| 07:41.45 | ieatlint | it all makes sense though, which is why i believe it in part |

| 07:42.32 | ieatlint | RST38h: not just lower income |
| 07:42.38 | RST38h | ieatlint: it targets normal, non technical people |
| 07:42.54 | ieatlint | but most of the advertisements i see are how you can get an android phone on the cheap carriers for $50 |
| 07:42.55 | RST38h | ieatlint: who, on the average, have attention spans of a fruit fly |
| 07:43.42 | RST38h | ieatlint: which is nicely illustrated by Marketplace stats vs stats for the same apps for other platforms |
| 07:44.04 | ieatlint | i was most recently told the poor returns claim by a MS rep actually |
| 07:44.38 | RST38h | does not matter who it is |

| 09:33.25 | gri | Oh |
| 09:33.26 | Venemo_N950 | 1. they abandoned their own linux-based os. then they abandoned the linux-based os they made with intel. then they announced that they're done with linux-based oses. and now they're once again, making a linux-based os from scratch. |
| 09:33.35 | Venemo_N950 | are they nuts? |
| 09:33.37 | macmaN | yeah |
| 09:33.42 | Venemo_N950 | srsly. |
| 09:33.47 | gri | there are also news on a german site: nokia closes factory in bonn and romania |
| 09:33.51 | djszapi | Venemo_N950: it is a different market sector, low-end devices. |
| 09:34.20 | macmaN | somebody higher in the hierarchy must be smoking something that creates hyperactivity. |
| 09:34.47 | djszapi | I think it is very good because Qt keeps going this way, remains important for them not to drop Oslo yet. |
| 09:34.48 | Venemo_N950 | djszapi, good excuse, but it's still nuts. how much code will they reuse from Maemo? |
| 09:35.06 | Venemo_N950 | macmaN, yeah, I had the same reaction |
| 09:35.16 | Venemo_N950 | djszapi, that's at least the good part of it |
| 09:35.49 | macmaN | some "know it all" business guys seem to have no patience to see things through. what do they think this is a "make a successfuly ecosystem in a 18 months top, if not then we scrap and start over"? |
| 09:35.57 | djszapi | Venemo_N950: why is it bad ? I think it is actually very good. Smaller project, not like a megaproject that failed previously with more tries, and they still have the very long linux culture to make something work |
| 09:36.33 | Venemo_N950 | but I can already tell you that Meltemi project will be cancelled by the time it starts delivering products. |
| 09:36.41 | macmaN | meltemi? |
| 09:36.56 | djszapi | macmaN: see gri's question 4 minutes ago :) |
| 09:37.00 | DocScrutinizer | DANG, I almost choked and suffokated on reading "Aegean Sea" on a page about Nokia |
| 09:37.01 | javispedro | Venemo_N950, bright side: I no longer have to buy an iPhone then. |
| 09:37.03 | macmaN | oh damn, thats another new term today then. i was still talking about tizen :D |
| 09:37.29 | Venemo_N950 | eg. what stops nokia from releasing 10 more harmattan devices instead of symbian or wp7? nothing. but they're not doing it anyways. |
| 09:37.30 | macmaN | readjusting to yesterdays news.. but it turns out im already outdated! :> |
| 09:37.37 | djszapi | Venemo_N950: as for me (Qt enthusiastic), it is a /very/ good news after the tizen shock yesterday. |
| 09:38.06 | Venemo_N950 | djszapi, tizen will also have qt, no shock there |
| 09:38.32 | Venemo_N950 | macmaN, Meltemi is their new linux-based os, this time targeted at the low-end |
| 09:38.33 | djszapi | Venemo_N950: by 100+ very experiences employees like in Oslo ? |
| 09:38.37 | djszapi | experienced* |
| 09:38.43 | javispedro | Venemo_N950, that is a bit wishful; it won't be put in there by Samsung for ex., and thus, it won't have the level of support you're used to. |
| 09:38.49 | Venemo_N950 | djszapi, I'm sorry? |
| 09:38.57 | javispedro | (unless they DO plan to make Qt the native API...) |
| 09:39.14 | macmaN | Venemo_N950: ok that .fi article pretty much said nothing about that |
| 09:39.27 | djszapi | Venemo_N950: The Oslo office has 100+ employees working on Qt. Will Tizen provide that resource ? (Consider that those people are very experienced and have a very relevant culture about it) |
| 09:40.50 | macmaN | are you guys updating to Foursquare 0.13.1-0 from Store? |
| 09:40.57 | macmaN | it's failing to download for me |
| 09:41.13 | djszapi | Venemo_N950: iow, many company promised many things in the past, but these Qt employees have already proven a lot, haven't they ? I am happy to see them stay yet |
| 09:41.27 | Venemo_N950 | djszapi, idunno |
| 09:42.23 | javispedro | but I have to say that this is exactly something I wished that would happen |
| 09:42.45 | javispedro | remember the statements about "Nokia not making any future _highend_ Meego phones" ;P |
| 09:43.16 | SpeedEvil | doesn't. |
| 09:43.31 | SpeedEvil | I just remember 'ongoing disuptive technology |
| 09:43.37 | DocScrutinizer | sorry, my take on "they still have the very long linux culture to make something work" is Nokia never understood the concept of FOSS, never been playing nice, now completely fsckd it with Aegis (this time I mean Aegis and not the policy), and they for shure were damn better off using some BSD licenced stuff to abuse and commercialize - it would relieve the pain from them to publish sources and write braindamaged userland daemons for |
| 09:43.39 | DocScrutinizer | things that belong into kernel but they want to keep it closed - and it relieves community from constantly getting abused by them for cheap betatesters and coding monkeys that don't get anything back |
| 09:43.42 | macmaN | in my opinion (supported by someone working on the product team), N9 actually arriving in peoples hands in mass quantities might still change things |
| 09:45.19 | javispedro | SpeedEvil: http://flors.wordpress.com/2011/06/26/the-four-wheels-spinning-meego-1-2-harmattan/ |

| 09:58.42 | djszapi | alterego: I could not get it work, dh_make will not be there in scratchbox. |
| 09:58.57 | javispedro | hm? |
| 09:59.02 | javispedro | dh_make should work? |
| 09:59.12 | javispedro | (it has worked for me in the past) |
| 09:59.12 | djszapi | no, it is not there by default. |
| 09:59.16 | javispedro | ah, true. |
| 09:59.35 | javispedro | but you can install it, dh-make package iirc |

| 10:07.26 | javispedro | probably it is false that the N9 doesn't have a LED |
| 10:07.27 | DocScrutinizer | javispedro: you could add that to http://wiki.meego.com/User:Javispedro/Activities_blocked_by_the_N9_and_N950_security_policy , I'm not enough on topic to do it and I guess MohammadAG missed to add it |

