05:36.10QantouriscOk weird question: why would i NOT want to by a phone with harmattan ?
05:37.36TronicQantourisc: Because it is not available (yet or in your country), or because you are afraid there won't be enough apps for it.
05:37.55QantouriscOk sorry, then i'm in the wrong channel :)
05:37.56TronicBecause Android or iPhone5 may have flashier UI?
05:38.10QantouriscUI is no concern of mine :)
05:38.19TronicJust answering the question :)
05:38.23QantouriscI was kinda asking for N900 and what os is on there
05:39.35TronicWell, Harmattan is the next best thing to N900. Not quite as open but still based on Debian and you have pretty much control and the Store is very friendly towards open-source developers too.
05:39.53Qantourischow is it not as open ?
05:39.59TronicAegis security system.
05:40.05*** join/#harmattan spenap (~spena@nat/nokia/x-iauihfmkuymzlsao)
05:40.05Qantourisca right ?
05:40.11QantouriscTronic: can i kill that ?
05:40.46TronicOn developer devices at least, pretty much, yes.
05:41.00TronicI suppose you could even install an entirely different OS if you wanted to.
05:41.18QantouriscTronic: so it will depend on the final hardware then ?
05:41.31QantouriscTronic: what differnt os ? :)
05:42.06TronicCommunity Meego or some other Linux-based system, I suppose.
05:42.40Qantouriscow wait ... this channel is about the bastard child of meego and meamo ?
05:42.44TronicI'm pretty sure you don't actually want to do that (any more than you would on N900) because the other OSes will suck.
05:42.47*** join/#harmattan MohammadAG (~MohammadA@pool-72-89-152-214.nycmny.fios.verizon.net)
05:43.10TronicHarmattan is Maemo 6 and it implements Meego APIs.
05:43.27Qantourischopes meego grows up fast ?
05:43.32TronicNot really a combination of the two, just another version of Maemo.
05:43.43Qantouriscdon't suppost i can upgrade n900 to m6 ?
05:43.50TronicWith entirely new UI (based on Qt this time).
05:44.08TronicYou won't be able to upgrade.
05:44.30Qantouriscpfff ... the mobile market still didn't mature imo
05:46.44*** join/#harmattan xarcass (~igorsazon@her.rian.ru)
05:46.55TronicBy mature you mean become PC?
05:47.29Qantouriscstandard, open, upgradable
05:47.34TronicOr more precisely, x86/Windows.
05:47.45Qantouriscno more childisch money sceams
05:47.54TronicMaybe I need to remind you that not even desktop Linux or OS X has that sort of compatibility.
05:48.00QantouriscNote: last word spelled wrong
05:48.23QantouriscTronic: can you give an example ?
05:48.52TronicSo, you think it is because of money that desktop Linux has no cross-version/cross-distro compatibility to speak of, while at the same time Windows 7 can still run software written from Windows 95 just fine?
05:48.58Tronic*for
05:49.59TronicIt is a rare exception to have such compatibility and in fact x86/Windows remains the only platform that has it.
05:50.05QantouriscTronic: actaully, they are working on that :) (not that I like the solution entirely LSB)
05:50.26QantouriscI was not talking about software compatiblity actually
05:50.37TronicQantourisc: Yeah, as if standardizing libjpeg and a couple of others really helps. It won't fly, sorry.

