| 01:09.46 | DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: pondering about a script that monitors bq27200, tears down bme just in time to hinder it shutting down system, then continue monitoring bq27200 until learning cycle complete, and re-enabling bme |
| 01:10.31 | SpeedEvil | I question the point |
| 01:11.02 | DocScrutinizer | errr, isn't that obvious? :-) |
| 01:11.05 | SpeedEvil | In practice - just remember when it hits LMD (of your code) + BMEthreshold+20mV |
| 01:11.25 | SpeedEvil | Then learn LMD (bq) -NAC = real capacity |
| 01:11.55 | DocScrutinizer | sure, but that's not taking care about one time calibration of bq |
| 01:12.09 | SpeedEvil | Indeed. |
| 01:12.22 | DocScrutinizer | only works if you're running this script of yours constantly |
| 01:12.50 | SpeedEvil | So does the BME teardown script |
| 01:13.06 | DocScrutinizer | while mine just takes care about automatic calibration run that otherwise needs attendance |
| 01:13.18 | SpeedEvil | ah |
| 01:13.25 | DocScrutinizer | it's a one-shot thing |
| 01:13.47 | SpeedEvil | Or B) |
| 01:14.09 | DocScrutinizer | B) is? |
| 01:14.15 | SpeedEvil | Poke jonwil to haxxor BME to get it to turn off at 3148mV |
| 01:14.38 | SpeedEvil | No script needed - just works |
| 01:14.48 | DocScrutinizer | hahaha exactly what I pondered 10 min ago, though I didn't think exactly about jonwil |
| 01:15.24 | DocScrutinizer | yeah |
| 01:15.48 | DocScrutinizer | I already tried to figure what doom might come from this - worst case |
| 01:16.06 | DocScrutinizer | unadvertised modem shutdown? |
| 01:16.25 | SpeedEvil | that hits at 2940 or so I think |
| 01:17.01 | SpeedEvil | Dropping the voltage 50mV or so leaves plenty of margin |
| 01:17.14 | SpeedEvil | It's already marginal that it will occasionally learn |
| 01:17.17 | DocScrutinizer | yeah, my thoughts |
| 01:17.31 | DocScrutinizer | actually it does here |
| 01:17.50 | DocScrutinizer | I think it depends on load, and Z of cell |
| 01:18.05 | SpeedEvil | It would also be nice if the voltage where it comes out of ACT_DEAD coul be bumped up a few millivolts too |
| 01:18.21 | DocScrutinizer | haha |

| 02:31.19 | Primes | hi jiero as I understand, I think it should run, but the 1.2 community/developer edition for now looks quite basic (from youtube videos). |
| 02:31.46 | Primes | I will run meego as soon as I buy my microSD card to install it on, hence my question about sizes of card 32 > 16GB of course ;-) |

| 02:35.23 | Primes | It's recommended to use card class 6 ie min 6 MB/sec write. I don't know the comparative speed of the internal flash? |
| 02:36.46 | ShadowJK | iirc the internal is sandisk or samsung/toshiba, it doesn't have a class rating as it isn't *sdhc, but if it was, knowing the manufacturer, it'd probably be rated as class 2 or class 4 |

| 02:37.48 | ShadowJK | there's on for irssi in the repos, iirc... |
| 02:37.55 | Primes | So, I know how to install u-boot. This will boot maemo if there is no meego SD installed, but if there is it boots meego. Is it possible to select manually on boot? The guy who used some different bootloader with debian arm, or the NITdroid project seemed maybe to use different method eg keyboard out or not selects boot OS |
| 02:37.58 | casketizer | yea i know |
| 02:38.09 | casketizer | im lookin for ircii tho |
| 02:38.24 | ShadowJK | Primes, type "run noloboot" on start and it boots maemo |
| 02:38.46 | casketizer | gonna try debian package, cant do much harm with 44mb free rootfs |
| 02:39.30 | Primes | yes shadow I had read that online. However I was preferring something more like my desktop linux/win dualboot, it let's me select the OS from a menu, or times out to boot the default |
| 02:39.47 | ShadowJK | I'd get 4G card anyway, they're cheap, and if you end up with a superslow one it's not too expensive to get another brand/model to try again |
| 02:41.33 | Primes | The 16GB cards are reasonable, maybe the sweetspot eg Adata , PNY, Samsung? The 32GB are more than twice the price. However, I also have a local source of used ones that I don't think will have been hammered to much. So used 32GB is similar price to new 16GB, making it tempting |

