00:23.25 | rwhitby | uNiXpSyChO: I'm figuring we add sticky compcache to Govnah, and have F10x disable their compcache if that file exists, and then we should be close to a public release |

00:32.09 | uNiXpSyChO | rwhitby: 0.4.8 looks good to me. changes compcache when F10x already had it enabled. so having it disable on boot would work. |

00:58.38 | BeeRad | rwhitby: Thoughts on my question above? |
00:58.59 | Gollyzila | Lets say it's set to 16mb. Once the device's RAM hits 16, compcache kicks in? |
00:59.13 | rwhitby | BeeRad: nope. "better" is too subjective to have any opinion on it :) |
01:00.16 | BeeRad | rwhitby; True, but subjective opinion doesn't cover up objective facts. I'm asking based on the facts presented. |
01:00.37 | rwhitby | there is only one fact presented so far. Linpack runs faster. |

01:07.21 | BeeRad | rwhitby: How do you know I'm not well versed in the realm of coding? |
01:09.35 | rwhitby | BeeRad: I'm assuming you are, and am waiting for your results ;) |
01:10.49 | rwhitby | Gollyzila: I think (I'm not 100% sure of what it does either), that the memlimit is the amount of memory that compcache will use for compressed ram pages before dumping them out to the flash area instead. And it takes that amount of memory away from your programs, making swapping happen earlier than it otherwise would have. |
01:12.57 | Gollyzila | rwhitby: thank you for the response. So the higher the memlimit, the less RAM I have for programs? |
01:13.32 | rwhitby | no, the less ram you have for fastest access before compcache starts slowing access down by compressing. |
01:13.50 | BeeRad | rwhitby: Totally incorrect unfortunately. Totally ignorant. :( Got my firs smartphone in Sept. of 2009 and I know nothing about code. I just wait for updates like the rest of your faithful followers. I just like the title of Alpha Tester. I'm really a fake, a front, and a total nOOb. |
01:14.05 | rwhitby | (but on the other hand, the more compressed space you have before compcache has to dump the swap pages out to very slow flash) |

01:20.50 | Tman | ugh.. TWiki is becoming a pain.. any recommendations for web applications for a private tester-developer collaboration site? |
01:20.55 | rwhitby | So many people expect a custom kernel to be able to magically provide performance and battery life in excess of what Palm engineers were able to achieve. Whilst that might be true for specific usage cases, for the general consumer demographic you have to basically assume that Palm engineers know exactly what they are doing and have got the best out of the hardware that they could. |
01:21.37 | Tman | I wanted a wiki and blog.. it gives me that (sort of,) but there's no way to email all the testers.. and the only semi-way is broken -_- |
01:21.45 | BeeRad | rwhitby: Well said. I am fully aware that any changes I am making could possibly make my life WORSE, not better. |

01:34.25 | rwhitby | Tman: we use Trac now. Looking at redmine as a possible upgrade on that |
01:35.19 | rwhitby | Tman: dotProject looks more like what I'd use as a manager, not a developer. |
01:35.47 | Tman | oh gotcha |
01:37.19 | BeeRad | rwhitby: Are those Linpack results posted anywhere or just word of mouth? |
01:39.02 | rwhitby | BeeRad: jhojho posted them at http://gist.github.com/443429 |
01:45.09 | BeeRad | 55229Kflops = 5.52Mflops correct assumption? |
01:46.02 | rwhitby | dunno whether Mflops are usually Mflops or Miflops (e.g. GB vs GiB) |
01:48.18 | BeeRad | Froyo 2.2 - 38.392 Mflops, Eclair 2.1 on EVO - 5.79Mflops, and 2.1 Eclair on Droid - 4.538Mflops so just curious where the Pixi and Pre fell in that. |
01:50.33 | uNiXpSyChO | wouldnt that be 55.2Mflops? |
01:51.12 | BeeRad | uNiXpSyChO: why I was asking.... |
01:51.51 | uNiXpSyChO | that's the way i read it. the only real comparison is the EVO or Nexus 1 which are both 1gig |
01:51.55 | BeeRad | uNiXpSyChO: I'm just comparing test results to Linpack running on Android. |
01:52.41 | uNiXpSyChO | Froyo will only be faster with apps due to the new JIT |
01:53.09 | BeeRad | uNiXpSyChO: The Froyo 2.2 results above were on Nexus. |

02:41.20 | Tman | yes -_- |
02:41.24 | rwhitby | uNiXpSyChO: I'd say that building your own kernel should be a prerequisite for 800+ testing. It's not as if it's hard to do with preware/build.git |
02:41.38 | bpadalino | why do you think switching to debian would help out ? |
02:41.40 | Tman | I have a libSDL_gfx.a that I compiled awhile back on WIDK (before a HD failure wiped me out) but when I try and use it, all the color mappings are wrong.. I might need to edit by hand |

03:18.20 | BeeRad | jhojho: I bet she would. |
03:18.45 | hborders | anyway, to build liboauth, I need zlib, libcrypt, and libssl (or I have to build Mozilla NSS) |
03:18.56 | rwhitby | hborders: a native IRC client |

03:32.08 | rwhitby | hborders: sure, Palm don't care what framework you use to compile your apps. Note that we don't have hybrid support in WIDK yet cause the PDK that includes it is not public yet. |
03:33.33 | hborders | rwhityby: That's fine. I mostly want to get this running on my own pre, so I don't mind so much if it doesn't run on pixis yet. I'm sure you guys will get public stuff integrated quickly |

03:44.59 | hborders | rwhitby: I imagine most of my issues will be pdk related once I get my command-line app working on my pre |
03:45.35 | hborders | rwhitby: is there a best time to get on IRC and find extremely helpful people like you? |
03:45.41 | rwhitby | hborders: but we'll be trying to get some hybrid apps in the app catalog too, so discussion about that here is fine |
03:46.08 | rwhitby | hborders: the trick with IRC is to ask a question and then idle until someone finds it interesting and answers |
03:48.16 | hborders | rwhitby: ok. thanks for the tips. I'll try getting everything set up using your instructions and see where I get. |
03:48.31 | rwhitby | hborders: ok, good luck. |
03:48.40 | hborders | rwhitby: is there a list of libs that WIDK has, or will I see them in /usr/lib after I'm done? |
03:49.00 | rwhitby | hborders: grep NAME packages/*/* |
03:49.09 | rwhitby | hborders: grep NAME packages/*/Makefile |
03:49.22 | hborders | rwhitby: I just need zlib, libcrypt, libssl, and libcurl to compile liboauth |