05:51.27QantouriscTronic: so my current 2 options are: wait and see what N950 bring
05:51.39Qantouriscor buy N900 before you can nolonger get them ?
05:52.04TronicQantourisc: Wait one more month to get a N9 and you'll be happy with it.
05:52.53QantouriscTronic: how do you know that ?
05:52.54*** join/#harmattan zarlino (~zarlino@dynamic-adsl-94-37-151-6.clienti.tiscali.it)
05:52.58emanQantourisc: Definitely better to wait for the N9 rather than N900. N900 is nice, but bulky and starved of RAM
05:53.05wazdQantourisc: N950 is not on sale anyway
05:53.16*** join/#harmattan antman8969 (~anthony@pool-96-239-32-4.nycmny.fios.verizon.net)
05:53.23QantouriscTronic: how do you know Aegis wont bite me ?
05:53.26TronicN900 still (obviously) offers more software, and it has physical QWERTY, but let's face it, the hardware is badly outdated. It doesn't have enough RAM so even if you overclock, it is still too slow.
05:53.45Qantouriscit's still to slow ?!?
05:53.56TronicAlso, it has very crappy Maps (and the open-source alternatives aren't much better) while N9 has proper maps/navigation.
05:54.16Qantourisc256ram
05:54.20Qantouriscthat should be enough ...
05:54.25TronicThe browser of N900 is OK but it doesn't have nearly as good HTML5 support as N9 does.
05:54.45TronicWe are talking about desktop Linux (essentially) running on a cellphone.
05:54.46QantouriscTronic: neither will N9 in a few yaers
05:54.52Tronic256 MB is certainly not enough.
05:55.03Tronic1 GB is barely enough but several gigabytes would be better.
05:55.18QantouriscTronic: .... what server stack do you guys run !?!
05:55.38Qantourisclet me take a look at my desktop:
05:55.43TronicDo you realize how memory-hog all this software Linux runs is?
05:56.10Qantourisc4.7GB in use: 1.3GB firefox (many open windows, memory hog, better use another brower)
05:56.19TronicJust to get your empty desktop you need to have kazillion libraries loaded, plus daemons such as dbus. Message passing based on XML documents...
05:56.21Qantourisc1GB opera (also a TON of open window, less of a hog)
05:56.35Qantouriscchronim 777M <= not sure why it's this mutch :)
05:56.43Qantourisc223M thunderbird (lots of mails)
05:57.06Qantouriscbut after that ...
05:57.13Qantouriscwe had the memory hogs
05:57.18Qantouriscand ram usage drops :)
05:57.35TronicIf you think of starting up a web browser, be prepared to spend a few hundred megabytes just for that. And a few hundred more if you use multiple websites at the same time. Or if you leave some AJAX-using site open for a few hours as it will keep leaking RAM all the time (this is a feature of Javascript).
05:59.08*** part/#harmattan djszapi_ (~lpapp@85-156-94-154.elisa-mobile.fi)
05:59.11TronicOn top of that you should have some cache RAM because Linux really sucks at I/O.
05:59.23Qantouriscdon't we love bloat :/
05:59.45TronicIf the system disk suffers of high I/O latencies (because you didn't have enough disk cache available), everything will freeze for tens of seconds.
05:59.48wazdWell, right now N950 consumes about 500 Mb, running for 3rd day, music, video, web, meecast, mail and clock opened :)
05:59.52Qantouriscbtw anyone considered using a browser adjutesd for mobile ?
06:00.04Qantouriscwazd: !?!
06:00.11Qantouriscwazd: where is all this going to ?
06:00.18TronicI guess this is because most communication happens via UNIX sockets that reside on the filesystem, so when the disk is blocked, nothing works.
06:00.20Qantouriscand where is the dam optimalization team !?!
06:00.31wazdQantourisc: memory leaks I guess
06:00.49Qantouriscwhere is the world going to ?
06:00.57wazdQantourisc: remember, it has really old firmware, back from june
06:01.47Qantouriscok :)
06:01.50Qantourisc(but still :p)
06:02.08wazdall closed - 370 Mb
06:02.20wazdwhich clearly indicates memory leak :)
06:02.22Qantouriscwazd: including er excluding cache ?
06:02.39wazdincluding I guess
06:02.41Qantouriscwazd: that also means you'll need to reboot your phone once in a while :/
06:02.54Stskeepsalways exclude cache, cache is well-used memory
06:02.54Qantouriscwazd: well open a terminal and run free -m ?
06:03.06SpeedEvilTronic: Disk and socket operations do not mutially block
06:03.13hiemanshuI have some un-uploaded pics of N950, maybe I should up them
06:03.29SpeedEvilTronic: The lag is often due to swapping.
06:03.46specialhas 688mb used with nothing open and 26 hours up
06:03.54wazdtotal 985, used 806, free 178
06:03.59QantouriscI'll wait for the N9, aks here if the aegis doesn't piss me of so bad, and then decide ?
06:04.16Stskeepswazd: how much of it 'cached'?
06:04.32Qantouriscwazd: second line :)
06:04.43Qantourisc"-/+ buffers/cache:"
06:05.04wazd-/+ buffers: 790, free 194
06:05.18TronicSpeedEvil: To open the socket you must first access the filesystem, I guess this is the problem.
06:05.23Qantouriscwazd: so where the HELL did you get the number 370MB ?
06:05.29Qantourisccase that's wrong then :p
06:05.40SpeedEvilThe socket s typically resie on /tmp - which is often in ram
06:05.52TronicSpeedEvil: Not really related to Harmattan, it is just something that I am suffering of on desktop Linux.
06:06.14TronicSpeedEvil: To access /tmp, you need to access / first.
06:06.26SpeedEvilNo you don't
06:06.30TronicSpeedEvil: Typically it will be cached but especially near OOM it might not be.
06:06.32wazdQantourisc: Energy Profiler, don't blame me :D
06:06.55SpeedEvilAccessing a mounted filesystem does not require you to touch the filesystem on which that filesystem is mounted.
06:07.10TronicSpeedEvil: You need to check the permissions of all the parents, right?
06:07.20SpeedEvilI've fairly often actually unplugged / - and had a chroot carry on happily running.
06:07.20xarcassguys, don't forget that there are many apps that are in 'preloaded' state on N950 - they eat a lot of memory
06:07.23SpeedEvilTronic: No
06:08.04wazdxarcass: yeah, like feed updates, mail and stuff
06:08.19SpeedEvilTronic: Once a filesystem is mounted, changing the permissions of the mount point do not change the permissions of the underlying directory
06:08.34xarcassps xaw|grep prestart
06:09.13*** join/#harmattan radiofree (~jamesthom@nat/nokia/x-kjksiwpykvcckevi)
06:09.54TronicSpeedEvil: You still need permissions to parents of the mount point.
06:10.07TronicSpeedEvil: So, in order to access /tmp, you need to verify that you can access /.
06:10.16*** join/#harmattan zarlino (~zarlino@dynamic-adsl-94-37-151-6.clienti.tiscali.it)
06:10.55SpeedEvilThe system always has the / node in memory
06:11.01SpeedEvilinode permissions
06:11.23TronicEven in OOM situation?
06:11.26SpeedEvilyes
06:11.29TronicWhy?
06:11.41SpeedEvilBecause it has to, in order to be able to use the filesystem
06:12.03TronicI don't really see why it couldn't read it from the disk when needed, the same way any other node is read.
06:12.30SpeedEvilBecause IIRC it's stored in the same area that tells it where on what device it should be looking.
06:12.44TronicAnyway, even if that is the case, wouldn't we still have the problem with /var/tmp and other places that are not directly at fs root?
06:12.58QantouriscSay another question: what is the point to run a standard linux stack, if aegis is going to lock it down anyway ?
06:13.12QantouriscIn that case I might aswel get me an iphone or android.
06:13.19QantouriscThey are just as worthless then
06:13.30QantouriscOr wait no, worth more, since they have more apps !
06:13.43SpeedEvilFrom memory, the filesystem path of open filesystems is cached too.
06:13.54SpeedEvilIt's been a long time since I looked at this though.
06:14.04SpeedEvilQantourisc: Wait and see.
06:14.41emanI don't think open inodes can be dropped. And pwd of processes would be open, so the dcache leading to root would need to be in memory
06:14.44SpeedEvilAegis could vary from making the device almost unusable for large fractions of the users, to being a minor irritation, to being a positive benefit, depending on how it's configured.

