| 00:01.13 | DocScrutinizer | benno2: in the ticket you're supposed to be terse on description of problem, and on ML you can elaborate on your thoughts and ask for alternative ways to implement what you need |
| 00:02.45 | DocScrutinizer | kW_: wd_keepalive probably only works when it comes from the process that initiated aka awakened the watchdog |
| 00:03.10 | DocScrutinizer | kW_: that's pure guessing |
| 00:03.31 | kW_ | DocScrutinizer: well, but the script here http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Jebba/Fedora#watchdog_other suggests something different |
| 00:03.40 | DocScrutinizer | ok |
| 00:03.55 | DocScrutinizer | I easily might be completely wrong on that |
| 00:04.29 | DocScrutinizer | *yawn* |
| 00:04.38 | DocScrutinizer | hey it's loading |
| 00:07.41 | DocScrutinizer | kW_: that's not exactly a script, that's a upstart file to start / stop a service |
| 00:08.17 | DocScrutinizer | hmm, more a initfile |
| 00:10.58 | benno2 | DocScrutinizer, thanks for the tips. will do it! but probably today my concentration is too low to precisely write down the stuff precisely. I might even write some sample source because often the first response you get is, it's your fault, your code probably does something wrong,read thje API xyz, there is a low level acess API etc :) |
| 00:11.25 | DocScrutinizer | yes |
| 00:12.08 | DocScrutinizer | fair enough :-D a small proggi to demontrate the issue is probably best you can do, for a ticket |
| 00:16.57 | benno2 | DocScrutinizer, yes because no one can deny it and saves a lot of useless talking. ok thanks again guys for your help. see you next time hopefully with a less buggy maemo :) |
| 00:17.11 | DocScrutinizer | kW_: also /usr/sbin/wd_keepalive seems to not exist on maemo (I know it's fedora). So if you boot the maemo kernel, I wouldn't expect the way the watchdogs work on N900 is completely compatible with the wd_keepalive way |
| 00:17.54 | DocScrutinizer | benno2: hope to see you next time soon, same place, with just a few news on the same old bug :-) |
| 00:18.48 | DocScrutinizer | benno2: don't expect Nokia to release PR1.3 merely for fixing this issue, in 3weeks. |
| 00:19.07 | kW_ | DocScrutinizer: well, I used the wd_keepalive from fedora-arm-RPM packages |
| 00:19.08 | DocScrutinizer | benno2: so probably here and devel ML is your best chance to get it sorted |

| 03:26.18 | DocScrutinizer | GeneralAntilles: lol, I've not even started editing. The result will be you can at very least use 32 steps of program text per indicator LED flashing engine |
| 03:26.35 | GeneralAntilles | Ah, cool |
| 03:26.56 | DocScrutinizer | instead of the hardcoded arbitrary limit of 16 we have now |
| 03:27.32 | DocScrutinizer | well maybe 31, as I need three steps for the muxer tables |
| 03:33.57 | DocScrutinizer | GeneralAntilles: the LP5521 in N810 had 16 steps per engine, fixed. The LP5523 in N900 has 6 pages of 16, forming a uniform storage area of 96, which you can partition as you like to point each engine to the start address of its program. Alas the driver developer was 'too lazy' to deal with that awkward paging, and hardcoded a dedicated page for each of the 3 engines, wasting the remaining 3 pages worth of storage |

| 03:39.31 | DocScrutinizer | if only I could patch mce as well, to free up engine3 from the idiotic task to do a 250ms ramp on dimming the kbd backlight. Damn that's really simpler and easier done in sw in mce, rather than sending a program for it to an engine in LP5523 and thus exclusively allocating the resource |

| 03:48.56 | DocScrutinizer | pupnik: we got /sys/*/*/engine1 engine2 and engine3. Engine3 is used by mce to dim the kbd backlight LEDs. If I change the code servicing the engine3 sysnode, so it does what mce *should* do, then the real hw engine3 is free and could show up as /sys/*/*/engine3_now_for_real |

| 10:30.16 | alterego | BCMM: It's a feature that wasn't really discussed, should be availabe in the next phone I guess. |
| 10:30.30 | alterego | Not particularly popular though |
| 10:30.33 | alterego | anyhow bbl |
| 10:30.37 | BCMM | how does it work, anyway? is it something that could be implemented the a third party like MMS, or would it require source to some closed things? |