| 02:43.40 | jiero | internal flash speed at 20mb/s |
| 02:44.08 | ShadowJK | sequential speeds aren't that relevant |
| 02:44.44 | jiero | o its 20mbits... |
| 02:45.01 | Primes | It seems different manufacturers measured the speed differently too. Some took the read speed rather than the write, some took the write speed when new, others took the write speed under maximally fragmented situation that it would degrade to. |
| 02:45.24 | cehteh | if you need performance, dont buy noname .. and kingston is noname :P |
| 02:45.40 | Primes | for storing camera photos sequential is the usage. Running an OS, there will be more random |
| 02:45.41 | ShadowJK | look at that link, the Class 10 Patriots that do 7Mbyte/s write 19Mbyte/s read take 6000 seconds to boot this guy's operating system. On the other hand, the Sandisk Class 2 with 4M write 10M read boots it in 1800 seconds. |
| 02:45.57 | cehteh | yeah |
| 02:46.22 | casketizer | i found most class 10 cards a frauds. i have serveral class 6 cards that are equal or even faster. fastest card i own is a hama 16gb class 6 doing 8-9mb write and 19mb read. i use it for swap now |
| 02:46.24 | cehteh | sandisk samsung trancend are names |
| 02:46.31 | casketizer | a=are |
| 02:46.50 | ShadowJK | Primes, the cheap ones just run whatever benchmark program that reviewers use, and slap class rating according to that. It's not correct if you look at the definition of class rating, but nobody cares because class is only relevant for digital cameras |
| 02:47.09 | cehteh | hama is extremely noname :P they just buy and rebrand what they could get, if you are lucky thes found a good charged which dropped on the floor |
| 02:47.11 | casketizer | i have a sandisk cls 10 which is significantly slower |
| 02:47.23 | ShadowJK | Sandisk doesn't make a class 10 microsdhc |
| 02:47.39 | ShadowJK | (by extension, if you have one, it's fake) |
| 02:47.43 | casketizer | hama used to be lowend shit |
| 02:47.45 | Primes | yes, nobody validates it externally so they claim what they choose to market it as |
| 02:47.53 | ShadowJK | Primes, it can not be validated externally |
| 02:47.57 | cehteh | class ratings only tell about sequential write speeds .. nothing about random, nothing about reads |
| 02:48.01 | ShadowJK | Because you need knowledge of the internal workings of the card |
| 02:48.08 | ShadowJK | class rating is not a benchmark result. |
| 02:48.28 | casketizer | the sandisk is a semi-prototype |
| 02:48.33 | cehteh | even if the class rating is accurate for using it as disk to boot some OS its completely unrelated |
| 02:48.36 | Primes | I mean there is no independent certification authority to make the ratings comparable directly, it's just an indication now |
| 02:48.43 | casketizer | u cant buy it |
| 02:48.54 | Primes | true cehteh |
| 02:49.10 | ShadowJK | Sandisk also stopped printing class rating on their microsdhc :-) |
| 02:49.15 | casketizer | i got it at an expo on the sandisk booth |
| 02:49.34 | casketizer | that was when i had n95 still |
| 02:49.55 | casketizer | so few years ago |
| 02:50.09 | ShadowJK | Primes, by their nature the class rating is not comparable to determine average expected performance |

