03:38.16 | prpplague | TomW: did you know asimov is the _only_ author in history to write a book in every section of the dewey decimal system |
03:38.41 | TomW | prpplague: then when Issiac wrote "Foundation & Earth" and tied the Robot series and Foundation together, I had thought the he went the way of heinlien, but Issac pulled it off very well! |

03:41.53 | prpplague | chouimat: that and enders series |
03:41.58 | chouimat | prpplague: Dune House serie: Dune: House Atreides, Dune: House Harkonnen, Dune: House Corrino about youg Leto, Shaddam and Vladimir |
03:42.18 | sorphin | TomW: i guess.. too bad i couldn't care less about the frank herbert dune crap |
03:42.24 | prpplague | chouimat: i'm a tolkien fan, i have alot of unpublished material |
03:42.24 | TomW | prpplague: putting a date on my age: the Tolkien trilogy was my impressionable read when I was 13. |
03:42.53 | chouimat | prpplague: and Butlerian Jihad is about the war against thinking machine 10 000 ago (in dune) |
03:42.53 | prpplague | TomW: i remember a particular incident with my parents |
03:43.15 | TomW | prpplague: they thought you were reading crap, right? |
03:43.21 | chouimat | TomW: any Heechees books? |
03:43.26 | sorphin | prpplague: they caught you looking at a catalog w/ models in lingere showing off POS equipment? :P |
03:43.27 | prpplague | TomW: i was about 12 and going through all of the usually places looking for change to go to the bookstore |
03:43.49 | prpplague | TomW: my parents asked me what i was doing, so i told them |
03:43.53 | TomW | TomW: Oh yeah! Who wrote that HeeChee stuff? I don't recall but it was good! |
03:44.23 | chouimat | TomW: Federick Pohl |
03:44.28 | TomW | ahhh! |
03:44.51 | chouimat | prpplague: I have all the John Norman Counter-Earth :) |
03:44.52 | TomW | I'll have to revisit Pohl to see what is on the racks from him again. |
03:45.00 | prpplague | TomW: this strange look came over their faces, and my father said, "as long as i can get out of bed, you will never have to worry about buying a book, you tell us what you need and we will take you to the bookstore" |
03:45.30 | TomW | prpplague: good thing, or bad thing? |
03:45.37 | prpplague | TomW: good things |
03:45.39 | prpplague | TomW: good thing |
03:46.10 | prpplague | TomW: all i had to do is ask, and they'd buy it |
03:46.12 | TomW | prpplague: cool, I lived quite a ways from town so I didn't have access to a "real" bookstore when I was growing up. |
03:46.34 | prpplague | TomW: still brings tears to my eyes, i tell my son the same thing |
03:46.57 | chouimat | prpplague: my father is becoming a lot like my grand-fater was this day ... I recall that my grand father had 1000 of books about the WWII and my father begin to read about Churchil, Hitler and so one 3 years ago ... |
03:47.01 | TomW | prpplague: actually, the only thing I really had was the local school library and the books that it contained were carefully considered by the school staff. |
03:47.54 | TomW | heechees... |
03:48.05 | TomW | with their "fans" |
03:48.09 | prpplague | TomW: its funny, my father grew up dirt poor, went to school got a degree and developed a bunch of oil field equipment |
03:48.31 | prpplague | TomW: man, the library sure brings memories back to me |
03:48.43 | chouimat | TomW: I have all the books in the heechees serie |
03:49.50 | TomW | chouimat: I have been starting to collect books again. I have all of Ann MacCaffery's Dragonriders of Pern series. Plus a whole lot of Tom Clancy. |
03:50.27 | prpplague | TomW: i have them on audio tape |
03:50.41 | prpplague | TomW: i;ve been planning on rippin them to mp3 for the car |
03:50.42 | chouimat | TomW: I have all the moorcock elric, hawkmoon, von beck, quorum and all Shatner Startrek books and tekwar |
03:50.55 | prpplague | chouimat: tekwar is good |
03:51.09 | chouimat | wait I'm missing one ... |
03:51.10 | prpplague | chouimat: i was really surprise at shatners work on that |
03:51.20 | chouimat | prpplague: yup I improved my english alot with that :) |
03:51.28 | TomW | chouimat: :) |
03:52.00 | chouimat | i'm currently missing tekkill |
03:52.33 | prpplague | chouimat: lol, i could use a little tek about now.... |
03:53.34 | TomW | I'll make some woman a good wife... |
03:53.47 | chouimat | prpplague: that remembered me of the last english class I got : advandced english (the teacher decided that we were studying slang that year) |
03:53.54 | sorphin | TomW: or bitch |
03:54.10 | TomW | heh |
03:56.03 | TomW | You know, I know that they (adobe, etc) would like us to accept digital books (tablets), but there is nothing like huddling down an turning pages. |
03:56.53 | chouimat | TomW: yup I got about 1500 ebooks from kazaa and once in awhile I'm printing one |
03:57.29 | TomW | chouimat: I didn't know that you could get books via p2p |
03:58.15 | chouimat | TomW: yup you can just type ebook or the name of the author ... got jordan wheels of time compendium in pdf format |
03:59.13 | TomW | I've got to peel potatoes, bbl |
03:59.22 | chouimat | ok it's time for me to watch Lexx on tv |
04:00.33 | chouimat | and I also like Xinerama |
04:03.17 | prpplague | ok, is does anyone else find major carter on sg-1 attrative? |

