | Dantonic | RST38h, well what could I do to help? |
| 20:18.07 | Shapeshifter | at least, it looks like that. But I wonder how the bandwidth on a phone should keep up with downloading street view images. |
| 20:18.09 | lcuk | i could call and sms but no data for ages |
| 20:18.42 | flounder | lcuk, thanks for the info. |
| 20:18.47 | Stskeeps | yeah, reggie started deleting script threads |

| 20:19.00 | Dantonic | Shapeshifter, well so far on maemo-mapper it keeps up fine... |
| 20:19.18 | RST38h | Dantonic: Whip out the Scratchbox and start coding? |

| 20:22.57 | pwnguin | first lesson in open source: suggestions are worthless. patches are priceless. |
| 20:22.58 | RST38h | Mmm, I guess you could ask that question differently |
| 20:23.20 | RST38h | Dantonic: You could ask "Is there anyone willing to add voice recognition to Maemo Mapper?" |
| 20:23.33 | RST38h | Dantonic: And then answer to this question is "no". |
| 20:23.38 | DantonicN800 | all right sure |
| 20:23.48 | pwnguin | DantonicN800: if you're a student, you might consider summer of code |

| 20:35.21 | crashanddie | what would you do that for? |
| 20:35.25 | DantonicN800 | pwnguin, well, one of my first statements was that I am not a programmer. as far as I am concerned the creation of maemomapper is an impossible task. I have basically no understanding of how libraries work, and i've guessed they are like subroutines of code with certain functionality (the wheel doesn't have to be reinvented.) So it didn't sound unrealistic to me that people who can code something such as MM could implement somethin |
| 20:35.25 | DantonicN800 | g like that. |

| 20:41.10 | crashanddie | Hydroxide, why would nokiausa.com have shipped before any other website? |
| 20:41.15 | pwnguin | crashanddie: as i understand it, if you bill a credit card you have 30 days to deliver or it's basically fraud |
| 20:41.23 | SpeedEvil | pwnguin: not true. |
| 20:41.25 | crashanddie | pwnguin, bollocks |
| 20:41.30 | pwnguin | maybe nokia didnt bill until they shipped |
| 20:41.43 | jebbajeb | pwnguin: well, they likely haven't charged the cards yet... |
| 20:41.45 | Hydroxide | crashanddie: in theory Nokia has started shipping from the factories in korea to stores and distributors and such. I think nokia has some exclusivity before others get it. but that's not actually related to what my question was |
| 20:41.47 | lcuk | they have 30 days to ship it if that was the terms of the product you purchased |
| 20:41.52 | SpeedEvil | pwnguin: If you explicitly explain to th user what's happening, and give them the opportinity to cancel, they can ship years later |
| 20:41.57 | lcuk | if you buy a product that says "will be delivered at the end of time" |
| 20:42.02 | pwnguin | SpeedEvil: on a credit card? |
| 20:42.03 | lcuk | then thats what you are buying |
| 20:42.06 | DantonicN800 | Hydroxide, what he means is don't ask questions he thinks are stupid |
| 20:42.10 | SpeedEvil | pwnguin: If you say 'it's in stock' - they have to deliver within 30 days. |

| 20:42.37 | lcuk | SpeedEvil, no, if the site has a 30 day term and they break it then yeah |
| 20:42.38 | pwnguin | SpeedEvil: perhaps you can explain this to open pandora's lawyers |
| 20:42.39 | SpeedEvil | (the UK nokia store has not - for me at least - reported that they are shipping my order on the 20th. |

| 20:54.06 | crashanddie | actually, is there any of the usual irc club that hasn't asked me to watch my language? |
| 20:54.24 | crashanddie | Shapeshifter, actually, the majority of people in that discussion have an n900 ;) |
| 20:54.26 | Chani | er... my n900 is only listing my skype-skype contacts... not my skype-phone contacts |

