00:01.50PuffTheMagicDarkSpecter: ?
00:02.42PuffTheMagicDarkSpecter: why would u run a "always on" service and expose all your files to the public in the first place?
00:08.33DarkSpecterPuffTheMagic: pre to pre wasnt my intiial goal, my goal is over the air bidirectional filetransfer
00:09.59PuffTheMagicwell pre to pre, imho, is the harder and more interesting objective
00:10.16DarkSpecterPuffTheMagic: for pre to pre i guess bt filetransfer should be the way to go, but thats another project, or maybe paln will implement it in the future
00:10.18PuffTheMagicpc to pre is 2nd hardest
00:10.22PuffTheMagicthen pre to pc
00:10.33oilwants pre2pre multiplayer game action
00:10.33PuffTheMagicDarkSpecter: this should all be 1 project
00:10.53PuffTheMagicDarkSpecter: and it should work over bt or wifi
00:11.03PuffTheMagicor usbnet
00:11.34DarkSpectershould, but as long as pres dont get a sabersense chip pre2pre will be a special case :P
00:11.52PuffTheMagicwhy is pre2pre special
00:11.57PuffTheMagicbesides needing a custom gui
00:12.52DarkSpecterbecause it is, it would be easy to expose the webserver to gsm/evdo, but that would only give us unidirectional filetransfer
00:13.21DarkSpecterand that only for those that arent portblocked by their provider
00:13.38PuffTheMagicu can run on any port
00:13.43PuffTheMagicno thats not an issue
00:14.05PuffTheMagicftp is bi directional... and wouldnt require a whole www server
00:14.11DarkSpecteri think so too, especialy as we wont be running on 60 but on 443
00:14.14dBsoonerhow do you trace luna events? Like i want to know why when I tap on a certain part of a notification, the notification doesn't clear.
00:14.28PuffTheMagicwho said 443?
00:14.37DarkSpecterhttps = 443
00:14.46PuffTheMagicu can run https on any port
00:15.22DarkSpectersure you can, but 443 is default, and thats what your webbrowser connects to when you give hin a https address
00:15.49PuffTheMagicso what?
00:16.00PuffTheMagicwhy are you getting hung up on ports here
00:17.30oilthinks it should use port 1337
00:17.35DarkSpecterjust try to think that it SHOULD be as easy as possible for joe average, YOU can use any port you want, and any protocol you want, but what matters are sensible defaults for joe average to not have to tinker with config files
00:17.38bougymanwhat is this conversation about?
00:17.44bougymanrsync works for any of the above methods.
00:17.55bougymanbt, wireless, or usbnet.
00:18.07PuffTheMagicDarkSpecter: port is a option, i dont care about it or what the default is
00:18.16PuffTheMagicno need to get hung up on what port we use
00:18.18PuffTheMagicor u use
00:20.25PuffTheMagicbougyman: rsync isnt that AM/windows friendly
00:20.34PuffTheMagicbougyman: they cant even ssh
00:20.34bougymanit's not?
00:20.39bougymani use it on windows all the time.
00:20.57DarkSpecterwhen we end up using a zenit ylike service we could even ask in post-inst what port to use
00:21.00bougymanfor totally cluless windows users I set up sftp and show them filezilla
00:21.00PuffTheMagicbougyman: can u use rsync on a few windows box with out any special app?
00:21.11PuffTheMagicDarkSpecter: ewwwww
00:21.20PuffTheMagicDarkSpecter: you are going about this all wrong
00:21.45bougymanPuffTheMagic: what do you consider special?  i don't consider rsync a special thing, per se.
00:22.25PuffTheMagicDarkSpecter: why wouldnt we make a service/gui for the pre?
00:22.37PuffTheMagicDarkSpecter: why would u just install a web server with a static setup?
00:24.24DarkSpecterPuffTheMagic: sorry but i dont realy get what your problem is, you like your ftp idea so fine use it then, but what rwhitby and me want is something more secure and still userfriendly
00:24.37PuffTheMagicLOL
00:24.59PuffTheMagicyou idea in general is not secure
00:25.13PuffTheMagicwhat i had in mind...
00:26.15PuffTheMagicis a gui that u open on the pre, select a file or files that you want to share, which exposes them on a vfs over ftp or ftps
00:26.15PuffTheMagicwebdav is no more secure than ftp
00:26.54PuffTheMagicand maybe something like avahi to discover devices to share with
00:26.54DarkSpecterdav over https IS more secure than ftp
00:27.18PuffTheMagicdav over https is using SSL/TLS just like ftp would
00:27.21PuffTheMagichow is that more secure?
00:27.43PuffTheMagichow is sharing a whole directory more secure than a vfs of individually selected files?
00:28.16DarkSpecterfor simple downloads from the pre dav isnt even needed then, simply use your browser to access the webserver, dav is for being able to send files TO the pre
00:29.14PuffTheMagicDarkSpecter: yeab but you keep ignoring pre to pre
00:29.17DarkSpecterftp over ssl would require a ftp programm that is capable of that, afaik no browser does that
00:30.40DarkSpecterPuffTheMagic: pre2pre ... would work to, simply point your pre webbrowser to the webserver of the other pre
00:31.18PuffTheMagichow do you pick what files you want to share?
00:31.21DarkSpectershould always work when both are using the same wifi network, wan depends on the provider blocking ports