| 10:20.59 | khertan | i'm surprized |

| 11:01.22 | DocScrutinizer | you wouldn't expect such dude to do anything about the issue, no matter if those damagers are reachable or not |
| 11:01.32 | javispedro | for the time being, I'm putting the usecase on the wiki and hoping that someone who understands will have a look. |
| 11:01.36 | artemma | he'd also not know how to stop chat messages popping up all the time :) |
| 11:01.50 | artemma | uninstallation should be able to stop and undo everything for any decent app |
| 11:02.08 | djszapi | artemma: except that you can do anything from maintainer script |
| 11:02.12 | djszapi | and ovi check will pass it. |
| 11:02.18 | DocScrutinizer | you might get scared though about this dude might find there's possibly a workaround to still operate the LEDs and would fix it - esp when that dude claims he's in chage for the policy config somehow |
| 11:05.15 | DocScrutinizer | btw >>[2011-09-29 12:43:08] <djszapi> mmm, ovi policies are decided by OVI, and I guess they did not want to check manually whether a code abuses the led control or not and pissing the user off.<< **I GUESS** WTF?!? thanks for the help! |
| 11:05.18 | javispedro | note that I too believe the LED thing to be _in error_, even if by design error. |
| 11:05.34 | javispedro | As e.g. an application is free to use the vibrator, or the Flash LEDs, as said above. |
| 11:05.52 | javispedro | An a non-stopping vibrator is more annoying plus potentially device breaking. |
| 11:05.58 | javispedro | hm |
| 11:06.09 | javispedro | tbh, the library used for vibrator might have a max duration |
| 11:06.13 | javispedro | I think that's the case. |
| 11:06.30 | javispedro | but still you're allowed to trigger it whenever you want. |
| 11:06.39 | RST38h | points out that Nokia 5800 had a firmware (not updated for ~6 months) that often left it stuck, with vibrator turned on |
| 11:06.45 | DocScrutinizer | javispedro: mce patterns all have a max duration to set |
| 11:06.58 | RST38h | HOw is any security framework going to protect you against that> |
| 11:07.21 | djszapi | I have never said I agree with those abuses. |
| 11:07.47 | javispedro | djszapi, which ones, that they forbid the leds or, that they allow the vibrator? ;) |
| 11:08.08 | javispedro | cause I'm still somewhat expecting that what will happen is that the next firmware will forbid vibrator and flash LEDs, just in case! |
| 11:08.12 | DocScrutinizer | javispedro: let's face the facts, djszapi pulled a reason out of his arse to justify a bug in policy, then got stinky when we said it's not exactly a good reason |
| 11:08.13 | khertan | Tizen SDK : http://t.co/mSaUhuCm |
| 11:08.25 | javispedro | khertan, WAC? |
| 11:08.58 | RST38h | khertan: Cannot be. You know why? |
| 11:09.16 | javispedro | ah, it's a joke =) |
| 11:09.20 | djszapi | javispedro: I am rejecting how the OPI is happening to be. |
| 11:09.29 | macmaN | anybody here know if its possible to augment the lock screen with information from media player? id like to have now playing info there. |
| 11:09.29 | RST38h | Because it would require IE! =) |
| 11:09.31 | djszapi | I would expect more quality where your questions would be outdated. |
| 11:09.39 | khertan | RST38h: :) |
| 11:09.47 | djszapi | so that everybody could be happy with proper quality, and they could use the things if they do not abuse the system |
| 11:10.17 | javispedro | djszapi, well, I think this is a quite minor thing that for a change someone from Ovi could show some good faith and potentially enable. |
| 11:10.20 | RST38h | Doc: I disagree on the "got stinky" part. Never stopped. |
| 11:11.01 | javispedro | djszapi, this is not sys_admin or some other virtually hole through the security policy. just led control. |
| 11:11.08 | djszapi | javispedro: well, I am a security guy, what do you expect ? Bad quality applications going out ? :) |
| 11:11.10 | javispedro | to prove _something_ can be done |
| 11:11.33 | DocScrutinizer | javispedro: now this is a 20ft pole then? ;-) |
| 11:11.41 | javispedro | DocScrutinizer, touché. |
| 11:12.05 | RST38h | asserts the number of IRC messages spent to justify/reject the use of Aegis to prohibit LED control, since this morning |
| 11:12.10 | DocScrutinizer | javispedro: prepare for next fw release getting access to all leds, vibrator, and LCD locked |
| 11:12.18 | RST38h | sighs in disbelief |
| 11:12.35 | javispedro | DocScrutinizer, yeah, I've not yet discard that could happen.. |
| 11:12.45 | javispedro | well, LCD ;P |
| 11:12.58 | DocScrutinizer | that's why djszapi scares me each time he says a word |
| 11:13.19 | artemma | indeed, most of apps can use LCD for showing things not every manager knows how to stop. Oups |
| 11:13.47 | javispedro | djszapi, you should have been there when that script kiddie came and starting talking the usual "every system is crackable" speech |
| 11:13.54 | javispedro | *started giving |
| 11:14.04 | javispedro | djszapi, would have put you in a quite bad mood =) |
| 11:14.09 | javispedro | s/there/here :P |
| 11:15.37 | RST38h | javispedro: Wait until Harmattan does get cracked and every script kiddie and non-script non-kiddie out there jailbreaks it |
| 11:15.49 | khertan | every os is crackable with a good hammer :) |
| 11:16.14 | RST38h | javispedro: guaranteed to give djzsapi the eternal damnation of butt pain |
| 11:16.56 | djszapi | javispedro: well, not really, that is true (I know many aegis issues yet to get tcb anyways) |
| 11:17.14 | djszapi | but it does not mean I do not try to move toward the safest and best quality solution. |
| 11:17.28 | khertan | issue that require a sledgehammer ? |
| 11:17.39 | *** join/#harmattan veskuh (vesahart@nat/nokia/x-sxkubgkxhxccbype) |
| 11:17.45 | djszapi | no, what javispedro said: "every system is crackable" |
| 11:18.39 | javispedro | but still, just look at android forum today |
| 11:18.48 | macmaN | what hapened today |
| 11:18.52 | djszapi | javispedro: link ? |
| 11:19.11 | javispedro | djszapi, xda developers for ex |
| 11:19.30 | javispedro | either official holes are teared through the system now, or the daily conversation casual topic will become "how did you root that phone?" |
| 11:19.34 | javispedro | which is sth I'd like to avoid. |
| 11:19.38 | *** part/#harmattan veskuh (vesahart@nat/nokia/x-sxkubgkxhxccbype) |
| 11:19.46 | djszapi | javispedro: I would have helped with the issue, if it is a bug, and not my guess. |
| 11:20.19 | SpeedEvil | Easily rootable phones that are casually rooted by 'power users' are _evil_. |
| 11:20.30 | SpeedEvil | From a free software POV. |
| 11:20.32 | DocScrutinizer | sighs - even from the few lines that still appear on his screen |
| 11:20.43 | RST38h | what is free software POV? |
| 11:20.56 | SpeedEvil | Especially if they warez-like nonsense like cyanogenmod |
| 11:21.02 | SpeedEvil | ^encourage |
| 11:21.07 | javispedro | RST38h, this is the "pirated windows is damaging free operating systems" argument |
| 11:21.14 | javispedro | (I personally agree with it) |
| 11:21.21 | djszapi | javispedro: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=448 ? |
| 11:21.27 | macmaN | pot of view |
| 11:21.28 | RST38h | javispedro: ah |
| 11:21.31 | macmaN | point* |
| 11:21.38 | RST38h | javispedro: but you are paying for the freaking phone, ain't you? |
| 11:21.49 | SpeedEvil | RST38h: From a point of view of the ecology of free sotware. Needs users, and devs. Distracting either to rooted platforms is harmful |
| 11:21.52 | javispedro | djszapi, for example. the first thread -- rom bible -- about cracking |
| 11:21.57 | javispedro | and many others |
| 11:22.00 | RST38h | javispedro: and there is no way you can install a usable linux on it |
| 11:22.14 | djszapi | ok, will skim tonight |
| 11:23.01 | javispedro | RST38h, but it means that a platform that tries to promote openess (argably Nokia's) has to compete with a platform that doesn't, but everyone does it illegaly |
| 11:23.09 | *** join/#harmattan Eugene (~ircchatte@212.113.250.147) |
| 11:24.00 | SpeedEvil | RST38h: usable linux isn't the only distraction of rootable platforms. Many devs are distracted to doing stuff with rooted android phones, that is not productive. |
| 11:24.05 | RST38h | javispedro: ah ok |
| 11:24.10 | javispedro | so the conversation goes like "buy a n900, you can run XXX on it!" "but I can on my existing $DROID_PHONE after installing $WHATEVERS_TODAYS_CYANOGED_CRAP_IS!" |
| 11:24.26 | RST38h | javispedro: well, nokia neither promotes openness nor competes with other platforms nowadays, so it is all historic now |
| 11:24.34 | javispedro | yes, that's sadly true. |
| 11:24.44 | javispedro | and one of the reasons for the many aegis discussions here. |