| 02:50.34 | Primes | however , one might infer a loose correlation. |
| 02:50.47 | cehteh | not really see the results on that page |
| 02:50.50 | ShadowJK | The definition is: *minimum* *sequential write* in the *best case*. This is somewhat of a contradiction in itself :-) |
| 02:51.30 | Primes | lol, and those ratings are roundings, so I prefer to see some actual MB/sec ratings |
| 02:51.30 | cehteh | and thats the most uncommon access pattern when you boot and run a OS from it |
| 02:51.51 | ShadowJK | Primes, more over, these ratings are *minimums* |
| 02:51.57 | cehteh | Primes: it wont be static, depending on the wear leveling implementation |
| 02:52.02 | ShadowJK | not "it'll go this fast" |
| 02:52.07 | cehteh | and access patterns |
| 02:52.22 | Primes | yes, at one time Sandisk had the best wear levelling, perhaps others are catching up now |
| 02:52.24 | cehteh | one day you can write 6mb/s the next only only 4.5MB/sec |
| 02:52.40 | ShadowJK | it's "I need it to go as fast as X, if it doesn't, my video camera specs says I will have framedrop" |
| 02:53.07 | cehteh | after some use many cards get much slower, the better ones settle at some level, really bad ones drop dramatically in speed |
| 02:53.54 | Primes | yes cehteh, just like 2.5 inch flash SSDs, performance usually degrades., controller dependant. |
| 02:54.04 | cehteh | good SSD's to idle time maintenance to regain performance .. but i doubt SD card firmware does that |
| 02:54.22 | ShadowJK | Kingston cards are so braindead they always run in slow mode :-) |
| 02:54.44 | cehteh | my laptops SSD is very consistent in speed even without TRIM because dmcrypt |
| 02:54.46 | Primes | yes they are more primitive controllers in the SD, but do they also use some overprovisioning? |
| 02:56.40 | ShadowJK | Yeah, because they don't actually test the flash before or after they put it in a *SD card. |
| 02:57.57 | Primes | Ah, so , for ability to reject bad sectors yet still work, thus increasing yield from production. I was thinking more for moving stuff around to minimise erases. |
| 02:58.09 | ShadowJK | It never moves stuff around |
| 02:58.13 | SpeedEvil | Not quite. |
| 02:58.24 | ShadowJK | There's basically no wear leveling of static data |
| 02:58.25 | SpeedEvil | There are always bad sectors in most NANDs |
| 02:58.30 | SpeedEvil | there are expectedd to be |
| 02:58.46 | cehteh | they have ecc for that |
| 02:59.01 | cehteh | same for spinning platters .. errors are expected |
| 02:59.08 | Primes | But when the capacity is full, I think it should be doing intelligent writing and erasing |
| 02:59.21 | ShadowJK | Primes, it doesn't know about capacity |
| 02:59.23 | SpeedEvil | Indeed - the ECC isn't quite for that - it's picking up the errored sectors before they become problematic. |
| 02:59.27 | SpeedEvil | So they can reallocate. |
| 02:59.33 | cehteh | they dont do write verification but they have enough error correction information to cover almost all expected errors |
| 03:00.20 | cehteh | nowadays the read signals (both, ssd and hdd) are quite weak |
| 03:00.36 | ShadowJK | All cards I've had that I've worn out have had nasty failure behaviours. One silently corrupted data. One just hangs indefinitely when touching the bad sector. One does the same, except the bad sector randomly moves around (wear leveling the dead sector) :-) |
| 03:00.58 | cehteh | for hdds its the magnetic impulse which must be over the noise floor for ssds and MLC its the resistance encoding the data |
| 03:01.11 | *** join/#maemo dockane_1 (~dockane@dsdf-4db5dc76.pool.mediaWays.net) |
| 03:01.30 | ShadowJK | And yet writing to other areas of it works full speed without problems, so it's not doing bad sector reallocation or wear leveling over the entire area |
| 03:01.42 | SpeedEvil | They do it over regions |
| 03:01.43 | cehteh | technology is maxed out there is no marigin for error on the hardware level, that all needs to be compensated by clever software and error correction bits |
| 03:01.48 | SpeedEvil | Of a thousand blocks or so |
| 03:02.38 | Primes | cehteh, error correction is more overhead, detection can be done by some CRC on a large size area, if it mismatches, just invalidate the whole block I guess. |
| 03:02.46 | SpeedEvil | At least according to stuff I've read. |
| 03:02.53 | SpeedEvil | Not quite. |
| 03:03.00 | SpeedEvil | Every block written has ECC along with it. |
| 03:03.20 | SpeedEvil | If, on read, the ECC nearly fails to correct the block, then that block is marked bad |
| 03:03.20 | cehteh | Primes: when you expect errors to be seen at read time and dont do write verify then you rely on ECC |
| 03:03.29 | cehteh | otherwise the storage would be leaky .. |
| 03:03.53 | cehteh | and this is usually implemented in some hardwired circruits at least partially |
