| 01:52.51 | BCMM | i suspect that will make it impossible to do USB mass-storage |
| 01:53.36 | TiagoTiago | the theme data don't get stored in ram after it is loaded for the first time? |
| 01:54.28 | MohammadAG | no |
| 01:54.53 | BCMM | in practise, yes, but only due to filesystem caching, would be my guess |
| 01:55.27 | BCMM | it's not like GTK has some central daemon drawing windows |
| 01:55.46 | TiagoTiago | that doesn't sound wise, though i guess it becomes necessary with how little RAM the N900 got |
| 01:55.48 | BCMM | each GTK application will need to load theme data and pixmaps |
| 01:56.09 | BCMM | TiagoTiago: well, how else could it work, really? |
| 01:56.26 | BCMM | you'd need some kind of GTK-theming daemon... |
| 01:56.48 | BCMM | and in any case, it's not going to leave cache unless you really, really need the RAM |
| 01:57.02 | BCMM | since it gets used so much |
| 01:57.09 | TiagoTiago | the data for the current theme would be kept in RAM keeping it fast to read by any program that intends to use the OS's theme |
| 01:57.28 | BCMM | TiagoTiago: in practise, that will happen through caching |
| 01:58.16 | TiagoTiago | programs that use their own theme or even their own GUI rendering engine that doesn't share the OS theme wouldn't care where the OS is storing it's theme data |
| 01:59.21 | TiagoTiago | if it happens with the caching, would it matter where the original data is stored? |
| 02:00.02 | BCMM | TiagoTiago: the kernel doesn't cache files that don't exist any more. taht'd be a bad idea. |
| 02:01.01 | TiagoTiago | I hadn't even thought about mass storage mode, i was worried about what would happen while booting |
| 02:03.16 | TiagoTiago | is there a way i can have the system automaticly copy the data for the currently selected theme into a less volatile location, and always read the theme from there instead of from the themes library? |
| 02:04.11 | BCMM | TiagoTiago: keep gtkrc pointing to a generically-named location, and copy the theme you want to use there when you feel like a change? |
| 02:04.25 | BCMM | (i'm saying it's possible, not advisable) |

| 02:42.29 | doc|home | anyone want to buy a freerunner? Hardly used (because it was never really usable) |
| 02:42.31 | ieatlint | and it was the htc glacier that had 768mb of ram.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_Glacier |
| 02:43.21 | wmarone | I'm gonna keep an eye on Samsung, rasterman has been rumbling about stuff behind the scenes at samsung that deals with exactly what we want |
| 02:43.22 | ieatlint | doc|home: now now, it can run qtopia, which makes it more compatible with nokia products than wp7 |
| 02:43.31 | doc|home | ieatlint: sob |
| 02:43.44 | ieatlint | wmarone: yeah, i'll be curious... i still really like EFL |
| 02:43.56 | ieatlint | EFL on the freerunner really proved to me how awesome it was |
| 02:44.21 | wmarone | I haven't looked at EFL before, but if everything else is true then they'll win over people watching meego |
| 02:44.25 | wmarone | at least in the mobile front |
| 02:44.26 | ieatlint | and samsung has demoed bada, but it's already way behind schedule too.. |

| 02:46.05 | doc|home | ok, that'd be good |
| 02:46.08 | ieatlint | and EFL is great because you build your UIs in EDJE, which is a json-style language not unlike QML. you then compile the EDJE, and reference the objects in it with C |
| 02:46.11 | doc|home | it = meego |

| 02:51.29 | ieatlint | they have not said this device is a phone |
| 02:51.30 | psycho_oreos | nokia is dead meego isn't |
| 02:51.31 | jonwil | I don't see any reason why Nokia wont finish the MeeGo-on-n900 bits that only Nokia can do |
| 02:51.37 | doc|home | psycho_oreos: yeah |
| 02:51.42 | ieatlint | and i would say there is a very high possibility it'll be cancelled altogether |
| 02:51.49 | doc|home | jonwil: I don't see any reason for them to do it :/ |
| 02:52.00 | wmarone | ieatlint: no doubt, Ballmer's probably offering to cut them a check so they do it |
| 02:52.00 | doc|home | jonwil: dead end platform as far as nokia cares now |
| 02:52.24 | jonwil | MeeGo-on-n900 was always a dead platform |
| 02:52.36 | wmarone | not dead |
| 02:52.43 | wmarone | just reference and developmental target |
| 02:52.43 | ieatlint | wmarone: hardly, tiny chance it'll be a success, so it looks good for MS if they can say "yeah, look, you made a meego phone and the WP7 phones outsold it 3 to 1" |
| 02:52.56 | doc|home | jonwil: sure, but meego + nokia wasn't until now |
| 02:53.01 | wmarone | ieatlint: but even MS would get called on that kind of crap |
| 02:53.18 | ieatlint | dunno... from what i hear about the state of meego phones, it's crap |

