| 00:40.30 | Billynkid | Having a slight problem not sure if it should be filed as a bug under maemo or ubuntu |
| 00:41.36 | Billynkid | The problem is tracks downloaded have no mp3 extension as such they do not appear as track under media player or mediabox? |

| 00:42.25 | DocScrutinizer | correct |
| 00:43.04 | Billynkid | So is that Ubuntu or maemo? |
| 00:43.06 | DocScrutinizer | missing extension probably confuses tracker - not that it could get worse with tracker anyway |
| 00:43.57 | DocScrutinizer | that's errr... PLEASE KILL TRACKER WITH FIRE |
| 00:44.02 | Billynkid | I'd say maemo as rythmbox the app syncing the mp3 with the N900 recongnizes them |

| 00:45.26 | Billynkid | Can't it just read the header and work it out the way linux does? |
| 00:45.35 | DocScrutinizer | there's a mediaplayer plugin to play arbitrary files or even directories (yes, dirs as in unix mkdir) |

| 00:47.22 | Billynkid | Does plugin have a name? |
| 00:48.03 | Billynkid | Does it mean mediaplayer/box sees the files? |
| 00:48.12 | DocScrutinizer | this mediaplayer plugin is somewhat flawed as it plays directories in no particular sequence (or probably the native inode sequence) |

| 02:59.48 | b-man` | trying to get meego's sgx stuff running on debian on my N900 :) |
| 03:00.05 | johnx | fun fun :) |
| 03:00.11 | b-man` | btw i turned 18 yesterday :) |
| 03:00.15 | johnx | congrats |
| 03:00.46 | b-man` | this week is full of signing paperwork lol |
| 03:01.21 | b-man` | so what have you been up to? :) |
| 03:02.13 | johnx | hacking on meego on pandora a bit |
| 03:02.25 | johnx | right now I'm putting up my own OBS though |
| 03:02.40 | b-man` | awesome - how well is it running? |
| 03:03.44 | johnx | It runs ok with the pandora 2.6.27 (28?) kernel, but there are font rendering issues |
| 03:04.30 | b-man` | hmm |
| 03:04.31 | johnx | meego really targets 2.6.35, so I'm trying to get the N900 SGX kernel drivers patched in |
| 03:05.47 | johnx | it's a bit out of my depth, so the progress is pretty slow :| |
| 03:06.23 | b-man` | i've been having trouble getting udev to recognise the internal and external memory from within debian on 2.6.28/2.6.35 |
| 03:06.49 | b-man` | plus bme is having issues |
| 03:06.54 | johnx | which debian? squeeze? unstable? |
| 03:07.02 | b-man` | squeeze |
| 03:07.27 | johnx | is N900 using HAL? is squeeze still using HAL, or did it finishing transitioning away? |
| 03:08.11 | johnx | s/N900/N900 Maemo 5/ |
| 03:08.16 | b-man` | it's using upower/policykit |
| 03:08.24 | b-man` | same stuff as meego |
| 03:08.31 | johnx | ah, I meant for the memory cards |
| 03:08.44 | b-man` | no hal |
| 03:08.51 | johnx | well, that's lucky at least :) |
| 03:09.40 | b-man` | i'm thinking of using upower/policykit from meego instead to see if it fixes the problem |

| 07:15.23 | RobbieThe1st | Not a big deal |
| 07:15.23 | timeless_mbp1 | hey Stskeeps, et al, i've been asked (by TI) to note that the Flash 10.1 arm thing is really not for end users |
| 07:15.31 | jpinx-eeepc | and go back to using bitlbee in the chroot ;) |
| 07:15.32 | Stskeeps | timeless_mbp1: quite aware |
| 07:15.39 | RobbieThe1st | Why not, specifically? |
| 07:15.46 | timeless_mbp | specifically it's really targeted at vendors |
| 07:16.06 | timeless_mbp | to show off features and to help them look at modern chips from TI |
| 07:16.22 | RobbieThe1st | That's silly |
| 07:16.24 | timeless_mbp | at least, that's the short of it, i got a sizable email on the subject |
| 07:16.27 | timeless_mbp | RobbieThe1st: um |
| 07:16.33 | timeless_mbp | imagine you're a hardware vendor |
| 07:16.45 | timeless_mbp | you're in the business of selling NEW hardware to NEW or existing customers |
| 07:16.51 | Stskeeps | timeless_mbp: my goal was to evaluate it on top of meego arm so that was good enough for me |
| 07:16.54 | timeless_mbp | you don't have any dealings with end users |
| 07:17.02 | timeless_mbp | you don't have support contracts to end users |
| 07:17.11 | timeless_mbp | Stskeeps: indeed |
| 07:17.32 | timeless_mbp | RobbieThe1st: each trial you offer incurs some overhead |
| 07:17.40 | RobbieThe1st | Nah, what I mean is that Adobe already has this. They should be giving copies out also. Either that, or providing this to all TI-based devices |
| 07:17.43 | timeless_mbp | there are support costs |
| 07:17.53 | Stskeeps | i noted the performance in fennec-qt was horrid under meego and hence it was worth seeing if it was a meego-fennec problem or if it worked under microb |
| 07:17.56 | timeless_mbp | RobbieThe1st: well, that's more or less the point |
| 07:18.08 | timeless_mbp | end users should be getting flash10.1 from either adobe or nokia (their vendor) |
| 07:18.12 | timeless_mbp | not from TI |
| 07:18.15 | Stskeeps | so, basically, our fennec-qt sucks on meego ;) |
| 07:18.29 | timeless_mbp | TI's release isn't targeted at end users |
| 07:18.37 | timeless_mbp | it's targeted at companies like Nokia |
| 07:19.04 | RobbieThe1st | So the real question is: How come TI has it, yet everyone else doesn't? Why isn't Nokia or Adobe providing it yet(well, I know the reason: Money)? |
| 07:19.06 | timeless_mbp | RobbieThe1st: roughly, instead of you trying to get a trial from TI, you should complain to Nokia (/Nokia Care) about the fact that it's missing |
| 07:19.17 | timeless_mbp | RobbieThe1st: that isn't the reason |
| 07:19.42 | timeless_mbp | Adobe _probably_ isn't releasing it yet because it probably isn't finished/good enough for whatever their standard is |
| 07:19.57 | timeless_mbp | (or perhaps because they have a stupid entangling license agreement w/ another company) |