| 03:04.03 | ShadowJK | In any case, cards don't do any fancy wear leveling or bad block replacements. They're quite primitive, which only makes SpeedEvil's want for raw mode the more relevant, you could use the powerful host processor for doing something more clever, which would not only boost longevity, but also boost speed by a few magnitudes :/ |
| 03:04.06 | SpeedEvil | It's expected there is some error rate - the key is that the ECC can 'always' catch it before it goes bad irrecovera bly |
| 03:04.24 | Primes | cehteh, but ECC can only correct some limited errors, not many bit errors, so it's possible you still could lose data |
| 03:04.47 | SpeedEvil | Primes: The ECC is designed so it has enough depth for worst-case degradation of the memory |
| 03:04.51 | cehteh | ShadowJK: well yes .. i sometimes wonder about all this wear leveling .. why dont you use blocks sequentially until they are worn and then replace them |
| 03:04.56 | SpeedEvil | In principle |
| 03:05.17 | SpeedEvil | cehteh: The hard part is remembering which block is which without doing a media-wide scan. |
| 03:05.21 | ShadowJK | cehteh, you would if you had the CPU and RAM :-) |
| 03:05.29 | Primes | in some implementation, single bit error detection AND correction, it multibit only detect errors can't correct. like hamming coding used for teletext bit recovery |
| 03:05.33 | SpeedEvil | Hence they 'zone' the disk into thousand block or so. |
| 03:05.59 | SpeedEvil | Primes: The ECC can correct and detect multibit errors. |
| 03:06.10 | cehteh | Primes: advanced ECC is quite smart and people building this devices know what errors they expect and tie the algorithms to that |
| 03:06.34 | Primes | cehteh, because the overwriting to those sectors will not be the same throughout. Hence a good controller may choose to move stuff around |
| 03:06.37 | cehteh | for example when you know that a worn out cell sticks to some bit or so |
| 03:06.47 | ShadowJK | cehteh, iirc I once calculated that for a sequential log structured filesystem like that, the intel M25 128 or 256 (I forget which) would use all or most of it's declared 64MByte ram "cache" for the datastructures required to keep track of it all :-) |
| 03:07.13 | cehteh | maybe :) |
| 03:07.31 | Primes | I guess it can speedevil, but when we say multibit, is it 2 or is it 20 bit error run? |
| 03:07.38 | SpeedEvil | Lots |
| 03:08.05 | SpeedEvil | I vaguely recall it's around 1% ECC bits |
| 03:08.59 | Primes | caching reads is fine, caching writes is dangerous unless you have a good UPS, battery backed raid controller, ideally battery backed cache ram by power or supercapacitors |
| 03:09.01 | Termana | good morning |
| 03:09.28 | ShadowJK | Yeah that's what I'm saying, they're not using that massive ram for caching |
| 03:09.38 | SpeedEvil | Caching writes being dangerous only makes sense if you have applications that do the right thing. |
| 03:10.14 | cehteh | i wonder if at least for SSD some big capacitor would work to buffer power glitches and purge some emergency stuff to the flash |
| 03:10.37 | SpeedEvil | Otherwise, you can't assume that you can simply stop the CPU, and the drive will contain a sane filesystem or files. |
| 03:10.43 | DocScrutinizer | cehteh: sure |
| 03:10.52 | cehteh | well at the beginning of this year i made a SSD odyssey .. trying serveral ones each one broken in different ways |
| 03:11.03 | cehteh | until i finally found a reliable (and extra expensive) one |
| 03:11.12 | Primes | cehteh, yes commercial products do this using capacitor, supercapacitor. You're holding up the ram long enough to dump the content to some flash |
| 03:11.20 | DocScrutinizer | cehteh: a 100uF at 350V on a SPSU input that works down to 100V |
| 03:11.45 | cehteh | i was more thinking about a goldcap directly inside the ssd |
| 03:11.59 | cehteh | (to dump its own buffers) |
| 03:12.22 | cehteh | but prolly that isnt feasible |
| 03:12.31 | DocScrutinizer | cehteh: won't work as those circuits are designed to work with a certain VDD |
| 03:12.43 | Primes | cehteh I have some of those gigabyte i-ram drives, they are DDR ram, with battery backup. But batteries need replacing, whereas supercapacitors don't ;-) |
| 03:13.09 | cehteh | yeah |
| 03:13.49 | DocScrutinizer | cehteh: you could charge a goldcap with a step-up converter, and on power glitch enable the LDR to provide 5V |
| 03:14.25 | cehteh | something like that .. dunno at what voltage flash runs internally maybe as low as 3.3V nowadays? |
| 03:14.59 | SpeedEvil | 1.8 or lower |
| 03:15.08 | Primes | you can shift the voltage pretty easily |
| 03:15.29 | DocScrutinizer | on whatever voltage it runs, it will get exactly that voltage via the power supply, as you don't have regulators on those components |
| 03:16.02 | Primes | acard make a nice ANS-9010, it's DDR2 based SSD which is backed by battery. If power fails the battery keeps the content while it copies content onto a compact flash card. |
| 03:16.18 | DocScrutinizer | so no matter how large your capacitor, it will drop below the regular voltage in no time |