00:32.02DarkSpecterPuffTheMagic: how would you pick what to share when you use ftp instead ?
00:32.32PuffTheMagicDarkSpecter: cause what ever protocol is used I was imagining a custom service/gui to handle all that
00:32.36PuffTheMagicand a vfs
00:33.33DarkSpecterPuffTheMagic: then by all means go and implement that in a sane manner, https and dav is something that is available now, your idea might be nice but still is only a brainfart
00:34.04PuffTheMagicyour idea of exposing entire folders and sharing them over wan is a brainfart
00:34.24*** join/#webos-internals jrmuizel (n=jrmuizel@CPE00095bcb93b9-CM00111ae02e86.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com)
00:35.17DarkSpecterbut you know that you can define what you want to use as your webroot
00:35.50PuffTheMagicDarkSpecter: id rather use neon in a custom service if webdav is used
00:36.08DarkSpecterwhat you want is a IM style filetransfer, all nice and dandy, but thats also just a cornercase
00:36.29DarkSpectersure neon is a great dav client
00:36.58PuffTheMagiccan be a server too
00:37.52PuffTheMagicDarkSpecter: i guess I really didnt mean to be arguing the protocol as much as how tranfers are initiated and how files are exposed
00:37.55DarkSpecterwhy dont we simply agree taht we both have different requirements and need then solved differently
00:38.08PuffTheMagicthey dont need to be solved differently
00:38.15PuffTheMagicthis all 1 task
00:38.23PuffTheMagicsharing files over TCP
00:38.53PuffTheMagicwith zero to minimal extra software on other machines
00:38.59PuffTheMagicof course the pre will need something
00:39.20DarkSpecteri DONT want single file fransfers, what i want is to be able do simply access various files from a random pc, and for that https and/or dav are the better solution
00:39.43PuffTheMagici NEVER said single
00:40.14DarkSpecterno but you made it sound like that
00:40.26PuffTheMagici've always file or files
00:41.01PuffTheMagicbut let me understand this... you are ok with installing a webserver on a PC to share files but not a ftp server?
00:41.24DarkSpecterthere is our problem, you think in terms of a couple of files, i think of having folders accessible at my fingertips
00:41.52DarkSpecterbasicaly what my goal is is to use the pre as a wifi enables usb-stick
00:42.32*** join/#webos-internals amrcc (i=603c964b@gateway/web/freenode/x-bozxyohwwgmdmalc)
00:42.34PuffTheMagici am not thinking about "files"
00:42.52PuffTheMagicwhat i am thinking about, its a not having my whole filesystem exposed all the time
00:43.19PuffTheMagicand only allowing specific devices access
00:43.29PuffTheMagicsince security is such a big issue
00:43.48DarkSpecternobody forces you to do that, just set a empty folder as your webroot and put the stuff in ther you want to share
00:44.02PuffTheMagichow can u put shit on there?
00:44.11PuffTheMagicthere is no way to move files into that folder from the pre
00:44.22PuffTheMagicunless u use a terminal
00:44.38DarkSpecterwell, nothing is perfect out of the box
00:44.41PuffTheMagicand if u can do that u could just transfter the files using ssh
00:45.02DarkSpecterassuming that there is a sshd running on the target
00:45.28PuffTheMagicwell u are suggesting that people would want to install a web server just to share files
00:45.44DarkSpecteranyway, i need o get some sleep now, have to go to work in a few hours