| 07:20.36 | timeless_mbp | Nokia _probably_ isn't releasing it yet for probably similar reasons, or perhaps because someone decided to sit on it, or that there was some other schedule for it, or not to do it, or because someone's being annoying |
| 07:20.41 | RobbieThe1st | Either way, it means that -- realisticly -- we won't get it for months, unless someone breaks their agreement and it gets leaked |

| 07:21.22 | timeless_mbp | nope |
| 07:21.31 | RobbieThe1st | That sucks |
| 07:21.32 | timeless_mbp | pointless, be a proper user and complain to Nokia Care directly |
| 07:21.39 | timeless_mbp | i've said this before and i'll say it again: |
| 07:21.52 | timeless_mbp | Nokia Care like all other support systems works on a bucket based system |
| 07:21.58 | timeless_mbp | each complaint is sorted into a bucket |
| 07:22.06 | timeless_mbp | if the bucket overflows, someone gets pestered about it |
| 07:22.22 | timeless_mbp | your goal as an annoyed customer is to manage to get your problem into an overflowing bucket |
| 07:22.35 | timeless_mbp | we *do* get bothered by nokia care when an issue gets raised too often |
| 07:22.57 | timeless_mbp | basically end users do have power here, but not as a silent majority |

| 07:24.14 | timeless_mbp | preferably X should be both relatively consistent and fairly major |
| 07:24.27 | timeless_mbp | if X is a hobbyist site, someone will figure out you're gaming and try to ignore you |

| 07:28.20 | RobbieThe1st | Yea, I know. That's why I'm going to do it, I'm just asking you pointed questions about how to best do it |

| 07:29.20 | timeless_mbp | bothering whichever company's support group (in numbers) is always right |
| 07:29.31 | RobbieThe1st | First time I've seen it though; Only found this channel a good week ago |
| 07:29.34 | timeless_mbp | remember that support tickets cost money, so someone is supposed to monitor them |
| 07:29.51 | Myrtti | I feel so old now ;_____; |
| 07:29.58 | RobbieThe1st | I thought they just ignored them entirely |
| 07:30.02 | timeless_mbp | nah |
| 07:30.04 | timeless_mbp | that'd be stupid |
| 07:30.22 | Myrtti | support tickets are complaints from paying customers |
| 07:30.29 | timeless_mbp | you get a really bad reaction if customers discover you're ignoring your support line |
| 07:30.31 | Myrtti | forum posts etc can be made by anyone |
| 07:30.39 | timeless_mbp | they tell their friends not to buy the product because the support is bad |
| 07:30.49 | RobbieThe1st | Well, judging by the complaint posts I see in the forum... |

| 08:25.28 | SpeedEvil | joga: very little remains in RAM. |
| 08:25.31 | RobbieThe1st | Well, for me it just installs the new kernel on the next reboot. So while technically I'd have to reboot |
| 08:25.35 | timeless_mbp | but if you have libraries loaded for critical services, you're going to somehow need to get those kicked |
| 08:25.40 | timeless_mbp | at a certain point you might as well reboot |

| 08:29.40 | timeless_mbp | for maemo my estimate has been 18 months |

| 08:34.02 | timeless_mbp | RobbieThe1st: oh |
| 08:34.07 | Stskeeps | Jaffa: morn |
| 08:34.19 | timeless_mbp | that's basically "find a bug past the freeze date for a product which isn't shipping" |
| 08:34.21 | timeless_mbp | that means: |
| 08:34.27 | timeless_mbp | 1. wait for that product to get out the door |
| 08:34.32 | timeless_mbp | 2. wait for its replacement to get out the door |
| 08:34.40 | timeless_mbp | that generally averages to around 18 months |