| 03:16.56 | DocScrutinizer | LOL |
| 03:17.21 | Primes | use charge pumping to reach and maintain the target voltage ;-) |
| 03:18.06 | Primes | also consider parallel/series configurations. Some people didn't want single point of failure |
| 03:18.54 | DocScrutinizer | ok, allow 2% (assuming the PSU has a precision of +-3% while component tolerates +-5%), then you can calculate how long it takes to make that capacitor drop by those 2% at a given current drawn |

| 03:19.28 | SpeedEvil | Battery voltage is decoupled from component voltages by internal PSUs |
| 03:19.44 | Primes | so, why not just take the capacitor output and regulate it to the target? |
| 03:20.53 | DocScrutinizer | that's exactly what I suggested |
| 03:21.27 | Primes | It's funny how a 3.3 or 5v powered device, can derive +12 and -12v to drive RS232. Maybe you could take a similar approach lol |

| 05:03.51 | Primes | cehteh, so you have more than 4 catalogs configured? |
| 05:03.58 | cehteh | deb http://repository.maemo.org/community-testing/ fremantle free non-free |
| 05:04.05 | cehteh | i am just checking .. only 4 |
| 05:04.18 | cehteh | i once had more (wtf, where did they go) |
| 05:04.31 | ShadowJK | community-testing? wtf is that? |
| 05:04.54 | cehteh | http://wiki.maemo.org/Repository |
| 05:05.13 | cehteh | ShadowJK: somehow i ask myself how that made it into that |
| 05:05.19 | Primes | I think it goes into devel the raw stuff then approved into testing, then migrates into the production version |
| 05:05.25 | cehteh | also i dont know if fapman using those |
| 05:05.36 | cehteh | lemme check fapman |
| 05:06.17 | cehteh | yeah in fapman i have extras-testing |
| 05:06.27 | cehteh | and devel |
| 05:06.32 | cehteh | extras-devel |
| 05:07.02 | ShadowJK | it's not listed on the wikipage |
| 05:07.51 | cehteh | strange .. i dont know where that comes from .. i rarely use HAM |
| 05:08.33 | cehteh | but it exists :P |
| 05:09.05 | casketizer | isnt that the cssu repo? |
| 05:09.11 | ShadowJK | this seems relevant http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/devtools/maemo5 |
| 05:09.13 | cehteh | could be |
| 05:09.20 | casketizer | the installer installs it in ham |
| 05:09.27 | cehteh | ah yes |
| 05:09.49 | casketizer | fap has seperate repo list, it dont use apt's |
| 05:09.58 | casketizer | ham uses apt's |
| 05:10.17 | cehteh | where does fapman keep its configs? |
| 05:10.34 | casketizer | in /root/.fapman |
| 05:10.37 | Primes | do you have devtools repository loaded? Looks like nice things like traceroute there for me |
| 05:10.44 | cehteh | ah |
| 05:10.50 | cehteh | thanks |
| 05:11.02 | casketizer | traceroute is in sdk repo |
| 05:11.26 | casketizer | i have added sdk repo in fapman for stuff like it and gawk |
| 05:11.45 | ShadowJK | looks like this devtools repo is a sanitized version of sdk tools? |
| 05:11.50 | ShadowJK | if it isnt the same |
| 05:12.06 | casketizer | its a subset i think |
| 05:12.16 | casketizer | not sure |
| 05:12.33 | casketizer | i aded sdk and sdk tools in fap |
| 05:13.38 | cehteh | be careful with sdk .. there are huge not optified packages |
| 05:13.43 | casketizer | on 2nd thot i think devtools is sdk tools |
| 05:14.16 | casketizer | ceteh yeah i know |
| 05:14.39 | casketizer | i only use it for small things like gawk, tracert etc |
| 05:14.40 | cehteh | thats why i saied, put it in a chroot .. |
