GentSirAnyone around?08:34
Stskeepssort-of08:34
GentSirI was wondering, is there a list of x86 devices that Sailfish has been shown to work on?08:35
JonniGentSir: Sailfish OS has not been released. Someone has runned sailfish sdk in exopc forexample.08:36
GentSirJonni, I know one guy got it running on an Iconia Tab. It's just a little tough testing gesture controls in Virtualbox08:37
JonniGentSir: well thats is true, a bit hard since vbox sdk only sends mouse events and not QTouchEvents :)08:38
Jonnior what kind of gesture controls you meant? :)08:39
*** Pat_o has quit IRC08:39
GentSirJonni, like swiping covers aside and menus down08:39
GentSirIt's very hard in virtualbox08:39
GentSirI was thinking of buying a device it'll load on in its current state08:39
Jonniah, that just takes a bit of practice08:39
GentSirJonni, it's still much nicer on an actual touchscreen08:40
Jonniwell yes, you can use any x86 windows touchpads/laptops etc, if you just copy the vm to windows vbox :)08:41
GentSirMy mate up north still has my Nokia N9, he'll be shipping that down and I plan to get Nemo running on it. So I can at least get experience with Qt/QML on that form factor08:41
phakoQt/QML experience works quite ok with stock N908:42
GentSirI've searched for two years for an N950, but the few I've been able to find are priced at $1500 or more08:42
Jonniaverage price for N950 seems to be around 900-1000e08:43
GentSirAs much as I've wanted that hardware, it's not worth that price now08:44
GentSirI recently moved, and all I brought with me as far as test devices go are android phones08:44
Jonniheh, yes price quite high when the real value of N950 is around 150e.08:45
GentSirJonni, what currency are you using?08:47
GentSirI don't recognize the 'e' after it08:47
Jonnie as in euro08:47
GentSirOH, I should've known that08:47

kontiomaybe not what you meant but a workaround?09:25
GentSirkontio, that would work perfectly. Thank you09:26
GentSirBeen awhile since I've used Virtualbox09:26
GentSirI only have a single 22" monitor right now, so I don't have a ton of space to work with09:27
kontioyeah have the same issue when working on laptop :-)09:30
GentSirI'm actually working on my laptop right now09:30
GentSir2008 Macbook 4, 1. It's getting old, but I haven't found anything I like more09:31

*** Pali has joined #sailfishos10:29
Sfiet_KonstantinGentSir: still in your quest of the N950 ?10:30
Sfiet_Konstantinhaving an N9 already makes you quite unique10:30
GentSirSfiet_Konstantin, yes, but I'm still on my quest for the holy grail10:32
GentSirSfiet_Konstantin, N9's are very easy to get10:32
GentSirI can go on ebay and there are around a dozen listed for around $30010:32
GentSirBut a n950, on the rare occasions someone is selling one, have been from $1000-200010:33
Sfiet_KonstantinGentSir: or ask a friend working at nokia10:33
GentSirSfiet_Konstantin, I'm only 19, not old enough to know anyone from the glory days of nokia :)10:34
Sfiet_KonstantinGentSir: I see :P10:35
Sfiet_Konstantinthat's a problem indeed10:35
GentSirI believe I've said it to you before, but I believe there's probably a box of n950's and other dev phones that will never be used10:35

GentSirSfiet_Konstantin, but my age gives me an advantage over older developers, I don't have any ingrained bad habits yet10:38
niweberafter getting my n9, I never touched my n950 again10:39
GentSirniweber, to get an n950? I have an n9, but I've always wanted an n950 just for the sake of having oen10:39
*** Pat_o has joined #sailfishos10:39
Sfiet_KonstantinGentSir: I have learnt one thing10:40
Sfiet_Konstantintinker with the devices you have10:40
Sfiet_Konstantinget the max out of them10:40
Sfiet_Konstantindon't think about getting more powerful one for the sake of having one10:40
niweberGentSir: n950 is just like the n9, just way slower and with crappy reception10:40
GentSirSfiet_Konstantin, all the devices I brought with me when I moved where Android phones. My mate up north is sending my n9 down and I'll have it by the time the community releases a sailfish image for it10:41
GentSirSorry about bad grammar/spelling this morning10:42