| 03:00.54 | ieatlint | the fact that development is done internally and secretly |

| 03:07.07 | jonwil | CAL is the special phone configuration area |

| 03:07.13 | doc|home | mikki-kun: I know, but, why bother? do people care that much about meego on the phone? |
| 03:07.16 | jonwil | for things like the wifi mac address |
| 03:07.22 | Dhraakellian | jonwil: ah |
| 03:07.31 | jonwil | BME is the battery management daemon |
| 03:07.33 | wmarone | doc|home: meego is, as an OS, open in ways that maemo is not |
| 03:07.37 | Dhraakellian | the actual GSM stack is also proprietary, isn't it? |
| 03:07.55 | Dhraakellian | given that the only FS GSM stack out there only did 2G, last I heard |
| 03:07.59 | jonwil | on Maemo the telephony stack is closed |
| 03:08.03 | doc|home | Dhraakellian: I think legally they have to be |
| 03:08.03 | wmarone | Dhraakellian: yes, but it also does not run in user space |
| 03:08.08 | jonwil | on MeeGo, the cell modem firmware remains closed |
| 03:08.11 | Dhraakellian | @%$&@ the FCC |
| 03:08.16 | Dhraakellian | seriously |
| 03:08.17 | jonwil | but the userspace bits are open source via ofono |
| 03:08.31 | mikki-kun | ieatlint: i took it for granted harmattan might be built on top of maemo and tweaked and made better and some meego patches being incorporated... might have been the perfec platform to sell for meego-development if made properly |
| 03:08.39 | Dhraakellian | loophole-filled net neutrality, decency laws... |
| 03:08.40 | TiagoTiago | even with the stack itself being closed, couldn't they still have opened the API to use the stack? |
| 03:09.02 | Dhraakellian | as a ham, I suppose I should stay on their good side, but still narf the FCC with a dull rusty spoon |
| 03:09.18 | jonwil | the API for talking to the cell modem is largely open via the ofono source code |
| 03:09.31 | TiagoTiago | ah |
| 03:09.43 | Dhraakellian | jonwil: but the actual communication with the hardware is closed? |
| 03:09.57 | jonwil | the communication with the cell modem is 100% open |
| 03:10.13 | jonwil | well not 100% |
| 03:10.19 | jonwil | but its open |
| 03:10.57 | jonwil | the details of the CPU running the cell modem firmware are proprietary though |
| 03:11.05 | jonwil | its separate to the main CPU |
| 03:11.16 | jonwil | its just a black box you talk to with a documented interface |
| 03:11.33 | wmarone | it's probably some evil low power MIPS thing ;) |
| 03:11.47 | jonwil | Its probably ARM |
| 03:11.50 | Dhraakellian | jonwil: which is the thing to which Stallman et al. object |
| 03:11.55 | doc|home | it's not, it's regulatory |
| 03:11.58 | Dhraakellian | and for good reason, methinks |
| 03:12.17 | jonwil | Also closed is the stuff that sends the WiFi settings to the wlan card (which appears to be closed because its the bit that determines whether to apply US FCC WiFi rules, EU WiFi rules or whatever) |
| 03:12.27 | jonwil | e.g. which channels the WiFi chip can legally talk on |
| 03:12.31 | wmarone | Dhraakellian: RMS and the like may get antsy about it, but you have to know which battles to fight |
| 03:12.43 | TiagoTiago | using those pads in the back, would t be possible to interface the main processor to the modem more directly? |
| 03:12.54 | Dhraakellian | wmarone: still, I think they do have a point |
| 03:12.57 | wmarone | TiagoTiago: if there are even connections for that |
| 03:13.15 | jonwil | Also closed is the PowerVR GPU |
| 03:13.17 | wmarone | Dhraakellian: and the only way they can win that argument is by offering up an alternative, thus the open source GSM stack |
| 03:13.29 | wmarone | however I think they'll hit EDGE about the time everyone is done moving to LTE |
| 03:13.34 | Dhraakellian | yarr |
| 03:14.08 | jonwil | The problem with the opensource stacks is that actually talking to a real cell tower with it would be illegal |
| 03:14.17 | Dhraakellian | wonders if Ron Paul could be convinced to crusade against the FCC as unconstitutional |
| 03:14.29 | Dhraakellian | jonwil: not part-whatever certified? |
| 03:14.38 | wmarone | jonwil: well, if they get it tested and signed off by the FCC, they can't rightly complain |