| 11:24.49 | javispedro | s/aegis/"security policy" ;P |
| 11:25.12 | DocScrutinizer | me considers a blind +q * |
| 11:25.14 | RST38h | SpeedEvil: I have yet to see anyone doing any intelligent development for Android |
| 11:25.53 | RST38h | SpeedEvil: All I am seeing is 1) fart apps 2) crude ports of the existing open sourced projects |
| 11:26.20 | DocScrutinizer | can't find a pole long enough to touch this chan, gave up at ~100ft |
| 11:26.48 | djszapi | interesting, one guy told me that (not from OVI), the led control is forbidden on purpose since it is close to the hardware operation |
| 11:26.59 | djszapi | and it can be abused in a way, it ruins other hardware parts. |
| 11:27.12 | khertan | hum interesting ... |
| 11:27.30 | RST38h | Meanwhile: HP has rented the services of Goldman Sachs Group to fend off any potential activist investors seeking to rock the boat. |
| 11:27.30 | javispedro | that's probably a bug then |
| 11:27.35 | khertan | we should remove write access on fs too ... it can be abuse to fuckup the flash |
| 11:27.38 | javispedro | the token is "LedControl", not "RuinDeviceControl" ;P |
| 11:27.41 | RST38h | Doc: Simply ignore him |
| 11:27.51 | DocScrutinizer | looking at backscroll since ~4h ago I'm damn convinced some user here is a friggin help to general harmattan development |
| 11:27.56 | RST38h | Doc: Until someone bans him again |
| 11:28.21 | DocScrutinizer | RST38h: I did since *plonk* - this time for real |
| 11:28.27 | RST38h | javispedrO: btw, is it notification led or the flash led? |
| 11:28.38 | javispedro | RST38h, notification, flash seems to be wide accesible |
| 11:28.42 | *** part/#harmattan timoph (mjolk@hilla.kapsi.fi) |
| 11:29.00 | DocScrutinizer | until next "fix" djszapi pushes |
| 11:29.16 | RST38h | javispedro: sounds opposite to what one would suspect: you may be able to overload and burn the flash led but why prohibit notification? |
| 11:29.35 | javispedro | RST38h, you know, we've been having this argument for the past half an hour ;P |
| 11:29.41 | RST38h | eehehehe |
| 11:30.22 | djszapi | yes, they confirmed it, and they repeated actually what I said above. It can mess up the many signals already existing and other things. |
| 11:30.28 | macmaN | DocScrutinizer: care to elaborate on the exact meaning of the "some user" part |
| 11:30.43 | SpeedEvil | djszapi: MCE does the LED control though. |
| 11:30.48 | javispedro | djszapi, well, thanks for relaying that. |
| 11:30.49 | RST38h | gibberish |
| 11:30.54 | djszapi | SpeedEvil: MCE is a platform software. |
| 11:30.58 | javispedro | djszapi, but, could that be considered a bug? |
| 11:31.08 | SpeedEvil | djszapi: So if anything can convince MCE to do that, it's a bug. |
| 11:31.13 | djszapi | javispedro: why do you always guess the best about developers ? This is something I never understand |
| 11:31.22 | javispedro | "guess the best"? |
| 11:31.27 | SpeedEvil | If you can simply tell MCE to flash the LED, that argument is flawed. |
| 11:31.34 | djszapi | javispedro: imho, it is just a compromise among the hardware developers (read as in for instance, to not have bigger hardware in sizes, etc) |
| 11:31.34 | javispedro | I usually guess the worst, because I'm one ;P |
| 11:31.40 | djszapi | javispedro: sorry, *worst |
| 11:31.57 | RST38h | javispedro: he is talking nonsense. the notification led is basically connected to a GPIO or a PWM output. Has no other connections. |
| 11:32.17 | RST38h | javispedro: and yes, you never control it directly even in maemo5, you ask MCE and MCE controls it |
| 11:32.26 | javispedro | I know, I'm trying to follow. |
| 11:32.39 | RST38h | javispedro: he is feeding us bullshit, I am afraid |
| 11:33.07 | DocScrutinizer | RST38h: the notification LED is connected to a LP5523 LED controller with pattern engines |
| 11:33.08 | RST38h | maybe it works on their middle management though |
| 11:33.36 | DocScrutinizer | mce controlls that controller |
| 11:33.53 | DocScrutinizer | user sends a dbus msg to mce and asks for a predefined pattern |
| 11:33.53 | *** join/#harmattan lizardo (~lizardo@189.2.128.130) |
| 11:34.12 | DocScrutinizer | aegis^Wpolicy is forbidding this dbus msg |
| 11:34.21 | javispedro | djszapi, either way, we might lack information, but with the one we have we consider that to be a potential bug in MCE. We think that interacting with the LED should not cause any problem with any other component, and that was the case in fact on the N900. |
| 11:34.28 | khertan | the real reason is that evil developper could use it to write subliminal message in user brain |
| 11:34.37 | RST38h | rrriiight |
| 11:34.56 | RST38h | make it flash so that it reveals user's location to the thugs! |
| 11:35.17 | djszapi | javispedro: look, I have been told by hardware developers, that is one reason. |
| 11:35.31 | djszapi | javispedro: since, I am not a hardware developer, and they made it, I completely trust them. |
| 11:35.45 | DocScrutinizer | farts on pondering what the chan would look like to him without ignore list |
| 11:35.48 | djszapi | javispedro: on the other hand, they confirmed my guesses that I made from teh beginning. |
| 11:35.59 | javispedro | djszapi, could we somehow ask for more public information on that? maybe they'd follow if we'd filled this bug in developer.nokia.com ? |
| 11:36.11 | RST38h | Which is "whatever developer does ot the device is going to be potentially dangerous"? |
| 11:36.34 | DocScrutinizer | RST38h: to the point, exactly and 100% |
| 11:36.39 | lizardo | generic question: has anyone seen a N9 selling (not pre-selling) anywhere already? Just curious how fast they actually are on shipping to the stores |
| 11:36.43 | djszapi | javispedro: you can always fill bugs. However, led control is probably not the most important task, but go for it. |
| 11:36.44 | khertan | RST38h: hum ... i understand now the reason of tizen : html5 only |
| 11:36.57 | javispedro | djszapi, I understand it's not important. But I thought it would be easy. |
| 11:37.03 | RST38h | oh, you can do a lot of damage with properly written javascript... |
| 11:37.16 | javispedro | djszapi, if something that externally looks as simple as led control will take such a lot of energy, |
| 11:37.25 | khertan | RST38h: they talk about html5 ... they could not provide js engine in the runtime |
| 11:37.28 | javispedro | then aiming for stuff like sys_admin .... |
| 11:37.32 | djszapi | javispedro: is it easy to redesign the hardware ? |
| 11:37.50 | DocScrutinizer | javispedro: you got trapped, pal!! |
| 11:37.52 | javispedro | djszapi, I am yet to understand why is it a hardware problem. |
| 11:37.55 | SpeedEvil | djszapi: The hardware devlopers statement is not consistent with the released schematics. |
| 11:38.13 | RST38h | also not consistent with the sw architecture which has MCE in between |
| 11:38.27 | djszapi | javispedro: sorry, but I cannot spend more time with it that I could help. |
| 11:38.32 | DocScrutinizer | SpeedEvil: please, that's all made up (though I'm not able to read it as I couldn't stand it) |
| 11:38.32 | javispedro | MCE could also abstract whatever the "dangerous" part is and leave only LED control |
| 11:38.40 | javispedro | djszapi, ok. |
| 11:38.43 | SpeedEvil | djszapi: The indicator LED is connected through a diode, to an output only of the charger circuitry which indicates emergency charging. It's also connected to the LED controller chip. This is the only connections to the indicator LED. |
| 11:39.09 | RST38h | and the led controller chip is individually addressable |
| 11:39.13 | djszapi | SpeedEvil: which part of that you did not understand I am not a hardware developer ? :) |
| 11:39.27 | djszapi | (not that I ever want to) |
| 11:39.38 | RST38h | djszapi: Ok, then who are you and what makes you speak on Nokia's behalf here? |
| 11:39.44 | khertan | djszapi: and if a hardware developper ask you o jump ? |
| 11:40.00 | khertan | s/o/to |
| 11:40.11 | macmaN | lizardo: your question has been most interesting for a while :) |
| 11:40.16 | DocScrutinizer | I AM A HARDWARE DEVELOPER \o/ |
| 11:40.21 | djszapi | khertan: sorry, but I do not have time for unneccesary arguements, how is it related ? |
| 11:40.28 | djszapi | I cannot know everything, and I do not even want to. |
| 11:40.38 | javispedro | djszapi, well, no problem, that is just fine. |
| 11:40.55 | djszapi | khertan: you need to ask someone else, that is what I could help. |
| 11:41.00 | djszapi | for internal details. |
| 11:41.20 | djszapi | fwiw, they also mentioned what I said from the beginning on the top of the hardware issue |
| 11:41.28 | javispedro | djszapi, maybe you could forward our concerns to "them". |