libregeekingkidSfiet_Konstantin: and the sdk file extension is. run and not .bin11:47
niweberlibregeekingkid: you can do it from the graphical interface11:47
libregeekingkidniweber: how11:47
niweberlibregeekingkid: right click on the downloaded file, there has to be a setting somewhere whether to allow executing11:48
niweberlibregeekingkid: after you set that, you can simply double-click11:48
GentSirlibregeekingkid, it might help if we need what desktop environment/distro you're using11:49

GentSirI'm actually surprised by how many people don't develop in english, I thought it was the standard12:01
Sfiet_KonstantinGentSir: what do you mean, develop in english12:02
niweberfilmed with n9 ;)12:03
GentSirSfiet_Konstantin, by how many people don't have their desktop interface in english12:03
Sfiet_Konstantinwell, if the DE is in your language, why would you choose english ?12:03
GentSirSfiet_Konstantin, I'm an american, haven't really been exposed to the cultural diversity seen in other parts of the world12:04
Sfiet_KonstantinGentSir: I see :) however, other people are attached to their language as well, even if they code / tweet / chat in english12:05
Sfiet_Konstantinniweber: filmed with an N9, but did you spot the tee shirt ?12:05
mikhasThe N9 was easy to spot in the reflection.12:06
GentSirSfiet_Konstantin, filming with an n9 takes you to a whole new level of fanboy status12:06
Sfiet_KonstantinGentSir: no, it is just because I have that phone to film12:06
Sfiet_KonstantinI'm phone agnostic right now12:07
Sfiet_KonstantinI choose the best UI that's all12:07
mikhasGentSir, it always takes extra effort for us to use English. And we cant be as smart/witty in English as in our mother tongue either.12:07
mikhasIdioms are a huge problem when using different languages. They often dont translate very well.12:07
Sfiet_Konstantinfun, nobody have spotted the tee shirt :(:(12:07
mikhasCovered by the N9.12:07
mikhasTry with less window reflections next time ;-)12:08
Sfiet_Konstantinmikhas: no, I'm sure that you can see it, close to the end, when I play with accelerometer12:08
GentSirmikhas, I've actually found that many people who use english as their second language are much more precise with it than us native speakers12:08
Sfiet_Konstantinmikhas: yeah, ok ...12:08
Sfiet_Konstantinmikhas: everybody is telling me about that window reflection ...12:09
mikhasGentSir, because it's a conscious effort for us.12:09
*** jpetersen_ is now known as jpetersen12:10
GentSirmikhas, a friend of mine grew up in germany and learned english as her second language. She speaks it very well, but I could tell where she couldn't quite think of a word and would have to substitute a german one.12:10

GentSirSfiet_Konstantin, is there any particular reason you used Vimeo instead of YouTube?12:15
Sfiet_KonstantinGentSir: no, except the reason to be out of the google ecosystem12:16
Sfiet_Konstantinand I find vimeo more content friendly12:16
Sfiet_Konstantinsince I don't want to have lots of suggestions and comments12:17
GentSirSfiet_Konstantin, I know a lot about being out of the google ecosystem, it's a pain keeping an Android phone completely separated..12:18
mikhasAnd Vimeo has no video length limitation. And a better player.12:19
Sfiet_Konstantinmikhas: indeed the player is really really nice12:19
mikhasIt actually has working fullscreen.12:19
GentSirSfiet_Konstantin, your accent sounds Icelandic/Scandinavian12:19

GentSirHave you guys had the issue in the Sailfish emulator where the time display didn't show up, but was between the views?12:40
Sfiet_KonstantinGentSir: what do you mean ?12:41