| 20:54.40 | Shapeshifter | :P |

| 21:47.53 | Shapeshifter | and the design in general is quite ugly I think. |
| 21:51.44 | jebbajeb | so what i'm building needs unicode-data package. This isn't in fremantle, but is in lenny. Can I just grab the lenny .deb and use it or do I have to rebuild unicode-data too? (it is a noarch package, not i386 nor arm) |
| 21:51.45 | pupnik_ | the image quality of n900s (on those pro beamers) at summit 2009 was incredible. |
| 21:52.24 | pupnik_ | noarch means you do not rebuild |
| 21:52.47 | Shapeshifter | I'm wondering about how the "public" will pick up the n900. I've got a feeling it's going to be bashed hard. |
| 21:53.30 | pupnik_ | after seeing how the public votes, i dont feel bad if they dont understand a good thing |
| 21:53.39 | crashanddie | jebbajeb, a python or sh script would be noarch, for example |
| 21:54.28 | pupnik_ | and the -data in the darn package name implies... |
| 21:54.38 | jebbajeb | crashanddie: ya, this is just unicode data, noarch for sure. I'm rebuilding it anyway, just to get the hang of it ;) |

| 22:08.51 | javispedro | why you say that? |
| 22:09.29 | Shapeshifter | ? |
| 22:09.42 | javispedro | what makes you say that? |
| 22:09.43 | Stskeeps | 's n900 charges just like he charges overnight. |
| 22:10.16 | Shapeshifter | javispedro: people reporting that they can use it through a day including some surfing and stuff without it dying. |
| 22:10.19 | javispedro | i'm used to a two day charge cycle and even that seems a bit on the low side. |
| 22:10.37 | cehteh | how long does it take to charge it on the charger .. and how long on a normal usb port? |
| 22:10.38 | Shapeshifter | well yeah, it's not much, but if it lasts a day thats acceptable |
| 22:10.49 | javispedro | only a day with "some surfing" and you consider that impressive? |
| 22:10.52 | Shapeshifter | less then a day of heavy use would be unusable |
| 22:11.05 | Shapeshifter | javispedro: not impressive, I said "not a problem" |
| 22:11.16 | CoreFusion- | just carry the usb-charger with you.. problem solved? |
| 22:11.28 | Chani | almost drained it yesterday |
| 22:11.32 | Shapeshifter | CoreFusion-: what, do I have a usb plug on my butt? >.> |

| 22:11.53 | Shapeshifter | or what use is taking the usb charger with you |
| 22:12.09 | CoreFusion- | shapeshifter: what? you don't have access to an usb port at any time of the day? |
| 22:12.17 | Shapeshifter | CoreFusion-: no I dont >.> |
| 22:12.25 | javispedro | I do |
| 22:12.27 | Shapeshifter | why would I need a "mobile computer" if I had a real computer all the time |
| 22:12.31 | Mek | disabling wifi powersaving makes it drain rather quickly, but unfortunately that is the only way I seem to be able to keep it somewhat connected to the wifi here at home... fortunately charging it is no problem when I'm home |
| 22:12.36 | Chani | CoreFusion-: sadly they're not installing them in forests or at beaches yet |

| 22:13.50 | Shapeshifter | I'm wondering if I should sign that extra insurance for my n900. Costs 120$ for one year but they pay for every kind of damage like dropping the phone, scratching the display hard, water damage, all the stuff that is usually not covered |

| 23:17.56 | javispedro | from what I know at least. |

| 23:19.19 | GeneralAntilles | javispedro, that's also with cellular, IM, GPS, etc. |