06:24.03Qantourisc"ow" ...
06:24.26Qantouriscso euu ... it won't do what I need/want it to do on release date then
06:24.46Troniceman: Ok, sounds sensible. Looks like I need to find another hypothesis for the unresponsiveness.
06:25.31TronicThat thing is a bitch to debug because, well, the system is completely unresponsive when you should be probing it.
06:26.28emanQantourisc: The N9 is already available for pre-order at one of Australia's largest electronics retailers so that should be an indicator
06:26.49emanTronic: Linux desktop or N900?
06:27.17Troniceman: Desktop.
06:27.59Qantouriscstill doesn't like the smartphone desktop ... i'm almost tempted to use a headset and a latop in a backpack !!!

06:32.17emanAny QML experts here?
06:33.38spenapeman, real experts are in #qt-qml
06:33.51hiemanshueman: just ask if someone knows they'll answer
06:35.04emanspenap, hiemanshu: Okay, thanks
06:35.29emanI'm just experiencing annoying problems with Rectangle elements not anchoring properly with other elements
06:35.54emanAnyway, I'll just continue mucking around for a little while. hrmmm.
06:36.18hiemanshueman: I have used Rectangles and anchor based layouts, what about them?
06:37.17emanJust coding up an app on N950. Have two rectangles for different sections of a form. The second rectangle overlaps the first with the anchors being ignored
06:37.34*** part/#harmattan smoku (~spectrum@xkh0g2.infr.xiaoka.com)
06:37.58radiofreeis the height of rectangle 1 + rectangle 2 > height of the screen?