GentSirI'll need to change that, alright12:53
GentSirlbt, is there a guide on the basic terminal functions and the login info for it?12:56
lbtno guide - just plain linux. The login info is in the FAQ page :)12:56
GentSirlbt, found it. thank you12:58
mikhasit's actually great that you can login to the SDK and build env12:59
mikhassomething I found very lacking with the Harmattan SDK12:59

JonniGentSir: most likely it is missing some depency or similar, you could try login as nemo, and launching it from commandline, usually output tells whats wrong.13:36
GentSirJonni, good idea, thank you13:36
JonniGentSir: heh and irc-chatter works in my sailfish emulator, so I guess I have depency packages installed :)13:40
GentSirOne sec, about to get you the error message13:41
GentSirJonni, that helpful at all? http://i.imgur.com/TMoSedy.png13:42
JonniGentSir: yes, if you do: "zypper in qt-components" you will get that application running.13:43
GentSirIsn't qt-components the harmattan stuff?13:43
GentSirSorry about the spelling13:43
JonniGentSir: but that package is obsoleted and most likely will not be available on final product, as it provides com.nokia.meego component, and you should port apps to use silica.13:44
Jonniits just there for making porting easier ie when you want to see if app even starts13:45
GentSirJonni, I just wanted to get a couple nemo/MeeGo apps running in the emulator to get a feel for it13:45
Jonniyep for that installing the package will help13:45
GentSirJust did, and I'm restarting the emulator. Thank you13:45
*** SfietKonstantin has joined #sailfishos13:46
GentSirI'm going to be working on learning Qt/QML, and about the Mer stack underneath Sailfish OS. Maybe I'll be able to make something useful13:46
JonniGentSir: and you dont need to restart emu to get app icons showing up. running this as root will restart lipstick etc: systemctl restart user-session@1000.service13:47
GentSirJonni, after I installed qt-comp my screen is black at boot. Not sure if it's the power saver or something else13:49

Merbotlbt: Error: "!" is not a valid command.14:02
lbthush up Merbot :)14:02
lbtthat's unexpected GentSir - the emulator should run in portrait mode14:03
GentSirlbt: The emulator runs in portrait, but irc-chatter runs in landscape. So it's not very usable. That's all14:03
lbtoh,14:04
GentSirlbt, concentrate on your meeting, not the newcomers like myself :)14:04
lbtyeah, we don't have a mechanism to rotate to landscape in alpha14:04
lbtbeta is likely to have 'reboot to rotate' which sucks but is best option for now14:04
lbtunless we find some RDP/Qt coders....anyone?14:05
GentSirAn an actual device I'd just turn it sidewise, not really an option in VB though14:05
lbtno, and it's a bit complex at the code level14:05
lbtwe need to rotate a lot of layers14:05
GentSirlbt, stuff end-users think is very simple is often very difficult to actually do. I understand14:06
GentSirActually, I could see if there's a way for Openbox to just rotate the window the emulator is running in...14:06
GentSirThat would be similar to just rotating the device14:07

GentSirlbt, so Nemo is the completely "open" version, but SailfishOS is more suitable for if hardware makers want to custom package it for their hardware?22:59
lbtgood enough :)22:59
lbttypically commercial companies would consider commercial deals as cost-effective ways to solve some problems23:00
lbteg consultancy, licensing , support23:00
GentSirand I know there's a stigma about completely FOSS solutions in many commercial companies23:01
lbtyeah, all kinds of FUD and confusion23:01

