| 00:58.19 | TiagoTiago_ | would it be possible to tune the N900 camera to not show dark bands when shooting a CRT screen? |
| 00:59.27 | SpeedEvil | Generally not. |
| 00:59.57 | SpeedEvil | The problem is that much of the light of a CRT is emitted immediately as the electron beam strikes it. |
| 01:00.09 | SpeedEvil | What may work is using fcam |
| 01:00.15 | SpeedEvil | set the gain to minimum |
| 01:01.40 | TiagoTiago_ | i mean tune the timming so it opens the "shutter' when the screen starts to be scanned, then closes when it finishes, and the dark band is always between frames |
| 01:01.54 | SpeedEvil | Doesn't work like that |
| 01:02.19 | SpeedEvil | The CRT is continually painted from top to bottom. |
| 01:02.50 | TiagoTiago_ | isn't the dark band the period between the last pixel and the first pixel? |
| 01:02.53 | SpeedEvil | If you look at it in any 1/1000th of a second interval, you'll see one bright horizontal line, with the rest of the picture comparatively dim |
| 01:03.05 | TiagoTiago_ | i know |
| 01:03.24 | SpeedEvil | The rolling shutter on the camera will also not typically 'roll' at exactly 50/60hz per screen height |
| 01:03.26 | *** join/#maemo merlincorey (~merlin@67.220.94.24) |
| 01:03.29 | TiagoTiago_ | but the dark band isn't when the last line is scanned and the first is about to be? |
| 01:03.53 | TiagoTiago_ | hm |
| 01:03.54 | SpeedEvil | It's an interaction between the rolling shutter, and the brightly illuminated line |
| 01:04.02 | SpeedEvil | Try for example taking a pic rotated 90 degrees. |
| 01:04.09 | TiagoTiago_ | rolling scan, i see |
| 01:04.34 | TiagoTiago_ | you can't have all the lines of the sensor sensing at once |
| 01:04.43 | SpeedEvil | The rolling shutter on the camera has a certain number of lines 'active' at once. |
| 01:05.03 | SpeedEvil | These are all integrating light, for the exposure time that is desired. |
| 01:05.48 | SpeedEvil | If the frame is read out in 1/5th of a second, is 1000 pixels high, and you need a 1/500th second shutter. |
| 01:06.46 | SpeedEvil | Then initially lines 1-10 are enabled, and allowed to expose for 1/500th of a second. Then line 1 is read out, and line 11 starts exposure. |
| 01:07.03 | SpeedEvil | Every 1/5000th of a second, another line is read out, and another starts exposure. |
| 01:08.24 | SpeedEvil | Fcam may be adequate - if you turn the brightness down - if you can - or use a neutral density filter - sunglasses may work - and turn the gain down with fcamera - ISO. |
| 01:08.57 | SpeedEvil | I don't have a CRT plugged in ATM, so I can't play. |

| 01:51.51 | johnx | if it actually works, then no, I don't see a reason, because it means they made specific provisions to let it run without the battery |
| 01:52.36 | jaem | johnx: Use-case is that I have it in the car-mount, strapped to my equipment rack, and I want to have it always-on as a quick feeds/messages/todos screen in my room. |

| 07:51.22 | ieatlint | except perhaps some of the hacks are done to try and save battery or similar |
| 07:52.13 | psycho_oreos | the issue there is nokia switching over to BL-5J for n900.. the battery is relatively smaller compared to its predecessors. Makes you wonder why |

| 08:01.01 | ieatlint | my guess is the discussion going on is whether to really move on this meego thing, or start looking at android |
| 08:01.39 | TiagoTiago_ | that would be better than going Windows but still not good |
| 08:01.39 | kerio | android sucks balls |
| 08:02.00 | ieatlint | it sells though |
| 08:02.16 | ieatlint | and nokia needs a selling product badly |
| 08:02.27 | TiagoTiago_ | it probably mostly the hype from being from Google plus general marketing |
| 08:02.47 | psycho_oreos | ieatlint, I'd personally vouch the versa, symbian has been predominantly on the nokia's standard devices and it could also partially be one of the reasons why nokia is earning revenue. Alas the issue is not only that.. judging by the new CEO has some close ties with Microsoft (being ex- and what not) he would probably be inclined to see symbian as being the major OS for phones (because symbian does have some similarity to windows on phones) |
| 08:03.01 | mavhk | symbian will be the new dumbphone os, meego the new smartphone os |
| 08:03.19 | mavhk | probably should rename them cheapphone and expensivephone |
| 08:03.35 | ieatlint | psycho_oreos: no doubt symbian is one of the biggest money makers for nokia |
| 08:03.50 | ieatlint | maemo is a footnote... |
| 08:03.58 | kerio | maemo is a toy |
| 08:04.24 | mavhk | ieatlint: probably something even lower eg s40 makes even more money for them |
| 08:04.24 | kerio | even corporations like toys |
| 08:04.30 | ieatlint | but you can't keep sitting on a dying technology and adding patches and hope shit happens |
| 08:04.31 | TiagoTiago_ | IMO, if they treat it properly, it's gonna be the new Symbian |
| 08:04.54 | ieatlint | nokia sales are down 40%.. and that's symbian sales |
| 08:04.55 | TermanaDesire | But i don't think thats how they are positioning meego |
| 08:04.55 | mavhk | there's a delay in n900 v2 because of meego merge |
| 08:05.04 | kerio | n900v2? |
| 08:05.04 | ieatlint | additionally, symbian was never able to get into the US market much |
| 08:05.08 | kerio | new rev? |
| 08:05.45 | TiagoTiago_ | WAsn't it because Nokia didn't advertise much in the US nor tried to offer devices compativle with the technologies the carriers used? |
| 08:05.49 | ieatlint | intel is throwing a lot of weight onto meego, and if that materialises even for just netbooks, the name recognition could be good going back to phones |
| 08:05.58 | psycho_oreos | ieatlint, and alas meego might also be following down the same path as maemo. That's what my main concern is.. because maemo lacked audiences when nokia only made maemo NIT it was seen as relatively a niche market for it to aim at. The n900 was their comeback for it as a phone with extra gadgets but that didn't fly well when linux on phone seems to be quite new for them. I'm just hoping the new CEO won't kill meego |
| 08:06.00 | ieatlint | TiagoTiago: they used to |
| 08:06.17 | ieatlint | the nokia 6600 was heavily marketed.. was my first smartphone |
| 08:06.46 | ieatlint | psycho_oreos: yeah, it's a distinct possibility |
| 08:07.02 | ieatlint | which is why my bet is they'll head the android route if the new ceo tells meego to fuck itself |
| 08:07.23 | ieatlint | i think we will see a nokia meego phone, but it may be as niche as the n900 |
| 08:07.40 | TiagoTiago_ | Maemo/Meego has lots of potential, they just need to play their cards right |
| 08:07.43 | psycho_oreos | ieatlint, its only a matter of time before the new CEO nominates the new market tactic.. if its `sink or swim' it'll be an end for nokia's linux on phone adventure |
| 08:07.44 | kerio | nah, meego is now a joint project |
| 08:07.47 | ieatlint | and if shit doesn't shape up for meego in the next 6 months.. it'll be gone, at least as a nokia product, but likely as a product in general |
| 08:07.56 | mavhk | kerio: just whatever their next meego phone is |
| 08:08.02 | kerio | psycho_oreos: that would be the wrong thing though |
| 08:08.28 | kerio | i mean, the n900 didn't sell well for nokia, that's for sure |
| 08:08.43 | mavhk | symbian is still weird to program for, I hear |
| 08:08.47 | TermanaDesire | Other phone makers probably wont join MeeGo until they know its going to succeeded |
| 08:08.48 | TiagoTiago_ | relaly? i thought it sold more than they expected |
| 08:08.56 | kerio | but it still helped them figure out wtf to do with a really-high-end phone |
| 08:08.58 | TiagoTiago_ | really* |
| 08:08.59 | TermanaDesire | Succeed * |
| 08:09.06 | psycho_oreos | kerio, I know but my personal thoughts will be that, it'll be a hard and fast tactic for nokia as a whole to get back in touch with the rest of the world. Symbian has been on the forefront of nokia's tools and would be seen as heroic but not maemo because it lacked phone functionality as such |
| 08:09.12 | TermanaDesire | Damn autocorrect |
| 08:09.24 | mavhk | maemo 5 is just not finished enough for mass adoption |
| 08:09.55 | ieatlint | TermanaDesire: well, intel has lined up a number of partners with meego (not so much for the handset profile, of course) |
| 08:10.00 | psycho_oreos | mavhk, symbian is and that's the reason why I hated its control tactics.. waited for n900 to come out locally and I got it |
| 08:10.19 | TiagoTiago_ | IT kinda feels like they rteated the phonefication of Maemo as a hobbie project isntead of putting the company power into it |
| 08:10.22 | mavhk | n900 is a linux computer with a built in phone |
| 08:10.26 | ieatlint | if meego is on notebooks sold at common retail outlets, and in bmw cars, the name recognition for a nokia phone running it would be beneficial |
| 08:10.54 | TermanaDesire | ieatlint: netbooks are a low risk area and one that is becoming leas relevant it seems |
| 08:11.02 | TermanaDesire | Less* |
| 08:11.24 | ieatlint | eh... i wouldn't say that |
| 08:11.25 | ieatlint | low risk, yes |
| 08:11.35 | mavhk | intel hates netbooks on the hardware side, less profit per item |
| 08:11.35 | ieatlint | but i don't think tablets will kill them off |
| 08:11.41 | psycho_oreos | if only nokia was serious about marketing linux on phone as would google does with its android, it may also would have seen as a killer platform rather than neglecting the `niche market' after seeing android hit the world by storm (well almost) |
| 08:11.46 | TermanaDesire | The ipad has halved netbook sales |
| 08:11.59 | mavhk | TermanaDesire: actually that's wrong |

