[4:06] <mervaka> gregoiregentil: what's the likely monthy transfer rates?
[4:06] <mervaka> i might be able to provide a uk mirror
[4:07] <mervaka> but ofc i'd want to cap the rate, it's my personal colo.
[4:09] * frznlogic (n=ai@78-72-42-225-no186.tbcn.telia.com) has joined #touchbook
[4:23] <frznlogic> hi, is anyone here?
[4:25] * Meiz_webirc (i=3ec5abe1@gateway/web/freenode/x-rqjnlpnpbsoxiwts) has joined #touchbook
[4:28] * MikeEvans (n=MikeEvan@tandem.force9.co.uk) has joined #touchbook
[4:28] <MikeEvans> YAY! I've just collected my touchbook from the parcel depot
[4:29] * Meiz_webirc (i=3ec5abe1@gateway/web/freenode/x-rqjnlpnpbsoxiwts) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
[4:30] <frznlogic> :)) same here, 3 days ago, finally got tsome time to play with it
[4:32] <MikeEvans> Ooo it looks lovely
[4:32] * Meiz_webirc (i=3ec5abe1@gateway/web/freenode/x-zzremshgduhknspp) has joined #touchbook
[4:33] <frznlogic> it does, there are a few big bugs in my version of the os, (2009.12a) that im hoping is solved in next version
[4:33] <MikeEvans> hmm - the foot-pad is missing off one of the stabilisers at the back and it doesn't seem to be kicking around in the box
[4:34] <frznlogic> but it rocks, and the crazy tank game... probably sold 10 tb's to friends etc on that game alone :)
[4:34] * Meiz_webirc would add the faster xorg to Mer build repositories
[4:34] <frznlogic> mike, odd... i have a missing footpad as well
[4:34] <ehamberg> i just got mine two days ago. the biggest problem is that i can't move the cursor to the screen edges, so i can't scroll in a fullscreen browser. can i recalibrate this somehow?
[4:34] <frznlogic> right side, sitting with it in my lap
[4:35] <MikeEvans> swap you @ frznlogic - mine is the other one
[4:35] <MikeEvans> seems like some stronger glue and improved quality control is needed there
[4:36] <frznlogic> i didnt notice it until today though, so it could possibly have dropped off somewhere at home
[4:36] <frznlogic> yeah, and more glue, its just a very tiny dot of glue
[4:36] <MikeEvans> I've literally just unwrapped mine so I know it was missing from the start
[4:37] <Meiz_webirc> All have dropped off here
[4:37] <MikeEvans> thought it would be floating around loose in the bag or box - but not so
[4:37] <frznlogic> ok, good to know so i dont spend days looking
[4:37] <Meiz_webirc> and the bottom is full of scratces but i don't care as long as the screen is not scratched :P
[4:37] <MikeEvans> crumbs - do i have to go down the gym to find someone strong enough to get the magnets apart :D
[4:37] <frznlogic> no scratches here
[4:38] <frznlogic> mike, i got them apart with a screwdriver
[4:38] <Meiz_webirc> haha
[4:38] <frznlogic> almost cut my fingers off while doing it,
[4:38] <dpb> the wiki has instructions for the magnets
[4:38] <MikeEvans> no scratches here either
[4:38] <frznlogic> :)
[4:39] <frznlogic> my magnets where too weak to hang the screen on fridge
[4:39] <frznlogic> and no scratches
[4:39] <MikeEvans> well I've managed to get it plugged in and charging so I guess that's the first initiative
[4:39] <MikeEvans> my fridge has a wooden door :(
[4:40] <frznlogic> then its not the magnets ;)
[4:40] <MikeEvans> I knew I must be doing something wrong!
[4:41] <Meiz_webirc> The magnets are so freaking strong i only had to put two of the three _inside_ the case and it held on my fridge. well.
[4:41] <frznlogic> has anyone tried upgrading 2009.12a to 2010.01a?
[4:41] <frznlogic> mmm, i think my fridge is an alloy or something... all magnets work badly on it
[4:44] <MikeEvans> ok - well it seems to have enough charge to do something already - hurrah - not sure I would be able to wait 6 hours
[4:44] <ehamberg> frznlogic: i did it without any problems.
[4:46] <frznlogic> odd, how long did it take? and does start->system->about tochbook say 2010.01 or old version for you?
[4:46] * _koen_1 (n=x0115699@nat/ti/x-kykfpzvozikmxjzi) has joined #touchbook
[4:47] * _koen_ (n=x0115699@nat/ti/x-diujmnslmwmlzndt) Quit (Remote closed the connection)
[4:47] <MikeEvans> well it's been plugged in since I joined the room
[4:47] <MikeEvans> so 15 mins or so
[4:48] <MikeEvans> and it says 2010.01a
[4:48] <ehamberg> frznlogic: i took out the sd card and did it from another linux machine (see the wiki) while i charged the batteries for the first time.
[4:48] <ehamberg> it says 2010
[4:48] <frznlogic> mine was online for 6-7 hours and didnt do anything, and rebooted, and now it says nothing to do when i run the script from shell it says "Nothing for the moment"
[4:49] <MikeEvans> that doesn't sound encouraging
[4:49] <frznlogic> erh bad english, sry, im a bit unused to us keyboards :)
[4:49] <frznlogic> guess ill reformat sd card in a linux system when i get home instead
[4:50] <MikeEvans> is this the SD card supplied?