03:14.16StikPre for work Droid for play

03:15.11PuffTheMagicthe buy a beagle board
03:15.14PuffTheMagicnot a cell phone
03:15.42StikI'd dump the Droid before I dumped my pre though
03:16.03jacquesI guess the beagle board is a better deal than the various OMAP3 gumstix
03:16.06PrototypicLaptopreally Stik? the reviews I read said droid was way more polished than the pre
03:16.47tmztdo they have hdmi/dvi?
03:16.50AbyssulPrototypicLaptop: it's all based on what you look for in a phone
03:16.59PuffTheMagicandroid phones are confusing

03:17.14PuffTheMagicand non-intuitive UI

03:19.03PrototypicLaptopit was so ghetto but I won the race
03:19.08tmztarm carpc is cool
03:19.17tmztbeats the power issues with x86
03:19.24StikIt is more polished but the keyboard sucks and nothing beats the cards in webos

03:26.17PrototypicLaptopit 's so laggy
03:26.25tmztwebos is no younger than android in it's current form
03:26.58PuffTheMagicso you are saying that a fast and hard to use UI is "more polished" than a easy to use semi fast ui
03:27.00PuffTheMagic?
03:27.28StikI don't need to reboot my pre much. I actually get more app crashes on the Droid also.

08:27.09rwhitbyegaudet: just EPR or the whole autopatch feed for testing?

09:01.34geistno

09:01.55morphisdo you know somebody who might know something about it?
09:01.57geistcontrol stuff over serial, bulk of the data over usb
09:02.02geistno. it's proprietary
09:02.07morphishm ok
09:02.12geistblame qualcomm
09:02.23morphisdeveloped by Palm or Qualcomm?
09:02.24geistthey're all kinds of proprietary
09:02.26geistQC
09:02.30morphisdamn it
09:02.42geistthough i suspect we tweaked it quite a bit. i believe we have a source license and the modem team hacks on it some
09:02.53morphisah ok
09:02.53geistthe stuff that runs on the modem, that is
09:03.23geistsame applies to pixi, but it's a different modem chip, and it uses a shared memory protocol to speak to the other core
09:03.30geistthey're sharing the same memory bank, the two cpus
09:03.34morphisah ok
09:03.47morphisso we have to working on reverse engineering the protocol ...
09:04.22morphisbut it's good to hear, that the protocol is developed by QC, so it might be used in some other devices with a QC modem
09:04.40morphisgeist: is there anybody from the modem team on the irc channel?
09:06.09geistnot that i know of
09:06.12morphisok
09:06.25geistand anyway, the protocol between the modem and webos is probably the most protected thing we have
09:07.09geistnot that it's magic or anything, just, you know
09:07.17morphisyeah I know
09:07.22morphisit seems to be very simple
09:07.30morphisbut has a lot of configuration parameters :)
09:07.51morphisan that causes a lot of work for us
09:08.04geistyep, and it's likely to change at any time
09:08.16geistQC loves autogenerating shared protocols
09:08.35geistso that enumerations can change between releases, etc
09:08.40geistit's a nightmare to maintain
09:08.42morphisbut it's the question if you change the protocol on the Palm Pre from one to next day
09:08.52morphisreally?
09:08.53geisti suspect it might
09:09.04morphisso from 1.3 to 1.4 of webOS?
09:09.10geistwho knows
09:09.28geistbut if the modem team switches to a new release of the modem from QC, it's entirely likely everything will chance
09:09.36geistbecause a lot of the protocol is autogenerated, i believe
09:09.52geistso as long as both sides of code move simultaneously, it doesn't matter

09:10.27geistthe modem team is responsible for firmware buidls on the modem and the TIL on webos
09:10.47geistso the protocol between the TIL and the modem is not considered to be something that has to be fixed in stone