| 11:41.30 | DocScrutinizer | javispedro: are you finished with talking djszapi into tweaking policy to lock vibrator and flash LED and LCD content as well now? |
| 11:42.05 | lizardo | macmaN: but the silence may mean it has not shipped physically anywhere yet :) anyway, I expect to see people announcing everywhere whey they put their hands into a shiny new N9 |
| 11:42.23 | lizardo | when* |
| 11:42.23 | macmaN | lizardo: where r u |
| 11:42.25 | DocScrutinizer | lizardo: here the shops say week42 |
| 11:42.42 | macmaN | lizardo: im a bit south of finland |
| 11:42.54 | macmaN | aka estonia |
| 11:42.58 | lizardo | macmaN: Brazil :( will take a while to appear here I'm afraid (IIRC N900 appeared on regular stores more than a year after announcement) |
| 11:43.08 | macmaN | ouch! |
| 11:43.39 | djszapi | mce design is also by purpose like that. |
| 11:43.41 | DocScrutinizer | lizardo: customs took that time to process the import |
| 11:43.48 | DocScrutinizer | :-) |
| 11:43.51 | djszapi | you are not allowed to control from that direction either. |
| 11:43.55 | javispedro | DocScrutinizer, I do not want to later be told that I did not try all possible ways. |
| 11:44.01 | djszapi | (design, not mentioning bugs, if any!) |
| 11:44.14 | DocScrutinizer | javispedro: it's evidently useless |
| 11:44.29 | javispedro | djszapi, this is all about trying to change things, hopefully for the better. |
| 11:44.40 | javispedro | be it design, implementation. |
| 11:44.41 | khertan | i vote for forbidding developper to use memory and filesytem, it could potentially fuck off the device |
| 11:44.44 | lizardo | DocScrutinizer: very possible :) brazillians are receiving their N950 just now! (fortunately I asked to send mine to a friend who was in Finland... arrived a few weeks ago) |
| 11:45.31 | macmaN | lizardo: customs didnt rape you for extra charges for that? |
| 11:45.34 | abinader | lizardo: and is going to be again next week :) hehe |
| 11:45.36 | lizardo | Looks like customs were trying to tax something that is explictly labeled "not for sale" on it :( |
| 11:45.55 | DocScrutinizer | khertan: using flash storage could - using mce to control indicator LED definitely can NOT |
| 11:46.16 | lizardo | macmaN: when you bring a single (or maybe two?) cellphone for personal use, that is not a problem |
| 11:46.17 | javispedro | lizardo, after that they usually try to tax you even more for their "inconvenience" |
| 11:46.33 | khertan | DocScrutinizer: yeah this is why i reclaim restriction on flash storage ... harmattan isn't secure enough ! |
| 11:46.49 | DocScrutinizer | but I didn't see the turn in djszapi 's argumentation from "pisses off users (like me)" to "could harm the device" - luckily |
| 11:47.19 | khertan | <PROTECTED> |
| 11:47.32 | khertan | their is some blabla |
| 11:47.37 | DocScrutinizer | not exactly, no |
| 11:47.41 | khertan | s/their/there |
| 11:47.49 | khertan | but none arguments |
| 11:48.19 | DocScrutinizer | i see a "I GUESS..." and that's about it |
| 11:49.09 | djszapi | sandst1: From the code, I could read out: When the dpkg-wrapper updates the restok.conf file, it does it by first storing a new version as restok.conf.new and then renaming it to restok.conf. The new copy is first signed by the "tcb" credential. This error sounds like the dpkg-wrapper doesn't get "tcb" which accli is supposed to inherit, so it is unable to sign the new version. |
| 11:49.14 | DocScrutinizer | but of course we don't have the right to query guesses of such savvy inner-circle contributors |
| 11:49.53 | djszapi | sandst1: First check the error logs for anything aegis-related. You could also send the current /var/lib/restok.conf file or check that the dpkg-wrapper (/usr/bin/dpkg) has been assigned the "tcb" credential. The third thing to check is that the hash of /usr/bin/dpkg matches that in the refhash files. |
| 11:50.16 | DocScrutinizer | if they think there should be no app allowed to ask mce to activate PatternSMS then that's a commandment to us mere mortals |
| 11:52.23 | faenil | djszapi: I keep on wondering, why are you the only one who answers such questions? Why isn't there any Nokian in here? |
| 11:52.57 | RST38h | Maybe we should ask qgil who the djszapi guy is and what he is doing here |
| 11:53.02 | djszapi | faenil: it would indeed be easier if others could be there. One person can easily become antagonist. :) |
| 11:53.08 | Stskeeps | RST38h: i was more pondering corporate security |
| 11:53.13 | djszapi | faenil: well, let us discuss it in private. |
| 11:53.15 | RST38h | Whether his statements can be interpreted as the official statements by Nokia |
| 11:53.43 | RST38h | Stskeeps: I do not know anyone in Nokia's corp security. Besides it constitutes a cruel/unusual punishment |
| 11:55.47 | macmaN | so... who is able to update to Foursquare 0.13.1 here? anybody? |
| 11:56.01 | macmaN | wondering if Store cdn is failing |
| 11:58.29 | SpeedEvil | macmaN: Started installation for the first time. |
| 11:58.40 | SpeedEvil | Oh - that's new |
| 11:58.49 | SpeedEvil | 'battery too low to complete installation' |
| 11:58.56 | macmaN | heh |
| 11:59.06 | macmaN | wdym though, you didnt have it installed at all before? |
| 12:00.05 | SpeedEvil | macmaN: It's now in some confused state that I'm not sure what it's doing |
| 12:00.26 | SpeedEvil | macmaN: Ah - installed |
| 12:01.49 | macmaN | im just getting download error, installation package not found |
| 12:03.10 | macmaN | wondering if i should uninstall, or if it has any effect |
| 12:05.10 | SpeedEvil | Well - it worked for me |
| 12:05.11 | macmaN | i have already spent more money on harmattan apps in two weeks than i have on android and desktop combined in a few years |
| 12:05.23 | macmaN | meaning i bought gpodder and pinball fantasies |
| 12:05.46 | SpeedEvil | would have too. |
| 12:05.49 | SpeedEvil | (angry birds) |
| 12:05.55 | SpeedEvil | But the purchase link is broken |
| 12:06.05 | SpeedEvil | Which - with actual devices hitting consumers hands... |
| 12:06.07 | macmaN | SpeedEvil: well you can.. for about 500⬠:> |
| 12:07.44 | macmaN | SpeedEvil: oh oh, uninstalling foursquare first fixed something. its now properly downloading it from the store. |
| 12:08.33 | macmaN | i wonder when 4sq will appear in Feeds |
| 12:09.05 | macmaN | haha! apparently with 0.13 it does! |
| 12:10.19 | macmaN | but apparently there are no controls for it in the settings panel |
| 12:10.24 | macmaN | yet |
| 12:10.34 | macmaN | unless it requires a reboot or something |
| 12:11.01 | sandst1 | djszapi: ok, thanks. i'll keep those in mind in case the phone goes to a craazy state again :P |
| 12:11.57 | djszapi | SpeedEvil: which led were they talking about btw ? Any of the three or some special one ? |
| 12:14.04 | djszapi | back can be by the camera |
| 12:14.15 | djszapi | could you control the front led on N900 ? |
| 12:14.30 | djszapi | someone keeps telling me, it is the same on n900. |
| 12:15.18 | khertan | (14:14:04) djszapi: could you control the front led on N900 ? < yes |
| 12:15.42 | djszapi | documentation ? |
| 12:15.58 | artemma | is sick with twitter polluting his notifications feed. Why nobody thought about limiting it to specific list(s)? |
| 12:16.23 | macmaN | artemma: yes, totally agreed. list support is essential. |
| 12:16.47 | Kaadlajk | I would like to have upcoming calendar events in the feed |
| 12:16.50 | artemma | in fact I am thinking abt disabling twitter notifications completely |
| 12:17.12 | artemma | it's a pity there's no Gravity for harmattan. Surviving with TwimGo meanwhile |
| 12:18.02 | macmaN | Kaadlajk: could possibly be implemented with an external tool? |
| 12:19.07 | Kaadlajk | macmaN: probably yeah, you can access calendar events with mkcal and kcalcoren |
| 12:19.12 | Kaadlajk | havent looked how the feed works |
| 12:19.44 | djszapi | khertan: please provide a small snippet I can run on N900 for led blinking, if you can. |
| 12:19.46 | leinir | hmm... the twitter client needs to not scroll down automatically when you do a manual refresh... |
| 12:20.34 | macmaN | leinir: scroll up or down? im finding it mondo annoying when you open an item in the client and then feed loses your position when you come back to it. |
| 12:21.01 | macmaN | there needs to be a Clear All button too |
| 12:21.13 | macmaN | its impossible to keep track of read items otherwise |
| 12:21.37 | macmaN | unless you have like your grandmother in all your feeds only |
| 12:21.37 | leinir | macmaN: quick description - you're at the top, you pull down to cause a refresh, and the refresh now stays scrolled at the top, rather than focused on the current items |
| 12:21.50 | leinir | it's as though they looked at Plume and copied about half of that feature ;) |