| 03:16.54 | wmarone | jonwil: true |
| 03:17.05 | Dhraakellian | might be a tad ambitious for a first project, but it'd be cool to have, and I'd probably learn a fair bit along the way |
| 03:18.09 | jonwil | I hope Nokia opens up the GPS instead of doing a half-assed port of the Maemo GPS stack to MeeGo |
| 03:18.31 | jonwil | No reason they cant just document the isi calls and let the community write a gpsd backend for it |
| 03:18.44 | doc|home | jonwil: yeah, because what we're getting from them with today's news is open is something they care about :) |

| 03:19.09 | doc|home | hehehe |
| 03:19.13 | jonwil | but they may care about "less work for us to maintain this stuff" |
| 03:19.28 | TiagoTiago | We need some pissed off hackers to reverse enginner the stuff, pissed off hackers usually get the job done much faster than when the hackers still wanna give the company a chance |

| 03:21.49 | jonwil | pissed off that the only reason it cant support it is because we dont know how to listen to the IncomingCBS signal and because we cant talk to the connectivity UI libraries (libconnui, libconnui-cellular etc) |
| 03:21.55 | TiagoTiago | like how it happened with Kinect, with the PS3 and so on, if the companies didn't piss off the hackers and bragged about the alleged inviolability of their systems things would be much different today |
| 03:22.18 | jonwil | MS actually supported hacking of Kinect |
| 03:22.34 | Dhraakellian | Sony actually let users run Linux |
| 03:22.39 | Dhraakellian | ...and look how that turned out |
| 03:23.11 | TiagoTiago | Didn't they bragged about how it couldn't be hacked and tried to sue some people that were offering a prize to get it hacked? |
| 03:23.30 | TiagoTiago | The problem started when they removed the ability to run Linux |
| 03:23.36 | Dhraakellian | yarr |

| 03:24.22 | TiagoTiago | They also removed the ability on older models with a fw update |
| 03:24.26 | jonwil | which caused Sony to get mad and remove OtherOS |
| 03:24.39 | jonwil | which caused the hackers to get even madder |
| 03:24.47 | jonwil | eventually leading first to the PS3 jailbreak |
| 03:24.52 | TiagoTiago | oh, that part i wasn't aware |
| 03:25.18 | jonwil | then to the discovery of the weakness in the Sony crypto which lead to the secret signing keys being published |
| 03:25.46 | mikki-kun | jonwil: failoverfl0w did iirc the real jailbreaking, the maths behind it and such, geohot just followed those instructions so everyone can get the key "fast" |
| 03:25.47 | TiagoTiago | anyway, seems the bestway to get things hacked faster is to piss off hackers and dare them to do it |
| 03:26.10 | jonwil | and then to the current "lets sue anyone even THINKING about doing something with a PS3 other than playing games or watching media content" lawsuits |
| 03:26.50 | mikki-kun | jonwil: "it only does everything" <--- sony's slogan for the ps3... yeah, except let you hack it to make it do everything again... |
| 03:27.23 | TiagoTiago | Well, with the crappy protection it actually does |
| 03:27.44 | mikki-kun | Sony just sues you then |
| 03:27.59 | jonwil | If I had the information on the IncomingCBS signal and the header files for libconnui and libconnui-cellular, I could have cell broadcast SMS (at least for the cell tower location) working by the end of the month |

| 03:29.48 | mikki-kun | jonwil: let's hope they copied sony with "int getrandomnumber" ^^ |
| 03:30.00 | TiagoTiago | Btw, is the code and instructions to set up your own cryptbreaker PS3 cluster avaiable on the net? |
| 03:30.05 | jonwil | I dont mean the modem firmware |

| 03:32.03 | TiagoTiago | they put a bunch of PS3 together to make a cheap super computer to break encryptions |
| 03:32.26 | TiagoTiago | before Sony locked things down |
| 03:36.54 | mikki-kun | hm... army uses them for image processing |
| 03:37.04 | mikki-kun | i think they have around 2k ps3s for that |