| 05:14.53 | casketizer | i have 44mb free rootfs |

| 05:43.39 | Primes | so it is normal to say yes? |
| 05:43.46 | casketizer | yea |
| 05:44.05 | Primes | is it result of some key or codesigning? |
| 05:44.13 | casketizer | yea |
| 05:44.29 | Primes | and this is not result of some version mismatch? |
| 05:44.35 | casketizer | if u check fapman logs u see it all the time in extras-dev |
| 05:45.02 | casketizer | its some broken ssl certificate |

| 13:58.31 | ShadowJK | So if you want bit-exact you need integer |

| 13:59.30 | DocScrutinizer | well, if the original author was lazy or incompetent enough to not consider how much precision he actually needs on each single arithmetic operation, and also wasn't familiar with fixed-point arithmetic, then yes you probably need to clean up the lazy approach he took that only works due to recent processors implementing floating point coprocessors for the lazy coders |

| 14:03.50 | DocScrutinizer | which on a meta level means: if you don't know how to do it in integer, you have a lack of knowledge, as every task can get solved with fixed point (simplified rule of thumb) |
| 14:05.33 | ShadowJK | Well I always thought that if I wanted to do something where I need a precision of X, like millimetres on a global scale, I'd look at how many millimeters there are on a global scale, and use an integer big enough... |

| 17:59.41 | *** join/#maemo Venemo (~Timur@fedora/Venemo) |
| 18:00.02 | mtnman | doc: i had thought of that, but it seems like it would be like trying to kill a fly with an elephant gun, when a flyswatter would be the ideal solution |
| 18:00.31 | mtnman | (asterisk being the elephant gun) |
| 18:00.59 | DocScrutinizer | though asterisk isn't really meant to get used this way and is quite an overkill, it might be the most straight forward fix for telepathy borkedness regarding direct-IP2IP voip |
| 18:01.39 | mtnman | but it seems like it would be kind of nice to have asterisk running on the n900, but i would imagine it would tax the system pretty heavily and run rather slowly |
| 18:02.18 | mtnman | i would think that one of the other linux sip clients would be ideal, since telepathy does not handle this use. |
| 18:02.21 | DocScrutinizer | mtnman: also note that SIP VoIP always is direct peer to peer, it's only the signalling that runs over a registrar |
| 18:02.42 | mtnman | like linphone or something like that |
| 18:02.52 | DocScrutinizer | (well, modulo special cases like relaying) |
| 18:03.39 | mtnman | doc yes true about peer to peer. and correct, it is the registrar we are trying to avoid here. |
| 18:04.06 | DocScrutinizer | get your own registrar on some box in the visible net |
| 18:04.25 | *** join/#maemo Atarii (~Atarii@77.107.156.213) |
| 18:04.52 | mtnman | with linphone i was able to connect between 2 linux boxes by just specifying user@ip.address. i realize i could set up a registrar, but that is a more complicated situation. |
| 18:04.53 | DocScrutinizer | it will satisfy telepathy/dialer registration needs and also happily forward your invite to a direct IP |
| 18:06.03 | mtnman | i realize that it would work, but it still requires the recipient to register to whatever registrar i would set up. |
| 18:06.40 | mtnman | i'm not trying to argue here, just looking for something that *is* supported by the sip protocol, however, seemingly not by telepathy. |