03:51.51 | hborders | rwhitby: thanks. I'll just try to get going with this on my own and not waste anymore of your time. it looks like you guys have everything I need to get my proof of concept going. Thanks again for all your help! |
03:53.06 | rwhitby | hborders: building new libraries for oauth in widk is not wasting our time |
03:54.23 | rwhitby | hborders: and now I know who to go to if I have eclipse RCP questions :) |
03:55.04 | hborders | rwhitby: that is something I can definitely help you with. Eclipse RCP, Java, Javascript, iPhone. I'm your guy, or I probably know your guy. :) |
03:55.43 | rwhitby | hborders: I'm not always helpful to everyone who just turns up ;) |

04:17.41 | Tman | one thing that amazes me about debian (apt, really) is how fast it installs packages, after using gentoo for years |
04:18.14 | Tman | obviously source-based is no comparison, but it still impresses me :p |
04:18.28 | rwhitby | Abyssul: govnah has a known quirk at the moment where it is expecting the items in your profile and the items that the service returns to not only match in name and values but to also match in the order in which they are listed. this is causing profile names not to match in some circumstances. |

05:09.48 | hborders | rwhitby: what gui should I install on ubuntu server? |
05:09.56 | hborders | rwhitby: or do you not use a gui? |
05:10.48 | rwhitby | Tman: fixed |
05:10.56 | ka6sox-work | gui and server should NEVER be used in the same breath |
05:11.03 | rwhitby | hborders: actually, I'm using Ubuntu 10.4 desktop now |
05:11.18 | hborders | ok. i was wondering about that. |
05:11.33 | hborders | since I just finished installing server, can I just apt-get a gui? |
05:12.06 | jhojho | I only really use gui for 2 things. firefox and terminal =) |
05:12.21 | hborders | I'm hoping to use eclipse cdt for development |
05:12.25 | hborders | xcode really blows |
05:12.49 | Tman | hborders: you can use eclipse on mac |
05:13.14 | hborders | yes, but WIDK recommends ubuntu 10.4 lts |
05:13.31 | hborders | so im running it in a VM, but I installed server not desktop |
05:13.38 | Tman | yeah |
05:13.41 | Tman | I have something similar |
05:13.42 | hborders | and instead of doing a new download, can't I just apt-get a gui? |
05:13.55 | Tman | my setup is to just have a base debian system for WIDK, and SSH into it |
05:13.57 | rwhitby | hborders: I use iTerm to access the linux VM for compiling linux stuff :) |
05:14.20 | rwhitby | hborders: I nfs mount a case-sensitive disk image mounted on the mac side into the linux side |
05:14.31 | hborders | lol |
05:14.32 | *** part/#webos-internals guenots (~guenots@adsl-75-15-200-67.dsl.renocs.sbcglobal.net) |
05:14.42 | rwhitby | then I just edit on the mac side :) |
05:14.55 | hborders | rwhitby: ok. that makes sense |
05:15.02 | rwhitby | and have two tabs next to each other in iTerm for Mac and Linux |
05:15.04 | Tman | rwhitby: hmm good call @ NFS.. I'll look into that |
05:15.21 | hborders | I was hoping to set everything up in eclipse cdt and just use that |
05:15.27 | hborders | so i'm willing to just run in linux |
05:15.30 | rwhitby | virtualbox shared folders can't do linux fs semantics |
05:15.44 | hborders | i'm using fusion |
05:15.47 | hborders | so I should be fine |
05:16.28 | Tman | whoo toolchain done |
05:16.32 | rwhitby | hborders: oh, fusion can share case-sensitive filesystems with symlinks between host and guest? |
05:17.29 | hborders | rwhitby: hrm, actually, that might be a little much. I dunno. Anyways, I figured I'd just start with doing everything in linux and then move stuff back to mac as I become better at this |
05:17.48 | hborders | so does anyone have an apt-get gui suggestion? otherwise, I'll just download desktop and start over |
05:18.13 | Tman | I believe I saw somewhere that the package is ubuntudesktop |
05:18.14 | rwhitby | hborders: I'd start over. I don't understand Linux GUIs. |
05:19.56 | jhojho | rwhitby: it's kind of frankenstein but you could run dropbox on the mac and linux vm =) |
05:20.19 | rwhitby | jhojho: no good when not connected to the internet though |
05:20.31 | dtzWill | hborders: the big two are gnome/kde. ubuntu defaults to gnome, that's what desktop has. |
05:20.39 | rwhitby | I need cross-platform mounting on the bus :) |
05:20.46 | dtzWill | hborders: i think the metapackage for the whole bundle is 'gnome-desktop', but don't hold me to it |
05:20.48 | jhojho | I think dropbox has an option to do local sync between local machines |
05:20.59 | hborders | I just did apt-get install ubuntu-desktop |

05:37.18 | BeeRad | Kyusaku: Advanced Configuration for App Launcher |
05:38.10 | BeeRad | Kyusaku: No other icon patches though. |
05:38.45 | Kyusaku | Advanced Config does A LOT to the launcher files |
05:39.55 | Kyusaku | a lot of patches cannot coexist |
05:40.27 | BeeRad | Kyusaku: Removing to see if thats the issue. |
05:40.44 | Kyusaku | it most likely is the issue |
05:41.03 | Kyusaku | unless the patch developer says it should be compatible |
05:42.18 | Kyusaku | description says may not work with other patches |
05:42.37 | BeeRad | Kyusaku: Still denied. |
05:42.48 | Kyusaku | did you restart luna? |
05:43.37 | BeeRad | Kyusaku: Yes. |
05:44.27 | Kyusaku | consult the patch developer then |
05:44.42 | Kyusaku | there's a thread |
05:44.49 | BeeRad | Kyusaku: The only other patch I can think of is the Glass Effect. |
05:45.15 | Kyusaku | I never used that patch |
05:45.21 | ka6sox-work | Tman, you still here? |
05:45.26 | Tman | yup |
05:45.34 | Kyusaku | but if it's an app launcher patch.... |
05:45.53 | BeeRad | Kyusaku: Trying it. |
05:46.16 | ka6sox-work | Tman, that is just the coolest! |
05:46.39 | ka6sox-work | hmmm...lets see how warm this makes the pre. |
05:46.50 | Tman | ka6sox-work: haha :D |
05:46.51 | ka6sox-work | Tman, have you tested it on pixi? |
05:47.12 | Tman | ka6sox-work: nope, I don't have one to test |
05:47.21 | ka6sox-work | checks it out on pixi |
05:47.23 | ka6sox-work | jas |
05:48.08 | Tman | ka6sox-work: and I might have the res hard coded in there somewhere.. /most/ of the app is ready for any resolution but some of my impatience with opengl hacking might have undermined that :p |
05:48.10 | BeeRad | Kyusaku: Glass Effect was the problem. Lite List Launcher installed. |
05:48.25 | Kyusaku | BeeRad: here is the patch thread if you need to contact the author |
05:48.46 | ka6sox-work | Tman, yep, not gonna open on the pixi, YET. |
05:48.54 | ka6sox-work | okay worth trying |
05:49.07 | Kyusaku | BeeRad: I'd imagine Advanced Launcher config would also be a problem though |
05:49.32 | Kyusaku | I don't have glass effect but do have advanced launcher and it won't install |
05:49.36 | Tman | ka6sox-work: ha well I will look into it. might be pretty stressful on the CPU though |
05:50.40 | hborders | looks like desktop apt-get succeeded. |
05:51.47 | ka6sox-work | Tman, don't sweat it...it works great...I pushed my oscillator to 19khz and still had a good signal |
05:52.12 | ka6sox-work | Tman, from about 150hz to 19khz |
05:53.04 | Tman | ka6sox-work: ok good.. I haven't actually gone out and tested it with a real oscillator yet.. as sad as that is :p |
05:53.14 | BeeRad | Kyusaku: Advanced Configuration for App Launcher just loaded up for me with Lite List Launcher. Glass Effect would not. |
05:53.39 | Tman | ka6sox-work: so it doesn't pick up well below 150Hz? |
05:53.47 | Kyusaku | ok good luck with that |
05:53.55 | ka6sox-work | didn't want to hurt the little speaker |
05:54.08 | Tman | ok gotcha |
05:54.23 | Tman | there are some subs I can go test it with :p |
05:54.38 | ka6sox-work | give me that 20hz rumble |
05:54.43 | Kyusaku | BeeRad: it generally spells trouble if patches can only be installed a certain way. |
05:54.44 | ka6sox-work | and 11hz too. |
05:54.55 | Tman | 11hz huh? oh my |
05:55.33 | Tman | and the frequencies matched the oscillator correct? |
05:55.44 | ka6sox-work | Tman, very close |
05:56.01 | ka6sox-work | can I put direct into the 3 ring input? |
05:56.04 | BeeRad | Kyusaku: So far its working fine. The only thing that I don't like already is that naming pages isn't formatting so well with the Lite Listi Launcher patch because the title of the page is now covering the first app on each page. I would have to shut that off. |
05:56.17 | ka6sox-work | I have a 3 ring connector |
05:56.26 | Tman | ka6sox-work: that's planned but I don't think it would work yet |
05:56.30 | ka6sox-work | Okay |
05:56.38 | ka6sox-work | lemme know when so I can test. |
05:56.48 | Tman | pretty limited feature set still :p |