06:38.20emanRectangle {         id:destination
06:38.20eman<PROTECTED>
06:38.20eman}
06:38.23emanNope
06:38.44emanI've set the background on both, and without a anchors.fill, the background won't show.
06:38.54emanOnly about 1/3 of the screen should be taken up
06:39.14meceis there a way to browse private cobs repos on the web?
06:39.20radiofreetry setting some width and height properties for the rectangles
06:39.30emanradiofree: okay..
06:42.12emanhmmm, adding a height and width made for an interesting screen. Seems QML doesn't bound contained elements to the size of the rectangle and they stick out. Sigh.
06:42.37radiofreebut I assume designation maintained it's anchor property?
06:42.43meceeman, could you post source and I'll help you with that.
06:42.52mecejust the rectangles
06:43.02meceerm the file with the rectangles
06:43.07mecepaste, not post
06:43.08xarcasseman: if i understood properly, you need Item::clip property
06:43.10emanAhh, it's because clip is false for QML elements
06:43.19emanxarcass: yep, just found it. thanks.
06:43.21mecejust put clip: true
06:43.45emanI'm more interested in having the rectangle auto size to contain it's children

06:55.40xarcasswazd: i believe that this is fairly standard toolbar (inverted though) with opacity set to something between 0 and 1
06:56.47spenapwazd, I'd say you could grep the css files to get the exact opacity values
06:56.54wazdxarcass: ah, makes sense. I just thought it has some kind of standartized property
07:00.03xarcasswazd: there are also geometry issues, which i don't know how to solve: page's 'client area' ends at the top edge of toolbar, so it's unclear to me how to 'extend' this area that toolbar would be atop of it

07:52.10djszapircg: that is why I do not like packrat, it fails to search on the public Nokia repository, and things like this happen.

07:55.32RST38hdjszapi: simply ask rm_you to add Nokia's repository to the list
07:55.43djszapiRST38h: we asked him, and he told us it is not possible.
07:55.47djszapilong ago.
07:55.54RST38hmhmmm
07:56.13RST38hdoes not see how it is not possible
07:56.34djszapime neither.
07:56.53djszapiprobably a very novice parser behind it.
07:57.49RST38hI have written the parser in PackRat
07:58.01RST38hNo problem parsing Nokia's repo.
07:58.31RST38hUnless rm_you broke it really badly, but I doubt it, he is a pretty reasonable guy :)
07:58.31djszapifix the bug then
08:00.01djszapiand wiki parsing is very dangerous anyways. I think it is not a good approach.
08:00.55djszapiI would drop the whole parser, and I would just do a "whitelist", that is.
08:03.41RST38hwhat wiki?
08:03.50RST38hwhat are you talking about?
08:04.07RST38hrepository is not a wiki
08:04.50djszapiare you sure you wrote the parser ? I am asking it because it heavily parsed the wikipage for the repositories...
08:06.37djszapiand no, there is no need for parser like that, a whitelist is more than enough since people use the "common" repositories anyways. I find it dangerous, anybody can add anything, even a broken package that I can download, or delete a repository and so forth. It is risky, I would just drop the parser as it is.
08:07.14RST38hah, rm_you is parsing the wiki pageto get a list of repos at cobs
08:07.24RST38hbut this does not mean you cannot manually add another repo
08:07.42djszapiwell, if he "is" parsing, it is not your parser :D
08:07.50djszapiit is not that you wrote "alone" :D :D
08:07.56RST38hsighs
08:08.14RST38hI mostly care about parsing repo contents and presenting them to the user
08:08.26RST38hgetting the list of repos has been almost an afterthought
08:08.41RST38htoo easy to do
08:08.50robbiethe1stHey guys, quick question - On the RM680/N950, is there any configuration for the touch screen sensitivity etc?
08:09.43djszapiRST38h: does not matter too much, until the work flow is getting much cleaner. This wikipage parsing is more risky than ever.
08:10.23djszapiAlso, I am /now/ understading why you had no idea about this public Nokia repository bug.
08:11.00RST38hWell, at least for me, the PackRat does the job
08:11.47djszapino, it does not, it does not look for the public Nokia repository which is the most important core. Also I can break it anytime.
08:12.13RST38hThe keywords were "for me"
08:12.40djszapiright, you are fine with broken repositories and ignoring the core Nokia one. No more comments then.
08:14.32djszapiIt is not acceptable for some people (including myself).

