[MeeGo-dev] libglx.so for virtualbox

2010-10-28 Thread CSJ
Hi, all

In Meego wiki:

mentioned Download Libglx.so.gz http://wiki.meego.com/images/Libglx.so.gz
  Replace libglx.so for an X issue, this libglx.so will put glx version to
1.2, instead of 1.4.

is there any source code of this libglx.so?
Or say, where does this libglx.so com from?

Usually you wouldn't need to start it, it should be activated by D-Bus. The 
reason why it doesn't start is probably logged in either /tmp/signon_trace_file 
or ~/.signon/signon_trace_file (I should check where the log file is kept in MeeGo).

Re: [MeeGo-dev] Does Meego well support internationalization/localization?

2010-10-28 Thread Aleksander Morgado

 In Tracker we will be using ICU directly to support Chinese Pinyin
 collations. We'll be getting /meegotouch/i18n/lc_collate from gconf and
 pass it directly to libicu. This work is already on-going and will be
 available in the next 2-3 weeks (currently we're assuming en_US.utf8
 locale always in collation).
 
 Thanks for update. 
 For some app, locale is temporary changed, not saved to gconf. 
 
 Does tracker have interface to query with a given collation from input? 
 

Not right now. There's a branch which implements a COLLATE keyword in
SPARQL, but wasn't merged because we didn't find it useful at that time,
we preferred to have a single collation implicitly stated in the text
columns inside the database, as that would give us the proper orders
already in the indexes of the indexed properties. Anyway, if there are
real use cases of temporary locales applied in applications, or just
different locale needs for different collations, we may end up doing it.

 
 Tracker's FTS, if enabled in meego (which I'm not really sure 
 if it is),
 should already support it. We currently use libicu word-breaking
 algorithm to properly separate words during FTS parsing.
 
 FTS is enabled in MeeGo Tracker. But it uses glib as the default parser.
 I will submit a patch to enable libicu as default. 
 

Oh please, yes, enable libicu.

 BTW: For the input of tracker-search-tool, its length (g_utf8_strlen) must = 
 3.
 But the length of lots lots of Chinese words is 2. 
 
 Can we make it configurable for different languages?  
 

It actually should be configurable in the tracker-fts.cfg configuration
file, isn't it?
[Indexing]
# Set the minimum length of words to index (0-30, default=3)
MinWordLength=3

Oh, maybe you mean directly in the t-s-t text input? I'd suggest you
drop an email to tracker mailing list about this or fill a bug in
bugzilla. We're currently replacing t-s-t with a new tool called
needle, still not in the master branch.

Re: [MeeGo-dev] libglx.so for virtualbox

Hi CSJ,

You need to modify and build the Xorg code to get libglx.so.

The modification is in:
xserver/glx/glxdriswrast.c:__glXDRIscreenProbe,
change from 
screen-base.GLXmajor = 1;
screen-base.GLXminor = 4;
to 
screen-base.GLXmajor = 1;
screen-base.GLXminor = 2;

This is only for MeeGo 05-24 image. Currently the issue has been fixed and
clutter could be started up by software rendering, so for latest MeeGo netbook
image, you do not need this step any more. However, you still need to set the
suid for guest Xorg.

[MeeGo-dev] OBS, MeeGo and the social desktop : Application information, feedback and rating

2010-10-28 Thread David Greaves

This is more of an initial exploration than a concrete proposal :)

I'll post this to both the opensuse-buildserv...@opensuse.org and 
meego-dev@meego.com lists.


MeeGo is going to be using the Open Collaboration Services (OCS) API.
  http://www.socialdesktop.org/ocs/
  http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/open-collaboration-services

One of the features of this is to provide feedback and ratings from the 
device/desktop to the application development team.


MeeGo's community OBS will be used for developers to manage their applications 
and I was interested in the concept of using the OBS API to support this. The 
api already provides some rating services so it seems to fit in somewhere.


  https://api.obs.maemo.org/apidocs/#107

As I say, the use-case is something around providing feedback from the 
application launcher on the device; maybe an on-device popup that allows a star 
rating, comment etc that is linked back to the appropriate OBS package and team.


So does this fit with the intended usage around the 'rating' type services 
already in the OBS?


David

It seems like it combines two separate things:

- Application
- How/where it gets built

I'd rather see an entity separate from OBS as the starting point of a
rating/comment system. Applications built with any system would reside
there (including proprietary applications built in someones basement).

Not quite.
It requires that the installation of an application provides an optional 
OCS-compliant url for feedback.