| 08:13.15 | psycho_oreos | yes |
| 08:13.18 | TermanaDesire | Intel trying to use x86 in the mobile arena is not a good idea IMO |
| 08:13.20 | *** join/#maemo mk8_ (~torello@ip-212-141.sn1.eutelia.it) |
| 08:13.20 | ieatlint | somehow intel licencing cpu arch from another company seems... weird |
| 08:13.23 | TiagoTiago_ | they used to make them, no? |
| 08:13.27 | psycho_oreos | strongARM is what it was called before it was sold off to Marvell |
| 08:13.34 | kerio | ARM is efficient, x86 is not |
| 08:13.51 | kerio | that said, i'll happily buy a n900 with an i7 |
| 08:14.11 | mavhk | yeah, DEC invented the strongarm, sued intel, somehow intel got their strongarm division |
| 08:14.13 | psycho_oreos | though ARM requires cross compiling.. or specific arch compiling, x86 doesn't because it can be seen as `one suit fits all' type of approach |
| 08:14.34 | ieatlint | so long as you have SSSE3 |
| 08:14.37 | kerio | psycho_oreos: my server runs ARM |
| 08:14.41 | TiagoTiago_ | the N900 is already a guzzler with it's current processor.... |
| 08:15.01 | TermanaDesire | But x86 is starting with a power sucking disadvantage over arm |
| 08:15.07 | kerio | TiagoTiago_: yeah, but those i7s are some dope shit |
| 08:15.13 | TiagoTiago_ | lol |
| 08:15.13 | psycho_oreos | kerio, that's nice but you still have to compile stuff for armel more or less :) |
| 08:15.15 | mavhk | x86 is just a risc core with an emulator sucking battery power |
| 08:15.22 | kerio | psycho_oreos: yeah of course |
| 08:15.34 | ieatlint | cross compiling doesn't need to be that bad |
| 08:15.41 | ieatlint | although doing it in windows is a joke |
| 08:16.02 | psycho_oreos | I thought x86 was more of a CISC compared to RISC hence that's why ARM et. al. is winning over the x86 due to the lack of instructions and therefore overhead |
| 08:16.04 | ieatlint | but the nokia sdk for the n900 is simple and decent |
| 08:16.16 | TermanaDesire | Mavhk - that's actually a partial myth. I had a link on it discussing it the other day. |
| 08:16.27 | *** join/#maemo hannesw (~hannes@80-121-108-92.adsl.highway.telekom.at) |
| 08:16.33 | mavhk | TermanaDesire: the 50% or the risc core? |
| 08:17.02 | psycho_oreos | cross compiling can be daunting for people who are unaware of the terms. I know of some people whom uses their n900 to compile stuff natively via chroot rather than using scratchbox environment on their PC |
| 08:17.19 | TermanaDesire | The core I believe. Ill go see if I bookmarked the link |
| 08:17.21 | mavhk | the only real reason to have x86 is windows nt |
| 08:17.24 | ieatlint | i think the other major issue with meego is that intel seems to be running it more (at least at the moment), and they kind of see the word ARM as a taboo, with slogans like "meego runs best with intel" (seriously) |
| 08:17.46 | ieatlint | they're risking alienating their open source community base |
| 08:18.10 | mavhk | TermanaDesire: yeah, it's a massive simplification, but in general, x86 chips have power sucking hardware to convert x86 instructions into the actual stuff the cpu runs |
| 08:19.07 | TiagoTiago_ | is it ok to optify flash? |
| 08:19.15 | Stskeeps | ieatlint: nah, we're actually an equal participant (ARM) in meego, but you have to recall you went to a meegozone / intel event |
| 08:19.18 | psycho_oreos | well Intel sold their strongARM division and focused on small x86 for embedded chipsets (hint: moorestown) it seems as though n9 would probably be seen as a likely possibility to have its cores and what not replaced by Intel's SoC solution |
| 08:19.19 | mavhk | obviously nokia saw that android beat them and they needed partners to compete, intel still thinks someone will make an x86 phone |
| 08:19.25 | Stskeeps | ieatlint: same kind of slogans will come if ARM showed stuff :) |
| 08:19.51 | TermanaDesire | Didn't bookmark it but what your expanded explanation is basically what it said mavhk |
| 08:19.56 | kerio | android is iOS for the cheap |
| 08:19.58 | ieatlint | Stskeeps: yeah, perhaps i'm really seeing things with a terrible bias at the moment |
| 08:20.37 | ieatlint | all i can say is the people who went coming from an intel background seemed leave just confused, and the people coming from the maemo background understood the presentations more, but also seemed just confused at the spin |
| 08:20.46 | psycho_oreos | I'm pretty sure the meego on ARM won't last long.. if anything it'll be released on either dev phones or initial batch before intel tries to push through their SoC for ARM-free device |
| 08:21.00 | Stskeeps | uhm.. |
| 08:21.00 | Stskeeps | :P |
| 08:21.03 | mavhk | win phone 7 is designed to complete with iphone 1, now 3 years later android's the more open platform and microsoft are behind again |
| 08:21.09 | TiagoTiago_ | is it ok to optify flash? |
| 08:21.16 | kerio | android is still crap though |
| 08:21.20 | Stskeeps | ieatlint: i've been along from day zero of meego ARM port, so i know what the state of the actual work is |
| 08:21.25 | mavhk | why kerio? |
| 08:21.45 | TermanaDesire | ieatlint: my guess - nokia x86 device coming ;) |
| 08:21.46 | kerio | you're just sucking on a different dick |
| 08:21.47 | Stskeeps | psycho_oreos: that's a weird theory |
| 08:21.53 | kerio | google's instead of apple's |
| 08:22.23 | psycho_oreos | right now the unreleased n9 still sports ARM which is rather nice but its still far too early to speculate on whether or not n9 will be using ARM core entirely or because of the joint venture, Intel would be seen as dominant in wanting to make their products fly |
| 08:22.29 | ieatlint | Stskeeps: oh, i definitely believe nokia is keeping along with arm on meego |
| 08:22.47 | Stskeeps | ieatlint: and not only nokia |
| 08:22.59 | Stskeeps | chipset vendors like STE, TI as well |
| 08:23.03 | ieatlint | cool then |
| 08:23.08 | TermanaDesire | psycho_oreos: I have no doubt the n9 will be arm, but after that... |
| 08:23.13 | Stskeeps | and we've seen broadcom guys round too |
| 08:23.39 | mavhk | psycho_oreos: the day an x86 phone becomes popular is the day after the human race accepts asbestos gloves aren't bad for you |
| 08:23.46 | psycho_oreos | TermanaDesire, after that we'll have to see what nokia's new CEO decides of meego project, which is also a bit of a grave concern for me |
| 08:23.56 | ieatlint | well, i'm hoping shit goes together on it all |
| 08:24.03 | Stskeeps | psycho_oreos: please keep seperate nokia meego and meego.com |
| 08:24.08 | TermanaDesire | Yeah but broadcom provides some or the other for x86 don't they stskeeps? |
| 08:24.15 | ieatlint | i'll be curious as well to see if meego is actually to maintain a unified community |
| 08:24.16 | Stskeeps | TermanaDesire: not sure if broadcom has x86 |
| 08:24.24 | ieatlint | i suppose i should join #meego-arm heh |