| 18:07.46 | mtnman | i will look for one of the linux sip clients that may have been packaged for maemo, or else maybe i will try to install one of them manually. |
| 18:07.47 | DocScrutinizer | mtnman: (requires the recipient to register) definitely not |
| 18:08.26 | DocScrutinizer | mtnman: hell, I can call $random-IP even via my sipgate.de account |
| 18:08.58 | mtnman | doc: yes but you can't call a random ip which is an n900 endpoint |
| 18:10.02 | DocScrutinizer | why not? because of NAT etc? that's inevitably true no matter what you do. You need a path to the endpoint and to establish that you need either a public IP or a proxy read registrar |
| 18:11.11 | mtnman | doc: what i have been saying is that with two linux boxes, i can call from one to the other by entering "user@ip.address" |
| 18:11.30 | mtnman | if the recipient is an n900, it doesn't connect. |
| 18:11.58 | mtnman | if it is, say, a debian box running linphone or similar, it connects just fine. |
| 18:12.24 | mtnman | you have told me that telpathy doesn't suppor this. i accept that. |
| 18:13.08 | mtnman | now i am looking to an alternative linux sip client that i can install on my n900 to gain this functionality. |
| 18:13.15 | DocScrutinizer | mtnman: N900 SIP client *should* accept inbound INVITEs |
| 18:13.43 | mtnman | doc: you say "should" and i say "does not" |
| 18:14.21 | mtnman | this is on a my lan so there is no nat issue. i can ssh between the two boxes no problem |
| 18:14.30 | DocScrutinizer | the question is how to get sip client into a state where it accepts the INVITE (read: registered, green dot showing up), and how to find the public IP of N900 to know where to send the INVITE to |
| 18:14.56 | mtnman | read above, i am testing this on a lan. |
| 18:15.09 | DocScrutinizer | yes, so what? |
| 18:15.49 | mtnman | in a situation where i know full well the ip address of each box. the concept of "registered" is what i'm trying to avoid. the green dot is not relevant. |
| 18:16.38 | mtnman | like i said, i'm not trying to argue. seems that telepathy does not support this, although other linux sip clients do. so i will look to another client. that is all. |

| 18:16.55 | DocScrutinizer | sorry I really got no clue how borked telepathy is. Usually SIP RFC says you should send the INVITE to th URL/IP directly when you got no proxy (read sip provider) configured |
| 18:17.07 | DocScrutinizer | same for inbound INVITEs |
| 18:17.31 | DocScrutinizer | should always succeed when addressed to correct USER@ADDR |
| 18:17.34 | GeneralAntilles | ysss, that's the average per-platform. |
| 18:18.15 | mtnman | doc: yes i am able to make that type of connection on other linux boxes, but not with the n900 as recipient. seems there could be some way to configure that, but it may be simpler to just install an alternative sip client on the n900. |
| 18:18.17 | DocScrutinizer | mtnman: sorry I can't help then |
| 18:19.58 | mtnman | thanks anyhow. sometimes just having a conversation in-channel sparks a conversation where someone else will chime in... |

| 18:21.52 | mtnman | does not understand german |
| 18:23.27 | DocScrutinizer | then reading the manual on twinkle.com still may help to shed some light on a few details in a very concise way |
| 18:24.13 | mtnman | doc: i think i have a fairly good handle on the situation. seems the issue is with telepathy or some component thereof. |
| 18:24.24 | DocScrutinizer | twinkle has user name, registrar, outbound proxy. Usual clients mix up and simplify this |