| 12:24.04 | djszapi | both notify something, which one do you think of ? |
| 12:24.08 | djszapi | top or bottom ? |
| 12:24.11 | macmaN | i am noticing im using the shortcut bar about 0.5x/6mo time |
| 12:24.28 | SpeedEvil | There is only one notification LED I can see on the n9 schematic. |
| 12:25.45 | djszapi | SpeedEvil: I am not checking the led, tell me which one on the device. |
| 12:25.51 | djszapi | not checking the schematic* |
| 12:26.06 | djszapi | you should probably check the board design, not the schematic for that... |
| 12:26.07 | SpeedEvil | I do not have a N9 to hand. |
| 12:26.28 | SpeedEvil | As far as I'm aware, there is only one LED on the front of the n950 |
| 12:26.45 | djszapi | I see 2. |
| 12:27.06 | djszapi | or maybe the top is not led, well I do not know, I am not a hardware guy. |
| 12:27.29 | faenil | djszapi: the led they're talking about is the one which blinks when you're charging the n950 |
| 12:27.31 | SpeedEvil | There are the LED, the camera, the touch sensor |
| 12:27.40 | djszapi | sorry, the bottom is the camerae |
| 12:27.50 | djszapi | front camera, that is not led |
| 12:27.57 | SpeedEvil | and the ambient light sensor, I'm unsure where that is |
| 12:28.00 | DocScrutinizer | pretty please can we just forget about that topic, it's sufficiently covered with javispedro including it to http://wiki.meego.com/User:Javispedro/Activities_blocked_by_the_N9_and_N950_security_policy - no need to help with tightening policy for N9 |
| 12:28.01 | djszapi | so you were talking about the top one then. |
| 12:28.04 | SpeedEvil | Or if it's integrated into the touch sensro |
| 12:28.24 | faenil | Doc, your attitude is irritating, please. |
| 12:28.53 | faenil | yes the top one, at least that's what I saw blinking in mohammadAg's video on youtube |
| 12:29.11 | DocScrutinizer | no, this channel is irritating, once you set the most unbearable posts to /ignore |
| 12:29.36 | faenil | okay once you set what you want to /ignore, you're good to go |
| 12:29.42 | DocScrutinizer | at least as long as others didn't |
| 12:30.43 | faenil | if you don't want to join the discussion, please just be polite, no need to keep saying the same things again and again. Djszapi is not here to make our life worse, on the contrary. |
| 12:30.55 | faenil | DocScrutinizer: nothing personal against you, ;) |
| 12:31.19 | DocScrutinizer | the problem is no matter what he's in for, he actually *does* make our lifes worse |
| 12:32.21 | faenil | DocScrutinizer: I'd like to see you alone against a bunch of angry people which do nothing but attack |
| 12:33.15 | macmaN | DocScrutinizer: maybe youve argued with djszapi more than i have managed to monitor, but i have not noticed that djszapi is the majority voter on these product security problems. has it been quantified to a meaningful point how much of a part djszapi specifically plays in the decision making puzzle? |
| 12:33.47 | djszapi | macmaN: I do not decide, just propose. |
| 12:33.58 | djszapi | I am a developer only. :) |
| 12:33.59 | DocScrutinizer | pfff, sorry but when I would claim such BS like "blinking LED (as of mce doing what it's designed for) can piss users (like me)" then probably I'd deserve a bunch of angry people attacking me |
| 12:34.31 | macmaN | djszapi: yep, but your proposal definitely influences decisions. for all intents and purposes it can be viewed as a single pie. |
| 12:35.08 | djszapi | macmaN: wrong. ;) Those are just my opinions. I actually even said I have no overview about the hardware issues or about the security policies. |