| 11:12.12 | povbot | Bug 10506: 'My nokia' unsubscribe attempt costs money. This is in breach of the UK regulations on premium rate texts. |
| 11:12.26 | SpeedEvil | This is as I understand a premium rate text number. |
| 11:12.36 | SpeedEvil | And you have not been informed about the costs. |
| 11:12.40 | alterego | SpeedEvil: said local rate in the text |
| 11:12.48 | SpeedEvil | It costs 10p |
| 11:13.02 | SpeedEvil | this does not make it not premium in terms of the regulations as I understand it. |
| 11:13.05 | alterego | ghey, not part of my inclusive texts then ... |
| 11:13.28 | alterego | Why can't the susidise it or something, freakin' idiots. |
| 11:13.47 | BCMM | "local sms cost" means "not included in your free texts"? |
| 11:14.14 | alterego | BCMM: I don't think it means anything :P |
| 11:14.31 | BCMM | i presumed it meant "normal sms cost" |
| 11:14.32 | SpeedEvil | As I understand it also - SMSs from 84000 will cost you money. |
| 11:14.54 | BCMM | hmm, that would anger me |

| 16:13.28 | benno2 | alterego, no an app which should fast react to audio input showing it visually. currently with QAudioInput I get 5000msec (5sec!) latencies. the same code on Linux gets low latencies. QAudioInput uses ALSA (did look at the code of qt 4.6.2/3). so I think it's maemo's pulse audios ALSA emulation |

| 16:20.25 | benno2 | alterego, probalby QAudioInput choses the default ALSA devices and that is the pulse ALSA device. and this is what causes latency. if I request a buffer of 2048 bytes at 44kHz (mono 16bit = 1024 bytes = about 20msecs), it returns a bufsize of 8000bytes, which is already fishy. I tried with 8khz mono 16bit and a bufsize of 512bytes and it is adjusted to 1600bytes. so it seems like it always tries to set the bufsize to 100msec. but the real latency is 5000msec |

| 16:30.26 | benno2 | alterego, might be, but look at it from a developer's perspective. Nokia says: use Qt so you get efficient and portable code. I use QAudioInput and the latency sucks. so it means the maemo qt people did not do their homework. if developers need to go through 1000 hurdles to get decent latency they lose interest and patience and will switch platform. on iphone for example almost any stupid app provides low latency. because there is a single audio API which work |

| 17:05.03 | alterego | Venemo: what I would do, if I was doing what you're doing. I'd open up a python interpreter on the device, and I'd start looking at the x windows :) |
| 17:05.33 | Venemo | I need to know which homescreen is active, because I wrote an application that puts widgets dynamically on the homescreen |
| 17:05.55 | Venemo | and obviously, when the device is powered off, the widgets disappear |

| 17:08.10 | Venemo | the advantage is that this way I can have multiple instances of the same widget |
| 17:09.06 | flailingmonkey | it could remove/modify those widgets I would think, but then the widgets wouldn't need the program to be running to display |
| 17:09.39 | Venemo | flailingmonkey: I get your point, but that is not the issue |

| 21:35.09 | alterego | Not without outside encapsulation again, some kind of metadata. |
| 21:35.35 | microlith | and metadata works, but only if it travels with the file |
| 21:36.23 | alterego | Anyhow, this convo has got a bit boring, my stance is: I don't like fileextensions, it's a stupid DOSism that should never have been created. filenames should just be names. |
| 21:36.37 | svanheulen | extentions are basically metadata... |

| 21:37.35 | alterego | that said, there is no getting rid of them at the moment. but I don't think on a device like the N900 or any phone right now should have a file manager that shows them. |
| 21:37.48 | alterego | Well, that has to show them. |

| 21:42.19 | crashanddie | files should be opened based on content, not extension. |
| 21:42.49 | crashanddie | extensions are a stupid invention, a clever, yes, but really useless now -- considering the speeds you get from disks |
| 21:42.57 | svanheulen | crashanddie: well yes, of course, but the user still needs to know what will open it |
| 21:43.08 | crashanddie | and that's the role of the UI, not the extension. |