GentSirlbt, so if they're fundamentally the same, why shouldn't I just build apps for Nemo and do the little bit of porting work to run it on SailfishOS?23:06
GentSirIf Jolla as a company fails, I'm sure Nemo will live on23:06
lbtoh, for sure23:07
lbtMer and Nemo came first and are designed to be more resilient than any one company23:07
GentSirI was amazed, I dropped into the terminal on Sailfish and released that it IS just a Linux system. I was impressed23:07
lbtbut in turn that means that people have confidence in Sailfish underpinnings23:07
lbtand that makes it more likely to succeed23:07
GentSirYes, I see the logic23:07
GentSirI surely hope it succeeds, I really like what I see so far. I'm delving into Qt/QML and hopefully I'll be able to make something useful23:08
lbtwe're confident23:10
GentSirThe "cover" pages remind me a lot of WinMo live tiles23:10
GentSirI really like the UI23:11
GentSirAndroid is a kludged together mess, but it's the best on the market right now, I'll be happy to buy my first Jolla branded phone23:11
lbt*g*23:12
GentSirI know you can't give too many details. But what are the plans for supported carriers and bands?23:14
*** M4rtinK has quit IRC23:14
GentSirGSM/HSPA+ are pretty standard, so I'd assume they'd be in the first rollout23:15
lbtI simply don't know - we've made announcements about finnish and chinese carriers so far I think - check the press stuff for accuracy :)23:17
GentSirlbt, I wasn't going to quote you on it! But I'll check out the Jolla press releases23:18
GentSirThe press release looks like it was translated into English from another language23:20
GentSirOr at least written by a non-native speaker23:20
lbtfinnish :)23:20
lbtwhich?23:20
GentSirThe november 21, 2012 press release23:20
GentSirI actually prefer reading stuff by non-native english speakers. Their grammar is much more precise and the text is more tersely worded.23:21
GentSirI'll admit that I have plenty of bad habits in English23:21
lbthehe -- well I know for sure big chunks were at least edited by a native english speaker23:22
lbtbut you can only do so much when editing23:22
lbtthere's been more news since then around MWC23:23
*** jjarven has quit IRC23:24
GentSirThat's the only press release I saw. I went through the mailing list and every article I could find23:24
*** jstaniek has quit IRC23:26
GentSirNow I'm going through the twitter feed23:28
GentSirThe things I'm willing to put up with for proper Linux23:28
GeneralAntillesGentSir, you haven't have much experience with Nokia's documentation, have you?23:28
lbthey GeneralAntilles23:29
GeneralAntillesHi, lbt.23:29
lbtbeen a while :)23:29
GentSirGeneralAntilles, literally none. I've used a couple Nokia devices and really liked them, done a little Android development, but I've never touched Qt/QML before now23:29
GeneralAntillesI've been around. ;)23:29
GeneralAntillesGentSir, well, their non-native speaker copy has historically been terrible.23:29
lbtFinns speak great english compared to English speakers speaking finnish23:30
GentSirGeneralAntilles, my first (and only) language is English. I was just commenting that good non-native speakers are much more precise23:30
lbtsadly they speak it so well they try to write it too :D :D :D23:31
GentSirI try to make sure I structure my sentences perfectly when talking in places like this where there are many non-native speakers.23:31
lbtnah, I figure I'm teaching them23:32
GentSirBy slipping in slang and mixing up your grammar rules?23:32
lbtof course23:32
GentSirMixing up your predicate and subject are you?23:32
lbtseriously though - we do make an effort to encourage non-native speakers around mer/nemo and of course sailfish23:33
GentSirYes, I know many of the original Nokia engineers fall into that category23:34
lbtit just gets to be a problem when they'rs so proficient that I forget people are using a second language23:34
GentSirOne of my best friends grew up in germany and speaks English as her second language, I've ran into that issue with her23:34
lbtrun23:34
lbtor "I ran"23:35
* lbt runs23:35
lbtsee :D23:35
GentSirYeah, or "lay" and "lie". Little stuff a native speaker corrects automatically when reading it, but someone who isn't a native speaker tries to comprehend it literally.23:36

GentSirI spent awhile trying to pick up Icelandic, tried to use it a little when I was at EVE Fanfest. The natives happily dropped into English for me instead of letting me struggle :/23:37