05:56.55 | Tman | will do. thanks for testing! |
05:56.59 | ka6sox-work | Tman, not a problem |

05:57.16 | ka6sox-work | Tommorrow I'll see if it detects the bad fan...out of 10 fand |
05:57.19 | ka6sox-work | er fans |
05:57.42 | ka6sox-work | Tman, 10ea 10" Fans |
05:57.51 | Tman | cool |
05:58.01 | Kyusaku | eric2k: it's the best place to research patches on the desktop |
05:58.04 | eric2k | 2.http://forums.precentral.net is that the best forum for pre users? Which other major discussion spots are there? IE windows mobile/andriod we have PPCG/XDA. |
05:58.08 | ka6sox-work | has to move 1300CFM of air. |
05:58.18 | Tman | I think 22.05kHz is at the very edge if that's what you need |
05:58.38 | ka6sox-work | Tman, I'm looking for harmonics of 3600 |
05:59.07 | ka6sox-work | 7200, 14400 etc |
05:59.09 | eric2k | On device which is the best method of looking at patchs? Is there a cydia type deal as on iphone? |
05:59.36 | Kyusaku | eric2k: there's a site for people trying to hack the modem on the pre I forget the address though |
05:59.37 | saurik | eric2k: preware |
05:59.49 | Tman | ka6sox-work: ok. would it be beneficial if you could actually dial in specific Hz values? |
06:00.11 | ka6sox-work | if I could put a marker on a specific frequency? yes |
06:00.25 | ka6sox-work | absolutely |
06:00.41 | ka6sox-work | and also change the span. |
06:00.45 | ka6sox-work | (but thats later. |
06:00.45 | Tman | well you can now, just with touch which isn't perfectly accurate for picking a frequency |
06:00.46 | ka6sox-work | ) |
06:00.48 | eric2k | I have read the horrer storys on Palm Pre quality. I am here in canada. Are the batchs we have here abit better? Is there anything i can do besides looking for crack lines on screen/charger port /looking for slider twist/gap between screen closed? |
06:00.54 | ka6sox-work | Tman right |
06:01.03 | ka6sox-work | need box to dial it up or down |
06:01.10 | Tman | what do you mean by span? |
06:01.27 | eric2k | IE: could i use the ## codes to look at manufacture date to get a better idea? would that even help.... IE; after X date they should be okay? |
06:01.38 | ka6sox-work | Tman, right now its 0-22.05khz |
06:01.52 | ka6sox-work | I"d like to see 900 -1100 only D |
06:01.54 | ka6sox-work | :D |
06:02.13 | eric2k | and yeah for reading up forum wise. any suggestions besides precentral? |
06:02.28 | ka6sox-work | Tman, or 0-3.5khz (speech) |
06:02.50 | Tman | you know you can zoom right? 900-1100 is too narrow for what it allows now but zoom and pan should help you with that |
06:03.02 | ka6sox-work | Tman, kewl |
06:03.17 | ka6sox-work | okay I'll play with it tommorrow and report back |
06:03.26 | Tman | k thanks |
06:03.47 | ka6sox-work | those fans are $220 so shotgunning them isn't practical. |
06:04.08 | Tman | hah |
06:04.27 | ka6sox-work | I normally use a stethescope |
06:04.53 | Kyusaku | eric2k: there's a list of key codes let me find them, in regards to forum content what are you looking for |
06:07.53 | eric2k | I just like knowing the best spots to read/where people are. All i can find is the offical Palm forums and PreCentral. for andriod land/windowsmobile/iphone i know the spots. WebOS is a new beast. |
06:08.21 | eric2k | I hate asking questions. easyer to just read. Saw this IRC. Figured instead of wasteing my time you guys would point me in the right direction a lot faster lol. |
06:08.45 | eric2k | and so far you have :) , did not even know about preware lol |
06:08.47 | Kyusaku | eric2k: the PDF attached here http://forums.precentral.net/palm-pre-tips-information-resources/186420-palm-pre-pixi-tips-tricks.html has dial codes on the 5th page |
06:09.06 | Kyusaku | eric2k: the code you probably want is ##786# |
06:09.33 | Kyusaku | eric2k: and the build date should be "WARRANTYDATECODE" |
06:10.36 | Kyusaku | precentral hosts casual users as well as the hardcore hackers who are modifying the phone kernel |
06:10.44 | eric2k | Is there a manufature date which after that point the quality was better? I know Sprint has more of the bad batch then bell got. |
06:11.11 | Kyusaku | nothing definite |
06:11.15 | eric2k | pre is such a steal here in canada now. $150 used in decent condition now. |
06:11.54 | eric2k | Plus 15$ for unlimited data only for pre. Addon to any existing plan. |
06:12.11 | eric2k | bell also lowered no contract price to 299 lol |
06:12.32 | eric2k | So i can see a real rush of people going into pres from canada. Just like the HTC touch before it. |
06:12.46 | BeeRad | Has anybody tried the Show Actual Battery Percent patch yet? Is it really a huge difference? |
06:13.06 | eric2k | I made the famous NFSFAN rom with my friend for the old CDMA touch. Ton of users been asking me about pre. Now with this deal going on. |
06:13.39 | Kyusaku | BeeRad: if it's anything like the old patch not a huge difference |
06:13.51 | BeeRad | Kyusaku: Thanks man. |
06:13.57 | Kyusaku | BeeRad: your phone will never read 100% |
06:15.32 | Kyusaku | eric2k: not much ROM cooking on WebOS partly because Preware and other soutions make customizing the device pretty easily |
06:15.51 | eric2k | Seems like a iphone sort of setup. |
06:16.08 | Kyusaku | plenty of kernel hacking though |
06:16.09 | eric2k | IE:PreWare has the addons Cydia allows for that makes the iphone somewhat bareable. |
06:16.23 | BeeRad | Preware/Homebrew practically make you feel as if you you're the ROM chef using a kitchen. Just make the phone what you want it to be. A lot less headache. |
06:16.36 | eric2k | Andriod, you can add third party sources for edits. The custom bootloaders/firmwarees are just way better though. |
06:16.46 | eric2k | Have a N1/Galaxy |
06:16.53 | Kyusaku | eric2k: I've never had an iPhone so I can't make a comparison |
06:17.50 | saurik | Kyusaku: Cydia is just another package manager, like preware (based on apt/dpkg, instead of ipkg) |
06:17.58 | eric2k | I had a iPhone. Sold it before i switched to CDMA carrier for profit. Just before 3g launch. Although i got my sister a 3g and have continued to play around. MIGHT consider a iphone 4 under contract. I get a hardware upgrade credit every 1.5 years. |
06:18.19 | Kyusaku | eric2k: but preware gives on device access to applications, themes, patches to change the OS functionality, modify the base kernel, etc. |
06:18.41 | eric2k | yeah, very powerful :) |
06:19.01 | eric2k | I cant wait to get a pre. I been holding off for a year now. Prices are so damn cheap now on them used. Plus 15$ data. how can i say no... |