08:31.14hiemanshudjszapi: we dont have newer software to test :(
08:31.21djszapihiemanshu: also, I think the dependency management is broken since my import module did not work
08:31.37hiemanshudjszapi: there should be meego.extras on it
08:31.48hiemanshudjszapi: does it have the extras widget lib?
08:31.49djszapiwell, it cannot import it by me.
08:32.16hiemanshudjszapi: the QMLComponentExtraWidgetGallery
08:32.19hiemanshuor something like that
08:32.30djszapisorry ?

08:33.28djszapinot sure what you mean yet.
08:33.46hiemanshudjszapi: on the phone, newer software, do you have widget galleries?
08:34.05djszapiI do not know.
08:34.48hiemanshuwell, cannot really test what the issue with out anything
08:35.18djszapiwell, you should just write your dependencies into the control file.
08:35.27djszapiindependently from any image, gadget.
08:35.55hiemanshuwell, its import it because extras has the InfoBanner which we need
08:36.08hiemanshuand its installed by default
08:36.12hiemanshuits a part of qt-components
08:36.25djszapiso qt-components is your dependency..
08:37.33hiemanshuand its installed by default
08:37.43hiemanshudjszapi: do you have a terminal on that thing
08:37.44hiemanshu?
08:38.25djszapihiemanshu: you should really not make a software with guess-works, seriously.
08:38.36djszapieven if Harmattan has qt, we write that into the dependencies...
08:38.41hiemanshumeh
08:40.17hiemanshuif you have a problem with something, patches are welcome
08:40.33djszapiI am working on a telepathy based IRC client :)
08:40.37djszapiI do not have time for this, sorry.
08:41.32hiemanshudjszapi: we have a depends list with everything it uses
08:41.39robbiethe1stY'know, it seems like with a C(++) app, there ought to be a tool that automatically gets a list of all includes you've used, and finds them in the packages for the target system.
08:41.40hiemanshuplease see before you speak about anything
08:41.59djszapihiemanshu: I have qt-components, and widget galary installed. I am afraid, your guess was wrong then, it is something else.
08:42.38hiemanshudjszapi: exactly, they are all installed
08:42.41djszapirobbiethe1st: that would really  be funky :)
08:42.58djszapiJust consider that if you write a cross-platform application, how would you install Mac, Win and other things to check it out ?
08:43.18robbiethe1stdjszapi: Easy: VMs
08:43.22djszapihiemanshu: yep, so I do not understand why you asked this. At any rate, the problem is something else.
08:43.49djszapirobbiethe1st: that is not really the point. I am making Windows packages by coding on Linux (also Mac, deb, rpm and so forth). Basically, I am doing it on one system.
08:44.20robbiethe1stStill, it'd be handy to have an auto-dependancy-finder, for at least one platform
08:45.00hiemanshudjszapi: you dont even understand me lol
08:45.31djszapirobbiethe1st: the problem is that you have gazillion package management systems. It would be a bit more work than you think.
08:45.44hiemanshudjszapi: can you cd to /usr/lib/qt4/imports/com/meego/extras?
08:45.53djszapisometimes, different distributions even call things differently.
08:46.19djszapi08:45 < hiemanshu> djszapi: you dont even understand me lol -> that is true, I do not understand you.
08:46.36robbiethe1stYes, there'd have to be a version kept up for each package manager. Which, if you could get the distros to maintain it, would be no harder than keeping up all packages as dependancies change
08:46.51hiemanshudjszapi: can you cd to /usr/lib/qt4/imports/com/meego/extras?
08:46.59djszapirobbiethe1st: the ifdef, elif would be another factor which makes a bit more difficult.
08:47.25hiemanshuthat or paste the output of dpkg -L qt-components
08:47.26djszapirobbiethe1st: also, if you have an outdated package name, that completely messes up everything
08:47.27hiemanshudjszapi: ^
08:48.00djszapirobbiethe1st: if you would like to force the dependency for an upper version for some reason.
08:48.16djszapihiemanshu: no sorry, it is under NDA.
08:48.17robbiethe1stIsn't that the same problem you have when manually doing the same thing?
08:48.36hiemanshudjszapi: then just see if /usr/lib/qt4/imports/com/meego/extras exist
08:48.44hiemanshuif it doesn't, that is your problem
08:48.47djszapirobbiethe1st: well, I had cmake 2.8.0 installed meanwhile I wanted to require 2.8.4 for some reason
08:49.33djszapiyou can also have different dependency for different distributions, and it is getting very hard, also I would not like to do it myself for all the distributions really :)
08:50.00djszapirobbiethe1st: speaking of which, it is not a bad practice to know what packages you are using for your software in general ;-)
08:50.32djszapihiemanshu: my problem if it does not exist and your package does not run because of this ? :) It is your software ;)
08:50.55hiemanshudjszapi: its a part of the qt-components package, which is a dependency
08:51.01djszapino, it is not
08:51.02hiemanshuand also installed by default
08:51.10djszapino, it is not
08:51.14robbiethe1stI'm more thinking in terms of, for example, auto-porting it between distros. So, you choose the right thing for your own distro, and you(or others) can simply run it to find the right dependancies for the new distro
08:51.21hiemanshudjszapi: I just verified on a phone that I flashed barely 25 mins ago
08:51.22djszapirobbiethe1st: no, because you go to the package search engine and you are ready
08:51.24robbiethe1stEspecially useful on things like Maemo
08:51.29hiemanshudjszapi: please stop speaking shit
08:52.01djszapihiemanshu: please try to behave. People do not like reading "shit", "fuck" and others.
08:52.09djszapialso, no it is not available by me, not installed by default.
08:52.19djszapibut I am happy to see you knowing my gadget and software better than me :D
08:52.35hiemanshubleh
08:52.41hiemanshuI hate speaking to fag
08:52.44hiemanshuuses /ignore
08:53.44djszapirobbiethe1st: also, it is not trivial to find it sometimes since if you have opengl and opengles installed.
08:54.10djszapithe only thing which can make it nice is a good cmake snippet, to find the proper one for your application. You cannot do it outside of that imho.
08:54.39djszapiso what you are saying will only work with the awareness of the build system
08:54.47robbiethe1stwell, yes
08:54.49djszapiand that is also various from autools/cmake/qmake and so forth.
08:54.55djszapiso it is not really a small task :)
09:02.00djszapirobbiethe1st: so technically, it could be done I guess with a lot of work, but easier (at least to me) to go to the relevant distro's package search engine and type a word and get the result accordingly.