I'd rather see an entity separate from OBS as the starting point of a
rating/comment system.
Why? I'm talking about making the OBS support a standard API, not the other way 
around. This idea would allow the OBS to be replaced as keeper of ratings but 
in the meantime may also allow us some efficiency in reducing the number of 
systems we have to develop and support.


The OBS already provides:
* PPA -like repos
* Extras-devel -like projects
* Extras -like projects
* per-package file storage (think screenshots)
* ratings system
* integration with MeeGo user account system

It doesn't provide a comment system.


Applications built with any system would reside
there (including proprietary applications built in someones basement).
This doesn't preclude that at all; provided the basement builder provides an OCS 
API somewhere.


MeeGo community does provide a community build system.. the OBS ... which, as 
you say, needs to support rating/feedback somehow. The OBS has a rating 
system... no-brainer (well, at least as a potential solution).

Hi,

due to ui changes, the categories in controlpanel are about to change
drastically in the next 0.9.0 version. We are planning to release this
version in a few days to staging. After it appeared, applet developers
will need to change the category where their applet belongs to in the
.desktop file of the applet the usual way:

[DCP]
Category=qtn_sett_main_personalize

As usual, applets which specify itself being in an unknown category (in
the old categories) will appear in the Applications category.

Applet developers are encouraged to use the id of the category,
allthough the category name is also working. You can find the new
category ids, names, and brief descriptions in the attached .txt

No, just no. This is an open project. You cannot just say that you
will open them up (basically) when you feel like doing it and then
furthermore say that more bugs will happen like this - closed off from
the open.

You need to be presenting a darn good reason why bugs are not being
shown to everyone. This is not Nokia where things are closed first,
opened on a case-by-case basis. This is an open project, where things
should be open unless there are extreme circumstances and reasoning
that would allow that bug to be closed (eg. major security bug).

Even if there are closed off bugs, there should be a process in order
to be able to view these bugs. People are trying to do the best job
they can within the MeeGo project, without them getting access to
these bugs, they will get blamed for it being missed out on - but they
can't even view it! It is hindering their progress.

Now you mention that more unexplained closed off bugs will come. Unacceptable.

Seriously, sometimes I need to slap myself across the face a couple of
times to remember whether this is an open project or a marketing
scheme with Nokia and Intel puppeteers. But then I remember it is an
open project, with a lot of people acting in the manner they should
but it seems like not everyone has crossed the bridge yet to realizing

[MeeGo-dev] Multi-point touch and gestures plan for MeeGo 1.2 1.3

2010-10-28 Thread Thiago Macieira
Hello all

This week, I met with James Ketrenos from Intel and some Canonical developers 
at their summit and we discussed how we should approach the subject of 
standardising touch and gestures events in the Linux / X11 world.

Premises:

1) MeeGo 1.2 does not want to upgrade to X.org 1.10

2) X.org maintainers have said that they do not want to rush the feature and 
they would most likely not accept it even if it were ready and tested by 
December 1st this year.

With that in mind, we propose that MeeGo 1.2 implements a temporary solution 
based on the existing XInput 2.0 work that Nokia has done for Harmattan.

Details:

MeeGo 1.2:


Use the mtev X.org driver from Nokia

Apply the matching XInput 2.0 patch on Qt to deliver QTouchEvents and thus 
enable the gesture recogniser.

Do not use the solutions being developed by Ubuntu at this time (geis, grail, 
utouch).

System-level gestures will be implemented in a platform-specific way (using 
XInput 2 facilities not designed for this purpose), by making the Window 
Manager use passive X grabs on the XInput 2 events and transforming them into 
active grabs when the gesture is detected.

Qt will consider re-developing the XInput 2.0 complete-mouse-system-rewrite 
patch and make it smaller, given the direction that XInput 2.1 is going. This 
should reduce the maintenance load. James has a patch for this already and Qt 
developers will analyse.

If the grab mechanism doesn't work in XInput 2.0, the mtev driver should be 
modified to deliver the events first to the WM via some out-of-band 
communication mechanism.

No API compatibility is guaranteed at this point beyond Qt's existing API 
(QTouchEvent, the gesture system). The configuration of system gestures and the 
details of XEvent protocol for multiple points in a touch are not guaranteed 
API or ABI stability. More strongly: it will break, so applications can *only* 
use Qt's API, if they want to transition to MeeGo 1.3 without rewrite.


MeeGo 1.3:


For MeeGo 1.3, we must upgrade to X.org 1.11, to be released around August / 
2011.