06:23.58 | rwhitby | eric2k: welcome. this channel is where you'll see the best hacking for the pre. webos-internals.org is the best information site, and precentral.net is the best forum site. with those three places, you can't go wrong. |
06:24.37 | BeeRad | Kyusaku: This Launcher setup is actually feeling quite lite on its feet and I haven't found any issues yet. I don't really see the need for Glass Effect at this point as Lite List Launcher almost looks the same. Not quite, but close. |
06:24.58 | rwhitby | eric2k: and there are no custom roms for webOS devices, cause Preware can replace kernels on the fly without needing to reflash the whole device |
06:25.09 | BeeRad | rwhitby: Amen. |
06:26.03 | BeeRad | rwhitby: And I don't have to wait for a new ROMs from chefs for special enhancements. Thats what *I* do with Preware/Homebrew. |
06:29.14 | eric2k | yeah thats not a bad situation. I don't mind it. over in andrid/winmo/bbos ... lol waiting for new custom os's is a pain |
06:29.19 | rwhitby | BeeRad: yeah, we do things in a way which tends to not create PrimaDonna's and allow anyone to recreate anything we do. Quite different from most custom rom scenes. |

06:31.39 | BeeRad | rwhitby: Its a beautiful thing. This community is more of a lifestyle IMO. Android vs. webOS and which is better is strictly personal subjective opinion. I think it comes more down to how do you want things to work? I personally cant stand waiting around for a ROM chef to create a new ROM and all the mess that goes with rooting a device, etc etc. At this point the motto still stands...."it's near impossible to brick a Pre" and |
06:32.15 | eric2k | I wish bell had not been stupid. they released the CMDA pre 2 months before opening HSPA network. |
06:32.26 | eric2k | It was dead on arivval no one gave it a chance. Bell only pushed it for 1 month... |
06:32.43 | eric2k | every rep was saying wait for the iphone. |
06:33.55 | Tman | rwhitby: I gave up on debian btw. Installing ubuntu ;p |
06:34.35 | ka6sox-work | Tman, not even sure squeeze has everything needed. |
06:34.38 | rwhitby | BeeRad: the basic foundational rule that all the information and source code and build instructions to replicate anything on ipkg.preware.org exists in public respositories has a powerful flow-on effect. |

06:41.42 | Tman | BeeRad: are you referring to the extended APIs or more than just that? |
06:42.33 | BeeRad | Tman: Under the hood improvements. |
06:42.54 | eric2k | Is there any site like http://pleasefixtheiphone.com/ for webos? |

06:44.46 | Tman | I read about all of it.. just can't remember it :p |
06:44.59 | Kyusaku | eric2k: lol no. But Palm support is often lending its ear to support and issues on communities like Precentral |

