For some reason we need to clarify thousand+1 things (mainly legal)
before we can offer such service. I had an idea back in December that
maybe maemo could finally co-operate with OpenEmbedded and see if we
could get the extras packages from their build system. It should be
technically possible. I promised to send a mail to Koen and Florian about this
"trial", but never got there yet. Perhaps this could kick off the
discussion here, on the maemo dev list.


I agree. The more maemo can support the developers to
create applications that can work on different devices/configurations
the better.
I would say that maemo is responsible of providing a build system that
supports it's hardware configurations and software restrictions.
So I think maemo should provide an elegant solution/SDK for building apps that
will or run on the different devices or create different apps.The
proposed SDK with 4  targets is really a short term solution as it
already only will support the people who upgraded to the latesed 770
release, perhaps it can be extended with some scripts to automate the
work.I think Levi's idea resembles the  gentoo's portage a lot, where
the n800 branch would have a few more "flags" on.

At first I was thinking that nokia should also provide the service but
more important actually
is to have a system in place where developers are helped in developing
the apps. What would be the implications if it where not maemo who
hosted this service?
If the same build system is used would it be a matter of configuration
to let others (read nokia or other developers) build the binaries for
the different packages so that we have an extras repository with code
of the applictions available?
Would that also work for closed source apps?
Would it be possible for nokia to develop there new "secret sexy" devices?

by the time you do all this you'll wonder why you're not using wifi or
bluetooth to send commands. It would be easier to set up a pc that will
relay commands over IR or a media pc that will just act on them.


Phillips RC9800i has both IR and 802.11g. I got the IR support working
in half an hour and I still haven't gotten around to building a
computer to relay IR signals over 11g.

My media server is located in the basement. I use a UPNP AV player
like the DSM-520 to play the media. There is no general purpose PC
located near the TV. This set up works well to support playing media
from TV's in four different rooms.

The other trouble with using radio is the you have to tell the remote
which room it is in. IR doesn't travel between rooms. If you carry an
IR remote to another room, it won't still control the TV in the first
room.

Is it no power at all, or just not very much power? With no power you
can't even use a USB memory dongle. Hard disks take way more power
than a USB port can provide. IR transmitter doesn't need much power,
the one I am using now says it needs 100mA. And that's a peak value.



It would be interesting if the N800 has a "powered" USB hostmode...

You can get IrDA versions everywhere.
http://www.buyextras.com/irdaadapters.html?gclid=CNDDxsHW1IkCFRFBgQodfF4i4Q
But these are in the wrong frequency band for a remote control.

The software is more interesting than the hardware. For example you
could extract program guides from tv.yahoo.com. The Philips device has
an activity based UI. You click on watch DVD and it turns on the TV,
DVD and stereo and then sets everything to the right inputs.

This would make a good add-on product if Nokia is interested.

Actually, one package may work fine.  Mistral packages will work in
scirocco, and many mistral packages will also work on bora.  If there is
no reason to build using the maemo 3.0 SDK, it probably just makes sense
to build using the 2.0 SDK and upload the same package to the mistral,
scirocco, and bora repositories.  Actually, it seems that we probably
don't need a scirocco repository, as I think all mistral packages will
work on scirocco (although the reverse isn't necessarily the case as a
result of some new APIs in scirocco, but I doubt that they are being used
very much).

I'm personally fine with this as a temporary solution.  It would be nice
if N800 users had a bora garage repository option as soon as possible,
since there are quite a few garage projects.  Also, the existence of a new
bora garage repository may encourage developers to ensure that their
packages work on 3.0 (a little difficult without an N800, but at least the
package can be tested in the SDK environment... I think).


I agree with you, but I am not really a fun of such temporary and
improper solutions (I guess nobody really is). Opening an extras queue
to scirocco and one for bora does not require any special deals and
decisions from our side. We could -in theory- go ahead with this right
now. However I would like to hear the opinion of my fellow Nokia
colleagues and let them comment on the topic (right now it is 3AM
there in Helsinki). Let's wait 24 hours at least before we go on with
this, OK?


On a separate note, regarding the new application catalog at
test.maemo.org, I see that it is possible to indicate which OS versions an
application supports.  However, there is only one download option, even if
the application is supported on both IT2006 and IT2007.  A single download
option may not be enough for some applications.