09:11.31morphiswebOS doen't care, but we, the people who want to bring other software as webOS to the Palm Pre

09:59.05morphisrwhitby: jepp
09:59.20morphisand thats all a bit hackisch
09:59.25morphisno clean solution
09:59.54morphisand we want to push our own solution, the freesmartphone framework
10:00.01morphisnot some solution from palm
10:02.20rwhitbymorphis: understood.
10:02.38morphisrwhitby: but maybe we get it working
10:02.53rwhitbygoes back to cross compiling the lunaservice dummy link library for the autobuilder so we can have zenity on the Pre
10:02.56morphisI made some more research last week and discover a little bit more from the frame structure
10:06.16rwhitbyI'm thinking of patching openssh to keep the Pre awake (but screen off) when there is an active ssh connection.
10:07.29rwhitbymorphis: it must be fun, but sometimes frustrating, reverse engineering the binary protocol ...
10:08.53morphisrwhitby: you say it ..
10:09.27morphisand I am currently the only one who is working active on this
10:09.27geisti'm a bit bummed that folks stopped trying to reverse novacom
10:09.27geisti was totally enjoying the hell out of that
10:09.29morphis:)
10:09.51geistotoh i dont work on novacom anymore. handed all of that off to another team
10:10.01geistand it's really hard to give it up without just totally being hands off
10:12.24rwhitbygeist: you just made it too easy to use the novacom drivers as they are ...
10:12.52geistaside from all the bumps with various versions of windows and whatnot
10:13.52rwhitbygeist: right now I'm looking at doing a port of zenity to webOS, so that postinst scripts can ask the user questions.
10:14.54rwhitbythe linux part would pass the zenity arguments up to a webos app through the launch commands, and have a dbus service where the app can return the result, with a hash to make sure that another rogue webos app has not intercepted
10:15.45rwhitby(much like we do the postinst execute confirmation in ipkgservice)
10:22.34morphisgeist: another question, this time about kernel stuff :)
10:22.47morphiswebOS distributes the sd8xxx and bridgedriver modules
10:23.02morphisthey are both with MODULE_LICENSE gpl builded
10:23.25geistohyeah?
10:23.37morphisbut Palm Opensource Support told me that they cannot publish the sources as they are licenced by Palm from Marvell and are not GPL
10:23.54geisti'll ask
10:24.17morphisgreat
10:24.28geistwe (the kernel team) don't write those two drivers
10:24.34morphisok
10:24.35geistthat's precisely why they're modules in the first place
10:25.12morphisbut if there are under a certain licence and not GPL they should report GPL as used licence
10:25.36geistI'll have to check into i
10:25.57geisttrouble is of course if you write a module and declare you're not GPL you can't use half the kernel api
10:26.23morphisyeah, but then you have to report another licence and not GPL
10:26.36geistprobably
10:27.12morphisI already talked with some people which a familiar with that stuff and they told me that I am right
10:27.29geistcourse i dont know what then just keeps us from changing the apis that are exported to be non gpl
10:27.34geistsince we post the source to that
10:27.41morphisto what?
10:27.53geiststuff exported EXPORT_GPL
10:28.03morphisah
10:28.22morphisbut the two modules uses EXPORT_GPL stuff
10:28.32morphisso no way around the GPL
10:29.06geistright, but against the kernel we build
10:29.06geistand are free to modify
10:29.06geistincluding changing what is exported to be not EXPORT_GPL
10:29.06geistor at least that's how i read it
10:29.07morphisjep, when you modified the two modules to use no EXPORT_GPL stuff you are fine
10:29.17morphiswhat as I though it isn't so
10:29.18geistyeah, but that may be impossible and still work
10:29.29geistbut really, i'll ask
10:29.37geisti have no idea what is in either of those two drivers
10:29.49geistwell, the bridgedriver i do, it's code from TI
10:30.00geistand it's been gpled
10:30.03morphisah ok
10:30.11geisthowever, i suspect we got it from TI under another license
10:30.12morphisand you didn't modificate it?
10:30.32geistoh we modified the hell out of it, since the original driver was an unusable unstable mess
10:31.27geistwhy we dont dump the source i dont know
10:31.33morphishm ok
10:31.41geisti know us on the kernel team are trying to be transparent
10:31.49geistbut not all of the teams share the same sentiment, i believe
10:31.54morphis:)
10:32.06morphiscause you are close to the linux origin :)
10:32.18geistwell, we *have* to be transparent anyway, which is a nice forcing function
10:32.38geistbut you know, could be a total pita when you modify the kernel and still be technically compliant
10:32.55geistlike obfuscate all the code, remove licenses, etc
10:32.59morphis:)
10:33.05geistbut you'd get serious crap from the community
10:33.12geistand we have no interest at all in any of that
10:33.22geistthere's no secret sauce to linux kernel and platform support
10:34.05geistit also pays off, it's kind of freeing to have your code eventually have to be open sourced
10:34.50geistkeeps away the temptation to take your stuff and make a little walled box of proprietary
10:35.13geistand when dealing with other teams that are less open source friendly you have the ultimate bargaining chip: you have no choice
10:35.44morphisso bad?