While your computer rsp laptop 5 years ago was designed to run for maybe 5h (if it's been a good one), this powerful little device needs to *run* for days and possibly weeks without recharging. This implies quite a number of fundamental considerations regarding kernel, general user space process (aka app et al) design, hardware drivers, and |
| 13:12.11 | DocScrutinizer | whatnot else. While Nokia understood about that when designing maemo, it's quite obvious that >>90% of developers @ meego never wrapped their head around it and just don't care |

| 14:12.48 | GAN900 | that they could both get themselves in a situation which required answers like this and CONSIDER this idiocy. |

| 14:13.11 | DocScrutinizer | they will survive building mice for M$, and rubber boots for the world |
| 14:13.12 | GAN900 | Probably going to end up as Microsoft's manufacturing arm. |
| 14:13.25 | RST38h | One possibility, yes |
| 14:13.31 | noodles900 | MS know diddly-squat about hardware and Nokia have lost their way but can make excellent hardware. |
| 14:13.38 | RST38h | Or pillaged for patents by MS |

| 14:34.29 | GAN900 | alterego, let's be realistic. |
| 14:34.34 | alterego | DocScrutinizer: we need a viable open mobile linux platform for handsets. |
| 14:34.37 | GAN900 | This is the mobile market |
| 14:34.39 | alterego | MeeGo is the best out there imo |
| 14:34.51 | GAN900 | we don't have generic hardware we can dump software on. |
| 14:35.00 | alterego | At least it has the best backing and best momentum. |
| 14:35.01 | jaska | but it should be generic hw |
| 14:35.01 | RST38h | We do |
| 14:35.09 | RST38h | GAN900: You have got pretty generic HTC hardware |
| 14:35.11 | GAN900 | So without corporate backing from somebody making hardware, there's little point. |
| 14:35.13 | alterego | GAN900: well, we kind of do with the N900 :P |
| 14:35.31 | GAN900 | It'll never hit critical mass, there will never be enough developers, no ecosystem |
| 14:35.33 | RST38h | GAN900: In fact,as there is just a bunch of mobile SoCs, the generic hardware part has been mostly solved |
| 14:35.40 | alterego | Nokia will continue to make MeeGo devices, I imagine just like we have had in the past through the NIT devices. (I hope) |

| 18:13.12 | unixSnob | jacekowski: 25MB for £1 is terrible. In the US, you can get unlimited for $50 flat |
| 18:13.18 | jacekowski | unixSnob: link |
| 18:13.23 | unixSnob | millennium.com |
| 18:13.23 | jacekowski | unixSnob: and that's in roaming |
| 18:13.31 | ruskie | unixSnob, talking about roaming? |
| 18:13.40 | unixSnob | no, that wasn't roaming |
| 18:13.44 | jacekowski | exactly |
| 18:13.49 | jacekowski | here i can get unlimited for £10 |
| 18:13.55 | jacekowski | with 100 minutes |
| 18:13.59 | jacekowski | and 100 texts |
| 18:14.06 | jacekowski | 3-4x cheaper |
| 18:14.16 | unixSnob | 25MB for £1 is a great price for roaming *comparatively*, but obviously you're still getting bent over |
| 18:14.42 | ruskie | in my case 20gb/month - after that they limit rate to 64kbps for 18eur |
| 18:15.04 | ruskie | actually 128kbps |
| 18:15.14 | ruskie | 24eur |
| 18:15.15 | jacekowski | unixSnob: so, $50 is terrible |
| 18:15.26 | jacekowski | unixSnob: in eu you can get unlimited for £10 flat |
| 18:15.29 | ruskie | and that's an addon price to a normal phone plan |
| 18:15.46 | jacekowski | and i have my N900 on plan for £25 with phone free |
| 18:15.57 | unixSnob | jacekowski: you mean in the uk. I belgium â¬10 won't get you more than 400mb |
| 18:16.10 | jacekowski | unixSnob: again, bullshit |
| 18:16.19 | unixSnob | jacekowski: check base.be |
| 18:16.23 | jacekowski | unixSnob: on base i had 500M for 5 euro |
| 18:16.27 | jacekowski | unixSnob: last week |
| 18:16.34 | jacekowski | when i went to fosdem |
| 18:16.47 | unixSnob | base is the cheapest mainstream provider, second only to mobilviking -- who only does data |