True, but you can add the same application 3 times with 3 different
versions (or even with the same version, if you wish). The only
limitation at the moment is that you __must use__ a different Project
ID (unix name) for all 3 entries, as described in the User Manual.

Btw. many thanks for checking the new catalog ;)

[maemo-developers] Using the N770/N800 as a remote control.

2007-01-09 Thread Jon Smirl

Did a SIR transmitter make in into the N800? I have a Phillips RC9800i
remote control and I would like to replace it with my N770 or a N800.
http://www.hometheatermag.com/accessories/0406philips/

I've been looking around for a IR transmitter/receiver in the form of
a USB dongle and can't find one. You need a receiver in addition to
the transmitter so that you can train the remote codes.

It only costs a couple of dollars to build a remote compatible IR
transmit/receiver USB dongle. Adding this capability would be very
useful given the way I use my N770.

I think it is really important not to split up the OS for the different

annoying! E.g. if there will be no more support for the 770, a lot of

Well, perhaps we can have a temporary solution for the time being and
discussion on a more permanent solution for the future.  A temporary
solution could probably just entail adding a new directory to the existing
extras repository for bora.  I'm not sure about the upload process and
distinguishing bora packages from mistral packages, but I imagine that
something can be worked out.


The only temp solution I can imagine is to open other upload queues
(like you, Aaron said) where you could upload scirocco and bora
versions. So there will be one upload queue for each maemo release.
This could be done fairly quickly, though people who uploaded to
mistral should change their dput configurations, because the mistral
queue will also change.

2007-01-09 Thread Juan Diego Gutiérrez Gallardo

Hello, I'm Juan Diego Gutiérrez Gallardo and live in Spain.

I read Monologue's RSS quite often and, last Monday, I read this post from MDK:

http://www.mdk.org.pl/articles/2007/01/08/next-step-moon

I'm a software developer, book writer and book translator:

You can find the web page of Anaya Multimedia here:

http://www.anayamultimedia.com/

My books are here:
http://www.anayamultimedia.com/cgigeneral/busquedas.pl?id_autor=125615&id_sello_editorial_web=23&id_funcion=44&origen=3

Some of them are in Amazon:

I've translated books about CSS, network security and Internet privacy
-- also about PowerPoint and Windows 95.

I've been working during five years -- and counting! -- as IT Manager
for a company where all the software used was previously from
Microsoft. After this years, the main servers of the company are Linux
boxes and we're starting the development of new Web applications based
on LAMP.

My collaborations, up to now, are basically focused on providing
translations into Spanish for those projects that still doesn't have
one. Some examples:

- TortoiseCVS: http://tortoisecvs.org/lang.shtml
- Drupal's captcha:
http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/drupal/contributions/modules/captcha/po/es.po?rev=1.1&view=markup
- Drupal's Node (key)words:
http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/drupal/contributions/modules/nodewords/po/?only_with_tag=DRUPAL-4-7
- Drupal's textimage:
http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/drupal/contributions/modules/textimage/po/

The next step would be making some programming contributions to the
open source community. I was thinking about developing something for
the Treo 750v but I rather prefer to get one N800 and contribute to
it.

I also have to present a project in order to finish my Computer
Science studies. Maybe I could present something related with the
N800, that could be quite interesting.

I think that's all. Thanks for your time.

Best regards,

As you may recall, I was considering this back in August/September.  
I tried a few things, and reported some of my findings to this list.  
The code for all that is still available here:

It is my impression that this might be the most attractive option.   
I noticed that TCPMP which seems to be the most performant player for
the ARM uses this approach, and it is available under GPL, so it may
be possible to adapt some of its code.

In the long run, I would hope that integrating TCPMP scaling code into
libswscale of the ffmpeg project might be the most elegant approach,
since that seems to be the most performant/featureful/widel adopted
open-source scaling code (but not yet on ARM).   For mplayer, it works
out of the box, since libswcale actually originated from mplayer, and
only recently migrated to ffmpeg.

I tried direct rendering in the above mentioned experimentation.  I
never got it to work exactly correctly, i.e. I could get images
fragments on the screen, but they were not the whole image, and never
in exactly the correct screen position.   I suspected this was tied to
the baroque memory addressing constraints of the DSP (e.g. 16bit data
item limitations).   I tried very hard to work around them but was not
successful.

