2007-07-05 Thread Mathias Uebelacker

Hello Quim,

i use the wiki ( the last to ). In my opinion a wiki is a good place to
start, walk around and get a feeling whats going on. For a new owner (just
bought the device) the best place to start. It does not matter what i am
looking for. From the wiki i can go to every section of the side without
knowledge about the structure or the to which section belongs what i am
looking for.

If i am looking for additional software i could go to download a play with
search terms or categories or i use the wiki to get a list of all stuff
which is available.

The wiki is like a table of content een a good place to start.

  Wiki is always good =)

 - Are you using it? Did you use the previous one?

  For sure.

 - Are you thinking of using the community wiki?

  What do you mean with community wiki ?

 - Mention good things / bad things of the current wiki (and what would
 you do).

  The only bad stuff there are the old content...otherwise it's a
great start for beginners!

 Thank you.

yes I am using the current one it contains a few perls

I would like a world view / site map arranged on topic of booth wiki
and non wiki content
so that if I find that page I know I don't have to look in other parts
of the website
-kernel
--Official docs
--Wiki
--Download

I guess that it is the main wiki page that needs cleanup

RE: Wish list request for DSP EAP_* function header/information

2007-07-05 Thread Simon Pickering
Hi Quim,

I notice that my request hasn't been added to the wish list. I thought my
bugzilla entry and email would convey enough information to make this a valid
request. Do I need to do more? 

I'm not sure of the usual timeline from request to wish list addition and if I'm
simply being impatient then please tell me so. So, does the lack of a
reply/entry in the wish list mean that:

A) no-one's had time to add it yet, but the data will be available;
B) It's not possible to release the requested information;
C) It's still being looked into it;
D) No-one's started looking at this yet.

Thanks,


Simon

 Subject: Wish list request for DSP EAP_* function header/information
 
 Hello all,
 
 I've added this as a bug as it says on the Roadmap/wish list 
 page (BUG #1592).
 
 I'd like to add to the wish list my wish for a header file 
 listing the EAP_*
 (and any other) functions which wrap the audio codec driver 
 and are contained in
 the avs_kernel.out (DSP kernel). It would also be nice to 
 have either some
 example code or some explanation of each function, though not 
 essential.
 
 This would allow us to write code to use the audio output 
 (input?) capabilities
 of the N800 (and probably 770) and allow people to hack at 
 writing more dsp
 sinks for various music/sound formats (e.g. OGG, DTMF, G.729, etc.)
 
 Thanks,
 
 
 Simon

The question means if you have plans to user
http://maemo.org/community/wiki/ in the future.

Sorry if it was not clear. Another term that perhaps was not clear
enough is use. When we ask if you are/were using the wiki we mean not
only browsing pages but creating/editing content. Using the own tools of
the wiki.

This wiki is basically for you. We look for your feedback in order to
plan better the next steps improving it.

I am using it far less then previous one both for reading and editing.

 - Mention good things / bad things of the current wiki (and what would

I understand the need for better CMS system for whole site but still 
feature-wise the new wiki is IMO big step back from old one in all aspects.

Please add recent changes for whole wiki and also wiki search. Both 
features are invaluable for examining wiki content. Without those two 
features I am completely lost. Now the only way how to examine the wiki 
is the worst one - traversing links from front page. Yuck! This is not 
ideal for wiki at all due to its chaotic nature and notoriously bad 
structure.

Please add anonymous editing. There was discussion about this in the 
list, I think at that time there was general consensus that anonymous 
editing is quite important and then you took this feature away.
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/maemo/developers/11259#11259

Please make wiki easier to edit (less steps, less fancy stuff). The old 
way with preview and textbox on same page was easy, fast and was even 
usable from the device itself.

Howto: Installing Maemo SDK for Nokia 770

2007-07-05 Thread Andrea Grandi
Hi all!

Since the howto on maemo.org is very confused and contains a lot of
errors, I've written a simple howto that explain how to install the
maemo SDK 2.2 for N770.

You can find it here:
http://www.ptlug.org/wiki/Howto_Installing_Maemo_SDK_for_Nokia_770

Please let me know if there are any errors. Thanks!

Re: javascript perf on the n770 and n800

2007-07-05 Thread Acadia Secure Networks
Sean,

here is what I got:

 Nokia N800 - Standard Nokia provided Browser

 Try/Catch with errors   415
 Layer movement 1895
 Random number engine   2593
 Math engine4655
 DOM speed  6626
 Array functions1312
 String functions   1475
 Ajax declaration   1274
 Total Duration20245 ms


If it is any consolation to you, I tried to run the test on the Windows 
Mobile 5.0 IE browser and of course it failed since that browser does 
not support javascript. When I then tried to run it on Minimo (v0.2)  on 
the same device it soft-bricked the device  so I had to do a hard 
reset of Windows Mobile 5.0.


Best Regards,

 I was wondering what the js perf is on the n770 and n800?

 LowTideGames just wrote a game for the iPhone using a fair bit of
 javascript and the canvas tag. But JS perf is so horribly slow 
 that it does not run. Initially we thought it was a
 poorly implemented canvas tag, this is not the case. Canvas tag runs
 fine. It is javascript itself that is slow on the iPhone.

 It appears that a NOP function takes about 70 microseconds. In our tests,
 1000 executions of a function which does nothing took 74 milliseconds on
 the iPhone.

 There is a thread over on ajaxian about js perf on the iphone, and links
 to,

 http://celtickane.com/projects/jsspeed.php

 iphone results,

 http://ajaxian.com/archives/iphone-javascript-and-spec-benchmark

 Could someone run the above benchmark (jsspeed) on an N770 and N800 and reply 
 to this message?
 We would like to to an idea of how much js compute power is available on
 embedded internet devices. Esp Opera 9 embedded vs, iPhone Safari.

 We also have a benchmark that measures the speed of the canvas tag.

 http://lowtidegames.com/test/shapesonly.html

 Note: This script posts the results of the test back to our server so we
 could record the results from the iPhone.

Re: Howto: Installing Maemo SDK for Nokia 770

2007-07-05 Thread Quim Gil
Hi Andrea, thanks for this.

You have probably seen the questions sent yesterday about the maemo
wiki. Can you answer them or at least explain why have you created this
page in that site instead of maemo.org? Your answer (and the answer of
other contributors documenting maemo related stuff out of maemo.org)
will help us improving the maemo wiki.

Thanks!