[2011-09-29 12:44:43] <djszapi> it is not about headache, it is about something a user would not like (for instance me) |

| 12:37.49 | djszapi | I wish this would be the biggest problem ever... |
| 12:38.04 | macmaN | oh. ok. then it is even more unfortunate that DocScrutinizer's energy goes to waste. maybe it would be more useful to organize an anti aegis piquet next to nokiaoffice, with a separate message for an hour each day of the week. |
| 12:38.12 | DocScrutinizer | closing a virtual bug ticket "INVALID" on a "I guess" and "user wouldn't want (like me)" is mere paralyzing and not helping in any way |

| 12:39.27 | djszapi | macmaN: actually, I got confirmation for my guesses in the beginnings, so they seem to be correct. That is one reason of their why they would not like to allow. |
| 12:40.08 | khertan | macmaN: or use energy to create a viable true Open Source Mobile OS ... without major corporate control like intel |
| 12:40.13 | djszapi | but yeah, about decisions to someone else :) |
| 12:40.51 | djszapi | where is this led problem to major issues out of security ... |
| 12:41.10 | macmaN | khertan: i doubt software is the problem today so muchh. its the hardware part thats almost an insurmountable barrier apparently, unless you get some billionaire on board who could take it as a sport challeneg for himself. |
| 12:41.30 | djszapi | macmaN: there are open hardware projects. |
| 12:41.49 | djszapi | open hardware communities, too. |
| 12:42.51 | macmaN | djszapi: if there was *anything* that was worth the time of reading about it, we probably wouldnt be sitting here sweating about the future of harmattan. |
| 12:43.01 | khertan | macmaN: maybe hardware is a problem too, but today, software is the problem |
| 12:43.28 | djszapi | macmaN: yes, there are, for instance there is this open gnu jtagice to blackfin dspS |