I think the benefits of direct rendering may be a false temptation on
the DSP anyway.My impression was that the DSP access to
framebuffer memory slowed down the scaling algorithm tremendously, so
it was actually faster to scale into DSP local memory, and then do a
fast bulk copy to the FB, or to SDRAM on the ARM side.Plus you
have all the AV synchronization headaches.

I think these gains pale compared to the gain from just using the fb
in YUV mode, and doing all the video stuff on the ARM side.
Hence, option 1 seems to sound very attractive.

I doubt 800x480.   The added quality benefit over 400x240 with pixel
doubling in the fb is probably way to marginal to justify the
effort.   The DSP hardware doesn't seem to have any meaningful support
for general scaling (beyond doubling).

I seem to have the rough impression from inspecting X code that ARM
side does the final update (copy) to fb memory.  I'm not 100% sure on
that right now though.

Well, perhaps we can have a temporary solution for the time being and
discussion on a more permanent solution for the future.  A temporary
solution could probably just entail adding a new directory to the existing
extras repository for bora.  I'm not sure about the upload process and
distinguishing bora packages from mistral packages, but I imagine that
something can be worked out.

Seconded.  It would also give a good way to branch apps that have to
be code-nonidentical for the two releases (e.g. xv vs xsp pixel

I wish I know when we can offer extras for receiving your apps for
bora. Some of us at nokia had an idea to setup a automated build

For some reason we need to clarify thousand+1 things (mainly legal)

So we actually may see maintenance firmware updates (i.e. fixed bugs)

 People have been using that word -Support- very freely when talking
about OS2006.  When you have support from a vendor that generally
includes bug fixes and upgrades, otherwise it doesn't mean much.
There's been word of a Maemo 2.2, but what's the point if it's only
for developers?  There are still so many basic problems with OS2006
and it's irresponsible to refuse to help both the new users and early
adopters now.  How do you regain that trust that's implicit in
building a community?  The old platform gets a sack lunch and a life
raft while the new one sails off into the distance.  That's one of the
reasons I believe Ari Jaaksi shut the door so firmly on any hope of
upgrades-- no chance of reconsideration.  You get a smile, "Better
luck next time!", and the requisite shove.

Yes, but the question is not only about hacking, it is about end users.
Can end users somehow get such system (not called 2007) so developers
can ship one application (with Bora functionality) that work both on
such N770 and N880?


 And that is that is the real question.  Otherwise as someone else
put it, you're just fire-bombing the userbase who owns 770s.  I
thought the idea of Maemo was to make a user-friendly internet tablet,
not put everyone on a high-priced hardware upgrade plan.

Yes, I was too. They're not overly cheap devices and Nokia has been
courting the OSS community with them but then turns around and cuts it
off. Its all very well saying they'll support it the problem I see is
that they're lavishing all the main 3rd party devs with these nice new
devices and suddenly there's no updated versions of apps for the old
IT-2006. I'm yet to actually see abiword for IT-2006. At the very
least you have split dev... those with one OS version but not the
other.

I wouldn't mind so much is the entire platform was open and you could
build and exact copy of the OS and call it something else like RedHat
allows with their RHEL where you can get a 3rd party version called
CentOS (I think) but this is not the case with maemo... there's a
large majority of it that's open but all the DSP audio stuff isn't as
are chunks of other stuff. When it comes down to it its like their no
better than the likes of the graphics card manufacturers or wireless
card devs with their drivers almost open but not quite.

A large chunk of the devices look quite similar to me so I don't quite
see the issues here (maybe I'm missing something) but they both run
arm procs with DSPs, have BT (ok one had v1.x and the other v2 but its
the same to the kernel), SD vs MMC (but I think the kernel handles
them the same, a second shouldn't make any diff... one less/more to
deal with) wireless (maybe different), 800x480 screen (possibly diff
vid cards but there's no WM diffs etc to deal with for res). OK one
doesn't have a video cam, but if its not there it can't be used can
it!

I might have missed something but at the moment I just see Nokia
hiding behind a single blog entry.


