Macerso is there a clear cut way to install mer/active onto a tf101 yet?02:00
Macerseems not02:03
Macerno infomation anywhere about it at least on bing02:03
faenildon't think so Macer :/02:06
faenilthough you should ask Stskeeps when he's active ;) i.e. in 4-5 hours02:06
RaYmAnhow clear cut does it have to be? basic bringup with fbdev should be trivial. Getting accelerated drivers up is another matter02:07
*** FSCV has joined #mer02:09
MacerRaYmAn: clear cut is running "install.sh" and it installs on your tf10102:11
Macer:-P02:12
RaYmAnboring :P02:12
Macerrealistic02:12
Macerthat type of ease of install would bring end users to the project... something which it does not have02:12
* Macer is wondering if other than a pc and a few very niche tablets if mer even runs on anything02:16
specialn9/n900/n95002:17
Macerlol....02:18
* Macer points at the word niche02:18
Macerthere are probably like 500 n900s left.. nobody has an n95002:18
MacerN9 ... maybe.. but that is still rather niche02:18
*** arcean has quit IRC02:19
Macerand active (which is probably the only valid ui for a tablet) has a 10 line section on "installing on arm systems"02:19
Macerhttp://community.kde.org/Plasma/Active/Installation#Install_Plasma_Active_on_ARM_Systems02:19
specialyou might be interested in libhybris02:20
Macerpersonally i'm interested in anything that works on a tablet tht isn't android, windows, or ios02:21
Macersomething that still doesn't seem viable yet02:21
Macerunless it is some knockoff chinese tablet that is awful02:21
RaYmAntegra2 actually does have vaguely viable native x11 driver02:21
MacerRaYmAn: yeah but i've yet to see any tablet easily run mer as an alternative with any ui :)02:22
Macerso the question has to be asked... what is going on with the mer project? who would want to run mer on a PC?02:22
Macerthe focus i'm sure is "mobile devices" but there are few if any that can actually run it02:23
RaYmAnIt kind of seems like you've misunderstood what mer is02:23
Macernot really02:28
Macerit is a mobile/embedded base02:28
Macermeant to be a beginning point for starting a mobile platform02:28
RaYmAnexactly.02:30
*** lpotter has joined #mer02:37

Macerlol03:03
Macerpoint is... nobody or nothing uses it because there isnt any hardware for it :-)03:04

*** DocScrutinizer05 has quit IRC04:04
Macerwmarone: no. not really. being honest. there is a difference.04:04
*** DocScrutinizer05 has joined #mer04:04
wmaroneMacer: considering you aren't in here much I would be skeptical of your knowledge04:04
Macerbe as skeptical as you want. but. you can ask yourself a simple question. what hardware... runs mer.04:05
wmaroneAlso, suggesting that there has to be hardware "for" something like Mer or it is unsuccessful is to completely miss the point04:05
* Macer facepalm04:05
Macerthen what purpose would it serve? educational purposes only?04:06
wmaroneto be adapted to platform vendors that have hardware but need an OS04:06
wmaronebut unlike Android, Mer is not public-facing branding04:06
* Macer points up to the question... what platform is running mer?04:06
wmaroneMacer: why are you in here?04:06
Macerto see if there has been progress in implementing mer onto any type of mainstream or existing hardware.. i check back every few months or so04:07
wmaroneso you aren't in here for any constructive purpose04:07
Macerpointing out the fact there is a lack of progress is very constructive04:08
wmaroneof course, any "mainstream" adaptation likely would not be discussed in here04:08
wmaronesince that's vendor-specific04:08
Macerif you say so. if the mer project can get it running with collaboration with say.. plasma active... and show that it is a viable platform then it might gain traction04:08
wmaroneunfortunately, other than Jolla using Mer we have no evidence either way04:09
Macerthe problem is vendors already have drawn their lines04:10
Macerthe only hope for mer is to find something where they can either get closed blobs or manage to implement it on hardware which is open04:10
*** b128 has quit IRC04:10
Macerneither of which seems even remotely possible04:10
wmaroneMacer: that's not Mer's responsibility04:10
* Macer facepalms again04:11
Macerso you're expectin.. some random vendor to pop up.. and use mer for their base without promoting it whatsoever in order to show that it can work? :)04:11
Macerexpecting04:11
wmaroneMacer: well if you go beyond the world of handsets and tablets, sure, why not.04:11
Maceruhm. brain implants?04:12
wmaroneMacer: get the fuck out04:12
Maceri was joking.04:12
wmaroneno you're trolling, have been since you came in04:13
wmaroneand I'm foolish enough to feed the troll04:13
Macerwhy is it when someone tries to point out a shortcoming it is automatically trolling04:13
Macermy points is there is nothing really mainstream that people can see using mer04:13
wmaroneMacer: because you are arguing while it's plainly obvious you don't understand what Mer was designed for04:14
Macerwith mer/active probably being hte best possible solution for a nice alternative to what is  readily available04:14
Macerbut no real push to actually.. make it work on something :)04:14
wmaroneMer works on many things, albeit unofficially.04:15
* Macer stares at the mer website04:16
Macermaybe you should put down what it runs on and how to run it.. maybe that might be a good starts so  you can have people actually ... you know.. using it04:17
wmaronemost people don't need to worry about Mer04:17
wmaroneit's not an end-user product04:17
Macerthey do if they want to make a platform for others04:17
Maceryou will not find a vendor in existance that will stray from android, ios, or win8 without seeing something viable04:17
Macersomething that has yet to be done with something using mer as a base04:18
wmaroneyour myopia is saddening04:18
wmaroneyou can't think beyond tablets or handsets04:18
Macerwhat else is there? medical equipment? PCs (which already have very viable and stronger OSes already) ?04:18
Macercar dashboards?04:18
wmaroneset top boxes, kiosks, in car, numerous embedded uses04:19
Macerall of which either use proprietary stuff or something that is already mainstream and shown to work04:19
wmaroneMacer: you'd think it was proprietary, a lot of it uses Linux as it is04:19
Macersure. and of all the embedded platforms i can't think of any that use mer. is there a mer based pi distro?04:20
wmaroneso why build an entire Linux core in house when you can adopt one that exists, complete with everything you need for your UI04:20
wmaroneThere are Pi builds yes04:20
Macerwhere?04:20
wmaronehttp://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt-RaspberryPi04:21
wmaroneMacer: now then, I'm growing tired of your unproductive, sad excuse of a "constructive argument"04:22
Macermost fat people stay fat because nobody tells them they are obease04:23
Macerridicule is a good motivator04:24
Macersorry if you are angry but the mer project has been around for quite a while and i am waiting to see something productive for an end user that uses it as a base and i have yet to see anything nor has there been a major push to get it running on existing mainstream hardware (yes.. those phones and tablets you seem to not think are important)04:26
Maceralbeit... unofficially04:26
*** furikku has joined #mer04:28
Maceri remember seeing mer running active running on a tf101 on a youtube video months ago.. you would think this would have been a huge deal and a very important step.. but both projects simply disregarded it04:28
Macerhaving people able to install it on the tf101 would have shown that people can actually use mer as a base and active as a ui on a good piece of hardware ... at the very least it would show promise. anyways. i'll check back in 6 months or so again :) good luck.04:29

* lpotter fires up mer on his n900 just because04:44

kulvewith what?13:24
*** ilink_sycbase has quit IRC13:24
Stskeepsthere's this idea of a 'statefs' thing, a bit loosely defined at the moment, but the impact is filesystem based access to some typical state things, potentially sensors too13:25
Stskeepswhere it's easy to write plugins for.. it's also a replacement for contextkit13:25