06:50.30 | eric2k | Im just dipping my toes in the pond right now. I been mullling over a Pre since it launched. I have been using windows mobile as my daily driver for years. |
06:50.38 | swisstomcat | morning |
06:50.58 | eric2k | I feel like Andriod is a bit of a let down. Windows Phone 7 will be ages. WebOS. Ive played with it and it leaves me feeling hmm this could be it. |
06:51.33 | swisstomcat | yeah, it's really nice |
06:51.34 | eric2k | WebOS even on the current PRE can standup to almost anything. Couple it with some real hardware :) hmmm i like that idea. |
06:52.15 | BeeRad | rwhitby: the V8 engine should be making its way into webOS soon as well shouldn't it? |
06:52.28 | rwhitby | BeeRad: webOS has had v8 for ever |
06:52.37 | Kyusaku | lol |
06:52.48 | BeeRad | rwhitby: pardon me....sorry I mean the newest improvements..... |
06:52.54 | Kyusaku | yeah v8 has been there since launch |
06:52.55 | eric2k | anyone else come from Windows Mobile/Andriod to webos/pre? |
06:53.17 | Kyusaku | I came from WinMo |
06:53.23 | Kyusaku | 6.1 |
06:53.28 | rwhitby | eric2k: I used to run android-internals.org, but gave it up due to lack of interest |
06:53.29 | Kyusaku | on a treo |
06:53.31 | BeeRad | rwhitby: Didnt Google just improve the heck out of the V8 engine? |
06:53.53 | swisstomcat | i came from a treo too |
06:54.09 | eric2k | Andriod is a huge disappointment. I do not get why blogs give it so much credit. |
06:54.49 | Kyusaku | Android has done well with API access |
06:55.28 | eric2k | Only 2.2 has opened things up. I talk with Betaboy of coreplayer team a fair bit. Also a buddie off team working on kinoma. |
06:55.44 | eric2k | Trying to get coreplayer ported and working properly has been fun. Almost there now for coreplayer. |
06:56.53 | eric2k | as for Andriod devices. In canada.... Dream/Magic/EVE/Galaxy/hero have all be lack luster devices. Low ram/old cpu. GPUs re lackluster. Then the new moto triplets suck even more. |
06:57.15 | eric2k | DROID is the only good canadian device and it is still not rooted. |
06:57.54 | eric2k | buying an Nexus one is not worth the cost at like 700$ after shipping in canada. |
06:58.04 | rwhitby | I personally don't bother trying to root a device on which the manufacturer is hostile/ |
06:59.35 | rwhitby | that game is for the prima donna's, not those who want to set up stable complementary avenues for deeper development that the manufacturer doesn't have to send lawyers against |
07:00.12 | BeeRad | rwhitby: *coughcoughHTCcoughcough* |
07:00.46 | eric2k | Sorta annoying waiting and hopeing motorola will update a device with andriod 1.5 on it. Or people with droids drooling over 2.2 and waiting till maybe september for it. |
07:02.41 | eric2k | I feel like palm could do so well in canada atleast. Launch a HSPA device on all 3 networks here. 8-11mm well built slate with 4â0 inch screen with decent resolution and Same processor as Galaxy S or Droid X or even combo on N8 or n9. throw a 8MP camera/xenon flash. |
07:03.30 | eric2k | Price it at 150$ on a 3 year contract here in canada. People would consider it over a iphone at 199 |

07:22.21 | swisstomcat | try this html5 game: http://jsway.se/m/ |
07:22.57 | BeeRad | The slider alone makes me want to move to the Pixi+ full time. |
07:24.19 | BeeRad | I swear, if the Pixi had a different name...more people would have them. Im serious. |
07:24.32 | eric2k | LoL Palm has made so many mistakes its not funny |
07:24.43 | eric2k | but a lot of good on other hand |
07:24.49 | eric2k | the mistakes they make should not be mistakes |
07:24.52 | eric2k | it boggles my mind |
07:25.00 | BeeRad | It could be a 1ghz, 512 RAM 8MP cam monster and because of the name alone....people wouldnt buy it. Just sayin. |
07:25.11 | rwhitby | bbl |
07:25.15 | ka6sox-work | BeeRad, I LOVE my Pixi and Pixi Plus...(although I'll never have my hands on the Pixi again....wife has it now) |
07:25.54 | BeeRad | ka6sox-work: I know, we talked about that the other night. Did you finally get the one squared away and running? |
07:26.27 | eric2k | that games sweet |
07:26.27 | bhuey | Does the developer of the message plugin patch lurk here ? |
07:26.48 | ka6sox-work | BeeRad, I got another battery |
07:26.57 | ka6sox-work | from Sprint |
07:27.12 | ka6sox-work | and put it on my plan...so she is happy now. |
07:27.35 | BeeRad | ka6sox-work: Right, I remember that was the issue, but weren't you still find things under the hood that were ill? |
07:27.55 | eric2k | swiss |
07:27.59 | eric2k | did you make that orb game? |
07:29.31 | ka6sox-work | BeeRad, not really...bad Sim but Sprint fixed that |
07:29.57 | ka6sox-work | they were just happy to have it on contract. |
07:32.20 | Tman | my workspace has 20 windows open over two screens.. and that's just my webos space |
07:33.08 | Tman | things are getting out of hand :p |
07:35.29 | jhojho | man araxis merge is crazy expensive |
07:35.45 | jhojho | all I wanted was a nice diff tool. getting old. |
07:38.39 | swisstomcat | eric2k: no, not my game |
07:39.15 | eric2k | how do you guys always message like that? im on the webchat.freenode.net |
07:39.22 | eric2k | geussing you guys are on MIRC? or something |
07:39.31 | ka6sox-work | jhojho, http://palm.cdnetworks.net/opensource/1.4.1.1/linuxkernel-2.6.24-patch(pixi).gz |
07:39.40 | Tman | x-chat for me |
07:39.42 | ka6sox-work | thats where the defconfig for the pixi is :D |
07:40.07 | ka6sox-work | jhojho, second .config (first one is pre, second is pixi) |
07:40.44 | jhojho | gak |
07:40.49 | ka6sox-work | its not that bad. |
07:40.53 | jhojho | <PROTECTED> |
07:41.05 | ka6sox-work | the kernel is there too! |
07:41.10 | ka6sox-work | jas...lemme get that one too. |
07:41.16 | ka6sox-work | (I just read the patch |
07:41.17 | ka6sox-work | ) |
07:41.23 | eric2k | random question did they add auto correct to webos when typeing? |
07:42.11 | ka6sox-work | dropbox crashed FF |
07:42.40 | ka6sox-work | the link is @ opensource.palm.com |
07:42.49 | jhojho | yeah |
07:42.55 | jhojho | I know |
07:43.09 | jhojho | i just figured it was easier to copy it off a pixi |
07:44.04 | ka6sox-work | jas...its the chuck config |
07:44.14 | ka6sox-work | its in /boot |
07:44.30 | ka6sox-work | ugh... |