| 18:17.19 | unixSnob | jacekowski: 500M for 5 is an improvement, but nowhere near unlimited for £10 |
| 18:17.23 | unixSnob | so you've made my case |
| 18:17.48 | jacekowski | well, that means you could get ~4G for $50 |
| 18:18.12 | jacekowski | have you tried downloading more thatn 4G on your $50 plan |
| 18:18.27 | jacekowski | because i remember when i had hmm, 7 years ago unlimited plan |
| 18:18.36 | unixSnob | jacekowski: it's not cummulative like that. With base, when you run out of quota, it eats your credit at around â¬1/meg |
| 18:18.49 | unixSnob | so you have to take care to only top up â¬10 at a time |
| 18:19.00 | jacekowski | yes |
| 18:19.07 | jacekowski | but you could only download 500M before being limited to submodem speeds |
| 18:19.07 | unixSnob | and then you have to wait up to a day or two for the next credit to become usable |
| 18:19.12 | jacekowski | no |
| 18:19.18 | jacekowski | i had to only wait like 60s |
| 18:19.22 | unixSnob | jacekowski: chance |
| 18:19.30 | unixSnob | jacekowski: I had to wait a day and half once |
| 18:19.50 | jacekowski | and when i went to US and bought US prepaid with $100 on it |
| 18:19.52 | unixSnob | and worse, I started using it half a day later.. when it didn't get validated, and got burned |
| 18:20.00 | jacekowski | i used up everything in hour |
| 18:20.08 | unixSnob | jacekowski: should have used millennicom |

| 21:02.39 | ruskie | jacekowski, and doing it with WP7 will be what?? just another htc as well... |
| 21:03.03 | jacekowski | yes but with windows they don't have to compete with htc |

| 21:07.15 | jacekowski | well, thing is wp7 market is not so tight yet |

| 21:08.01 | ruskie | and considering previous mobile windows incarnations... and their successes... |

| 21:08.20 | jacekowski | not designed for phones |
| 21:08.23 | jacekowski | but for tablets |
| 21:08.25 | jacekowski | but it did the job |
| 21:08.33 | jacekowski | and it was platform that replaced palm |
| 21:08.40 | ruskie | I seriously hope samsung will be able to fill in the gap for decent open linux devices... |
| 21:08.58 | ruskie | jacekowski, actually it was palm that didn't innovate that replaced palm |

| 21:09.46 | jacekowski | at the moment we only have aging n900 |
| 21:10.07 | DocScrutinizer | and Elop is just proving his ignorance when talking about meego it this hw centric way |
| 21:11.11 | DocScrutinizer | see for example SHR (yeah shutup), it's running on platforms: Openmoko, HTC, Palm, N900... |
| 21:11.35 | pupnik | shr is what? |

| 21:12.13 | ruskie | DocScrutinizer, and is it actually running properly? or haly brokenly? |
| 21:12.15 | budfive | how's the recent shr? |
| 21:12.24 | ruskie | on all those platforms... |
| 21:12.26 | DocScrutinizer | and as long as Nokia only would be willing to keep the bootloader uncripp^H^Hsigned and publish specs like they did in wirelessmobileapi.com... |
| 21:12.35 | Gorroth | guys... it's a phone. and a company. you don't have to use their stuff if you think it sucks |
| 21:12.52 | Gorroth | motorola is always willing to sell you a simple phone |
| 21:12.54 | pupnik | Gorroth: go away |
| 21:13.05 | Gorroth | just telling it like it is |
| 21:13.25 | ruskie | Gorroth, so is nokia... s40 is according to the info getting more investment |
| 21:13.35 | DocScrutinizer | Gorroth: your point please |
| 21:13.44 | Gorroth | DocScrutinizer: my point is if you don't like it, stop buying |
| 21:14.07 | DocScrutinizer | my point is: if you came here trolling, you better stay away |
| 21:14.09 | Gorroth | ruskie: yeah, nokia will sell you cheap phones too |
| 21:14.21 | Gorroth | DocScrutinizer: i just see a lot of bitching is all |
| 21:14.29 | ruskie | but this has nothing to do with who will sell me what... |
| 21:14.44 | ruskie | so I still don't get your point in you entering this conversation |
| 21:14.46 | jacekowski | Gorroth: the problem is that nokia was only really open source friendly company in years |
| 21:14.53 | jacekowski | Gorroth: and they made good devices |
| 21:15.03 | DocScrutinizer | Gorroth: right ATM I see *you* bitching |