04:14.13 | sorphin | prpplague: that too |
04:14.33 | prpplague | sorphin: naw, the women i met in the army were pretty awesome, albeit not that good looking |
04:14.41 | chouimat | prpplague: too much muscles on a chick turn me down |
04:15.17 | prpplague | 1k calories and drinking beer sure makes a six pack go a looooong way |
04:15.26 | kergoth | prpplague: lol |
04:15.29 | prpplague | i've had 3 beers and i'm about to pass out |
04:15.42 | kergoth | I've been drinking a LOT of alcohol, AND a lot of soda lately |
04:15.44 | prpplague | of course it belgian so thats a + |
04:15.53 | kergoth | thats like an assload of useless calories |
04:16.05 | prpplague | kergoth: slimfast |
04:16.44 | kergoth | is that stuff any good? |
04:16.45 | chouimat | prpplague: nah that taste like shit |
04:16.52 | kergoth | I need a drink with low calories, but tastes alright |
04:16.56 | kergoth | heh |
04:17.01 | chouimat | kergoth: WATER |
04:17.06 | kergoth | juice isnt much better than soda w/ regard to calories |
04:17.07 | sorphin | kergoth: wussy |
04:17.35 | chouimat | kergoth: if you take beers stop eating pasta and bread |
04:19.15 | kergoth | I've been eating a lot of chicken and soups lately |