| 12:45.48 | vladest | why any of qt apps on n950 takes hundreds of megz ? |
| 12:46.01 | vladest | according to top |
| 12:46.09 | macmaN | khertan: :) ok. i consider hardware and driver level stuff a single problem. |
| 12:46.10 | khertan | vladest: because it s writing with a sledgehammer |
| 12:46.19 | DocScrutinizer | actually the point is those random nonsensical restrictions introduced by security policy (and possibly changing with every new firmware release, or even in between releases, on a random manner), that are not documented or explained or based on any sane rationale - they destroy the platform for commercial developers as they put a continuous risk on them that their app will cease to work on next change of policy, if it can get to work at |
| 12:46.20 | DocScrutinizer | all and not runs into any invisible roadblocker right away - consider MohammadAG's notification-LED app a good example for that. No commercial developer will want to take the risk to find out about some aegis rule breaks his app concept and renders it unfeasible, after manweeks of development went into that project |
| 12:46.33 | khertan | macmaN: this is why you see it as hardware problem and me as software |
| 12:46.33 | khertan | :) |
| 12:46.35 | flux | vladest, determining process size in linux is difficult. especially the vsize, which I imagine is the number you are looking for, can get very big. |
| 12:46.41 | macmaN | khertan: there is no meaning of one without another |
| 12:46.51 | khertan | macmaN: of course |
| 12:47.20 | macmaN | but since you only show me N900 now, that lacks CPU power and RAM, does that show that there is really no hardware options. |
| 12:47.21 | vladest | flux: right, i'm looking at VSZ column |
| 12:48.02 | flux | vladest, simply mapping 100 megabytes of libraries to process address space makes that number grow by 100 MB |
| 12:48.21 | flux | vladest, but the code itself is shared between all processes that use the same libraries |
| 12:48.23 | khertan | DocScrutinizer: an other example, install community git package ... post install script call bash, wish isn't available, so you want to modify it to sh ... there is no need to use bash for this simple script ... you can't ... aegis voodoo ... |
| 12:48.37 | khertan | macmaN: n950 ? |
| 12:49.03 | vladest | flux: so, its allocated but not comitted memory? |
| 12:49.06 | khertan | macmaN: ... and 600Mhz cpu and 256Mo of ram is enough for devel a viable end user os |
| 12:49.18 | kavacha | vladest it is shared |
| 12:49.29 | kavacha | between every process that uses the libraries |
| 12:49.36 | macmaN | khertan: true. but id consider n950 level power baselineish. its just too painful otherwise. |
| 12:49.42 | kavacha | well the ro sections |
| 12:49.50 | kavacha | of those libs |
| 12:49.51 | flux | vladest, it may not even be allocated. it's mapped. it may reside on the block device actually. |
| 12:50.05 | macmaN | n950 is of course a fine pick, except manufacturing it is not in community control. |
| 12:50.07 | khertan | macmaN: anyway, we can expect true open os to be available for different device |
| 12:50.08 | flux | vladest, it is only allocated and copied to memory partially when its functions are called |
| 12:50.18 | khertan | macmaN: indeed |
| 12:50.43 | vladest | ok, then why after some time I can see message "memory low, close some apps" but VSZ is the same? |
| 12:51.13 | vladest | how to check real commited memory size by process? |
| 12:51.14 | flux | maybe because your firmware might have less than perfect behavior regarding that message.. |
| 12:51.40 | vladest | flux: my fw same as all others: beta2 :) |
| 12:52.04 | flux | and?-) |
| 12:52.11 | faenil | I have beta1 :) |
| 12:52.42 | khertan | vladest: i ve same message. |
| 12:52.48 | khertan | vladest: did you use fennec ? |
| 12:52.49 | flux | vladest, indeed it's very difficult to answer that question. RSS is a bit closer to reality, though. |
| 12:53.07 | vladest | khertan installed but not runned |
| 12:53.23 | khertan | because it s tend to drain memory over the time |
| 12:53.30 | khertan | vladest: using exchange ? |
| 12:53.40 | vladest | khertan no |
| 12:53.58 | vladest | flux: RSS meant some column in top? |
| 12:54.36 | flux | vladest, yes. resident size. |
| 12:54.48 | flux | might be 'RES' as well |
| 12:54.53 | vladest | flux: how to turn it on? |
| 12:55.29 | flux | oh, didn't notice that it doesn't have that. well, you can maybe take a look /proc/pid/status |
| 12:56.35 | vladest | flux: found :) |
| 12:59.52 | khertan | which pid is guilty ? |

| 15:31.23 | macmaN | Sazpaimon: nice! congrats! install gentoo |
| 15:33.58 | leinir | Venemo: They're very tiny, unpowered RFID chips with extremely little memory for data storage (between 96 and 512 bytes) that's used for transferring e.g. URLs to a device with an active NFC chip :) |
| 15:34.40 | leinir | (there's other types, but that's the basic one... type 3 will hold up to a meg of data, for example) |
| 15:36.18 | Sazpaimon | install gentoo |
| 15:36.30 | Sazpaimon | why do I want to install gentoo on a 1.2ghz arm machine |
| 15:36.59 | Sazpaimon | I love gentoo, but arm isnt really made for fast compilation |
| 15:37.47 | macmaN | Sazpaimon: well you x-compile on your quadcore of course :> |
| 15:38.01 | Sazpaimon | now we're getting silly |

| 15:38.57 | Sazpaimon | plus the portage tree alone is 500MB |
| 15:39.09 | Sazpaimon | sheevaplug only has a 512MB NAND |
| 15:40.49 | Sazpaimon | and if I need to install something i need to have a cross-compiling server running at all times |
| 15:40.51 | macmaN | Sazpaimon: you can mount portage over network, or actually my preferred approach is to distribute portage on squashfs |

| 15:49.58 | lardman | hmm, not interested - 488kb left to download and not interested in continuing |
| 15:50.01 | Venemo | leinir, and what's the purpose of such a small chip? |
| 15:51.31 | lardman | tries from the update page |
| 15:52.05 | leinir | Venemo: storing URLs and the like - vcards as well :) |
| 15:52.31 | Venemo | leinir, ah. so not an extemely useful piece of technology. |
| 15:53.04 | leinir | Well, the larger tags have more storage space - enough to store an app or somesuch |
| 15:54.45 | Venemo | still not extremely useful |
| 15:55.05 | Venemo | a pendrive + USB host sounds better. yes, arguably we have a lot less usb host devices than nfc devices. |
| 15:55.21 | lardman | hmm, I'm stuck, can't manually update the sdk-connectivity-tool and trying to enable developer mode fails with 216kb to download now |
| 15:57.31 | lardman | is the terminal app in the harmattan repo? |
| 15:58.04 | lardman | not that that will really do much good if I can't install it somehow |

| 16:00.15 | Venemo | leinir, yeah. |
| 16:00.18 | npm | had enough bad news for one week |
| 16:00.42 | Venemo | there were never 3500 people on MeeGo, nor Harmattan, nor Qt, nor on all of them together. IMO. |
| 16:00.59 | DocScrutinizer | npm: just book it on same account |
| 16:01.40 | berndhs | of the 3500, 2200 are the manufacturing plant in Cluj/Romania |

| 16:02.53 | Venemo | DocScrutinizer, HAHAHAHA |
| 16:03.07 | leinir | Venemo: what does your opinion have to do with it? ;) If you must abbreviate something there, TMK is what you're trying to say ;) |
| 16:03.22 | Venemo | ~TMK |
| 16:03.22 | infobot | i guess tmk is To My Knowledge |
| 16:03.28 | Venemo | leinir, you are correct :) |
| 16:03.31 | berndhs | sure that would make sense. Nokia builds a plant, starts production in 2008, makes 92000 N9s and closes the plant :) |
| 16:03.45 | leinir | thinks IMO is used too many places where it has nothing to do with that person's opinions and all to do with their knowledge or guesses ;) |
| 16:06.01 | sivang | GeneralAntilles: what did they win it for? :) |
| 16:06.16 | Venemo | leinir, in fact, I have no actual knowledge of the number of people involved. but I don't think there were more than a few hundred involved in MeeGo. |