| 23:25.31 | Shapeshifter | recalcati: it's more about if the n900 can do it in general |
| 23:25.42 | cehteh | recalcati: well since you want a monitor that means you have a power outlet available or? |
| 23:25.43 | Shapeshifter | I've only ever heard rumours about it being "possible to hack in" or whatever |
| 23:25.47 | cehteh | plugin the charger and fine |
| 23:25.59 | recalcati | if you read the wiki I imagine to replace its battery with a bigger one, but, anyway, I have to try it before. |
| 23:26.17 | cehteh | i am rather scared by PAL resolution for working ... that sux :P |
| 23:27.18 | recalcati | cehteh: yes, Iknow, but we'll have 1080p with the nect device, even if omap3 can manage easily 720p |
| 23:28.07 | cehteh | http://nokiaexperts.com/nokia-n900-tips-bluetooth-keyboard-external-display/ |
| 23:28.10 | recalcati | I image to resize 567i to 720p, should be really nice, but it will require more energy |
| 23:28.28 | pupnik_ | do we have a "locate" that can use crawler data? |
| 23:28.41 | cehteh | recalcati: i dont know the video out specs .. but with a simple composite cable you dont get much more than pal .. at a bad quality |
| 23:28.42 | pupnik_ | or is that another project idea? |
| 23:28.50 | Shapeshifter | so... from what I'm reading the n900 is USB host capable but it's not certified because it can't go together with usb charging so it's not oficially implemented in any way or what? |
| 23:29.27 | pupnik_ | right |
| 23:29.36 | cehteh | is Xephyr available on mameo / n900? |
| 23:30.12 | pupnik_ | what for? |
| 23:30.15 | Shapeshifter | But, is it being implemented unofficially? Will it work? |
| 23:30.26 | cehteh | often work that way that he exports a emacs window via wlan to his desktop ... |
| 23:31.21 | pupnik_ | this is #maemo irc, emacs is another OS ;) |
| 23:31.28 | cehteh | instead just one app one could export a whole session with xephyr there :) .. yes mad idea |
| 23:31.30 | GeneralAntilles | Shapeshifter, it CAN go together with charging. |
| 23:31.33 | GeneralAntilles | Shapeshifter, but I think there were some issues. |
| 23:31.45 | cehteh | pupnik_: well maybe i replace maemo with emacs someday |
| 23:32.02 | GeneralAntilles | Shapeshifter, but there were some issues so they were just going to ship unofficial support |
| 23:32.17 | GeneralAntilles | and apparently the USB consortium said "No, either it works, or you break it." |
| 23:32.27 | pupnik_ | does emacs have an ebay auction monitor yet? |
| 23:32.41 | cehteh | pupnik_: not sure, but likely |
| 23:33.28 | Shapeshifter | GeneralAntilles: so they broke it? |
| 23:33.42 | GeneralAntilles | Shapeshifter, that's the impression I'm under. |
| 23:33.48 | Shapeshifter | :'( |
| 23:33.56 | cehteh | anyways what i wanted to say: exporting x11 over wlan works well |
| 23:33.59 | GeneralAntilles | They had to do something to make it difficult to use or else they wouldn't have been able to call whatever they put in there USB. |
| 23:34.02 | recalcati | vpbe (video processing back end) cpu interface is capable of 720p, see http://tiexpressdsp.com/index.php/FAQ_OMAP35x_Linux_PSP |
| 23:34.06 | cehteh | better than TV out prolly |
| 23:34.11 | GeneralAntilles | So, basically, the USB consortium isn't actually out to protect consumers. ;) |
| 23:34.28 | Shapeshifter | yeah |
| 23:34.55 | recalcati | the main Texas wiki site is http://wiki.davincidsp.com |
| 23:35.04 | pupnik_ | cehteh, maemo has freenx client qtnx |
| 23:35.22 | timeless_mbp | help |
| 23:35.25 | timeless_mbp | GeneralAntilles: ping |
| 23:35.26 | cehteh | i bet we will see n900 docking stations soonafter .. with keyboard, monitor and maybe disk :) |
| 23:35.31 | GeneralAntilles | timeless_mbp, pong? |
| 23:35.32 | timeless_mbp | didn't someone file a bug about the ok/cancel buttons in gmail? |
| 23:35.34 | timeless_mbp | i can't find it |
| 23:35.40 | Shapeshifter | I hope nokia just cut a line on the board and printed "solder here" on the board for everyone to enable it |
| 23:35.45 | GeneralAntilles | Dunno, I'm not familiar with the issue |
| 23:35.53 | GeneralAntilles | and I haven't been tracking recent changes well lately. |
| 23:35.54 | timeless_mbp | https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5130 |
| 23:35.55 | povbot | Bug 5130: Use of "yes/no" in JavaScript confirmation dialogues is confusing |
| 23:36.19 | pupnik_ | any electrical engineers wanna peek at that fm transmitter? mine can transmit 20 centimeters |
| 23:36.40 | pupnik_ | on a good frequency |
| 23:36.58 | cehteh | extra battery packs connected to the usb port should be also quite easy to build |
| 23:37.05 | pupnik_ | or is this another blessing of government for us |
| 23:37.45 | pupnik_ | or purchase |
| 23:38.06 | recalcati | cehteh: please explain better... |
| 23:38.07 | pupnik_ | !g "powered usb hub" |
| 23:38.24 | recalcati | Where can I buy it? |
| 23:38.40 | cehteh | recalcati: i meant rather self build |
| 23:38.46 | pupnik_ | dealextreme.com has some new ones in for aboit 7 dollars |
| 23:38.59 | pupnik_ | usb battery packs that is |
| 23:39.21 | recalcati | cehteh: ok, but I'm afradi that the original battery can suffer for several recharging |
| 23:39.31 | cehteh | get some battery pack, some DCDC voltage regulator, a 200ohms resistor and a mini usb plug and don |
| 23:39.52 | pupnik_ | original nokia batteries for n900 can be found for 14 eu i think |
| 23:39.57 | recalcati | cehteh: A good way to destroy the N900, or not? |
| 23:39.58 | cehteh | recalcati: its not *that* expensive |
| 23:40.04 | cehteh | no why? |
| 23:40.28 | pupnik_ | why risk it. tur off, swap battery. buy external charger |
| 23:40.35 | cehteh | you can prolly operate it completely on external power ... just keep the internal battery there because the device needs it |
| 23:40.55 | cehteh | pupnik_: whats the risk? |
| 23:41.01 | pupnik_ | you will lug around an ugly mess instead of one slim spare battery |
| 23:41.16 | pupnik_ | risk looking like a loser at the cafe |
| 23:41.18 | recalcati | nothing, I'm not goood with hw, but I remember something about voltage transient |
| 23:41.44 | cehteh | what does the original charger do? |
| 23:41.51 | recalcati | thx, you are all very very kind, my wiki is now better |
| 23:42.02 | cehteh | or actually usb chargers are standardized by now |
| 23:42.48 | pupnik_ | usb trickle-charges, charger quick-charges |
| 23:43.01 | cehteh | specs are open and selfbuild or from other vendor things have to be compatible when fullfil the specs |
| 23:43.27 | pupnik_ | i would buy nokia due to n900 being so dear |
| 23:43.38 | Macer | anybody here good with dns ? |
| 23:44.26 | Macer | _xmpp-server._tcp.yourdomain.com zimbraserver.yourdomain.com |
| 23:44.29 | Macer | that doesn't seem right |
| 23:44.34 | recalcati | thx, Im going bed. See you next time. |
| 23:44.36 | Macer | i don't understand where that would go |
| 23:44.56 | cehteh | goes to bed too |