| 08:25.27 | psycho_oreos | Stskeeps, o.O ok |
| 08:26.02 | ieatlint | we'll see if intel does too... moblin didn't exactly get the backing it needed either |
| 08:26.04 | Stskeeps | psycho_oreos: meego.com platform is ARMv7 and Atom, which isn't going away for the forseeable future |
| 08:26.07 | Stskeeps | :P |
| 08:26.20 | Stskeeps | ieatlint: well, judging by the attitudes some of the intel people show, they're not exactly community builders.. |
| 08:26.34 | Stskeeps | and by that i don't mean the community manager, but the coders |
| 08:26.36 | ieatlint | indeed |
| 08:26.39 | TiagoTiago_ | Does Maemo uses Adobe Flash (like for interface, or decoding the hands video or somthing) or is it only used in web browsers? |
| 08:26.49 | Stskeeps | you have to meet these people in person to understand them a bit better instead of their email style |
| 08:26.53 | kerio | haha using flash for that is LOL |
| 08:26.57 | ieatlint | makes me wonder if the meego community will fracture |
| 08:27.01 | Stskeeps | TiagoTiago_: no, we use sane codecs |
| 08:27.05 | TiagoTiago_ | ok |
| 08:27.10 | psycho_oreos | Stskeeps, ahh ok |
| 08:27.23 | TiagoTiago_ | so that means its safe to optify it? |
| 08:27.24 | Stskeeps | ieatlint: i think it's going more towards integration at least in terms of ARM and X86, because we suffer a large deal of the same problems |
| 08:27.54 | Stskeeps | cos the actual hardware differences make little sense underneath qt |
| 08:28.07 | ieatlint | Stskeeps: yeah... a lot of questions... it could turn out really well |
| 08:28.18 | ieatlint | i wish i could afford to go to dublin |
| 08:28.28 | Stskeeps | ieatlint: my hope is that we have something really cool by 1.2.. |

| 08:30.14 | psycho_oreos | broadcom on meego *shudders*, sure enough they recently decided to open up their sources on their latest wireless LAN chipsets but there's still not a great deal of support for the chipsets that are not covered by any of their native linux counterparts (namely most of the ones in wl) |

| 11:02.33 | lcuk | hey debianites \o have a question: supposing I download (via git or other) a source package and cd into its folder, is there a dpkg-* command for getting the builddeps, this of course assumes the source was not in the repository already. |
| 11:03.18 | lcuk | ^ that is not possible according to debian folks |
| 11:03.26 | DocScrutinizer51 | perl makes my eyes bleed |
| 11:03.52 | psycho_oreos | I doubt it, I think dpkg-* requires sources with debian patches, namely a directory under the source tree to have debian/* |
| 11:03.55 | raster | lcuk: u mean just magically create a deb from ANY source? |
| 11:03.56 | MNZ | lcuk, how about grep Depends debian/control |
| 11:04.04 | MNZ | oh |
| 11:04.11 | TiagoTiago_ | looking at those examples of perl code, it seems to me the language itself doesn't enforce obfuscated code, but it is flexible enough to allow twisted levels of it |
| 11:04.20 | lcuk | raster, i want to run "make" on the package I just git clone'd |
| 11:04.24 | MNZ | you mean no debian/ ? |
| 11:04.26 | lcuk | MNZ, sure |
| 11:04.54 | MNZ | TiagoTiago_, exactly. Except all the hackers with their obfuscation are giving it a bad rep :( |
| 11:05.03 | raster | lcuk: dpkg has nothing to do with you being able to run make |
| 11:05.06 | lcuk | i have put a note in the readme about the builddeps |
| 11:05.24 | raster | its your job to provide builddeps |
| 11:05.26 | lcuk | raster, make doesnt think about it, but for packages with debian/ folder it should work |
| 11:05.27 | raster | not upstream src |
| 11:05.29 | MNZ | lcuk, just ./configure the package and see :P |
| 11:05.33 | raster | they have no clue what distro u run |
| 11:05.36 | raster | what version |
| 11:05.38 | lcuk | MNZ, no autotools |
| 11:05.42 | raster | and what packages have those deps |
| 11:05.46 | TiagoTiago_ | perhaps someone should relelase a perl variant that will not copile code that isn't obfuscated |
| 11:05.49 | raster | and even how they can get installed |
| 11:05.55 | raster | no upstream can sanely handle that |
| 11:06.05 | lcuk | raster, the debian/ folder does contain everything but the Depends: line isnt formatted for use with apt :P |
| 11:06.53 | raster | oh it has a debian dir? |
| 11:07.04 | lcuk | most do |
| 11:07.12 | raster | with all the right debian packahing info for that src? |
| 11:07.19 | lcuk | yes |
| 11:07.22 | MNZ | lcuk, can you re-explain the situation? |
| 11:07.26 | raster | dpng-buildpackage -r fakeroot |
| 11:07.37 | lcuk | cant build package |
| 11:07.38 | raster | (in the dir that has debian/) |
| 11:07.43 | lcuk | because the build deps arent yet installed |
| 11:07.48 | raster | then install them |
| 11:07.54 | lcuk | what are they? |
| 11:07.57 | raster | the debina pkg info should have all of that |
| 11:08.15 | MNZ | just grep for 'Depends'. what's wrong with that?? |
| 11:08.50 | lcuk | MNZ, sure but it takes mucking around for each one |
| 11:09.11 | raster | lcuk: the build fails with src (makefiles or configure) complaining of missing deps or headers etc?? |
| 11:09.39 | MNZ | no, quick regexp for clean up and just shoot through 'xargs apt-get install' I suppose. There WAS a command for this... hold on |
| 11:09.52 | lcuk | MNZ, sure its a quick regexp |
| 11:10.08 | lcuk | but every developer who gets a package from git may have to do the same thing |
| 11:10.15 | raster | or there is a Build-Depends: |
| 11:10.22 | MNZ | lcuk, this package is not in the repos ? |
| 11:10.23 | lcuk | the dpkg-whatthefuckarethebuilddeps would be simpler |
| 11:10.28 | raster | and u want those build deps installed for u in 1 simple command? |
| 11:10.45 | lcuk | raster, installed or listed yes |
| 11:12.16 | raster | well if u can list - u can install |
| 11:12.22 | lcuk | sure |
| 11:12.30 | raster | as such the build-depends line isnt just a pckg list |
| 11:12.39 | raster | but also specific version depsn etc. too |
| 11:13.18 | lcuk | basically the same operation that apt-get builddep [package] has |
| 11:13.25 | lcuk | but for source folders |
| 11:14.50 | raster | hmm |
| 11:15.01 | raster | well normally u'd want apt-get build-dep |
| 11:15.52 | lcuk | yes - but in the case of maemo, downloading a debian package source and trying to port/bring it to maemo |
| 11:16.13 | lcuk | the debian package usually expects the whole debian repositories are available |
| 11:16.32 | lcuk | this just isnt the case and usually need to build multiple things |
| 11:16.41 | raster | yeah |
| 11:18.09 | DocScrutinizer51 | another interesting problem: how to check initscripts for not using 'nonexistent' commands (like /usr/sbin/foo which due to usr not mounted would fail on boot)? thought along some ;;which 'strings init.d';; - of course a bit more sophisticated, Or mount rootfs (which has /usr now) without noatime. Or sed a wrappermscript to log invocations for every bin in /usr/(s)bin. Are there better/existing ideas/tools? |