| 19:36.51 | lardman | any thoughts appreciated |
| 19:37.13 | crevetor | if you turn your device really fast it will go away |
| 19:37.18 | lardman | lol |
| 19:37.28 | ieatlint | i've seen that arrow |
| 19:37.35 | crevetor | me too I think |
| 19:37.40 | lardman | well I did try turning it, wondering if the compass/accelerometer wanted to be recalibrated, but no |
| 19:37.44 | ieatlint | did a factory reset on an n9, and it showed that error while it did it |
| 19:38.13 | lardman | mine's occurred since doing a reset on the device |
| 19:38.21 | lardman | so I should leave it for longer you reckon? |
| 19:38.21 | hiemanshu | lardman: omg fingerprint |
| 19:38.26 | hiemanshu | dude, clean the damn thing |
| 19:38.28 | lardman | This happens after it reboots |
| 19:38.40 | crevetor | lardman: the fingerprints ? |
| 19:38.44 | lardman | hiemanshu: yeah I was going to say something about not commenting on the fingerprints! |
| 19:39.15 | hiemanshu | lardman: it only takes a few minutes to clean it up every morning |
| 19:39.31 | hiemanshu | or more than a few seconds every hour |
| 19:40.10 | lardman | hiemanshu: I forgot the cleaning while I've been cursing it all day for not wanting to give me a terminal so I can install some sw I've just compiled |
| 19:40.13 | lardman | sorry ;) |
| 19:40.31 | hiemanshu | haha |
| 19:40.32 | lardman | bbiam, baby crying, should go help! |
| 19:40.34 | ieatlint | i can get at least a partial match of a finger print from that photo |
| 19:40.41 | hiemanshu | I cant see such a nice device so dirty |
| 19:41.24 | hiemanshu | that arrow could be a signal |
| 19:41.29 | hiemanshu | turn around, and do something else |
| 19:41.36 | hiemanshu | before meego screws up again? :P |
| 19:41.38 | crevetor | ieatlint: CSI ! |
| 19:42.05 | crevetor | lardman: also stop eating bacon while hacking your N950 ;) |
| 19:44.20 | ieatlint | mmm, bacon |
| 19:45.45 | hiemanshu | mmm, babies |
| 19:46.01 | crevetor | Lol |
| 19:46.36 | hiemanshu | best served with a side of bacon :) |
| 19:46.40 | ieatlint | careful now, michael jackson got into a lot of trouble for that attitude |
| 19:47.05 | hiemanshu | ieatlint: but he was famous, and I am not |
| 19:47.06 | hiemanshu | so meh |
| 19:47.09 | hiemanshu | no one will catch me |
| 19:48.15 | ieatlint | they didn't successfully catch him either ;) |
| 19:48.34 | hiemanshu | but they wont even try in my case :P |
| 19:51.14 | lardman | hmm, it was probably the bacon it's true |
| 19:52.33 | lardman | I don't think the photo does it justice, it's not dirty or greasy to look at, just the wonders of the N900 flash and the low light in my study |
| 19:53.03 | lardman | anyway it still shows the arrow on the screen after ~12min |
| 19:53.10 | lardman | so I guess it's not going to go away |
| 19:54.13 | lardman | oh, I may be wrong |
| 19:54.25 | lardman | I took out the sim to stick in my N900 so I could still receive calls |
| 19:54.45 | lardman | just came back up to see the arrow still there, so tried a reboot, and lo and behold it's booted |
| 19:54.55 | lardman | and more interestingly it didn't ask for the passcode |
| 19:55.12 | lardman | afaiu that is a phone code, not a sim pin as it's 5 numbers |
| 19:55.25 | lardman | if so, minor security flaw there |

| 21:33.54 | RST38h | Moo,javispedro |
| 21:34.07 | javispedro | moo |
| 21:35.11 | javispedro | btw I am really intrigued by this "infrared touchscreen thing", need to find one of these new kindles to try it.. |
| 21:37.10 | javispedro | in theory sounds like a great idea (unless you want to do N9-style curved screen), but I'm just pondering the resolution.. |
| 21:38.55 | *** join/#harmattan crevetor (~antoine@modemcable210.76-70-69.static.videotron.ca) |
| 21:42.57 | RST38h | javispedro: ir touchscreens are not new. generally bulky though, that was the main weakness of this aproach |
| 21:46.36 | *** join/#harmattan elcaset_ (~elcaset@c-174-61-203-59.hsd1.wa.comcast.net) |
| 21:46.36 | SpeedEvil | ?And the other weakness is that they are sharply limited resolution |
| 21:46.51 | SpeedEvil | As they tend to have only several emitters and receivers along the edges |
| 21:47.25 | ab | that's fine for the case of ebook reader |
| 21:47.48 | special | it's apparently good enough to support a keyboard |
| 21:48.10 | javispedro | SpeedEvil: well, I think it entirely depends on how they much where willing to spend |
| 21:48.24 | javispedro | from tech point they can put a pretty useful resolution in there |
| 21:48.41 | javispedro | but it'll probably be over-expensive, and I am not expecting much from a $100 thing.. |
| 21:49.05 | special | it's only $100 if you give amazon permission to show you ads on it forever. |
| 21:49.18 | special | tasteful lock-screen ads, but ads regardless |
| 21:49.37 | javispedro | there are more readers than amazon's with this screen |

| 21:51.17 | javispedro | .... zForce® supports high resolution pen writing... gimme data! |
| 21:51.52 | special | they might have been able to make the top 3/4s of the screen a much lower touch resolution than the area where a keyboard is shown |
| 21:52.15 | javispedro | that'd probably be even more expensive |
| 21:52.49 | RST38h | javispedro: ponder on this one: the new 5+" Samsung Note comes with a stylus |
| 21:52.58 | RST38h | javispedro: yet, it is still gorilla glass display etc |
| 21:53.03 | javispedro | I've tried capacitive+passive |
| 21:53.09 | javispedro | it's evil. |
| 21:53.12 | RST38h | javispedro: ? |
| 21:53.49 | javispedro | RST38h: that's it probably a capacitive screen with a passive layer (aka a wacom) |
| 21:55.19 | RST38h | javispedro: we have been arguing here just WHAT it is |
| 21:55.47 | RST38h | javispedro:I am voting for a polonium-tipped stylus that charges the screen when touching =) |
| 21:56.20 | javispedro | heh |
| 21:56.25 | RST38h | javispedro: might be some kind of an rfid though |
| 21:57.14 | javispedro | so it's not even a wacom? |
| 21:57.16 | javispedro | pfft. |
| 21:58.26 | javispedro | on the other side it's nice to hear that the new overlords do not consider a stylus taboo. |