10:36.30geistlike add a bunch of proprietary crap to the kernel, etc
10:36.43morphisyeah ok, but the other teams I meant
10:36.53geistbeats m
10:37.02geistme, I've gone pretty much totally into the hypothetical at this point
10:37.13geisti'm not saying theres any particular problem or anything
10:37.28morphisok
10:37.28geisti'm just saying that negotiations as to how to do things are much simpler when you deal with kernel + gpl
10:37.40geistthere's only one way to do it so no point wasting time discussing it
10:38.19morphisthats the other way, when you write software for linux for the userland

17:30.27Devo1so what is different in scp as opposed to sftp?
17:30.56gkatsevnothing really. depends on if you have an sftp client/server on the device
17:31.03gkatsevDevo1: running openssh or dropbear?
17:31.10Devo1both now
17:31.17Devo1had dropbear and just setup openssh
17:31.22gkatsevok, then you could probably use sftp
17:31.37Devo1gives me permission errors if i try to upload to the media partition
17:31.39gkatsevbut scp should definitely work because that is over ssh
17:31.46Devo1only can access the home directory
17:31.55gkatsevDevo1: to /media/internal/ ?

17:32.30Devo1and since it was created by sudo normal users probably can access it

17:33.12Devo1i tried giving it a+w, but it didnt seem to affect anything

17:38.07Devo1using 222
17:38.21gkatsevperhaps sftp isnt set up correctly?
17:38.25Devo1which lets me upload fine to the home directory
17:38.31Devo1just not any of the other directories

21:21.46dBsoonerSo that is why I was confuseled.

21:23.06dBsooner?
21:23.14rwhitbythey had to go somewhere, cause Jason's computer was dying.
21:23.26dBsoonerso are they ready for primetime?
21:23.58rwhitbythey are all the latest released versions of any of Jason's patches that are not already in Preware, or updates to ones that are.
21:24.29dBsoonerSo was it a mistake to have two versions of "hide app launcher"?

21:48.27dBsoonerrwhitby: so you think that by June, the Pre will no longer be under active development?
21:48.30linuxjacques"content blocked" that is

21:49.51linuxjacquesdamn, looks like I meesed some good discussion
21:52.51rwhitbylinuxjacques: logs are in the usual place
21:55.11dBsoonerrwhitby: im still confused on this quick launcher.. one says "Hides the quick launch bar in the launcher" the other "Hides the quick launch bar (while still alowing the quick launch wave)"
21:55.23dBsoonerso does that mean that with one you get the wave and the other you don't?
21:55.50rwhitbyfirst *only* hides the bar when the launcher is active.  second hides it always.
21:56.05rwhitbywave is unaffected for both I believe
21:58.23dBsoonerthen the descriptions he put are misleading.

22:08.56linuxjacquesdiosif: we're not ignoring you. I guess nobody has any ideas :-\
22:09.07irdOne trick I noticed was the swipe/delete thing. Where if you're in a list of things like in the messaging app and you want to delete a lot of messages or conversations. You just swipe one and then swipe another and the original one you swiped is deleted.