| 11:24.02 | DocScrutinizer | lcuk: yeah, not that you mention it, it's highly questionable why /usr/* should be in path (if any at all) of initscripts |
| 11:24.09 | DocScrutinizer | s/not/now/ |
| 11:24.42 | DocScrutinizer | thanks fellas |
| 11:25.09 | MNZ | lcuk, some intelligent grepping reveals that you can list build-deps... but only after building XD so if you have a binary or you can already do a dpkg-buildpackage then you can list stuff |
| 11:26.09 | MNZ | You can check for yourself: |
| 11:26.10 | MNZ | for i in `find /usr/share/man -iname "dpkg*"| xargs`; do echo $i; zcat $i | nroff| grep -i --color depend; done |

| 11:26.30 | MNZ | lcuk, yeah it's pretty weird |
| 11:26.31 | TiagoTiago_ | why the regular clock isn't set the same way the clock is set when you insert a new SIM? |
| 11:26.35 | lcuk | i just added an apt-get line in the README notes |
| 11:27.20 | lcuk | so getting from git and trying to build is as simple as possible |
| 11:27.32 | lcuk | i wonder how other systems deal with similar |
| 11:27.40 | lcuk | ie, is there an rpm equiv |
| 11:28.38 | lcuk | TiagoTiago_, internal battery for clock foobar? |
| 11:29.28 | DocScrutinizer | but then... we not only got init.d/*, we also got event.d (upstart), and especially buggering: there are scripts that run *after* >>mount /dev/mmcfoo /usr<< which of course may use all of the usr/(s)bin cmds. How to tell which are the scripts/events that lack a mounted /usr ? |
| 11:30.02 | TiagoTiago_ | no, i mean, when you insert a new sim, you get a clock with arms for hours and minutes, and you drag each arm to set the time like on a physical clock, but then during regular use, you just scroll thru a list of numbers |
| 11:30.36 | lcuk | ahhh |
| 11:30.47 | lcuk | one uses gtk itself the other doesnt |
| 11:31.03 | DocScrutinizer | lcuk: grep usr /etc/init.d/* just gives too much to get me anywhere |
| 11:31.10 | lcuk | ok |
| 11:31.44 | RST38h | moo lcuk |
| 11:31.53 | TiagoTiago_ | that type of inconsistency reinforces the impression Nokia didn't put enough effort in the N900 :/ |
| 11:32.23 | lcuk | TiagoTiago_, hmm |
| 11:32.42 | lcuk | i, for one, have seen incredible effort put in by nokia on the n900 |
| 11:32.49 | lcuk | and everyone else besides |
| 11:33.07 | lcuk | TiagoTiago_, tell you what |
| 11:33.08 | DocScrutinizer | TiagoTiago_: yep, the initial settings app is MUCH better than that usual incredible scroll-lists crap for date and time |
| 11:33.23 | lcuk | you implement that funky clock as a gtk widget |
| 11:33.29 | lcuk | push it towards maemo extras |

| 15:21.33 | DocScrutinizer | especially to N900, with all the nice open hw drivers... err did I say that? |
| 15:21.34 | lcuk | n900 has no dedicated call/cancel buttons on the facia - i think most/all have them |
| 15:21.45 | javispedro | well |
| 15:21.53 | javispedro | droid devices also "must have" certain buttons |
| 15:21.54 | lcuk | they would have to be soft buttons etc |
| 15:21.55 | TiagoTiago_ | there are plenty buttons to choose from |
| 15:21.56 | javispedro | see nitdroid |
| 15:22.03 | RST38h | lcuk: "If grandmother had balls, she would be granfather" |
| 15:22.04 | javispedro | where they abuse the camera button / focus button |
| 15:22.14 | lcuk | yuck |
| 15:22.43 | RST38h | As things stand though, you have got what you have got, so the answer to all these Symbian/Maemo "proposals" is a no. |
| 15:22.44 | user_ | can we have windows CE on N900? |
| 15:22.55 | RST38h | user: Yes, VMWare has done that. |
| 15:23.11 | user_ | woooot! |
| 15:23.22 | user_ | VMware is on N900? |
| 15:23.42 | TiagoTiago_ | you could always add virtual buttons and reduce the reported screen resolution by 16 lines or somthing |
| 15:23.51 | DocScrutinizer | user_: we don't need no silly VMware |
| 15:23.57 | DocScrutinizer | we got bochs |

| 15:26.40 | lolloo | hahaha |

| 15:27.40 | RST38h | javispedro: well, new ones join tmo weekly, and they all want to have their say, if not ovi maps |
| 15:28.34 | lolloo | I dont get ovi maps! do one really need internet to check his location using gps! |
| 15:28.53 | javispedro | either that or 20 minutes waiting for gps lock |
| 15:29.17 | RST38h | Really useful irc command, that /ignore... |
| 15:29.38 | TiagoTiago_ | doesn't it also keep map tiles in the "cloud", and the route seraching is also aquired from cloudware? |
| 15:30.21 | javispedro | TiagoTiago_: neither. it just uses the cloud for POI searches. it routes offline and can keep local map tiles cached (even entire countries) |
| 15:30.49 | RST38h | still wants connection every 5 minutes or so |
| 15:30.55 | javispedro | yep. |
| 15:31.02 | lolloo | javispedro, your right |
| 15:31.10 | lolloo | it takes long |
| 15:31.22 | RST38h | 20-minute gps lock problem is solvable, albeit in a weird way |
| 15:31.41 | RST38h | The solution is to run Nokia's GPS diagnostics utility in the background |
| 15:31.50 | lolloo | wow |
| 15:31.53 | lolloo | how? |
| 15:32.06 | RST38h | And let that utility initialize GPS and obtain the position. Usually takes no more than 5 minutes when standing still. |
| 15:32.24 | javispedro | or warm it at home (or anywhere with wi-fi) |
| 15:32.30 | lolloo | RST38h, how do one do it? |
| 15:32.47 | RST38h | that too , but it is less flexible and it will screw up again after you lock/unlock the device |
| 15:32.55 | javispedro | hum |
| 15:33.01 | lolloo | mmm |
| 15:33.09 | TiagoTiago_ | i've read someone say GPSjinni also speds things up |
| 15:33.30 | javispedro | TiagoTiago_: Ovi has a bug where it will shutdown/power up the gps every often |
| 15:33.34 | TiagoTiago_ | s/peds/speeds |
| 15:33.44 | TiagoTiago_ | ah, that sucks |
| 15:33.44 | RST38h | Not a bug. A feature! |