At $350 I see it as inexcusable. It's annoying when Linksys stops
releasing firmware updates for buggy firmware in a $30 router, but it's
a bit different in this case*. It seems that hardware vendors have no
problem not caring about (or at least seriously neglecting) existing
products, from a $30 router to a $2400 laptop (BIOS updates). This may
be all fine and dandy with someone who has no problem dropping $400 on a
N800 after they've only had their 770 for 18 months (and it's _great_
for Nokia as this person will probably blog about how cool it is), but
some of us want our software to outlive the hardware, not the other way
around.


At least with a lot of the $30 routers they are using standard
hardware that can usual have custom firmwares that run Linux (like
openwrt) for them to allow further updates that maintain complete or
better functionality if they don't run Linux already.


Personally, I'm going to seriously look into getting GPE on my 770 and
partake of the cornucopia of Linux software ready-made from OpenEmbedded

I still prefer maemo but that may well change...


* Yes, yes. I know there will be more firmware updates, but I'm in

Yes, but that's like apple releasing a new update for a 2 gen old ipod
that fixes one really annoying bug but updates the DRM to the new
version too.

[maemo-developers] maemo-recorder and iLBC conversion

2007-01-09 Thread Roberto Resoli

Hi,
I have used recently maemo-recorder to record about two hours of
speech, using the iLBC audio format. To my surprise, i discovered that
is very hard to find a way to convert this audio format to a more
common one.
I also noted that this issue was already pointed out in this list.

After many searches, i finally opted for slightly modifying the
reference code in  rfc3951 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3951.txt ,
following the directions in http://www.ilbcfreeware.org/software.html

I guess that I cannot publicize the code for licencing raesons, but
the modifications are really trivial.

The resulting raw pcm file can be easily manipulated using sox:
sox -t raw -s -w -c 1 -r 8000 sounndfile.pcm  soundfile.wav

I post here hoping this could help someone.

Bye,
Roberto.

Re: [maemo-developers] Xvideo support for Nokia 770?

On Tuesday 09 January 2007 20:59, Charles 'Buck' Krasic wrote:

> Any chance the Xvideo support in the Bora 3.0  will turn up in a 770 OS?

I asked the same question on #maemo irc channel and daniels explained that
video scaling is done by gpu on N800, so probably the same code can't be
reused on 770: https://mg.pov.lt/maemo-irclog/%23maemo.2007-01-08.log.html

Actually I have been thinking about trying to implement Xvideo support on 770
for some time already. Now as N800 has Xvideo support, it would be nice to
have it on 770 as well for better consistency and software compatibility.

I see the following possible options:

1. Implement it just using ARM core and optimize it as much as possible 
(using dynamically generated code for scaling to get the best performance).
Is quite a straightforward solution and only needs time to implement it.

2. Try using dsp tasks that already exist on the device and are used for
dspfbsink. But the sources of gst plugins contain code that limits 
video resolution for dspfbsink. I wonder if this check was introduced
artificially or it is the limitation of DSP scaler and it can't handle
anything larger than that. Also I wonder if existing video scaler DSP task can
support direct rendering [2]. It would need to support arbitrary number of
memory mapped buffers for video output in order to avoid unnecessary 
memcpy, otherwise performance will suffer.

Maybe we can ask Nokia developers to provide some information about the 
internals of these plugins. The most important questions are:
* What are the real capabilities of DSP based scaler, can it be used for
resolutions let's say up to 800x480?
* Where is the screen update performed after dsp has finished
scaling/converting video from mapped buffer to framebuffer? Is it done on 
ARM side, or probably screen update can be also triggered from DSP directly?
* Is it possible to get direct rendering [2] support with existing dsp tasks
on 770? If not, would it be too hard to implement this feature?
* How are timestamps handled in dsp? Is it possible to just send a one shot
signal to dsp task for rendering video frame from a mapped buffer as fast as
possible?

A brief dsp interface description would be welcome. Maybe some questions 
may be trivial, but unfortunately I did not have much time for a detailed walk
through the sources in order to figure out how this all works. If any Nokia 
developer finds time for some short answers, it would really help a lot.

3. Try implementing a new DSP based scaler from scratch. The most 
important thing to know is how to access framebuffer directly from DSP 
and move data to it from mapped buffer without any overhead. The first 
test implementation can just perform nonscaled planar YV12 -> packed YUV422
conversion, if it proves to be fast and useful, it  could be extended to also
support scaling.