This release should include the touch and gestures standardised subsystem in 
X, developed in close cooperation with Canonical and other partners.

XInput 2.1 will be the method of delivery of touch events in X11. The 
recognition of common gestures (global configuration of gestures that all 
applications react to) will be provided by a separate library that is fed 
events and provides reactions similar to Qt's gesture system.

System-wide gestures will probably use passive grabs using XInput 2.1.

There is actually no simple and straightforward answer to any system
supporting Digital Video Broadcasting because it is a multilayer
architecture.

DVB uses MPEG-2 Transport Streams (MP2TS) as defined by ISO/IEC 13818-1
Systems with DVB-specific Service Information (SI) as specified in ETSI EN
300 468.

For transmission these streams are modulated onto a bearer. What the bearer
is depends on the transmission system. Hence, DVB specifies multiple
standards: DVB-S and DVB-S2 for satellite transmission, DVB-SH for satellite
transmission to handhelds, DVB-C and DVB-C2 for cable transmission, DVB-T
and DVB-T2 for terrestrial transmission, and DVB-H for terrestrial
transmission to handhelds. The standards use different modulation and
modulation schemes such as QAM, PSK, QPSK, APSK, etc. Most recently
DVB-compliant MP2TS are also used in IPTV and there the transmission is an
IP network using UDP unicast/multicast and/or TCP dependent on the
application. Sometimes for IPTV the streams are RTP-encapsulated and may
also use Quality of Experience (QE) technologies such as Cisco's VQE or
Alcatel-Lucent's FCC/RET.

Here starts the first layer of the problem. Dependent on how your MeeGo
system will receive the DVB MP2TS you will need hardware to do the
demodulation. For that you will obviously a driver, typically a character
device driver as kernel module. If your system receives the stream via IP
you are all set.

Once you got to MP2TS you will have to demultiplex it. MeeGo uses gstreamer
and one of the container formats it supports is MP2TS. After that the
elementary streams need to be decoded. Most importantly video and audio and
for that gsteamer supports a variety of codecs. If you need to be able to
decode the SI for EPG etc. in the DVB MP2TS then you will probably need a
plugin for gstreamer to decode it.

DVB television programs may be encrypted with a CA system. That adds another
layer of complexity since you wont be able to decode the elementary streams
unless they are decrypted. DVB systems mostly use transport scrambling
control meaning the payload of the MP2TS packets is encrypted. What packets
are encrypted is indicated by the 2 TSC (transport scrambling control) bits
in the MP2TS header.

Best regards,
Rudi

There are a number of bugs in the MeeGo Bugzilla that are restricted
specifically to the security group.  They remain closed to only the security
group, the bug submitter and the cc list until a fix for the security issue
is available.  Once a fix is available, the bug is made public.  The reason
for this is that until a fix is in place, the bug is essentially a map on
how to exploit a MeeGo system.  We also have commitments to keep certain
bugs embargoed until a fix is available for the majority of Linux
distributions.

While I strongly appreciate the need for access of information in an open
project like this (and I try to error on the side of the community), this is
also best practices as followed by all the leading Linux distributions.

If anyone here feels that they need access to a specific security related
bug, please send me an email and I will evaluate and see what we can do.

Thanks,

Thanks for the understanding on security issues.  I know that this
discussion wasn't really kicked off because of a bug with security concerns,
but I wanted to put my position on that out to the community because it was
subsequently brought up.  I also agree that if there is not a good reason
that is broadly accepted by the community as to why a bug or class of bugs
is closed to the community, there is a significant issue that needs to be

if you are from intel, I wounder why you haven´t minituarized that chip already.
That is why politicians say to buy japanese instead of german, because

Maybe Intel, the MOTHER of small chips, does not know how gigabyte

Honey, this is the REAL link between Nokia and Intel, you should

I am afraid we are losing the focus in regards to Vijay's original question.
Vijay did not say for what type of device he is looking for DVB support from
MeeGo.

Digital television, DVB-T and ATSC, requires different antennae then analog
TV for UHF/VHF. For those the aerials had to be pointed to the transmitter.
For DTV that is typically not necessary. It is possible to receive the
signals with simple rabbit ears even from inside a home. However, that is
as usual dependent on environmental and other factors.

geoclue is the reference back end. Geoclue however is not a manadatory 
component.
It's very likely that some commercial implementations of MeeGo will have 
their own custom back end,
especially to tie into location services (maps etc) that service 
providers provide for a fee.