| 15:38.38 | RST38h | javispedro: Oh, the keyword there was "features" |

| 15:39.41 | javispedro | sighs |
| 15:39.51 | RST38h | javispedro: But yes, the whole maemo.org looks like a hastily abandoned research project now |
| 15:39.55 | TiagoTiago_ | i tend to stay away fromt he council talk 'cause i hardly remember anyone's name much less who said what, and they probably have much deeper things to worry about than whatever i might say |

| 15:41.24 | RST38h | yea, that too, but there are fewer of them now |
| 15:41.33 | sobczyk | hi, is it possible to use usb networking for internet on n900? for now the UI does not reckognize it |
| 15:41.39 | TiagoTiago_ | they died of hunger fromt he lack of heads? |
| 15:41.51 | RST38h | Tiago: Oh, what wonderful headcrabs have we seen before your time! |
| 15:42.15 | javispedro | sobczyk: you need libicd-network-usb if you want the proper but possibly a bit hard to install solution, or libicd-network-dummy which is iirc avail on extras and is the "easy half-assed solution". |
| 15:42.16 | RST38h | Tiago: they moved on, headcrabs only attach to individuals with a brain |
| 15:42.49 | javispedro | ah, seems libicd-network-usb is also on -devel now. |
| 15:42.54 | TiagoTiago_ | isn't there instructions for that int he wiki? |
| 15:43.07 | RST38h | javispedro:well, jeremiah just confirmed my assessment of the situation :) |
| 15:43.21 | javispedro | TiagoTiago_: yes, about the -dummy one. |
| 15:43.33 | javispedro | -usb has support for autoconnection, detection of cable removal, etc. etc. |
| 15:43.48 | RST38h | javispedro: I do wonder how things transform once the next device (Harmattan? or proper Meego?) is out |
| 15:43.51 | TiagoTiago_ | what about that pc-connectivity-manager thingy? |
| 15:44.28 | RST38h | javispedro: BTW, makes me wonder how people working on Harmattan feel, do they expect their work to migrate to Meego with minimal changes? |
| 15:44.51 | javispedro | RST38h: I have no idea. Tbh I predicted m.o would die earlier. Seems there's an influx of new users I didn't predict though |
| 15:44.53 | lolloo | Whats up with Meego? |
| 15:45.00 | TiagoTiago_ | the change of name from Maemo really fucked things up, there is like 4 devices in that site, and now they changed the name and it's a matter of "us VS them" :/ |
| 15:45.03 | javispedro | RST38h: ah, about Harmattan. |
| 15:45.04 | lolloo | so many hype about it, why? |
| 15:45.20 | javispedro | RST38h: since Meego is not exactly any unified kind of project (other than the common Qt baseline API) |
| 15:45.29 | javispedro | RST38h: "harmattan" will be Meego Handset and that's about it |
| 15:45.48 | RST38h | javispedro: on top of debian base? |
| 15:46.26 | javispedro | RST38h: guess not. there's not much work done on the "debian base" either. |
| 15:46.39 | javispedro | possibly because someone knows they're going to drop it. |
| 15:46.55 | RST38h | javispedro: I remember Nokians saying that Harmattan will still be Maemo, just called Meego for marketing purposes |
| 15:47.05 | *** join/#maemo gomiam (~magao@84.79.25.26) |
| 15:47.10 | Termana | RST38h, that's the rough idea |
| 15:47.26 | RST38h | javispedro: Which makes me wonder what the core of the Harmattangoingto be |
| 15:47.40 | Termana | RST38h, a hacked up Debian, like Maemo 5 |
| 15:47.44 | Termana | debs etc. |
| 15:47.44 | javispedro | RST38h: afaik: harmattan = maemo + "meegotouch". meego handset = meego "core" + "meegotouch". |
| 15:48.04 | javispedro | so yes they will kill the "distro" parts of maemo but keep the GUI. |
| 15:48.06 | RST38h | javispedro: meegotouch is a library layer |
| 15:48.15 | kerio | can you guys tell me why we're using busybox again? |
| 15:48.22 | kerio | instead of, you know, true coreutils |
| 15:48.28 | TiagoTiago_ | space? |
| 15:48.32 | Termana | kerio, in MeeGo or MeeGo/Harmattan? |
| 15:48.38 | kerio | in maemo |
| 15:48.44 | kerio | i hope they didn't keep it on meego |
| 15:48.49 | RST38h | javispedro: so, the question is wjether harmattan and meego will share the apps layer |
| 15:48.52 | Termana | kerio, MeeGo has coreutils |
| 15:48.58 | kerio | yay |
| 15:48.59 | sobczyk | if I connect n900 as mass storage, the network still works? |
| 15:49.01 | Termana | kerio, Harmattan will use busybox probably though |
| 15:49.05 | kerio | what the fuck |
| 15:49.08 | javispedro | RST38h: you know the official answer: "Use Qt, Luke." |
| 15:49.21 | RST38h | javispedro: which does not answer the question of course :) |

| 15:49.34 | Termana | kerio, again, as we are currently discussing, Harmattan is basically Maemo 6 renamed. |
| 15:49.34 | MohammadAG | and I'm splitting it into two, one for the UI, and one for the modules |
| 15:49.38 | RST38h | javispedro: especially considering that there is 1) generic qt 2) meegotouch and 3) symbian qt ui |
| 15:49.42 | Termana | The core is still the same, the UI is changed |
| 15:49.46 | MohammadAG | then I make the UI depend on the modules |
| 15:49.51 | javispedro | RST38h: the official answer is: "you do not need to use meegotouch" |

| 15:50.03 | MohammadAG | will dpkg complain that it's trying to overwrite when I upgrade both? |
| 15:50.07 | Termana | kerio, therefore, busybox is still likely to be used in Harmattan |
| 15:50.13 | javispedro | I have to see how much "native" you can get without resorting to meegotouch. |
| 15:50.17 | kerio | then harmattan will suck balls |
| 15:50.19 | RST38h | javispedro: Really? Is it because it is useless or because it does not currently work on Maemo5? =) |
| 15:50.25 | kerio | javispedro: the point is that you should use qt mobility |
| 15:50.41 | kerio | and it will automagically work (yeah, right) with every mobile device that uses qt |
| 15:50.54 | javispedro | kerio: as I once said, midlets reinvented. |
| 15:51.07 | lolloo | =) |
| 15:51.10 | kerio | then again, i don't really know what we're talking about |

| 15:52.09 | lolloo | is it? where? |
| 15:52.20 | RST38h | it has been ported but there is no usable package in the repos |