| 21:15.41 | wmarone | I like how criticising corporations is now somehow bad |
| 21:15.50 | wmarone | we're just supposed to ignore what they do and go somewhere else |
| 21:15.51 | jacekowski | we don't want perspective here |
| 21:15.54 | jacekowski | we want to cry alone |
| 21:16.01 | jacekowski | without anybody trying to make us happy |
| 21:16.04 | ruskie | wrong place for perspective... |
| 21:16.06 | Gorroth | wmarone: yeah, that's how capitalism works |
| 21:16.08 | wmarone | "apple's walled garden is bad" "go somewhere else!" |
| 21:16.10 | jacekowski | shit happened and we have to deal with it in our own way |
| 21:16.15 | Gorroth | in fact, it was capitalism that brought nokia to this decision |
| 21:16.26 | wmarone | Gorroth: I'll still criticize what I consider bad decisions and poor policy |
| 21:17.05 | Gorroth | wmarone: okay, and i'll bring perspective |
| 21:17.05 | wmarone | corporations aren't supposed to be immune from criticism |
| 21:17.05 | wmarone | unless they're just allowed to roll over everyone and do whatever they want |
| 21:17.07 | DocScrutinizer | Gorroth: if you don't like our topic here, you aren't forced to join this channel |
| 21:17.15 | wmarone | (and yes I realize they enjoy the almost total lack of consumer protections in the US) |
| 21:17.33 | Gorroth | meh. i'm in the whole "i don't really care what nokia does" camp. best thing about it is i can either choose to buy their stuff in the future or someone else's. i just don't care much in the end |
| 21:17.46 | ruskie | Gorroth, then why exactly are you in here? |
| 21:17.52 | wmarone | Gorroth: obviously if you don't care then this isn't the place to be |
| 21:18.01 | wmarone | I bought my N900 precisely because I -did- care |
| 21:18.02 | Gorroth | ruskie: well, i still like maemo. i thought the topic of discussion was that OS |
| 21:18.24 | wmarone | Gorroth: and it'll probably slowly return to that |
| 21:18.32 | ruskie | in a week or two... |
| 21:18.33 | wmarone | as much as it can |
| 21:18.34 | DocScrutinizer | Gorroth: please, don't make up basic boolean logics as your new paradigm to teach us so we'll see the truth |
| 21:18.37 | Gorroth | i care to the point that it works for me |

| 22:17.17 | alterego | Well, that depends on how it's used. It does promote the idea of OSS though |
| 22:17.33 | DocScrutinizer | actually that'd be the most reasonable option, or at least he most logical one: just cancel meego, assign the crew to maemo, and open up the sources proper, so community truly can contribute.

| 22:23.49 | DocScrutinizer | and of course with hackers like Harald Welte things become possible you never thought might ever be |
| 22:24.25 | johnx | DocScrutinizer, I imagine a lot of the hardest work is actually figuring out the right obscure memory ranges to poke in order to make the device do something. In that sense, the Android drivers are probably a very useful resource |

| 22:25.29 | DocScrutinizer | though Harald disassembled the WinMo6 kbd driver of Eten M800 and wrote a linux driver, during a flight from Germany to Taipei |
| 22:25.33 | RST38h | johnx: Dunno. Do you still bet on Meego? |
| 22:25.46 | Corsac | RST38h: hu, what's that? another OS from samsung? |
| 22:26.03 | johnx | RST38h, tenatively: yes. A lot of the manufacturers involved in LiMo don't have great linux track records |
| 22:26.39 | RST38h | johnx: the presentation looks like a good start, and one manufacturer the size of Samsung is enough |

