Situation is when lot of map tiles are loaded.


"loaded" as in "downloaded"?
About the number of tiles loaded into memory, mappero uses a tile cache, which 
is actually quite big (140 tiles, and tiles are textures sized 256x256 pixels) 
so it may consume quite a bit of memory. But in my case, according to "top" the 
RSS is about 21MB, which doesn't seem so scary.


I dont't know what 
internaly happens. Some memory leak ? For application performance and 
cpu usage also time needed for tile pre-processing need to be counted.


I doubt there are any substantial memory leaks, I've been using mappero for 
several hours without breaks, and didn't notice any worsening.



Does it some scaling for tiles after loading them ?


No, it does only if the tile of the needed size is missing. But that's something 
you can notice quite easily, because it's quite evident when the pixels are 
being doubled.


Finally time used for scaling tiles is one key issues. Do we scale them 
or download every size. How much cpu power is used for scaling or do we 
leave it all for GPU ?


Every size is downloaded. Scaling happens rarely, and it is done on the CPU; but 
after scaling the texture is stored into the GPU and reused, so the performance 
hit is minimal.


For mappero case i don't know how much cpu is used for actual scaling 
and how much by exhausting virtual memory ?


I'm not sure about virtual memory, but about CPU mappero will never use more 
than 30-35% -- it simply isn't allowed by the OS (startup times could be much 
faster if it were...).


Ciao,

The main concern is about scaling has to be done *only once* and NOT for every 
refresh of the display. Depending on how ignorant the widget is coded, you 
might end with a redraw() triggered for every visible tile of the map, if the 
map content is only shifted aside by a few pixels. Then each tile object does 
all the scaling again, and that's for sure not the optimum way to implement 
that.
Displaying a minimal change of the map, quite usually this means moving the 
bitmap by a few pixels and adding a few new pixels to the canvas at one side, 
this is definitely a completely different thing than drawing a new map from 
scratch which should be avoided as much as possible, for obvious performance 
considerations.

Or simply put: if you got CPU load issues on displaying a slowly and minimally 
changing map, then you did something terribly wrong.

RE: How to get kinetic scrolling working using Qt creator

[Sudheer K .]

Hi Daniil,

But I feel at this point we have spent too much time for a non-critical issue 
such as this. Right now I am using tabs to organize the form fields and I will 
continue to use it. Scrolling would have been nice but is not absolutely 
necessary. 

Thank you for staying with this thread and continuously responding to my 
questions.

Qt Mobility Contacts - bugs?

[Felipe Crochik]

I believe I found one bug with the Qt Mobility Contacts but it seems that
the bugreports.qt.nokia.com web site is out and because I can only verify it
on the n900 I decide to report it here, at least to start with.

The following code will add a new contact but this new contact will not be
available on the standard contacts application. I verified that it gets
saved "somewhere" because if you quit the application and start again you
can find the contact using the "id" generated the first time. The "standard
contacts" application still reports the same number of contacts before
running this code and I can't find the contact on the list.


QContactManager manager;
QContact contact;
QContactName name;
name.setFirstName("John");
name.setLastName("Doe");
contact.saveDetail(&name);
manager.saveContact(&contact);
qDebug() << "localid: " << contact.localId();


Has anybody tried modifying the database on the n900 using the qt mobility?
Am I missing something or is it really a bug?

Re: Removing packages from Fremantle extras-devel

[Francesco Baldassarri]

Thanks Felipe,
but the problem is python-dtn... this package is malfuctional and have only an 
old version (version 7, not an upgrated version)...
python-dtn must be deleted from Fremantle extras-devel repository for major 
security...

Francesco,

 

You don't have to worry if you have already published a new version of the
same package. Anybody trying to install it will install the latest
automatically.

Subject: Removing packages from Fremantle extras-devel

 

Hi guys,

I'm looking for a procedure to remove packages uploaded in extras-devel. I
read that there isn't actually a real way to do this and it can be operated
only manually for us by maemo.org admin.

 

Can someone help me to remove sources that I had uploaded friday in
Fremantle extras-devel and related autobuilded packages?

 

The name of source is dtn_2.7.0maemo-fremantle7
(https://garage.maemo.org/builder/fremantle/dtn_2.7.0maemo-fremantle7/) and
the packages to remove are:

 

dtn_2.7.0maemo-fremantle7_i386.deb
 

dtn_2.7.0maemo-fremantle7_armel.deb
 

python-dtn_2.7.0maemo-fremantle7_all.deb
 

 

I have just uploaded a new version of my dtn implementation (version 8) that
works correctly.