| 17:00.19 | mece | hello |
| 17:01.17 | SpeedEvil | As I understand, no |
| 17:01.23 | MNZ | l0up, well turning on both headphone and speaker (same output) is already possible with things as they are (though you will _probably_ need a little patch I wrote for speaker protection... long story) |
| 17:01.46 | TiagoTiago_ | can i read the long story somehwere? |
| 17:02.29 | MNZ | l0up, different outputs though, that will require a considerable change to how the audio codec is used on the N900. Probably not a good idea for everyday use |
| 17:02.54 | TiagoTiago_ | might also help with that idea of using the N900 as a hearing aid |
| 17:03.24 | l0up | MNZ: thought so:F well maybe i'll just ditch the djstudio project and get my focus on the sampler/sequencer |
| 17:03.25 | MNZ | in brief it would render the headphone unusable for 'normal' playback |
| 17:03.47 | MNZ | l0up, I believe that would be a good idea, yeah |
| 17:04.04 | MNZ | TiagoTiago_, long story has been discussed several times here, not going to recount :P |
| 17:04.11 | TiagoTiago_ | you can't like create virtual soundcards, and redirect the outputs? |
| 17:04.27 | l0up | there should be enough work in one project as i havent got the time :P |
| 17:04.30 | TiagoTiago_ | ah, it was only told in chat? :/ |
| 17:06.00 | MNZ | TiagoTiago_, short version: PulseAudio protects speakers by removing bass signals. We can do that in HW instead. |
| 17:06.07 | mece | is there some sort of general intro to qml somewhere? I seem to be failing on some very basic stuff. Like how can I access something that is a child of something from outside the parent? |

| 19:25.42 | ShadSEC2 | but for some reason, exported variables from main script are not being accesible in spawned screens |
| 19:25.59 | ShadSEC2 | yep, thats what I thought |

| 19:36.27 | lindi- | ShadSEC2: can you put the output online? |
| 19:37.56 | ShadSEC2 | that would a be a bit complex while the program is running... ill redirect to file and transfer afterwards |
| 19:38.20 | ShadSEC2 | but now I think the child it is not of the main script running |
| 19:38.26 | ShadSEC2 | but a child of screen itself |
| 19:38.44 | lindi- | ShadSEC2: that's what I guessed too |
| 19:39.11 | ShadSEC2 | screen -t "plugin" xxxxx/plugin <- this is how it is spawned |
| 19:39.33 | ShadSEC2 | even if it is being spawned from the main script it is screen creating it |
| 19:39.40 | lindi- | yes |
| 19:40.22 | ShadSEC2 | so.... better stop thinking about it, and just export the vars to file and source it from the plugin? |
| 19:40.38 | lindi- | ShadSEC2: is screen really a dependency of your app? |

| 20:13.24 | xqo | n900s successor? |
| 20:13.51 | nox- | i think there are only rumours (n9?) |
| 20:14.02 | xqo | oh. |
| 20:14.25 | xqo | any estimates on when it will be out? |
| 20:14.32 | kerio | lcuk: (not 5 years old) have you watched Kick-Ass? |
| 20:14.49 | xqo | im considering whether or not to buy the n900, trying to find out if im making a mistake buying old hardware |
| 20:14.51 | mgedmin | xqo, I'm under the impression it comes out some time late this year |
| 20:14.59 | xqo | oh, okay. |
| 20:15.04 | kerio | old hardware? it's not even 1 year old |
| 20:15.14 | mgedmin | I think it's likely it'll be announced during the MeeGo conference in november |
| 20:15.57 | xqo | even still, it has half the ram of todays phones, only 3g and it is pretty expensive for being so old. |
| 20:16.16 | xqo | but as far as i can tell, there are no alternatives with the same kind of freedom |
| 20:16.31 | xqo | or? |
| 20:18.36 | pexi | no |
| 20:18.37 | kerio | only 3g? |
| 20:18.38 | kerio | :o |
| 20:18.44 | pexi | buy it and try it |
| 20:18.57 | kerio | it's some really dope shit |
| 20:19.30 | kerio | it's really worth it |
| 20:19.38 | kerio | even though it has some really, REALLY stupid flaws |
| 20:19.42 | xqo | like what? |
| 20:19.53 | pexi | it is going to be some kind of technological achievement in the future anyway |
| 20:19.56 | kerio | pulseaudio, the bme, busybox, optification |
| 20:20.20 | xqo | whats that, kerio |
| 20:20.35 | pexi | and as a smartphone, you don't really get smart options |
| 20:20.40 | johnsu01 | ughh, n900 won't get past the bright NOKIA screen now, then it just turns itself off |
| 20:20.52 | xqo | im contemplating whether or not to get the n900, the HTC Desire, or the Samsung Galaxy S. |
| 20:20.55 | johnsu01 | it got a few raindrops on it last night but really very little :/ |
| 20:20.57 | xqo | what do you think? |
| 20:21.08 | kerio | xqo: stupid audio system, stupid battery system, stupid shell environment, stupid file hierarchy |
| 20:21.13 | kerio | xqo: buy the n900 |
| 20:21.16 | kerio | it's worth it |
| 20:21.34 | pexi | well I prefer desire more as a phone, but didn't get use to it's touch screen for writing (ircing) |
| 20:21.55 | pexi | and all the services and applications worked like a charm |
| 20:22.02 | pexi | web browsing was flawless |
| 20:22.09 | kerio | xqo: see, those are phones |
| 20:22.11 | kerio | the n900 is a tablet |
| 20:22.14 | pexi | but n900 is still a superb toy |
| 20:22.24 | kerio | the n900 is *the* toy |
| 20:22.30 | wmarone | I think the "tablet" designation got moved up a couple inches ;) |
| 20:22.30 | pexi | yep :) |
| 20:23.01 | xqo | im looking for a phone to call and text with, but i want some freedom, that i hear android doesnt really have? |
| 20:23.15 | kerio | xqo: the day after the one i bought the n900, i was busy changing the X11 keymap files to have more symbols |
| 20:23.21 | xqo | is n900 no good as a phone? assuming the user is a nerd |
| 20:23.22 | kerio | that's the level of freedom |
| 20:23.37 | kerio | huh? why would a nerd need a phone to call |
| 20:24.08 | kerio | ;) |
| 20:24.20 | xqo | but what do you think? n900 as phone or no? |
| 20:24.20 | wmarone | it's fine as a phone |
| 20:24.21 | pexi | btw can you turn off that blinking of screen when someone calls you? :) |
| 20:24.40 | pexi | hard to hit the accept call button :) |
| 20:24.42 | kerio | nerds need a "phone" to surf the web, chat on IRC and watch pr0n |
| 20:24.54 | xqo | wmarone, really? it doesnt sound too bad, but someone mentioned it is kind of clunky because you have to start the gsm-app and stuff before you can call |
| 20:25.02 | kerio | gsm-app? :o |
| 20:25.02 | wmarone | gsm-app? |
| 20:25.05 | kerio | are you kidding |
| 20:25.08 | wmarone | I hit the phone icon and call :) |
| 20:25.35 | kerio | xqo: are you a nerd? |
| 20:25.38 | kerio | if you are, then buy it |
| 20:25.40 | kerio | you won't regret ir |
| 20:25.42 | kerio | it |
| 20:25.51 | xqo | so if i want a phone i can install whatever i want on, use the debian-repositories, use a terminal, use python, and call/send SMS with, ill get the n900? |
| 20:26.02 | kerio | yup |
| 20:26.19 | nox- | yep |
| 20:26.38 | luke-jr | xqo: no |
| 20:26.49 | kerio | luke-jr: huh |
| 20:26.49 | nox- | only when you multitask `too much' it can get a bit slow bc of swapping :) |
| 20:26.54 | luke-jr | xqo: you can't install whatever you want on N900 |
| 20:27.05 | xqo | alright, but still, it is kind of old yes? and MeeGo is coming. Will it not be just outdated hardware? |
| 20:27.12 | luke-jr | xqo: the specs aren't open enough |
| 20:27.24 | luke-jr | it's already outdated hardware, really |
| 20:27.28 | xqo | i thought the stack was free, and the schematics were leaked, luke-jr? |
| 20:27.28 | luke-jr | 256 MB RAM is so 2009 |
| 20:27.50 | luke-jr | xqo: schematics don't give you enough to write drivers |
| 20:27.51 | kerio | we have no idea when the n9 will be on the shelves |
| 20:28.18 | wmarone | there's only two system binaries, SGX and BME |
| 20:28.22 | xqo | this one, kerio? http://img.gfx.no/722/722463/topp.788x554!.jpg |