| 09:31.19 | timeless_mbp | when people ask me who my manager, i have to stop and think |

| 09:31.45 | timeless_mbp | RST38h: actually, no |
| 09:31.58 | timeless_mbp | the problem w/ a bug like this is that it incurs merge conflicts to any other pending work |
| 09:32.31 | timeless_mbp | plus there /might/ actually be some changes buried in it which are in fact dangerous |

| 09:35.07 | jarkkom | did they give any reason? I know that everything involving camera has some pretty weird legal restrictions around it |
| 09:35.11 | timeless_mbp | (and 1888/1877/1866 the other toll free numbers) |
| 09:35.26 | timeless_mbp | jarkkom: supposedly a requirement to play a click sound |
| 09:35.40 | timeless_mbp | so yeah, basically it's some idiot's legal restriction |
| 09:35.41 | jarkkom | yeah that's legal requirement in some regions |

| 09:36.18 | crashanddie | just look at the fact that even with headphones plugged in, some sounds are still sent on the loudspeakers |

| 09:38.28 | Appiah | think I'm gonna remove the media player widget for now... cant have my music starting randomly after calls when im at the office.. |
| 09:38.36 | timeless_mbp | it isn't the lawyers' fault |
| 09:38.46 | timeless_mbp | and there's generally a way to avoid the problem and still get work done |
| 09:38.56 | timeless_mbp | it's sometimes a matter of thinking creatively (for about 5s) |

| 09:40.48 | jarkkom | legal system in middle east where that is pressing issue doesn't quite work that way |
| 09:40.53 | RobbieThe1st | If the user manages to download a version(or modifiy it themselves) that's not designed for their region/device, its still Nokia's fault? |
| 09:41.04 | timeless_mbp | RobbieThe1st: often it is |
| 09:41.19 | timeless_mbp | e.g. if the user takes a nokia phone and uses it to crash a cellular network |
| 09:41.25 | timeless_mbp | nokia will get the blame |
| 09:41.25 | RST38h | timeless: There is a version control system to make merging easier |
| 09:41.41 | timeless_mbp | RST38h: ever tried merging 2000 changes? |
| 09:41.45 | Appiah | wait , so they can punish companies for using open OSs? |
| 09:41.46 | RobbieThe1st | Then, how does Nokia protect itself? |
| 09:41.59 | RST38h | And if some developers do not do frequent commits of their work, they are doing their work wrong |

| 09:42.16 | timeless_mbp | not 2000 changes |
| 09:42.19 | RobbieThe1st | Appiah: It would be more like blaming Microsoft because someone got a virus and it brought down their network |
| 09:42.27 | RST38h | timeless: Yes, I did. Hence, frequent commits of work-in-progress. |

| 09:43.35 | crashanddie | RobbieThe1st, actually, if Microsoft had a contract with someone to provide a "secure operating system" that in any way "would not bring down their network", then they could |
| 09:43.47 | timeless_mbp | and ignoring that, it can mean that all of their employees are forbidden to travel there |
| 09:43.54 | timeless_mbp | otherwise they might risk imprisonment |
| 09:44.08 | Appiah | err |
| 09:44.10 | Appiah | censorship |
| 09:44.18 | timeless_mbp | Appiah: um, yeah |
| 09:44.18 | Appiah | *sigh* |
| 09:44.28 | timeless_mbp | the real world is not the utopia you think it is |
| 09:44.37 | timeless_mbp | look at China |
| 09:44.40 | RobbieThe1st | crashanddie: Yet, I don't think Nokia(etc) has ever said that their device/os is perfectly secure? How could that work then? |
| 09:44.43 | Appiah | woaah I never thought the world was an utopia |
| 09:44.46 | RST38h | it is the utopia you do not think it is |
| 09:44.49 | timeless_mbp | a guy gets a nobel prize or something, his wife gets sent to prison |
| 09:44.59 | RobbieThe1st | And yea, things need to be changed. Probably forcefully. |
| 09:45.11 | RST38h | well, he has got his nobel prize exactly for risking to be sent to prizon |
| 09:45.20 | RST38h | So, I do not see how this is irrational |
| 09:45.33 | timeless_mbp | there was another case somewhere else in SE Asia where a guy got into further trouble because someone else tried to *visit* him |
| 09:45.57 | timeless_mbp | RST38h: his wife didn't get a prize |
| 09:45.59 | timeless_mbp | just prison |
| 09:46.03 | RST38h | Well, next time Osama bin Laden tries visiting YOU, make sure you cover the aftermatch in your blog |

| 09:50.55 | RST38h | Arresting a secretary or an engineer is useless |

| 09:51.09 | RST38h | I mean, some stupid middle eastern monarchy may do it on a whim |
| 09:51.52 | RST38h | But states like China or Russia will either go for the top manager or some systemic move that prevents company from functioning |