[4:51] <frznlogic> yepp
[4:51] <ehamberg> you have to open the top cover
[4:51] <MikeEvans> perhaps it's not engaged correctly or something like that
[4:52] <frznlogic> system is booting up so should be no problem?
[4:52] <frznlogic> im actually writing this using the TB
[4:52] <MikeEvans> ah - I misunderstood you then - so when does it say "nothing for the moment"?
[4:53] <frznlogic> when i try to run the /usr/bin/ai/updater/check_update.sh script
[4:53] <MikeEvans> OK - now I understand
[4:54] <MikeEvans> I've not gone that far yet - but I think my version 2010.01a must be the most recent
[4:55] <MikeEvans> I think I remember reading that the updater will not work until the system comes out of beta
[4:55] <frznlogic> yupp, it should be, ah well, np, ill do it in a few hours when im home ;)
[4:55] <frznlogic> oh, didnt know that
[4:56] <MikeEvans> you can still get stuff from the repository, or download entire replacement versions - I can't see the reference on the FAQ or WIKI where I saw that but I'm sure I didn't make it up
[4:58] <MikeEvans> bravo - wireless network connects
[4:58] * _koen_1 (n=x0115699@nat/ti/x-kykfpzvozikmxjzi) Quit (Remote closed the connection)
[5:00] <frznlogic> :)
[5:01] <frznlogic> what crypto on the wifi?
[5:01] <MikeEvans> WEP only
[5:03] <frznlogic> using WPA here, WPA2 is a no-go though
[5:03] <MikeEvans> hmm - there are two holes between the USB and the AI button on the side - the lower one is the headphones symbol - I don' recognise the symbol on the upper one
[5:04] <MikeEvans> ah - I was thinking of changing our house to WPA - I'll take care to pick WPA and not WPA2 if I do then
[5:06] <frznlogic> line-in i think it is?
[5:07] <frznlogic> check the paper you got with the tb, it has a graphical guide to all buttons/connectors
[5:07] <MikeEvans> oh right - for a mic or something similar
[5:07] <frznlogic> yes
[5:07] <MikeEvans> thanks - that makes sense
[5:08] <MikeEvans> now I have to work out how to adjust the sensitivity of the touchpad - it's sooooo slooooow
[5:09] <frznlogic> check start->control panel->advanced->mouse
[5:09] <frznlogic> motion settings in first tab
[5:10] <frznlogic> pull acceleration up and keep threshold low (imho)
[5:10] <MikeEvans> yeah - just done that - didn't seem to make any difference
[5:10] <frznlogic> i think it did a little difference at least?
[5:11] <MikeEvans> still takes three sweeps of my finger across the pad to get the mouse from one side of the screen to the other
[5:11] <frznlogic> do the sweep faster?
[5:11] <MikeEvans> I remember having this issue on my laptop and had to put some stuff in the xorg.conf
[5:12] <MikeEvans> I think it's a bit better now - I put the threshold on absolute min
[5:14] <MikeEvans> yeah - that's better
[5:15] <MikeEvans> internet works - managed to find me via google at least (always a comforting feeling to know the world acknowledges your existence)
[5:16] <frznlogic> ;)
[5:18] <MikeEvans> I assume that both batteries will charge with the power connected to the keyboard input?
[5:18] <Meiz_webirc> yes
[5:18] <MikeEvans> good - thanks
[5:28] * Meiz_webirc (i=3ec5abe1@gateway/web/freenode/x-zzremshgduhknspp) Quit ("Page closed")
[5:30] <MikeEvans> so my initial experience with the tb has been pretty good - time to get some lunch and let it finish charging
[5:36] <frznlogic> gl will see you around;)
[5:40] <MikeEvans> likewise

[6:21] <GNUtoo> hi, if someone buys the touchbook and put angstrom or ubuntu,can he avoid the proprietary 3d driver?
[6:22] <mjr> to the best of my knowledge (not having the device myself), yes, but you then avoid any 3d acceleration as well
[6:23] <mjr> gotta run
[6:28] <GNUtoo> ok thanks a lot
[6:33] <viridior> morning all, Gentoo is coming along nicely

[9:54] -LoRez- [Global Notice] Again, for those that haven't been around, don't click the links that are being spammed into channels. You will turn your browser into several IRC drones and subsequently get yourself banned from the network. ChanOps, I suggest making use of the +r or +R chanmodes ( http://freenode.net/using_the_network.shtml ).
[9:59] <rpgresearch> Is there an equivalent to the touchpad settings for the touch screen settings? For example for touchpad/mouse > Start >Control Panel > Advanced Settings > Mouse. Is there anywhere to adjust the pressure settings for the touch screen (makes me very nervous how hard I have to press many times just to get it to respond, especially in tablet mode, not to mention hard to use having to push so hard). Thanks.