| 20:31.36 | luke-jr | xqo: and your budget |
| 20:31.49 | luke-jr | if you can afford to buy another device within a year, get N900 |
| 20:32.04 | luke-jr | cuz I don't expect another device to be remotely competitive with N900 before then |
| 20:32.30 | luke-jr | if you're happy using Maemo and MeeGo, N900 should also be fine |

| 20:46.07 | johnx | xqo, Meego world is happening in early November and almost certainly an announcement of some type will be made then. It might not mean a device is going on sale immediately though |
| 20:46.12 | xqo | is luke-jr just being really negative, or does it get slow and sluggish? |
| 20:46.13 | noobmonk3y | frals - anyidea on max/min? |

| 20:46.29 | johnx | xqo, luke-jr is very negative, and also has a bias against Nokia. ask him about it |
| 20:46.35 | frals | noobmonk3y: bah, closed everything.. i *think* i was at max and it said 37 or smth |
| 20:46.37 | luke-jr | johnx: what bias? |
| 20:46.44 | johnx | luke-jr, do you like Nokia? |
| 20:46.45 | lcuk | xqo, yes, you can overload your n900 |
| 20:46.46 | noobmonk3y | xqo, mine is running smoothly :) - allways has, works fine :) |

| 20:47.23 | pexi | there are coming interesting other meego phones also |
| 20:47.35 | frals | pexi: any links? |
| 20:47.44 | lcuk | but the system is strong, its pretty much 5 years of the best gtk ui and is as close to debian as you will see |
| 20:47.47 | pexi | sorry |
| 20:47.49 | pexi | :) |
| 20:48.05 | pexi | well i hope they can get the package working on time |
| 20:48.07 | johnx | xqo, I think the answer about whether you will like it really depends on your usage. If you want something you can use everyday as a phone, but you also want to hack on it, there really isn't anything else in its class |
| 20:49.33 | xqo | thanks, im getting pretty excited about it. |
| 20:49.42 | pexi | buy and try |
| 20:50.41 | johnx | xqo, a warning about 'using the debian repositories': you can't use them directly |
| 20:51.08 | johnx | some people have setup a chroot and installed debian that way, but it's not 100% foolproof and the general consensus is that it slows things down noticeably |
| 20:51.25 | kerio | still, it lets you run openoffice and gimp |
| 20:51.51 | johnx | right. |
| 20:52.05 | johnx | also, the N900 will not prevent you from doing something dumb and making your phone unbootable |