| 22:43.31 | MohammadAG | vmlinuz-2.6.37-6.1-adaptation-n900 |
| 22:43.31 | rm_you | been hearing weird things, i always just come here to get it boiled down and with all of the BS and unfounded speculation stripped out |
| 22:43.43 | MohammadAG | 2.6.37-6, in case you missed it |
| 22:43.54 | vi_ | whooa, whats that mo? |
| 22:43.58 | johnx | rm_you, not a smart move these days. lot's of speculation floating around. even from me :| |
| 22:44.22 | MohammadAG | vi_, meego kernel as of 8 February |
| 22:44.43 | vi_ | is meego useable? |
| 22:44.53 | MohammadAG | http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/1.1.90/1.1.90.2.20110208.4/handset/images/meego-handset-armv7l-n900/ |
| 22:45.01 | MohammadAG | for developers |
| 22:45.05 | MohammadAG | (with a second N900) |
| 22:45.06 | johnx | sooo, Nokia's going to release a meego phone this year. Mobile World Conference is on now where we're expecting MeeGo phone news from Nokia and a different Linux phone from Samsung |
| 22:45.14 | alterego | MohammadAG: did you see my comments earlier about a more up-to-date maemo with meego closed binaries? |
| 22:45.15 | rm_you | hrmrm |
| 22:45.40 | MohammadAG | alterego, nope |
| 22:45.57 | johnx | rm_you, after they release the meego phone they're going cut their meego involvement down to R&D mode, for the possible far future |
| 22:45.58 | MohammadAG | 2.6.37 with MeeGo bme? |
| 22:46.19 | alterego | Basically, yes. |
| 22:46.24 | MohammadAG | and MeeGo mce |
| 22:46.29 | alterego | I was thinking we could do it for the cssu |
| 22:46.35 | alterego | A _proper_ cssu :) |
| 22:46.41 | MohammadAG | I suggested that months ago, though I think no one noticed it :P |
| 22:46.47 | johnx | rm_you, Intel says they're still committed to meego dev. that's everything we *know* boiled down. Now, there's tons of speculation and plans for the future |
| 22:46.57 | MohammadAG | the CSSU is proper alterego :) |
| 22:47.03 | alterego | Well, I think I mentioned it about 8 months ago too :P |
| 22:47.19 | MohammadAG | in fact, I'm replacing osso-notificationlightscp in the next CSSU update |
| 22:47.23 | rm_you | yeah, i imagine |
| 22:47.27 | MohammadAG | with a FOSS clone |
| 22:47.32 | MohammadAG | osso-applet-notificationlight* |
| 22:47.38 | alterego | Well, we need a complete FOSS user space. |
| 22:47.46 | pupnik | this will have gross repurcussions worldwide |
| 22:48.00 | MohammadAG | alterego, that's why I suggested rewriting parts bit by bit |
| 22:48.02 | pupnik | will TI be as eager to open-source their stuff now? |
| 22:48.08 | MohammadAG | the mediaplayer was a start |
| 22:48.28 | alterego | pupnik: they've been eager? :P |
| 22:48.33 | MohammadAG | I suggest rewriting the control panel applets, those should be easy, then we can fire up portrait mode in the control panel |
| 22:48.37 | GAN900 | johnx, device, not "phone" |
| 22:48.45 | alterego | MohammadAG: I think maybe dialer should be next. |
| 22:48.59 | MohammadAG | Fix some Qt bugs, fix hildon-desktop, add portrait support |
| 22:49.08 | johnx | GAN900, isn't that what the TSA calls a bomb? |
| 22:49.12 | jacekowski | and then what |
| 22:49.15 | MohammadAG | indeed, though DocScrutinizer says it's not feasible |
| 22:49.17 | jacekowski | if we won't have phone to use it |
| 22:49.30 | MohammadAG | the N900's still there jacekowski |
| 22:49.36 | MohammadAG | I imagine it'll be there for quite some time |
| 22:49.39 | jacekowski | n900 is already obsolete |
| 22:49.44 | GAN900 | johnx, I get the impression it could be a tablet. |
| 22:49.53 | RST38h | johnx: No, it is what DoE calls a bomb |
| 22:49.54 | MohammadAG | the N900 was obsolete from day 1 |
| 22:49.58 | rm_you | GAN900 / johnx: yeah, had to be careful not to say "my device" on international flights with n8x0 :P |
