 Hi,

 differences between N800 and N810:

 - N810 is a bit smaller, but screen is exactly the same size and resolution

Just for the record : screen protector for 770 and N800 are almost ok
for N810 but you need to cut them for a few milimetters on both sides
because of screen casing on N810

 - the N810 is at least twice as heavy as the N800

No, it only weights 20g more than N800. But it might feel heavier
because it is more compact and you don't keep it in your hands the
same way you do for N80

 Please keep us informed about your progress. I am sure many of us will help
 you with testing.

I'm sure even Navicore people will be interested.

I've just discovered on my n810 that sound files used by Maps
application shipped with IT2008 are in fact .ogg files

This mean Maps / Navicore is probably shipping its own ogg vorbis decoder.

Funny, isn't it ? :)

 Hi all. I'm developing a Last.fm player for the 770/N800/N810 and I'd
 like to know what's the proper way to implement the volume control.
 
 I'm using gstreamer (dspmp3sink) to play the files. Is there any way
 of controlling the volume with gstreamer?
 
 I tried with gst_audio_default_registry_mixer_filter() but I had no
 luck.

For UI part, it is best to use HildonV/HVolumeBar.

For control part, you can change volume property on dspmp3sink. Try
using gst-inspect-0.10 dspmp3sink to discover the various properties on
this particular sink.

 Should I use alsa instead?

If you use alsa, you will modify the overall device output, not just
vagalume volume.

 I don't have gst-inspect-0.10 in my N800.

It is available in gstreamer0.10-tools package which can be installed
after enabling redpill mode in application manager.

 And GST_IS_MIXER(sink) returns FALSE.

I'm not sure dspmp3sink is a gstmixer. Try setting / getting the

 Hi,
 
 We are near to implement user karma in maemo.org. Like most karma
 systems, it is used as a nice add-on to promote and show off those
 investing time and energies in the project.
 
 We are fine tuning the equation, that currently takes into account the
 activity in several corners of maemo.org:
 
 - your applications in Downloads, the more stars they receive the more
 karma you get.
 
 - your evaluation and comments in Downloads
 
 - your participation in garage projects
 
 - your activity in mailing lists (IMPORTANT: requires that your email
 address is the same than in your maemo account)
 
 - your wiki pages (created only, edited would take too much resources to
 scan - sorry).
 
 - your blog posts aggregated in planet - favs and buries affect your
 karma.
 
 - your evaluation of posts in News

There seems to be a cache issue in maemo.org profile management. 

I've tried to change email I used for my maemo account to the one I
already use for bugzilla and mailing list. I did the change on
maemo.org, it looks ok in the profile. But if I check back some hours
later, change seems to have been dropped.

  Isn't it a good idea to restart the bus when you upgrade dbus?

When you upgrade D-Buss itself, yes, it is a requirement. But for
configuration file, it isn't needed. And the main problem, when
restarting dbus is that many clients don't handle D-Bus system bus
restart (like avahi) and will exit directly, causing a nice chain
reaction. This is why more and more distributions are asking people to
restart their system after upgrading D-Bus.

 Avahi's not at fault here.  And I think `avahi-daemon' can handle bus
 restarts.

No, it doesn't. Just tested 0.6.21 and it dies when system bus is
restarted.

And it causes avahi clients to die too :(

You have to remember that Nokia is a product driven company.

And CeBiT is starting in 5 days, so it wouldn't be surprising to see
some n800 related announcements (following the GPS navigation stuff) and
maybe firmware upgrade.

And Nokia has also just released some new telepathy components as open
source, including a SIP (Sofia-SIP) telepathy component. So, who know,
we might be able to have SIP integrated in n800, without the need of
using Gizmo.

Of course, all things above are suppositions from me.

They only support g711 vocodeur ATM (because they are using Cirpack PBX)

It is quite simple : Nokia folks explained it during their presentation

decided to do MP3 support first, because it is still the most used audio
format by average users. Same idea for video, which is forcing N770 to
use both Real Helix and Gstreamer in the video player, because they
needed Real suppport. Of course, Nokia developers really wanted to
support open formats but those were not a priority, which is quite