| 20:57.47 | MNZ | rm -rf / |
| 20:57.55 | MNZ | ^C^C^C^C^C^C^C^C^C^C |
| 20:59.56 | dneary | MNZ, Yeah, I feel a bit like that... |
| 21:00.31 | dneary | Jaffa, Ping? |
| 21:00.40 | MNZ | dneary, I've done 'rm -rf /usr' instead of 'rm -rf usr' before |
| 21:00.49 | MNZ | ^C is never fast enough |
| 21:01.00 | dneary | MNZ, That's no big deal, as long as you're not root at the time |
| 21:01.03 | MNZ | of course a bunch of shell scripting later I had everything back to normal |
| 21:01.13 | MNZ | was root |
| 21:01.40 | xqo | oh by the way, can you connect to the N900 with USB and use a shell? |
| 21:01.50 | nox- | yes |
| 21:01.59 | dneary | xqo, use a shell to do what? |
| 21:02.07 | xqo | anything |
| 21:02.17 | dneary | Like in demolition man? |
| 21:02.33 | dneary | But you'd need 3 |
| 21:02.35 | xqo | I can plug my Neo Freerunner into my desktop computer and control it with a proper keyboard. can i do that with the n900? |
| 21:02.46 | pexi | nox-, what do you need for that? |
| 21:02.49 | nox- | yes if you install sshd |
| 21:03.17 | xqo | nice.. |
| 21:03.19 | dneary | xqo, Ah, you mean can you get a shell on the tablet, from your desktop? |
| 21:03.46 | nox- | might want to use ssh keys tho... |
| 21:03.51 | volts | so my n800 has entered an endless reboot loop and reflashing with the latest diablo image didn't help... should i try --set-rd-flags=no-lifeguard-reset ? |
| 21:03.52 | pexi | nox-, i mean can you access the mounted part |
| 21:04.00 | volts | i'm looking at this very old page here: http://blog.worldofcoding.com/2007/02/playing-with-my-n800.html |
| 21:04.33 | xqo | yes, dneary |
| 21:04.35 | johnx | volts, couldn't hurt |
| 21:04.50 | johnx | are you sure the reflash worked though? also, when did it start rebooting? |
| 21:05.03 | dneary | xqo, Then yes |
| 21:05.09 | lcuk | volts, if you think thats old: |
| 21:05.12 | johnx | xqo, it's more convenient to just ssh in over wifi though |
| 21:05.14 | nox- | pexi, via scp? that goes via usb (or wifi) networking not via usb mass storage (which umounts first) |
| 21:05.19 | xqo | johnx, why? |
| 21:05.29 | lcuk | i found a source code offer for a function I like, given in reference to an article written in 1986! |
| 21:05.31 | volts | johnx: it started the reboot loop a few weeks ago, i'm not sure why |
| 21:05.45 | volts | i can still charge the n800 at least |
| 21:05.54 | lcuk | i am pondering contacting the university and seeing whether that offer stands |
| 21:06.07 | johnx | xqo, wifi means no wires :P |
| 21:06.28 | volts | so should i do "sudo flasher-3.5 -F <firmware-image> --set-rd-flags=no-lifeguard-reset -f -R"? |
| 21:06.31 | pexi | nox-, yeah, did google n900 usb networking |
| 21:06.33 | lcuk | johnx, does code retain use after 26 years? |
| 21:06.41 | volts | or are "-f -R" not needed? |
| 21:06.48 | johnx | lcuk, you're using UNIX, aren't you? |
| 21:06.53 | xqo | i dont have wifi here, i could get it, but i dont mind wires. do you get the cable you need with the phone? |
| 21:06.57 | johnx | volts, no need to include the image |
| 21:07.00 | johnx | it's just setting a flag |
| 21:07.06 | lcuk | johnx, no, its for a graphical bitmap rotation function |
| 21:07.17 | johnx | xqo, yeah, is the same one used for syncing ;) |
| 21:07.23 | lcuk | its advertisting uber optimising |
| 21:07.26 | lcuk | as they had to do |
| 21:07.41 | johnx | lcuk, why not? are bits different nowadays? are angles of rotation different? |
| 21:07.44 | lcuk | and would be perfect for the task I need |
| 21:07.52 | lcuk | johnx, my point |
| 21:08.03 | lcuk | so I think I will contact the uni and have a see |
| 21:08.17 | volts | johnx: ah thanks, then i should just do "sudo flasher-3.5 --set-rd-flags=no-lifeguard-reset"? |
| 21:08.25 | johnx | I mean, algorithmically we've come a long way since then, so changes are good it's not the most optimal |
| 21:08.36 | nox- | xqo, thats also what i thought doing at first, but then i just got an usb wifi dongle that does ap mode and plugged that into a freebsd box :) |
| 21:08.44 | johnx | volts, yeah. you might need to turn on rd mode though |
| 21:08.57 | lcuk | johnx, i believe the same or similar implementation exists in the middle of the doom engine |
| 21:09.05 | johnx | I don't remember if that happens implicitly or if it's separate |
| 21:09.14 | lcuk | i just like the purity of thinking this is a simple single function :) |
| 21:09.21 | volts | johnx: ah, how would i do that? |
| 21:09.22 | johnx | lcuk, well, that's 15+ years old too |
| 21:09.29 | lcuk | sure |
| 21:09.32 | johnx | volts, flasher --help |
| 21:09.36 | johnx | can't think of it right now |
| 21:10.09 | DocScrutinizer | lcuk: (you also might know who else) sorry? |
| 21:10.10 | lcuk | johnx, its the same logic as I was thinking to code it myself, its just the number of variables and complexity of the operation keeps blocking |
| 21:10.10 | xqo | do you use Maemo or Meego on the N900? because its compatible with Meego right? |
| 21:10.31 | volts | johnx: ah i see, i think it's probably --enable-rd-mode |
| 21:10.39 | volts | brb... |
| 21:10.42 | lcuk | i started and failed the other night and braindumped the equation in pseudocode |
| 21:10.57 | lcuk | then found the article which described it in same manner |
| 21:11.30 | crashanddie | does anybody know why sjgadsby pinged me on twitter about some audiopulse LGPL violation? |
| 21:13.00 | johnx | xqo, there will be a meego port to N900. it's underway |
| 21:13.01 | luke-jr | xqo: MeeGo doesn't *really* exist yet |
| 21:13.13 | johnx | but maemo software won't magically work in meego |
| 21:13.19 | luke-jr | xqo: officially, it's not supported. but Nokia does pay people to work on it. |
| 21:14.26 | xqo | then.. the n900 wont reeally be superupdated in the near future even though the n9 is coming? |
| 21:14.43 | kerio | xqo: there will be meego, if that's what you're asking |
| 21:14.53 | johnx | xqo, not officially, no |
| 21:15.37 | MNZ | I'm pretty sure the N900 will be one of the first (if not THE first) device to run meego |
| 21:15.46 | johnx | also, given historical evidence, it's likely that a lot of developers will jump to the N9 and start making meego software as soon as it's available |
| 21:16.04 | kerio | MNZ: i thought it ran meego already |
| 21:16.04 | johnx | MNZ, well, technically it *is* the first I think |
| 21:16.30 | johnx | but it will never run an official commercially supported version of meego, IIUC |
| 21:17.01 | MNZ | well I don't really care. What I really care about right now is hwo to snoop on dbus messages |
| 21:17.11 | kerio | dbus-monitor? |
| 21:17.18 | DocScrutinizer | MNZ: check mdbus |
| 21:17.29 | DocScrutinizer | or use dbus-monitor |
| 21:17.30 | xqo | what is G2? |
| 21:17.38 | xqo | someone said the G2 is N900 and Desire combined |
| 21:17.52 | johnx | it's an HTC Desire Z, runs android |
| 21:18.08 | johnx | no relation to the N900 in terms of hardware or software |
| 21:18.29 | johnx | closes hardware to the N900 is the Verizon Droid and the iPhone 3GS |
| 21:18.41 | kerio | the *verizon* droid? |
| 21:18.56 | johnx | motorola Milestone, I think? |
| 21:19.12 | johnx | kerio, it's a carrier re-branded phone, |
| 21:19.16 | xqo | http://www.zurb.com/article/438/-podcast-of-peter-skillmans-talk-on-innov by the way, if you're interested. |
| 21:19.31 | kerio | the motorola droid, isn't it |
| 21:19.39 | wmarone | droid is being used by verizon |
| 21:19.50 | kerio | the droid is a closed piece of crap |
| 21:19.56 | wmarone | they all are |
| 21:20.00 | wmarone | all motorola phones are |
| 21:20.12 | johnx | kerio, but verizon calls it the droid, motorola calls it the milestone, IIRC |
| 21:20.23 | kerio | yeah but the droid actually prevents you from running custom kernels |
| 21:20.41 | wmarone | well |
| 21:20.45 | wmarone | the -droid- doesn't |
| 21:20.47 | johnx | so do most carrier branded Android handsets, IIRC |
| 21:20.47 | wmarone | the milestone does |
| 21:20.49 | kerio | at a hardware level |
| 21:21.00 | pexi | It's very easy to copy a mobile phone . it takes about 8 hours to take apart a phone and laser scan the whole thing. It will take another 2 to 3 weeks and mimic and build any phone out there. The bar for delivering reasonable hardware has really come down. |

| 21:26.23 | jacekowski | wmarone: it's the thing that verifies bootloader |

| 21:26.34 | jacekowski | wmarone: and anything else you want it to verify |
| 21:26.48 | jacekowski | wmarone: and it's using trustzone to make it "safe" |
| 21:27.00 | jacekowski | wmarone: so you can't tamper easily with m-shield |

| 21:33.25 | luke-jr | DocScrutinizer: you already have a m-shield enabled NOLO |

| 21:35.01 | jacekowski | well, nolo is m-shield enabled |

| 21:42.06 | jacekowski | and that's probably why bootloader is using all that trustzone stuff |
| 21:42.20 | jacekowski | so you can't do anything with key from outside bootloader |

| 21:48.42 | noobmonk3y | ffs! LED 1 FAIL now!!! |
| 21:48.46 | luke-jr | I want to get my N900 to share GPS via Bluetooth |

| 22:00.15 | MohammadAG | (from the sensor next to the battery) |
| 22:00.21 | noobmonk3y | hehe, tis ok, thought that was the case, as OMAP deprecated it after that model :P - according to their website, must have just been flakey in that 1 |
| 22:00.23 | MohammadAG | or from the battery itself, not sure |
| 22:00.36 | noobmonk3y | MohammadAG, the battery one is flakey too |
| 22:00.38 | MohammadAG | but it's in kernel-power, if you can get the source it can be compiled for omap1 |

| 22:03.03 | osaka | hello, came to ask if anyone else is having an issue with n900 not alerting on incoming SMS all the time? no vibration or sound or on-screen message, but if you open the conversation it's there |
| 22:03.30 | osaka | i've noticed it only with one contact, too :/ |
| 22:03.34 | noobmonk3y | osaka, specific texts? i ask, as it is possible to send a non-alert text |
| 22:04.22 | noobmonk3y | (Back in the day i had a tool to do that was quite funny) - but these days, companies can do it, even the vodafone text centre, (Text via outlook) allows you to send non-alert texts) |
| 22:04.22 | osaka | sometimes it does alert from the contact's sms's but not always, and it's a girl i doubt who knows how to send a non-alert text |
| 22:04.40 | noobmonk3y | osaka, any chance she is sending it from a pc or website? |
| 22:04.48 | osaka | nah, def her phone |
| 22:04.48 | noobmonk3y | just thinking a checkbox could be out of place? |
| 22:04.51 | noobmonk3y | hmmmmm |
| 22:04.55 | noobmonk3y | in that case, no idea :| |
| 22:04.57 | noobmonk3y | sorry :( |
| 22:05.01 | osaka | blergh |
| 22:05.10 | noobmonk3y | Does sound like that is happenning though |
| 22:05.25 | osaka | i even tried closing the conversation, locking the keys and screen |
| 22:05.27 | osaka | and put the phone on my lap |
| 22:05.41 | osaka | she answered 2 minutes later and i didnt notice til 1 hour after |