21:03.04thpok, so how can i have a left-aligned back button + two right aligned other buttons in a QML ToolBar? (qt quick components)
21:05.24ajalkanethp: right-most item to parent.right, and the second right-most to that button's anchors.left ?
21:06.16thpajalkane: hmm i don't anchor anything at all there. can/should i anchor ToolIcon elements to ToolBarLayouts?
21:06.54ajalkanethp: you can anchor, it did so in some example too which I copied from
21:07.02thpwhat I have now is ToolBarLayout { ToolIcon {} Item {} ToolIcon {} ToolIcon {} }
21:07.15thpwhich seems to work great if only one of the last two items is visible
21:07.21thpok, i'll try to anchor it :)
21:07.36ajalkaneI've got like this to anchor the menu to right:        ToolIcon {
21:07.36ajalkane<PROTECTED>
21:07.36ajalkane<PROTECTED>
21:07.36ajalkane<PROTECTED>
21:07.39ajalkane<PROTECTED>
21:08.29ajalkaneAnd it's straight from the qt-components example, so I guess it's "canonical" if not beatiful :P

21:09.16mikhasand why the ungodly triple=
21:09.26thp(with toolPlay being my rightmost tool button)
21:09.47ajalkaneThe triply thing is something about not enforcing types. I don't quite understand it, but QtCreator gives a warning without it
21:10.11thpajalkane: well, do you reparent that ToolIcon?
21:10.18thpbecause if not, that's not really needed
21:10.24ajalkanethp: no, it sits inside ToolBarLayout
21:10.30thpwell then you don't need it
21:10.36thpbecause that will always have a parent
21:10.40thp(the ToolBarLayout)
21:11.11ajalkanethp: QtCreator says "== pefromrs type coercion, use === to avoid it" warning
21:13.21thpajalkane: hehe.. that's true
21:13.22ajalkaneah right now I understood, parent === undefined is unneeded altogether. I wonder why it's there
21:13.37thpalterego: but "anchors.right: parent.right" is sufficient
21:13.48alteregoYes, usually :P