| 23:38.59 | tuliobaars | ols, i had seen that fanoush have an alternative rootfs and kernel for n810. How can i load it or installit? |
| 23:39.09 | SpeedEvil | I diddn't think mer could be installed on 810 |
| 23:39.16 | SpeedEvil | But I know little of 810 |
| 23:39.31 | SpeedEvil | The above repos - one has screen. |
| 23:39.35 | SpeedEvil | perhaps tools |
| 23:39.38 | alterego | Mer was designed for the N810 SpeedEvil :P |
| 23:39.52 | tuliobaars | OK, but pls, help me. I have some importamt data on n810, and it would be so bad if i lose it... |
| 23:40.15 | SpeedEvil | aha |
| 23:40.17 | SpeedEvil | Err http://repository.maemo.org fremantle/tools/free screen 4.0.3-0.3osso4+0m5 |
| 23:40.20 | tuliobaars | or even install MeeGo or Xubuntu, if possible |
| 23:40.26 | alterego | initially at least, before it got scrapped, then retasked as probably the name of MeeGo on N810 and N900 |
| 23:40.42 | ohwhyme | so whos getting the n9 |
| 23:40.56 | tuliobaars | sorry, alterego? |
| 23:41.01 | alterego | ohwhyme: there is no such thing. |
| 23:41.13 | ohwhyme | :p |
| 23:41.23 | tuliobaars | my n810 is rebooting and rebooting... |
| 23:41.27 | Venemo | SpeedEvil: and what does this "screen" do? |
| 23:41.38 | SpeedEvil | Venemo: It's a text-mode windowing system |
| 23:41.44 | tuliobaars | pls, i have to take a snack, in 10min i get go back, ok? |
| 23:42.15 | SpeedEvil | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen |
| 23:42.27 | alterego | ohwhyme: but seriously, how do you expect anyone to comment on that, no one can make an informed decision with no information, I really don't want to commit myself to another purchase just yet tbh. |
| 23:42.50 | ohwhyme | fair enough but the n8's hdmi looks pretty nice |
| 23:42.52 | alterego | Venemo: it's like matchbox for x terminal :P |
| 23:43.02 | ohwhyme | I feel like I just got my n900 |
| 23:43.02 | SpeedEvil | It's not |
| 23:43.10 | SpeedEvil | It supports splitscreen |
| 23:43.13 | SpeedEvil | ohwhyme: Indeed. |
| 23:43.29 | alterego | SpeedEvil: so does matchbox ... with an axe |
| 23:43.30 | vldcnst | terminal without screen = waste of time |
| 23:43.30 | SpeedEvil | ohwhyme: Though I recently had to buy another 6 months of internets for her. |
| 23:43.37 | ohwhyme | haha |
| 23:43.42 | ohwhyme | i cant afford internet :D |
| 23:44.18 | SpeedEvil | Fortunately - tmobile here sell it really quite cheap. 20 quid for 6 months |
| 23:44.23 | SpeedEvil | (limited to 1G/mo) |
| 23:44.38 | vldcnst | SpeedEvil: average speed? |
| 23:44.38 | ohwhyme | is that pay as you go? |
| 23:44.56 | ohwhyme | id do that if i were in england |
| 23:45.48 | SpeedEvil | vldcnst: I can blow through the quota in 2h. |
| 23:45.59 | SpeedEvil | vldcnst: 150kbytes/s |

| 23:50.32 | SpeedEvil | Well - 4.23 now. |
| 23:51.20 | alterego | What's the monthly qouta on that? I need to get a decent one as I'm going to get stitched by vodafone .. |

| 23:51.35 | DocAvalanche | vldcnst: <vldcnst>~.*(\+\+|\-\-) == /kick |
| 23:51.44 | SpeedEvil | But it's not a hard cap - and there are no overage charges. |
| 23:51.54 | SpeedEvil | It's a 'we might slow you down if you exceed' |
| 23:51.57 | alterego | Eesh, that is what I can negotiate with them, IK need more as it's my only internet connection :/ |
| 23:52.03 | vldcnst | DocAvalanche: understood. |

| 23:52.22 | SpeedEvil | They don't have as good options if you want more than that |
| 23:52.33 | SpeedEvil | ohwhyme: they do it through teh website. |

| 23:54.45 | SpeedEvil | But may be the only option for >1G. |
| 23:55.26 | alterego | :/ oh well, I'll wait until the time comes. |
| 23:55.31 | kakashi_ | Hi all, I have a small problem! I tried to install python as it was giving some errors using apt-get --fix-install, it removed a bunch of most important things, which is made it impossible to reboot |
| 23:55.56 | kakashi_ | I tried using flasher-3.5 |
| 23:56.19 | DocAvalanche | ~alterego++ |
| 23:56.32 | alterego | :) |
| 23:56.45 | DocAvalanche | just to fix damage done by vldcnst |
| 23:56.48 | kakashi_ | it worked the first time, but again the phone didn't boot, I am again trying it but it keeps doing Suitable USB device not found, waiting. |
| 23:56.49 | alterego | I think I deserve more after my activities today :P |
| 23:56.54 | ohwhyme | how does the 20 pounds work? Can I pay via credit card? |
| 23:57.08 | ohwhyme | cause you have to text that you want the 6 months internet |
| 23:57.23 | Venemo | kakashi: you should reflash |

| 23:58.42 | SpeedEvil | ohwhyme: credit card, or you can buy topup cards at various outlets. |
| 23:58.55 | ohwhyme | does it work well? |
| 23:59.23 | kakashi_ | SpeedEvil, done, but, should I press U while putting the battery in? |
| 23:59.34 | alterego | kakashi_: home |