| 22:50.00 | GAN900 | johnx, I don't think the timeline for the budget is that clear, either. |
| 22:50.15 | kennae | is there an easy way to lock display brightness to custom level and disable the light sensor? |
| 22:50.15 | DocScrutinizer | MohammadAG: I never said it's not feasible |
| 22:50.24 | alterego | jacekowski: to you maybe, but I'm still happy to use it .. And develop for it ... |
| 22:50.29 | MohammadAG | then you said it's hard to do :p |
| 22:50.37 | DocScrutinizer | MohammadAG: I said it's friggin impossible to make sure it's feature-complete |
| 22:50.44 | jacekowski | alterego: how does it feel to develop on dead platform? |
| 22:50.51 | RST38h | rm_you: You could have just called it "my junk", fits n8x0 perfectly well =) |
| 22:50.56 | rm_you | lol |
| 22:50.59 | alterego | jacekowski: quite good thanks .. |
| 22:51.00 | DocScrutinizer | MohammadAG: a braindead dialer can be written in 10 minutes |
| 22:51.01 | rm_you | at the time i loved the thing :P |
| 22:51.01 | MohammadAG | jacekowski, like it felt 12 months ago :P |
| 22:51.15 | johnx | jacekowski, to develop on a dead platform things that can be used on future hardware? not too bad |
| 22:51.15 | RST38h | rm_you: rrrrriiiight!!!! |
| 22:51.20 | MohammadAG | DocScrutinizer, it can always be feature-complete |
| 22:51.27 | alterego | jacekowski: it'll be dead to me when I stop using it, I couldn't give a crap about you continual negativity :P |
| 22:51.28 | MohammadAG | though Maemo 7 might be out the time that happens |
| 22:51.34 | jacekowski | johnx: if there will be future hardware |
| 22:51.52 | jacekowski | alterego: it's reality |
| 22:51.58 | jacekowski | alterego: you are overly optimistic |
| 22:51.58 | johnx | jacekowski, uhm. Are you predicting an end to smartphones? |
| 22:52.01 | DocScrutinizer | MohammadAG: It can't - unless you decompile and RE every single byte of original |
| 22:52.02 | alterego | jacekowski: it's your reality ... |
| 22:52.08 | joga | jacekowski, the phone suddenly dies? |
| 22:52.17 | alterego | jacekowski: to me the platform is still unsurpassed. |
| 22:52.35 | johnx | alterego, in fact, it's so hot, it's on fire :D |
| 22:52.37 | alterego | Hell, I still write the occasional app for my Acorn Risc PC ... |
| 22:52.37 | joga | I'm still very happy with it, I don't dev for it but at least it's easy to hack if I want to |
| 22:52.38 | pupnik | to me also |
| 22:52.40 | RST38h | sighs and goes to sleep. The idiot box gods were merciful tonight and showed Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus |
| 22:52.58 | alterego | g'night RST38h |
| 22:53.00 | pupnik | and there's more fun stuff available for n900 now than ever |
| 22:53.04 | DocScrutinizer | MohammadAG: nevertheless a Cdialer would be a really worthy project |
| 22:53.09 | johnx | RST38h, 'night |
| 22:53.27 | jacekowski | well, telepathy is still there |
| 22:53.30 | MohammadAG | I'm happy with the mediaplayer rewrite |
| 22:53.34 | MohammadAG | progressed a lot today :) |
| 22:53.35 | jacekowski | and you can use telepathy as a backend |
| 22:53.42 | jacekowski | or something |
| 22:53.44 | DocScrutinizer | and feature completeness against the original isn't the benchmark, our specs and what we need it to do are |
| 22:53.50 | alterego | I think we should bring in ofono |
| 22:53.53 | kennae | cant wait to see your new mediaplayer |
| 22:53.58 | pupnik | congrats MohammadAG |

| 22:55.06 | alterego | jacekowski: why should he do something for a dead platform? |
| 22:55.31 | DocScrutinizer | MohammadAG: see, Nokia MUST (rfc2119) provide e.g 911 dialing even without SIM. If I know and accept a Community-dialer doesn't support that, so what? Nobody can sue me for using a dialer that doesn't support 911 |
| 22:55.46 | alterego | jacekowski: if you're so against developing for a "dead platform" why the f* are you asking for features? |