21:18.05DocScrutinizerEH?
21:18.23Arkenoiajalkane: huh? any better alternative?
21:18.45DocScrutinizeractually we are halfway to swapping all ISDN/POTS phones for SIP aka NGN phones here in Germany
21:19.12ajalkaneI mean, I've never seen any end-users using it
21:19.19DocScrutinizerHAHAHA
21:19.42ajalkaneForgive my ignorance, but doesn't it basically do what Skype and XMPP etc. does?
21:19.53DocScrutinizerend-users just aren't aware they are using SIP
21:20.50ajalkaneI know it's been around in the telco business, but as a direct end-user product. Is it necessary?
21:21.20DocScrutinizerthey just plug in that combined DSL&phone box of 1&1 or Arcor or whatever is the name of your favourite provider
21:22.36DocScrutinizeras mentioned above I gues ~50% of German phone lines are SIP and users aren't even aware of the fact
21:23.31DocScrutinizerbasically SIP is the ISDN of internet age
21:23.34ajalkaneThat's what I mean, it's a behind-the-scenes protocol. I mean is there any realistic use-case for having a SIP account on phones that you can configure?
21:24.03ajalkaneIt's been on Nokia phones forever, but I can't use it with anyone practically
21:24.09Arkenoii use SIP all the time
21:24.28DocScrutinizersure, e.g. if you think SIP can and will do more than that stupid box with the plain old phone plugged in to it

21:25.56Arkenoialso i want to receive call wherever i am without nonsense "roaming" fees

21:29.31Sputmight be less of an issue nowadays, with smart routers having autoconfig for that, but that's the main reason skype got big - it worked out of the box, where most other solutions didn't
21:29.32ajalkaneDocScrutinizer: I don't know. Maybe it's too hard to configure for them, they don't know what the hell SIP is, or there's not easy enough ready-made-service.