05:26.09 | TomW_food | Torkbur: ? hello |
05:27.34 | Torkbur | Hi TomW |
05:28.27 | Torkbur | been playing around with your webpal build-root |
05:28.32 | TomW | k |
05:28.54 | TomW | I hadn't given the cramfs storage problem any though. |
05:29.06 | Torkbur | got to the point in linuxrc where I pivot-root over to my NFS rootfs |
05:29.34 | TomW | what I'd been trying to deal with is installing debian packages and getting the darned thing to stop with the "dereference to zero" error. |
05:29.40 | Torkbur | OK, looks like even after I umount /mnt/initrc the kernel wants |
05:29.46 | Torkbur | to hang on to the memory |
05:29.55 | chouimat|Zzz | night |
05:30.01 | TomW | chouimat|Zzz: later |
05:30.49 | TomW | Yeah, I wouldn't doubt it. Like I said, I didn't consider it as an issue as the amount of memory is so small, comparitively. |
05:30.50 | Torkbur | I think I could use the util-linux "blockdev" but the arm potato dist doesn't have this |
05:31.37 | Torkbur | Tnx for providing the build-root though, this has opened up some new possiblities for me |
05:32.01 | chouimat|Zzz | TomW: bye |
05:32.11 | TomW | I have one of the CLPS-7500FE evb boards here. I left the webpal alone and am in the process of getting linux installed on the EVB. |
05:32.44 | TomW | I don't know if the problem is with debian or a design problem in the webpal... |
05:32.53 | Torkbur | Ya, I saw your comment on the linux-hacker site. It will be interesting to see if you get the same segfault problems |
05:33.26 | TomW | np, I just didn't like the state of affairs with people swapping patch files around and no coherent sources. It almost smacked of elitist behavior. |
05:34.05 | chouimat|Zzz | TomW: that the hacker way of thing ..... :) |
05:34.35 | TomW | chouimat|Zzz: stinks |
05:34.45 | Torkbur | TomW, where'd you get the CLPS-7500FE eval brd? |
05:34.54 | chouimat|Zzz | TomW: I know but ... |
05:34.56 | TomW | chouimat|Zzz: I like the "developer way" of doing things, you get more accomplished that way. |
05:35.13 | TomW | Torkbur: purchased it about 2 years ago. |
05:35.40 | Torkbur | I looked around for one myself but couldn't locate a source |
05:36.15 | TomW | Torkbur: didn't have time to really work with it so I put it aside. Lately I have been considering doing a new desing using the 7500FE chip and then saw the webpal being sold, so I grabbed three of them. |
05:36.57 | TomW | Torkbur: I sold "mytoys.com" for $50K in 2000, then spent some money on the EVB ($1K) |
05:37.58 | Torkbur | WOW, $1K!!! I paid $15 for my webpal |
05:38.04 | TomW | I guess that I was one of the few to profit from the dot.com boom. |
05:38.13 | TomW | ? |
05:38.57 | TomW | no, sorry, I paid $13 for my webpals, I was referring to how I came about to purchase the CLPS-7500FE EVB. |
05:39.08 | Torkbur | I lost $30K investing in the .com's |
05:39.38 | Torkbur | Actually I was suprised at the price of the eval board |
05:40.01 | TomW | I went looking for an EVB for the CL-7212 a year ago, they wanted $4K for the damned thing! |
05:40.46 | TomW | Actually, it was the CL-7312 that I wanted. I cried on the Tech Rep's shoulder about pricing the small developer out of the market. |
05:41.06 | TomW | he then "loaned" me a CL-7212 EVB, it is on "permanent loan". |
05:41.20 | Torkbur | You must of had a design in mind |
05:41.28 | TomW | only diff is that the 7312 is SDRAM & the 7212 is EDO. |
05:41.57 | TomW | still do, the 7312 looks really good, but it's lcd controller sux. |
05:42.19 | TomW | the 7500 has a great lcd controller, but the RAM & MIPS sux. |
05:42.29 | TomW | :( |
05:42.46 | Torkbur | does your 7500 eval use VRAM or DRAM for video? |
05:43.49 | TomW | StrongARM is the best: MIPS + SDRAM + LCD controller, but it is uBGA. My intended customer for the design is low volume (< 200 units per year) and they'll never go for the BGA stuff ($$$). |
05:44.10 | TomW | DRAM, I think. Let me check... |
05:45.21 | Torkbur | The DRAM definately slows the 7500 down, sharing bus cycles |
05:45.44 | Torkbur | or I shoudl say stealing bus cycles |
05:46.19 | TomW | looks like it is in the DRAM. |
05:46.43 | Torkbur | NE way, gotta run off to Zzz land, good to touch base with you TomW, will be sticking around this channel |
05:47.19 | TomW | I'm usually here, most times.. Good ARM embedded people here |