| 23:50.45 | yigal | where do I purchase an n900 as a US customer nokia or amazon, http://www.amazon.com/Nokia-N900-Unlocked-Computer-Touchscreen/dp/B002OB49SW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1258242599&sr=8-1 or is there a reliable bargain store? |
| 23:52.51 | yigal | well it's obviously cheaper on amazon, hmm I wonder when the device will arrive |
| 23:53.46 | Xisdibik | yigal: Dell also sells it apparently for cheaper than amazon and nokia |
| 23:53.54 | Xisdibik | yigal: i have my preordered with Amazon myself though |
| 23:53.59 | luke-jr | yigal: you realize GSM service is a ripoff in the US? |
| 23:54.23 | Xisdibik | luke-jr: 99% of stuff is a rip off in the US |
| 23:54.24 | yigal | luke-jr: what should I do about it, move to Europe? |
| 23:54.32 | luke-jr | Xisdibik: lol |
| 23:54.37 | *** join/#maemo treitter (n=treitter@c-98-210-72-59.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) |
| 23:54.48 | luke-jr | yigal: dunno, I'm hoping to get Linux on a HTC Touch Pro 2 personally |
| 23:55.04 | luke-jr | yigal: or might just tether a cheap Bluetooth phone w/ Pandora, dunno |
| 23:55.11 | yigal | luke-jr: I wanted linux on a viliv ex 70 |
| 23:55.18 | yigal | but that isn't going to happen |
| 23:55.26 | luke-jr | why not? |
| 23:55.35 | yigal | the touchscreen drivers |
| 23:55.37 | Xisdibik | luke-jr: because of his attitude ;) |
| 23:55.39 | yigal | it's always the same |
| 23:56.04 | yigal | basically anything that would be an incredible device with linux is not in reality linux capable |
| 23:56.56 | yigal | I've studied for over two weeks umpc mids on umpcportal, and I've come to the conclusion that the n900 is the best choice |
| 23:57.35 | yigal | I'm already comfortable and impressed with maemo, it's a nice environment functional on a tablet, and integrating this on a phone is a nice idea |
| 23:58.15 | yigal | in any event sorry for being so loquacious |
| 23:58.50 | luke-jr | yigal: 2 weeks is nothing :p |