PS. This is unrelated to Xvideo support development, but also it would be nice
to have more or less detailed description of dsp based gstreamer elements 
and their properties. While the sources of these plugins are available (with a
hidden dsp part), some docs are needed to know how they are supposed to 
work  in order to use them efficiently and probably improve.

At maemo.org, it has already been stated that there will be a maemo 2.2 
release, although this may only be for developers.  One possible way to 
interpret this is that 2.x releases will be for the 770, while 3.x 
releases will be for the N800.

future. It was pretty tough :-) Also it doesn't send good message to 
users and developers considering the platform. Well, life is hard. Time

[maemo-developers] N800 Developer Programme Application

2007-01-09 Thread Raphaël Slinckx

Hi !

I have seen the n800 "sponsorship" programme to receive a reduced price
version of the n800 tablet if sponsored by someone inside Nokia.

I would like to apply for such a sponsorship.

Let me introduce myself:
I'm Raphael Slinckx (aka kikidonk) and I'm a gnome developer maintaining the
deskbar-applet, and working for Collabora since a year to improve the
Telepathy framework.
I have been recently working on integrating telepathy in Gossip, and I have
now a working voip/video solution for gossip that is ready to be merged back
in to the telepathy branch.

I would like to test and play with the device to improve existing support
for video on gossip, and try to contribute a bit more to the Telepathy
framework.

My blog is at http://raphael.slinckx.net/blog you can get some screenshots
of my work over there.

Let me know if you would like to have more information!


I hope to receive a positive answer,
Thanks a lot !
Raphael

Re: [maemo-developers] garage/extras repository for bora?

2007-01-09 Thread Levi Bard

When can we expect to have a new garage/extras repository for bora (and
instructions for posting a package to this repository)?  Some of the
applications at the extras mistral repository may not work on bora, and it
would be nice to have a separate repository for applications that are
known to work on bora (or at least are supposed to work on bora).


Seconded.  It would also give a good way to branch apps that have to
be code-nonidentical for the two releases (e.g. xv vs xsp pixel
doubling) without silly package name hacks.

Any chance the Xvideo support in the Bora 3.0  will turn up in a 770 OS?

[maemo-developers] python osso and icd

2007-01-09 Thread Fabio Forno

Hi,
since i've problems to keep the connection on sending the command with
dbus-send (see the trhread above), i'm trying with a simple python
script. I've tried other icd commands and I had no problems, but the
connect method does not work:

osso_c.rpc_run("com.nokia.icd", "/com/nokia/icd", "com.nokia.icd",
"connect", rpc_args = ("myap", 0, 0), wait_reply = True,
use_system_bus=True)
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "", line 1, in ?
osso.OssoRPCException: Unsupported interface or method

I think this is due to the fact that the two 0s are signed, while the
interface of connect takes two uint32 params. Is there a way to force
the type of the parameters?

I don't want to directly use the dbus bindings of python since I've
found there are few memory leaks that make them unusable for long
running applications

Maemo/770 activities can be understood quite generally.
E.g. If developers are active in open-source projects that contribute to Maemo
(Gtk, X, bluez, dbus, gstreamer, ...) they have a chance.

We have been already working with that. I had a quick&dirty demo

So it wasn't ready for anything but just showing that Hildon Desktop

But that is intended to become the version which is gong to work in

If you want to help, you might want to look to stage's branches, branch

That will not be the case. Having participated in the 770 developer
program is neither a precondition nor an impediment for the N800

Nokia will invite developers based on their Maemo/770 related activities.


And, what about the new upcoming developers, that haven't got the 700

No, those tutorials are not for plugins. The plugin code for HildonDesktop has 
seen some significant improvements very recently and in future it *could* be 
possible to do the plugins in e.g. Python. We are looking into the feasibility 
of doing it in practise on the device.

[maemo-developers] Telomer, a WIP email client

2007-01-09 Thread Dave Cridland

Hiya folks,

Since I've not mentioned it on the mailing list before, and since 
it's reaching the point it's usable with slightly less hand-holding 
than before, I'd like to point out Telomer to the assembled masses.