06:34.35 | kergoth | better make sure i didnt leave anything out |
06:35.17 | fontenot | kergoth: I think I found out why glibc 2.3.2 would not build for me |
06:35.23 | kergoth | fontenot: whys that? |
06:35.35 | fontenot | kergoth: when you build gcc, do you use --disable-shared ? |
06:36.07 | kergoth | fontenot: in the gcc first pass yes, in the gcc second pass, no. |
06:36.23 | fontenot | damn then that's not it |
06:37.04 | fontenot | note on one forum said glibc2.3.2 would not build with a gcc made with --disable-shared |
06:37.12 | fontenot | at least gcc 3.2.3 |
06:37.16 | fontenot | i mean 3.2.2 |
06:37.24 | kergoth | http://openzaurus.bkbits.net:8080/buildroot/src/ |
06:37.28 | kergoth | browse into packages |
06:37.39 | kergoth | gcc-3.2-initial, gcc-3.2, and glibc-2.3 are what you should look at |
06:37.43 | kergoth | just as a sanity check |
06:37.46 | fontenot | ok thanks |
06:37.49 | kergoth | np |
06:39.18 | fontenot | hmm I dont use --with-gnu-ld |
06:39.50 | fontenot | I'll try a few permutations of things |
06:42.03 | kergoth | k |
06:43.31 | fontenot | kergoth: how do I actually download something from that site? like if I want one of the Makefiles? |
06:43.42 | kergoth | hm, not sure |
06:43.43 | fontenot | I can only seem to get diffs and annotated versions |
06:44.10 | kergoth | if you have bk, you can grab the tree itself, but i dont know how via the web interface |
06:44.34 | fontenot | so there is not a cvs interface ? |
06:45.18 | fontenot | kergoth: is everything in the packages dir cross-compiled? |
06:45.36 | kergoth | yup |
06:45.52 | fontenot | cool there is a lot of useful knowledge there then |
06:45.54 | kergoth | no cvs interface, just bk. there are periodically built snapshots |
06:46.10 | kergoth | but I've made changes very recently,it'll be a bit before the snapshot is updated |
06:46.17 | fontenot | so if I dl bk and install it I can then grab all those files? |
06:46.49 | kergoth | yep |
06:47.07 | kergoth | ibot: bitkeeper |
06:47.08 | | extra, extra, read all about it, bitkeeper is at http://www.bitkeeper.com/ or at http://www.bitmover.com/ or hosted trees at http://www.bkbits.net/ or like cvs and subversion, but its non-opensource.. but its really good, even linus uses it to develop the kernel! |
06:47.09 | kergoth | ibot: oz buildroot |
06:47.10 | | it has been said that oz bk is bk clone http://openzaurus.bkbits.net/buildroot buildroot-oz; cd buildroot-oz; bk -r co -q; cp def-configs/collie-opie .config (for zaurus 5000d/5500) .. make oldconfig; make; or see bitkeeper (free download but non-gpl) or see 'oz snapshot' if you either cannot or will not use bitkeeper. |

17:00.16 | TomW | I gave up my morning coffee years ago, 8? 10? I found that tea wakes me up just as well and I don't get a sour stomach if I drink too much of it. |

17:08.33 | chouimat | ok my 8 cup of cofffee are on the way |
17:09.18 | TomW | :/ yuk |
17:10.28 | TomW | I almost bought a 4 cup coffee maker the other day, at least was toying with the idea. I thought that I should sleep on it and see if I felt that I still needed one the next day... |
17:10.33 | TomW | Nope, don't need one. |
17:11.30 | chouimat | TomW: I have a 12 cup one ... and two 10-12 cup somewherein a box |

