<wpwrak> btw, in case someone feels bored or needs to kill time until the gifts arrive (getting a little late for that for those in .eu, though), here's a new block diagram: http://neo900.org/stuff/block-diagrams/neo900/neo900-wip-2014122421

<wpwrak> oy
<wpwrak> grr
<Oksana> ? Hello
<wpwrak> it's friggin' xmas eve on almost half of the planet. what do you expect it to be ? wild orgies ? ;-)
<Oksana> Well, I would expect that people free from work would double their efforts on open-source front ;-) But they are more likely to run away from computers altogether, so... Almost-silence in many places.
<wpwrak> in german, there's even a song, about the most famous for xmas, going "quiet night, holy night ..." :)
<Oksana> Why does N950-flasher require sudo? Work-Linux is protected against sudo-attempts, so reflashing N950 (to latest-Nemo-Mobile) can be done only at home (fortunately, I have already downloaded image and such, so slow Internet is not going to be a problem).
<wpwrak> you should make friends with the people who can free you from that sort of straight-jackets :)
xes has quit [Quit: Going offline...]
Oxyd76 has joined #neo900
<Oksana> Heh... I know the admin, but I doubt he would make an exception for me, because it would set a dangerous precedent, and greatly increase number of problems he has to solve. As it is, handling proprietary=buggy software is no easy task. Mysterious problems come and go; log-off-log-on is the most common cure, but it does not always help.
<wpwrak> you just have to come up with a good excuse for him to give you the necessary "privileges". then he's covered. and at universities, people rarely get hanged for screwing up, so even if you did cause some damage, he probably wouldn't worry too much.

<Pali> fuck, my raspberrypi with debian *wheezy* wants to install new package called init-system-helpers
<Pali> Maintainer: pkg-systemd-maintainers <pkg-systemd-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org>
<wpwrak> do you feel the cold fingers of evil gripping your shoulder ? :)
<Pali> lennarts wants also embeded world or what?
<Pali> package fake-hwclock now depends on that systemd shit
<Pali> are they idiots or what?
<wpwrak> soon, /bin/true will require it ...
sixwheeledbeast has left #neo900 [#neo900]
<Pali> script in cron which read current timestamp and store it to disk depends on that?
sixwheeledbeast has joined #neo900
<Pali> my rpi has only 500MHz processor and only 256MB of RAM... I cannot install systemd because I do not have enough memory for it
<Pali> so no thanks!
sixwheeledbeast has left #neo900 [#neo900]
<bencoh> 256mo isnt enough for systemd ? :]
<DocScrutinizer51> xactly my point since over a year. Lennart ~poettering nuking linux for everything other than desktop PC workstation usecase
<DocScrutinizer51> ~poettering
<infobot> 'sth is poettering' means it acts invasive, possessive, destructive, and generally in an egocentric exacerbating negative way. ``this cancer is extremely poettering'', or you look here for Linus' notion on what's poettering: http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1404.0/01331.html, or http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1404.0/01488.html, or see ~systemd cabal
<SylvieLorxu> Wow, Linus is friendly in those posts
<bencoh> :)

<mvaenskae> Pali: systemd will make great friends in the embedded world of uclibc and musl ;) ohhh wait... it is designed to run with glibc
paulk-aldrin has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<mvaenskae> DocScrutinizer51: i am getting weird looks if i say i am anti-systemd "awww come on, it's just an init system, it won't kill you to use it"... yup, maybe not now but in 5 years even a stupid text editor will depend on some interface it offers and oh boy will kdbus give a field day for exploits to run in kernel level as opposed to userspace
<SylvieLorxu> "It's only one of the most important parts of a system"
<bencoh> mvaenskae: they hardcoded glibc-specific stuff as well ?
<bencoh> seriously now .... when you thought it couldnt get worst ...
<bencoh> (it will)
<bencoh> -t+e
<MonkeyofDoom> "oh boy will kdbus give a field day for exploits to run in kernel level as opposed to userspace" the other part is true but this is nonsense
<DocScrutinizer51> yup
<MonkeyofDoom> there's no reason kdbus will be more exploity than any other IPC service the kernel provides, and the kernel side of kdbus solves some problems that weren't well-solved previously which will benefit things like Wayland's use of SHM

<phre4k> I posted about the neo900 in a German tech forum, response was rather negative. Noobs :D https://ngb.to/threads/13491-neo900-%E2%80%93-Wiedergeburt-des-Nokia-N900
<Humpelstilzchen> not for everyone
<phre4k> ^
<phre4k> I thought IT pros would know what's great about the neo900 and what it is not.

<mvaenskae> hm, those people seem to be interested in IT, but not in linux and security
<mvaenskae> reading in the forums people also seem to think only samsung/apple have planned obsolence... very naive :)
<Humpelstilzchen> neo900 will also feature planned obsolence?
norly has quit [Ping timeout: 258 seconds]
<kerio> it's already obsolete! :D
norly has joined #neo900
<DocScrutinizer51> obsolte like a Porsche911
<DocScrutinizer51> s/porsche911/Delorian/
<mvaenskae> kerio: well, according to the people in the thread it will be
<mvaenskae> DocScrutinizer51: btw, why are you not listening to those smart guys in the thread? they can supply everything for 100 bucks per device!
<kerio> LOL
<kerio> DocScrutinizer51: "obsolete like a delorean" is a really nice analogy
<kerio> especially cuz there is a company selling "new" deloreans using old parts and compatible parts
mvaenskae has quit [Ping timeout: 255 seconds]
<bencoh> :-)
<sixwheeledbeast> and the fact deloreans were cleverly engineered

<gottosortoutanic> how does the line-in the gta04 compare to the line-in of the neo900?

<DocScrutinizer51> Oksana: ta
<Oksana> Moin
<Oksana> How are you?
<DocScrutinizer51> btw ECI is a non-warranted feature. I.E. a feature we try to implement / support but we cannot guarantee it
<DocScrutinizer51> thanks, I'm fine! and you?
<wpwrak> gottosortoutanic: all you ever wanted to forget about ECI: https://dspace.cc.tut.fi/dpub/bitstream/handle/123456789/20669/hannula.pdf
<wpwrak> (this link is somewhat misleadingly called "web page" in the block diagram pop-up on ECI)
<Oksana> ((off-topic)) Does anybody know where gta04 schematics are? Like, what's the line-in in the gta04?
<wpwrak> they's in the system manual: http://projects.goldelico.com/p/gta04-main/downloads/
* Oksana yawns sleepily, and thinks on cooking the forgotten cookies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meringue
<gottosortoutanic> gta04 1.3mp optional cam (if i can get one) or 5.3mp auto focus neo900 cam... ooooow what a dilemma
gottosortoutanic is now known as astr
<DocScrutinizer51> so a new "problem". Neo900 doesn't know DAB
<nox-> what phone does anyway?
<nox-> fm sure but dab...
<wpwrak> and where's two-way shortwave, e.g., when you're on oceanic flight 815 ?