08:12.06 | jhojho | i'll see about flipping on all the bits for warthog next. all governors, io sched, etc. |
08:12.21 | ka6sox-work | got config? |
08:12.49 | ka6sox-work | that should be the warthog one. |
08:12.55 | ka6sox-work | its what I'm running currently |
08:13.02 | ka6sox-work | hasn't broken. |
08:13.07 | ka6sox-work | *yet* :D |
08:13.26 | jhojho | oh it's not the stock config? |
08:13.31 | jhojho | oh well. it's a start |
08:13.53 | ka6sox-work | um...you wanted me to test warthog...so thats whats on there:D |
08:14.03 | jhojho | no worries |
08:14.05 | jhojho | that's fine |
08:14.23 | ka6sox-work | just tear apart the pixi/pixi + ipk...its all there> |
08:15.19 | jhojho | i just put various variants of ttcp/httperf under the net dir in dropbox |
08:15.36 | eric2k | K |
08:15.39 | ka6sox-work | warthog is running in both of my machines |
08:15.45 | jhojho | the kin looks like someone took a pre and squashed it vertically |
08:15.56 | eric2k | selling galaxy for 250 and omnia II for 280. Getting a PRE for 150. Woot. im excited. |
08:16.26 | ka6sox-work | I have an omnia II...cost me $25000 |
08:16.49 | eric2k | I got my Omnia II for 150CAD |
08:16.52 | eric2k | Wicked deal |
08:17.09 | eric2k | I might as well make some money. |
08:17.14 | eric2k | Still got my touch pro for windows mobile needs. |
08:17.19 | ka6sox-work | ya, but I'll bet yours doesn't make Country Music sound AWESOME :D |
08:17.38 | eric2k | Which OS do you like better |
08:17.46 | eric2k | WindowsMobile or WebOS |
08:17.54 | eric2k | Windows Mobile 6.5.5 is not bad. |
08:17.58 | ka6sox-work | you have to ask in this channel? |
08:18.07 | eric2k | Well you said you had an omnia :P |
08:18.33 | ka6sox-work | yes, its an audio processor/stereo generator... |
08:18.40 | eric2k | O :P |
08:18.46 | eric2k | Im talking about a samsung omnia II :P |
08:18.49 | eric2k | a mobile phone |
08:19.05 | ka6sox-work | but I've played with wm and it barely passes muster as an OS. |
08:19.33 | ka6sox-work | looks more like a loose collection of parts all going in the same direction.(mostly) |
08:20.07 | eric2k | LoL have you tried it on a modern device like a TP2/HD2 ETC? |
08:20.12 | eric2k | or a o2 |
08:20.23 | ka6sox-work | no, I gave it up for Lent...never went back. |
08:20.47 | ka6sox-work | I switched to a crackberry ATP |
08:21.18 | eric2k | 6.5.5 is really good, other then VS iphone/Andriod 2.2/Pre on browser.... opera 10/9.7 cant really hold much to webkit |
08:21.29 | eric2k | it is a really powerful platform |
08:21.46 | eric2k | webos looks like the new windows mobile for me though :P |
08:22.03 | eric2k | With windows 7 being iphone type gayness for atleast a year till it is all hacked up |
08:22.13 | ka6sox-work | I'm not much on apps...but comparing base os's hands down webos is much better. |
08:23.03 | swisstomcat | erik2k: you probably use HTC sense on top of WM |
08:23.19 | ka6sox-work | okay gotta get sleep...nn |
08:23.32 | eric2k | to be honest i prefer Microsoft's Titanium UI. |
08:23.57 | swisstomcat | night ka6sox |
08:24.02 | eric2k | Sense +CHT 1.8.5 is really neat though. |
08:24.12 | eric2k | Night ka6sox |
08:24.47 | eric2k | which is the best extended battery for cost for pre? |
08:24.49 | eric2k | cdma |
08:24.56 | swisstomcat | i use the 1400 |
08:25.08 | swisstomcat | mugen |
08:26.10 | eric2k | everyone tells me who got a pre |
08:26.23 | eric2k | IT IS GREAT, but get an extended bat 100%. |
08:26.35 | eric2k | that and everyone says consider the 800mhz overclock |
08:26.45 | eric2k | I figure thats not a bright idea if the battery is already so crap lol |
08:26.52 | eric2k | but if its a must have tweak... |
08:27.09 | eric2k | sorta like my Galaxy. It runs like POS without 700mhz overclock. |
08:28.31 | eric2k | anyone here know much about NDK for webs? |
08:28.40 | eric2k | 2.2 finally added NDK for andriod |
08:31.47 | rwhitby | eric2k: use screenstate 500/800 - 500 when screen is off, 800 when screen is on. |
08:32.07 | rwhitby | native dev is PDK for webOS from Palm, or WIDK from us |
08:32.42 | rwhitby | eric2k: what development host OS do you use? |
08:32.50 | eric2k | The Android NDK is different from the Palm SDK - NDK can only be used for number crunching. Front end still has to be implemented in Java. So no "recompile, deploy" as in the Palm SDK. |
08:33.16 | eric2k | I have not looked at webos in abit. reading up right now |
08:33.30 | rwhitby | eric2k: best thing to do is watch the developer day videos |
08:33.32 | eric2k | last i knew the proper native stuff was private |
08:34.10 | rwhitby | finally found the Govnah bug which is stopping profiles with governor-specific parameters from being recognised |
08:41.27 | eric2k | ooo this keynote is nice |
08:42.06 | bhuey | yeah, cna't wait until db8 is implementd |
08:42.16 | bhuey | hopefully that'll make think much faster under webos |
08:42.34 | bhuey | think=things |
08:45.15 | rwhitby | adds sticky compcache to govnah ... |
08:48.58 | jhojho | can anyone confirm that the pixi build uses arch/arm/configs/msm7x25_defconfig? |
08:51.28 | rwhitby | jhojho: it does not. |
08:51.35 | rwhitby | it uses chuck_defconfig |
08:51.48 | jhojho | that was my next guess |
08:51.49 | jhojho | ths |
08:51.51 | jhojho | thx |
08:53.06 | eric2k | do you guys think forthcoming webos releases will make use of GPU for menus and so on? so its all snappy like the current 800mhz patch |
08:53.32 | rwhitby | jhojho: are you "dunno" in git ? |
08:53.43 | jhojho | heh |
08:53.46 | jhojho | yeah |
08:53.52 | jhojho | I didnt config it on mason |
08:53.56 | jhojho | that's what it default to |
08:54.05 | jhojho | i fixed it today after i noticed |
08:54.19 | jhojho | I should have left it as dunno =) |

08:58.40 | rwhitby | Both working correctly on Pre and Pixi. |
08:58.57 | swisstomcat | and then i should take another look at the visual design of the governor page |
08:59.14 | swisstomcat | see if i can split off the compcache part |
08:59.32 | rwhitby | swisstomcat: I'd even like three parts. generic, governor-specific, and compcache |
09:00.27 | swisstomcat | just have to crack how oil did that page :) |
09:01.07 | jhojho | yeah and pls get ready to be able to set IO sched and TCP congest algo =) |
09:01.30 | swisstomcat | that would be another section |

16:12.23 | BeeRad_ | I'm at 128MB. |
16:12.25 | uNiXpSyChO | also F102 *only* uses 500/800 screenstate. it will not go lower |
16:12.41 | uNiXpSyChO | BeeRad_: you can change it after, but on boot it will be 20MB |
16:12.59 | uNiXpSyChO | i think new govnah and F102A build will cooperate more |
16:13.07 | Gollyzila | So compcache is not togglable for 102A? |
16:13.46 | uNiXpSyChO | it is. if you reboot the settings will default back to 20MB |
16:14.05 | uNiXpSyChO | new versions will work better. |
16:14.20 | BeeRad_ | I chose 128. |
16:14.33 | Gollyzila | Oh alright. So the 20240 memlimit is just a bug? |
16:14.40 | uNiXpSyChO | but F102 kernels are *well* documented to be barebones and no one should have expected parameter changes from it. |
16:14.55 | uNiXpSyChO | Gollyzila: absolutely NOT a bug |
16:15.23 | Gollyzila | What does 20240 mean then? Is it the memlimit? |