The real problem is python-dtn
  that dosn't work properly and I remove it
from version 8 compilation.

python-dtn so I do not want to appear in packages list.

 

Thanks in advantages!

X server / RECORD extension problem (Xnee)

[Henrik Sandklef]

hi,

 just compiled and tested GNU Xnee* on Maemo. Replaying key/mouse 
events (Key Press/Release, Motion, Button Press/Release) worked fine. 
When it comes to recording I don't get any data although RECORD 
extension is there in the X server.


 Does anyone know if there's anything strange with RECORD extension in 
Maemo's X server?


/hesa

SW info:
-
Xnee:  3.06 (tweaked for Maemo)
X:  Nokia / 10699001
N900: 10.2010.19-1


*) a tool to record and replay user sessions under X11

Situation is when lot of map tiles are loaded. I dont't know what internaly 
happens. Some memory leak ? For application performance and cpu usage also time 
needed for tile pre-processing need to be counted.

Does it some scaling for tiles after loading them ?

Finally time used for scaling tiles is one key issues. Do we scale them or 
download every size. How much cpu power is used for scaling or do we leave it 
all for GPU ?

For mappero case i don't know how much cpu is used for actual scaling and how 
much by exhausting virtual memory ?

I think, without any actual debug or analysis that it consumes all virtual 
memory and there won't be any memory for system UI even kill application when 
everything is swapped out.

I've been told that this happens when downloading large amounts of map tiles, so 
it has nothing to do with the map widget itself. That one is based on clutter, 
and seems to be quite efficient.

In most cases GPU will do same things more power efficient but it also offers 
better user experience doing things faster. Maybe best choice would be vectro 
based maps ang GPU going transformations and drawing.

I don't know hat mappero (ex maemo mapper) does internaly but least, it can eat 
all cpu power when doing "processing maps" so that only way out is remove 
battery from device.

I think that user experience is also most important thing. In many cases doing 
things fast makes good responsive user experience but also reduces battery 
consumption when application can be idle most of time. Using GPU we can get 
good user experience and battery life same time. Qt3d is worh of checking for 
portable GPU library.

Hi,

It's rather moot, as this isn't a movie at 25fps, so an occasional image

(or the widget invisible/hidden/background) then of course all gfx workload 
should suspend, for obvious reasons


100% CPU load is bad no matter if this is for a 25fps movie or a 0.5fps 3d map
widget. Believe me, i have these discussions regarding maep. People _do_ care
for CPU load and battery consumption. And this is good.


I believe the point is not that battery life is unimportant, but that 
with the backlight on, the CPU using 200% of nominal for 2/25th of the 
time, this increases the total CPU power by 8%.


But - using numbers from 
http://wiki.maemo.org/N900_Hardware_Power_Consumption - with the screen 
on dim, and the GPS on, this 8% drops to 4% of total system load. - with 
the backlight on bright, it's only an increase of 2.5% or so.


The main point I was attempting to make was not this one anyway.

It was that while 3D may be possible on platforms similar to the n900, 
it is undesirable, even if it performs perfectly, if the widget may also 
be wanted to run on the increasing number of low end phones that may 
have limited or no 3D capability.


(Unless of course it can also do 2D optimally - but that seems like lots 
more code/work.)

Re: QT map widget

[Sampo Savola]

Hey

When I started to write eCoach in Qt I had to search for existing 
mapwidget in Qt. I came to result that QMapControl is the best current 
solution. I tried also marble but i think it is an overkill for a device 
like N900.


I suggest that the QMapControl could be the basis for the new Qt mapwidget.
I have contacted the original author of the widget but he seems to be 
not so interested maintaining/developing the widget anymore.


Current issues i noticed with the QMapControl on Maemo:

- Slow tile rendering and panning
- Tile caching makes it even slower
- No good way to draw route on realtime
- Google maps not working

I dont think that we need to write whole thing from the scratch, mostly 
QMapControl needs only optimization and of course better solution for 
live route drawing.


- There is also support for common maptile servers and for example 
support for finnish topomaps should work out of the box with existing 
OSM maptile plugin if the funny authentication for topomaps server will 
be implemented.