Telomer is a Lemonade Profile capable ACAP-aware email client, 
written in Python. Loosely, this means that it's a very low bandwidth 
IMAP/ESMTP client which can share its configuration with your 
desktop/laptop client (assuming it, too, speaks ACAP, like Polymer 
does). In fact, it's simpler to configure it by configuring Polymer 
somewhere.


It follows the Lemonade Profile - RFC4550 - which provides several 
extensions to IMAP and ESMTP to provide much increased efficiency. It 
also has support for several other IMAP and ESMTP extensions, which 
minimizes the bandwidth usage, making it reasonably fast and very 
cheap over mobile links.


It does not do traditional desktop client things like POP3, nor 
threaded message displays. If you want that, you're best off with 
something like Sylpheed - Andrew Flegg has ported it at 
http://www.bleb.org/software/770/#sylpheed


If does, however, synchronize my INBOX (which has 40,000 messages in) 
in a few seconds (and fewer bytes) over GPRS, and it'll forward a 55M 
message over GPRS faster than a desktop client can on a LAN - 
http://blog.dave.cridland.net/?p=17 gives some details using Polymer, 
which uses the same library.


It's still a work in progress, and still unsuited to end users, but 
I'm at the point where I use it regularly, for keeping track of my 
email over lunchtime, etc, and it would benefit hugely from people:


- Giving me comments.
- Finding bugs.
- Testing it.
- Contributing code.

Please give it a go, repository information is at 
http://trac.dave.cridland.net/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/wiki/Polymer770 - and 
feel free to drop me a line by Jabber, email, etc to let me know how 
you get on. I'm also about on #maemo as dwd if you prefer IRC.


Dave.

2007-01-09 Thread Mathias Uebelacker
Hello Jakub,

thanks for the new link. now i have two more queations:

1, It is possible to get the whole files of your "Aviation Weather Home Applet" 
before making a package for the device (to examine each file and the 
dir-structure)?, by that it would be a pleisure for to write than a 
"newbie-tutorial".

2. You point me to a bora tutorial - is there no difference between home 
applets for the N777 and the N800? I thought that bora is only for the N800

Thanks Mathias

[maemo-developers] libgpsbt 0.1-18 license?

2007-01-09 Thread Jukka.Rissanen
Hi,

the copyright notice is missing from COPYING file in both libgpsbt and 
libgpsmgr files, the right text can be found at debian/copyright file.
Also libgpsbt/debian/copyright file talks about libgpsmgr library instead of 
libgpsbt.
All the *.c and *.h files have correct copyright texts in place.

Hello Mohammad,

Yes, you are right, actually I just did it.
I used maemo-sdk-install_3.0.sh when I installed and I guessed
it installed everything...

Now I can see the virtual keyboard and others also.
Thank you for the info.

Hi,

As the http://repository.maemo.org/stable/bora/INSTALL.txt says,
you need to download the binaries installer, then after that just
apt-get install maemo-explicit.

The binaries installer is available here:

Hi,

I just installed maemo 3.0 and executed af-sb-init.sh, but I got
the following error and couldn't see virtual keyboard (soft key).

AF Warning: '/etc/osso-af-init/keyboard.defs' not found

Is it expected?

maemo 2.1 with scratchbox 0.9.8 has the file above and can show
the virtual keyboard (e.g, when I execute maemopad).

I'm wondering to implement plugin for Hildon Input Methods
so I guess I need the GUI.

Yes, it's possible. The (new) theming is a bit of a work in progress
(still) but you can already use it. The basic process would go as
follows:

1) Install the hildon-theme-tools
2) Install the hildon-theme-layout-3 (that's the bora layout)
3) Copy the hlidon-theme-plankton-3 to your own dir, replace some names 
   in configure.ac (they're documented in the file)
4) Replace the template.png with your own. 

Than, to build the correct debian package you will want to do the usual
search & replace in the debian/* files. 

As I said, we're still working on the theming and there will be updates
coming. Don't hesitate to ask questions though.

Hi there,

We have been working on that already in the HildonDesktop
(http://www.karoliinasalminen.com/blog/?p=143). Scaling it up was just
first step. Reworking the dependencies would be next one. Keep it touch
if you feel like helping with that.

Br,

P.S.: Code is out there in the open (is it this one?
https://stage.maemo.org/svn/maemo/projects/haf/branches/maemo-af-desktop
/hildon-desktop/).