16:15.37 | uNiXpSyChO | yes |
16:16.00 | Gollyzila | 20240= default to 20MB |
16:16.02 | Gollyzila | ? |
16:16.19 | uNiXpSyChO | are you puling hairs? |
16:16.29 | BeeRad_ | I'm observing Govnah in v.0.4.9 not showing anything below 500Mhz in screenstate even though 125 and 250 may be selected. This is watching the graph, not in the CL. |
16:17.40 | BeeRad_ | Again. I know this was fixed back in 0.4.6 I believe? I forget. |
16:17.44 | Gollyzila | uNiXpSyChO: I'm sorry if frustrating you. I just don't understand why it is always switching to 20240 even though the highest option is 128MB. |
16:17.45 | uNiXpSyChO | BeeRad_: I see the graph dip with 0.4.9. |

16:18.22 | BeeRad_ | uNiXpSyChO: Whats your screenstate set to? |
16:18.53 | vibol | Gollyzila: Use UberKernel in testing if you want to modify compcache. |
16:19.01 | uNiXpSyChO | Gollyzila: i just told you. and it is common knowledge that F102 kernels are statically set so you dont need govnah or anything to control it. if you want to change the memlimit then you should use F104A or UberKernel. |
16:19.26 | uNiXpSyChO | BeeRad_: 1005/250 |
16:20.20 | vibol | uNiXpSyChO: where's the changelog for f104a? |
16:20.20 | Gollyzila | Everyone: I don't want to change the memlimit. I was just looking for an explanation for 20240 and I have. Thanks uNiXpSyChO. |
16:21.09 | BeeRad_ | uNiXpSyChO: Hmmm. Maybe a clean reinstall of Govnah is in order? |
16:21.26 | Gollyzila | There is no wiki explaining compcache memlimit in govnah, right? |
16:21.53 | uNiXpSyChO | Gollyzila: i could have sworn you mentioned change compcache number. maybe i misunderstood. |
16:22.40 | uNiXpSyChO | Gollyzila: there is no wiki since it is still in testing and it was understood that most people knew what that param was. |
16:23.10 | Gollyzila | uNiXpSyChO: Yes I did. But I wasn't realizing I couldn't change the memlimit. |
16:23.11 | uNiXpSyChO | BeeRad_: dunno? you dont see the graph dip when screen is off? |
16:24.56 | uNiXpSyChO | http://lmgtfy.com/?q=compcache |
16:25.04 | BeeRad_ | uNiXpSyChO: Yes, I do....but if you have the screen dimmed enough (i.e. 10% or so) you can actually observe the the dip and the numbers that go with it when the screen dims right before shutting off. I'm sure you know about this. |
16:25.35 | Gollyzila | uNiXpSyChO: I just read a post rwhitby posted explaining about free memory and swap and total memory. And I'm searching everywhere as to where the compcache memlimit fits into it. I know compcache compress free memory so it can be used instead of the slow memory,but what I'd like to know is for what type of memory is compcache memlimit referring to. |
16:26.02 | BeeRad_ | uNiXpSyChO: So when I do this with a SS setting of 250/800, when the screen dims before shutting off....it's only dipping to 500Mhz, not 250 as it should. Again, this is just what the graph and numbers are showing. I don't know yet what the CL would say. |
16:26.25 | uNiXpSyChO | RAM. memlimit param tells the driver to *only* use XXX amount of RAM for its compressed pages. |
16:27.08 | uNiXpSyChO | BeeRad_: you using the latest Uber? |
16:27.12 | BeeRad_ | uNiXpSyChO: I wouldn't say this is an "issue" or a "bug", but I've been observing this ever since SS was released. Then I noticed that rwhitby released a Govnah that "fixed" this issue. Then it came back. |
16:27.18 | BeeRad_ | uNiXpSyChO: Yes sir. |
16:28.04 | uNiXpSyChO | BeeRad_: unfortunately if the screen is dimmed way too low it will conflict with TS detection code. the magic nuber is like 20% or something. |
16:28.11 | Gollyzila | uNiXpSyChO: Thank you!!! |
16:28.18 | uNiXpSyChO | but i dont know why you see 500 when set at 250 |
16:28.35 | BeeRad_ | UK v1.4.1-46 and Govnah v.0.4.9 |
16:29.31 | Gollyzila | Actually my brigtness is at 10% and my Pre is running at a maximum of 800MHz |
16:30.58 | uNiXpSyChO | mine too. but some users have apps installed that make the brightness almost go to 0. |
16:31.38 | BeeRad_ | Yeah, with the screen at 10% it show 800Mhz just fine. It show the SS change at the proper times. The only odd thing I've seen is not reporting the screen off setting properly. Again, not complaining. Doesn't really matter to me. Some other people may complain to no end if they see it though. haha |
16:31.46 | uNiXpSyChO | previous versions of Uber SS version did not allow scaling below 500MHz... the newet Uber does. |

16:32.36 | Gollyzila | Mode Switcher does that. I see my phone dip to 500MHz when MS makes my brightness go down to 0 (which isn't true 0. I've seen my screen on without a backlight right after unlocking it, but the backlight then quickly turns on) |
16:33.00 | uNiXpSyChO | yeah, apps like that can confuse screenstate |
16:34.12 | sk4jc | What feed do these new kernels appear in? |
16:34.27 | sk4jc | i have the testing feed but is there an alpha feed as well? |
16:34.38 | Gollyzila | Wow, I just found uNiXpSyChO 's post explaining the memlimit. |
16:34.48 | uNiXpSyChO | Gollyzila: what rwhitby was referring to slow memory was "disk". RAM is faster then any disk, even flash disk. |
16:35.05 | Gollyzila | sk4jc: There are separate testing feeds for apps and kernels |
16:36.19 | sk4jc | what is the kernel feed? |
16:36.27 | Gollyzila | Flash disk is only used when free RAM and swap are used to full capacity? |
16:38.03 | Gollyzila | The memory/swap graph in govnah is showing how much RAM is being used or what is left? |
16:38.21 | uNiXpSyChO | Gollyzila: sort-of. when the compressed RAM bucket (memlimit) is full then compcache uses the backing-store swap which is usually disk of somekind. the OS only sees swap, it knows nothing of compress pages, the compcache driver handles the hard work and shuffling of pages. |
16:38.40 | Gollyzila | sk4jc: are you asking for the Url? |
16:40.15 | Gollyzila | uNiXpSyChO: instead of using another disk, can't compcache use the free RAM? Or is that not optimal usage? |
16:40.27 | sk4jc | yes, or the wiki page that might contain it |
16:41.06 | uNiXpSyChO | Gollyzila: not really optimal. then you'll have a blackhole :-) |
16:41.17 | uNiXpSyChO | hence why there is a memlimit param |
16:41.47 | Gollyzila | sk4jc: Are you looking for the testing or public feed? If you want the testing feed,you need to find it yourself. It's a sort of "test" to see if you're ready to be an alpha tester. |
16:42.04 | Gollyzila | Cool |
16:42.34 | uNiXpSyChO | Gollyzila: the govnah graph shows compcache compressed pages+swap backing-store. |
16:42.45 | sk4jc | I see, well i found the testing feed before so I'm sure I can find this one. Just lazy i guess. |
16:44.36 | sk4jc | ok, found it. |
16:45.14 | Gollyzila | uNiXpSyChO: Okay. So compcache memlimit is set to 20MB. And govnah shows memory/swap as 229/54. Is that looking good? I have 5 cards open right now. |