[10:02] <Sn0wman_Desk> I don't think there is one for pressure but there is the ts_calibrate (that you have to run as real root) for accuracy
[10:10] <rpgresearch> Sn0wman_Desk, yes, I'm familiar with the the ts_calibrate. but doesn't seem to make a difference for pressure (does it?). Is there a config file somewhere that could be manually edited then for the touchscreen settings, anyone know? thanks.
[10:11] <Sn0wman_Desk> I'm not sure about that. Haven't tried to edit the pressure settings
[10:14] <rpgresearch> Where would the config file be for the screen touch settings in general?
[10:14] <gregoiregentil> rpgresearch: there is no UI for the screen touch settings
[10:14] <gregoiregentil> there are two location to modify touch screen
[10:15] <gregoiregentil> - the ts.conf / pointercal file. It's something I've never really played with. Changing may help but probably not pressure
[10:16] <gregoiregentil> - the driver itself where there is probably more control over pressure. There are a few settings exposed by the driver
[10:16] * TomMD-Tb (n=ai@65-102-54-130.ptld.qwest.net) has joined #touchbook
[10:16] <gregoiregentil> the location is:
[10:16] * snlemons (n=snlemons@s9-4261.unh.edu) has joined #touchbook
[10:18] <gregoiregentil> cd /sys/class
[10:18] <gregoiregentil> find . -name debounce_max
[10:18] <gregoiregentil> there are three or four settings there
[10:24] * Gary13579 (n=Gary@69-92-42-230.cpe.cableone.net) Quit (K-lined)
[10:25] <Sn0wman_Desk> could you give an example file. the find didn't return anything
[10:25] <gregoiregentil> I'm reinstalling the Touch Book in front of me. I will have the location within minutes
[10:26] <Sn0wman_Desk> alright thanks
[10:32] <rpgresearch> Sn0wman_Desk, found in /sys/devices/platform/omap2_mcspi.4/spi4.0
[10:32] <rpgresearch> thanks gregoiregentil
[10:34] <gregoiregentil> I'm definitely interesting to get any feed-back that can help to improve touchscreen responsiveness
[10:34] <gregoiregentil> I think that there are really two places to investigate: driver (those three settings are an example of what can be done)
[10:34] <gregoiregentil> and the tslib libraries. Especially trying other modules
[10:35] <gregoiregentil> I will summarize the locations once my touch book has started

[20:53] <martinh_> so. my sister bought an acer aspire one and wants me to put linux on it (yay!). every time I dialog box comes up I touch the OK button. . .it doesn't work. *sigh*.
[20:57] <tommd> Acer Aspires are now touch screen systems?
[20:57] <tommd> huh
[21:00] <rpgresearch> gregoiregentil, I will definitely take a look at fiddilng with those settings, and logging the results. thanks!
[21:00] <gregoiregentil> yes. please
[21:01] <gregoiregentil> Some people already played with the driver settings but nobody managed to get something better
[21:01] <gregoiregentil> I'm not sure that it's possible to do better at kernel. The limitation at kernel level comes more from the hardware itself (meaning it's a resistive touchscreen)
[21:01] <gregoiregentil> but I think that tslib various modules might help.
[21:02] <gregoiregentil> Playing with ts.conf may be interesting. I read some threads on Google of people selecting other tslib modules and get better result for finger
[21:02] <gregoiregentil> also, note that with a stylus, the touchscreen is almost perfect. It's really with the finger that it's not optimal.
[21:02] <gregoiregentil> Some smart algorithms in the tslib module could help
[21:03] <rpgresearch> ok. I'll experiment with both tomorrow.
[21:03] <tommd> Oh, this is about your new touchscreen configurations? Could someone paste that link? I wasn't in chat on my laptop when it came up.
[21:03] <rpgresearch> heading to get my kids off to bed. cheers!
[21:03] <gregoiregentil> I've just updated the wiki
[21:03] <gregoiregentil> http://www.alwaysinnovating.com/wiki/index.php/Touchscreen_calibration
[21:03] <gregoiregentil> nothing new in the coming 2010-01.b image.
[21:05] <tommd> ok
[21:35] <gregoiregentil> interesting thread about touchscreen: http://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/1194
[21:39] <martinh_> tommd: now. they're not touch screens. that's why it doesn't work when I touch the OK button.
[21:39] * martinh_ is now known as martinh
[21:39] <tommd> lol, I see!
[21:41] <martinh> instead of progress. I get a lot of smudges on the screen. it's very annoying.
[21:45] <tommd> Well serves her right for not getting a TB
[21:45] <tommd> I've been really impressed by the progress of AI OS over the past three months.
[21:46] <martinh> yea. but, I wasn't going to be able to convince her of that. at least she did want linux on it.

[22:52] <gregoiregentil> viridior: you should take a look at my ubuntu build. Ideally, you should do the same for Gentoo. It's just customization to support the basic Touch Book features (rotation, sound, video...): http://git.alwaysinnovating.com/cgit.cgi/ai.ubuntu/tree/
[22:53] <gregoiregentil> I can help you with that. I have some good ebuild experience!
[22:54] <gregoiregentil> What would be awesome would be to share the Documents folder between the various OSes... Not difficult technically, super cool features, but could be quite a mess