| 21:06.29 | fusi | in direct sunlight u wont see much if any diff |
| 21:06.34 | timeless | but that works without ALS, right? |
| 21:06.45 | fusi | yea its just the screen reflecting sunlight back through itself |
| 21:06.46 | timeless | i'm dealing with a rather stupid "user requirement" |
| 21:06.50 | fusi | nothing to do with als |
| 21:06.53 | timeless | (I feel like I'm at Nokia again) |
| 21:06.55 | fusi | althought he als is used to dim the creen |
| 21:06.57 | timeless | fusi: right, thanks |
| 21:07.02 | fusi | based on ambient light levels |
| 21:07.04 | fusi | hth |
| 21:07.05 | timeless | sure |
| 21:07.14 | fusi | ^ lol |
| 21:07.16 | timeless | sufficient for my response to silly querent |
| 21:07.20 | fusi | (: |
| 21:07.38 | timeless | querent makes silly request, i need very limited confirmation for silly parameter |
| 21:07.39 | smegheadz | timeless, i'm not sure on the product but with some products i work on we have issues with sunlight and to fix this we loop the als so it has the screen at full brightness |
| 21:07.41 | timeless | result: <smack> |
| 21:07.48 | fusi | mmk :) |
| 21:08.21 | timeless | smegheadz: would it be fair to say that such a thing is a bug in your product and / or that integrating ALS is an implementation detail |
| 21:08.40 | timeless | ... and that there should be no need for anything beyond your product to read the ALS in order for this to *just-work* [tm] |
| 21:08.40 | timeless | ? |
| 21:08.57 | timeless | basically there's a "customer" "requiring" "direct access to ALS" |
| 21:09.11 | timeless | claiming this scenario (being outside in sun) as a "use case" |
| 21:09.27 | smegheadz | and is there a use case |
| 21:09.27 | timeless | my claim is that "the system should do the right thing, you don't need to read the ALS for this case" |
| 21:09.44 | timeless | that's more or less the use case... |
| 21:09.44 | fusi | what, like reading lux values? |
| 21:09.44 | timeless | i.e. "no" |
| 21:09.46 | timeless | fusi: yeah |
| 21:10.07 | fusi | only if they arent on a transfletive display |
| 21:10.12 | fusi | c* |
| 21:10.17 | fusi | yer |
| 21:10.18 | smegheadz | whats the product |
| 21:10.36 | timeless | basically... i'm ok with saying "a camera should consider embedding the lux value into its Exif data so that something can consider doing something with it" |
| 21:10.43 | fusi | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transflective_liquid_crystal_display |
| 21:10.45 | timeless | smegheadz: arbitrary web browsers or related software |
| 21:11.02 | timeless | fusi: that link is already purple |
| 21:11.07 | timeless | (it's footnote [1] in my email) |
| 21:11.08 | fusi | heh |

| 21:11.37 | fusi | bbl o/ |
| 21:12.31 | smegheadz | well timeless, if you have software that adjusts the brightness levels already and it's configurable. there is no need for aditional software to access it |
| 21:13.02 | smegheadz | if the products are being used in the street eg ATM's kiosks etc |
| 21:15.08 | smegheadz | ALS is to adjust the screen when it's dark and when it's bright. |
| 21:15.36 | smegheadz | most complaints i've had about screens are when it's dark and they can't see it because the ALS is faulty. |
| 21:18.16 | smegheadz | i'm not sure its a bug in software that directing sunlight on the screen makes it unreadable. is that what your asking? |

| 22:33.10 | DocScrutinizer | timeless: go out in the sun, cover ALS with finger, profit. To answer the result of that execise: screen's properties are not changed by ALS |
| 22:35.29 | DocScrutinizer | timeless: transflexive screens like the N900's are "just working" (more or less) in sunlight. No switch of mode or anything |
| 22:35.42 | DocScrutinizer | timeless: so no reading of ALS needed |