16:57.35 | Gollyzila | So that'll just overload the RAM and crash my Pre? |
16:57.43 | uNiXpSyChO | BeeRad_: probably. i was sleeping while rwhitby was working :-) |

16:59.49 | Gollyzila | Woah. I've only gone to 20 cards, including 2 games. I stopped cause I got bored and my Pre was sooooo slow to open the launcher and switch the pages. |
16:59.56 | BeeRad_ | uNiXpSyChO: Must have been after the UK release. And here I was complaining that it was Govnahs fault. *facepalm* I did a reset after the UK update because it recommends it. This second reset got it to show properly. |

19:23.54 | Nettwerk | But better is set to default if I want to play games? (To 500-600Mhz)? |

19:26.30 | timothy1jones | I am in the search for SIP client for Palm Pre. Anyone know if there is such a thing yet? I googled some and only found one which is still work in progress |
19:28.02 | gollyzila|comp | Nettwerk: I dont really understand what you're asking but if you set the maximum frequency to 800MHz, your entire device will run much faster and smoother than at 600MHz |
19:29.09 | timothy1jones | and will heat up faster :) |
19:29.34 | Nettwerk | gollyzila|comp I mean can I use 800Mhz speed if I want play games? |
19:29.49 | gollyzila|comp | Yes |

20:06.27 | sk4jc | when you installed the sdk, it should have appended the bin directory for you |
20:06.54 | Tman | http://pastebin.com/nUgsPxDv what the heck? |
20:09.17 | gollyzila|comp | appended the bin directory to what? I know what append means, but I'm not sure what it means how you are using the word |

20:10.11 | sk4jc | it contains the locations to executables |

20:11.37 | gollyzila|comp | like adding essay.docx to the path? |
20:12.03 | sk4jc | docx is a file type |
20:12.08 | sk4jc | so that wouldnt help |
20:12.19 | gollyzila|comp | then program.exe |

20:12.38 | Tman | (found the fix... /bin/sh has to point to bash) |
20:12.41 | sk4jc | yes, so you could call that from any location |
20:12.48 | gollyzila|comp | okay |
20:13.02 | sk4jc | but you want to only include the directory |
20:13.11 | sk4jc | not the actual batch file |
20:13.15 | gollyzila|comp | okay |
20:13.45 | sk4jc | so for your java example, you add the location to java so another script can reference it where ever it happens to be called |
20:15.01 | gollyzila|comp | so i have to find the location of java? |
20:15.06 | sk4jc | yes |

20:16.39 | gollyzila|comp | sk4jc: nope. The Path Variable value is a path to a video editing program. So I'm guessing it didnt either |

21:41.36 | HattCzech_work | oh, cool |
21:41.46 | Tman | bhuey: this one has been stable for me, but you should always keep a backup of your data anytime you're using a testing kernel |
21:42.03 | Tman | bhuey: it's google projects, they just host open source projects that other people do |
21:42.09 | Tman | er google code* |
21:43.41 | bhuey | Tman: thanks loading now |
21:44.21 | No1everdoes | I'm stupid the 1.4.1-6 is the official webos kernel |
21:44.23 | bhuey | Tman: do i need to configure my swap or is it just automatic ? |
21:44.32 | Tman | it's automatic |
21:44.36 | No1everdoes | The 1.4.1-21 is the homebrew kernal |

21:46.45 | uNiXpSyChO | oh no, not again.... |

21:50.32 | Tman | okay, I haven't checked recently. maybe the testing version and the stable version are the same now? |
21:50.43 | bhuey | so install -46 ? |
21:51.09 | No1everdoes | Cool but it's google |
21:51.19 | Tman | bhuey: You seem to know what you're doing so go for it :p |
21:51.58 | bhuey | to get decent compression, they need to be able to scan large blocks of data |
21:52.02 | bhuey | or larger blocks of data |
21:52.08 | bhuey | like about 64k or somethign like that |
21:52.31 | bhuey | otherwise compression algorithms don't work that well |
21:53.29 | bhuey | it's shit that Palm hasn't released a new device with new hardware on Sprint but this is the second best thing to that |
21:53.36 | Tman | hmm, you should talk to whoever was working on compcache. I think uNiXpSyChO |
21:53.52 | bhuey | also, I've noticed cleawrly that the more messenger message I have sitting around the slower the device gets |
21:54.02 | bhuey | I deleted a bnch of them and it sped things up a lot |
21:54.16 | bhuey | I'm sure it's a cache db issue of some sort |
21:54.59 | bhuey | having a better storage strategy for these messages would be a better solution than wht they have now |
21:55.11 | bhuey | I'm presumming that they store it in a db |
21:55.44 | *** join/#webos-internals jlund (~jlund@67.136.119.86) |
21:55.46 | Tman | yeah they use a relational database for it. don't remember which |
21:55.58 | bhuey | sql of some sort |
21:56.08 | bhuey | file systems problems like this are difficult because of stuff like deletion |
21:56.22 | jlund | What is the difference between Terminal and Terminus? I just want something simple that will allow me to SSH into remote servers and troubleshoot if I am away from my desktop/laptop. |
21:57.49 | Mousey | Terminus doesn't have a | key |
21:57.51 | Mousey | that's the difference |
21:58.00 | Mousey | also, Terminus WAY EASIER to read at small font sizes |
21:58.14 | Mousey | i'm yet to get Terminal to get my screen margins correctly once |
21:58.37 | *** join/#webos-internals roxfan (dunno@91.180.172.160) |
21:58.43 | Mousey | also Terminus doesn't use the number keys as arrow keys |
21:58.51 | Mousey | which is highly useful for upscrolling |
21:59.00 | jlund | I just don't understand why both exist if they do the same thing. How do you make a "|" in Terminus? |

21:59.49 | Mousey | why terminus can't have Terminal's input scheme is beyond me, it'd be the perfect terminal for pre |
22:00.05 | jlund | Mousey: Sounds like Terminal is the way to go if you need arrow keys and pipes (which for any serious remote work, you do). Thanks! |

22:30.40 | bhuey | or is there a package that allows me to set the clock speed to normal ? |
22:33.03 | Tman | bhuey: yes you need to install Govnah from Preware also |