21:55.07MohammadAGif anyone has any idea how to mount an N9(50) rootfs.jffs2, you too can have a skype client
21:55.12ajalkaneMohammadAG: well yes, actually you could say N9(XX)? has/will have Skype client
21:56.00ajalkaneI'm not sure how much it's worth to spend time on having Skype/gTalk on N950 as the new firmware should come in few weeks now.
21:56.24DocScrutinizerSput: yeah, I also always use the hairdryer for roasting my toast
21:57.21ajalkaneI don't like phone calls. It makes me talk, and listen to talking. Why can't they just send e-mail, text message, or IM? Much more convenient.
21:57.42Sputajalkane: I agree
21:57.55artemmdepends on the priority
21:57.57SputI have my headset on anyways while sitting at the computer
21:57.59artemm;)
21:58.09artemmphonecalls resolve issues faster
21:58.22artemmbut stop the progress on all the unrelated issues
21:58.28Sputnot if people like me ignore them most of the time :P
21:58.47ajalkaneOkay I understand if there's a goddamn catastrophe lurking, like a meteor is about to strike, or my baby's about to drown in a radioactive waste. But otherwise? Just send me a message.
21:59.10rm_codecan SIP do large conference calls? and can it do video? I *think* it can, but i don't remember right now where i saw the guides for it
21:59.17DocScrutinizeryou're aware you're in a channel that has a smartPHONE as topic?
21:59.37Sputcertainly.
21:59.39DocScrutinizerrm_code: video yes, even N900
21:59.50rm_codeyeah well at the moment my n950 is admittedly barely a phone, if i make calls i can't hang up or interface with the dialer at all for automated services
21:59.51ajalkaneI have a SMART(phone) so that I don't need the phone so much, but do things smart.
21:59.55artemmoh, Harmattan can do phone calls as well! That's a cool extra feature!
21:59.55DocScrutinizerconference - depends. needs support from your provider
22:00.03DocScrutinizeror special clients
22:00.04MohammadAGI never truly appreciated BT headsets till I started driving alone
22:00.11SputDocScrutinizer: my cell phone bill hovers around 3€/month, and I don't have a cheap or flat-fee contract
22:00.18SputI use a few GB of internet though.
22:00.20specialI'm amused that I started this with an offhand comment 2 hours ago.. and it's still going
22:01.13rm_codei'm amused (not surprised) at how many absolute minded people there are here who think there is only one way to do things
22:01.30DocScrutinizerajalkane: [[ SMART(phone) ]] seems harmattan and N9 isn't the device and OS for you
22:01.35Sputrm_code: obviously, no perl coders :>
22:01.50rm_code"this service is better, so everyone should use this, because it is the RIGHT WAY to do things, everyone else be damned"
22:02.08ajalkaneDocScrutinizer: Dunno, liking N950 so far, I'd imagine N9 will be just great too
22:02.38rm_codei got used to doing things I thought were dumb a *long time ago*, because not every user does things "the right way" and you can't expect them to... and if you treat them like idiots they will abandon your software
22:02.45DocScrutinizerajalkane: for the SMART part it seems to emphasize the phone part way too much
22:02.52Sputif I did a lot of calling, the N950 certainly would be the wrong device for me... it's just too heavy to keep it on-ear for extended amounts of time :>
22:02.57rm_codego ahead and say "i don't want them using my software anyway". i dare you.
22:03.51rm_codeI hope the next firmware fixes calling n N950, currently fairly useless as a phone because i have to reboot it after every phonecall to hang up
22:04.04Sputoh? that works fine for me
22:04.13ajalkaneDocScrutinizer: I don't understand what you mean, either I'm too drunk or too tired. But anyway, the traditional phone usage of my mobile phones has decreased a lot compared to the traditional phone usage (as in talking). And that's a good thing.
22:04.19SputI would love if it used the notification light to, well, notify about missed calls though
22:04.22artemmreally? Public N950 FW makes calls very fine for me
22:04.33rm_codeyou're lucky then
22:04.58specialI've only had to reboot to end a call once
22:04.59rm_codetheres a lot of people for whom the "active call window" is just a black screen -- and if you close it, it doesn't hang up the call
22:05.13DocScrutinizerajalkane: I'm just talking for the talking it seems - ignore me for the next 1h ;-D
22:05.47DocScrutinizerajalkane: probably I just noticed I don't know what I mean either :-)
22:06.19ajalkaneDocScrutinizer: Well, my reply was really non-sensical also, so let's call it even.
22:06.29DocScrutinizerdeal
22:06.32DocScrutinizerXD
22:07.13DocScrutinizerafk again
22:07.13Sputfor me the task manager crashes a lot, but calls seem to work fine
22:07.21Sputbut as I said, I'm not calling that much :)
22:07.32MohammadAGtask manager crashes?
22:07.36DocScrutinizerhave a look into SIP, it's way better than a lot of people seem to think
22:07.45Sputyeah. it just goes black and doesn't display tasks anymore
22:07.46MohammadAGponders doing a quick daemon to use the notification light for missed calls
22:07.57ajalkaneI've never had task manager crashes
22:08.04MohammadAGthe 3 event views suspend when you swipe out of them
22:08.04SputMohammadAG: that would rock...
22:08.25MohammadAGby suspend I mean they don't redraw, and stay black
22:08.46SputI can swipe around as much as I want, I can't reactivate the task manager after that happened
22:09.21MohammadAGI'm just saying what's prolly causing it for you :p
22:10.19MohammadAGjavispedro, /etc/mce/mce-radio-states.ini
22:10.38ajalkaneSometimes it's happened to me, though, that I can't open the apps from task-manager. It goes into some kind of stucked state.
22:11.00ajalkaneBut it recovers when I start an app from the application list.
22:11.06javispedroMohammadAG: afaik, that's a file that lists the available hw
22:11.16javispedroMohammadAG: one -dadd package overwrites it with the version you are seeing
22:11.20MohammadAGFMTX = false?
22:11.28javispedrothe n950 has no fmtx
22:11.40MohammadAGit has a wl1271
22:11.43MohammadAGwhich has an FMTX afaik
22:11.48javispedroyes, same as n9,
22:11.53javispedrobut no antenna; the n9 might.
22:12.07MohammadAGf the antenna, get the base hardware to work then plug an antenna
22:12.25MohammadAGwe can put an antenna in place of the microSD slo.... waaiit...
22:12.55javispedrothe board file for the rm680 basically says that the fmtx is fscked
22:13.10javispedrothe one for the rm696 on the other side does not
22:13.52javispedroyes, I could remove the fmtx is fsck parted either by rebuildign the kernel or by using a unseal.ko-like trick, but I bet it won't work
22:14.04javispedros/fmtx is fsck parted/"fmtx is fsck" part
22:14.10MohammadAGwouldn't hurt to try :p