17:16.24 | chouimat | ok time to start a kde compile here |
17:16.38 | TomW | no, really. I was looking at a 4 cup maker and getting a bean grinder. But, then, those are luxury items that I would seldom use and have to find space to store them. |
17:17.23 | file | gah dang it... I hate it when SDRAM doesn't show up as the full size in a system... |
17:18.14 | chouimat | TomW: I have a food processor that include a bean grinder so I' m ok |
17:19.03 | TomW | chocolate covered coffee beans? |
17:19.18 | chouimat | TomW: I'm out of those |
17:19.24 | TomW | heh |
17:20.51 | TomW | I used to work that way, super strong coffee, long hours, ..., then I burned out for the first (and last) time. That was not a thing that I wanted to do again: burn out. It took me almost 10 months to get my mental faculties back again. |
17:21.36 | TomW | I was working 70 .. 80 hours a week when that happened. |
17:21.46 | chouimat | TomW: ok |

17:27.32 | file | dammit |
17:27.40 | file | so my system IS reporting it correctly! |
17:27.41 | TomW | 4 meg deep, 64 bits wide. |
17:27.52 | TomW | AFAIK |
17:27.56 | file | well it's official, I need to buy RAM |
17:30.45 | file | let's see how Windows likes this bad memory... muahahahahaha |
17:34.45 | ade|indy | is there a way to tag the bad addresses and stop the kernel from using them ? |
17:35.36 | file | ade|indy: on Linux yes |
17:35.44 | file | ade|indy: it's called badram |
17:35.46 | TomW | ade|indy: in what way? You mean "holes" in the ram memory field? |
17:36.01 | file | ade|indy: it allocates the bad memory areas so that programs/kernel can't use them |
17:36.21 | ade|indy | file: sounds quite useful then |
17:36.29 | file | ade|indy: really neat idea |
17:36.47 | ade|indy | how does it work ? |
17:36.59 | file | ade|indy: let me get you the URL |
17:37.21 | file | http://rick.vanrein.org/linux/badram/ |
17:37.37 | ade|indy | i thought all userland memory was assigned by the kernel is virtual addresses, how do you get 'real' |
17:38.09 | file | ade|indy: go.. and see |
17:39.12 | TomW | I did that on the Tux IDE driver, let me check the function name... |
17:40.14 | ade|indy | ah its not userland entirely, but kernel land |

17:41.57 | TomW | yeah, you have to do it in the kernel. The kernel is "God" and can do anything you tell it to do. |
17:43.17 | TomW | The caveat is that the smallest amount of RAM that you can allocate is based upon the smallest unit that the MMU can map. Usually 4K |
17:44.16 | TomW | ade|indy: do you have a copy of Allesandro Rubini's "Linux device drivers" book? |

17:46.18 | file[bed] | I wish it was possible to tell Windows that it has only so much RAM... cause my bad memory is only after 150MB |

17:52.38 | TomW | yeah, but, the problem with communism, or any other form of governmental ideal is that it involves people. People are greedy. |
17:52.44 | TomW | by nature |
17:53.16 | chouimat | TomW: yup ... and as we said Capitalism is the exploitation of men by men and communism is the exact opposite |

22:51.07 | kergoth | which locks the file for editing |
22:51.51 | mallum | kergoth: okey cool, and bk new <new file> to add a new one ? |
22:52.23 | kergoth | or bk add, or bk ci -i |
22:55.49 | mallum | kergoth: cool, and does the changeset just get made ? or do I need to run an actual command ? |
22:56.19 | kergoth | bk ci checks in each individual change |
22:56.22 | kergoth | bk commit creates a changeset |
22:56.25 | kergoth | or you can us bk citool to do both |
22:56.28 | kergoth | s/us/use/ |
22:56.43 | kergoth | all bk pull and push do, is send/receive ChangeSets between repositories |
22:56.47 | kergoth | local or remote |
22:56.48 | andersee | kergoth: hey |
22:57.24 | mallum | kergoth: gotcha |
22:57.31 | andersee | kergoth: tried the latest oz last night. Looks nice. The web browser wouldnt install. |
22:57.44 | kergoth | yeah, thats becaues /var was mounted with noexec |
22:57.44 | *** join/#elinux gatofisch (~ab1244@pcp02413455pcs.grosep01.mi.comcast.net) |
22:57.46 | kergoth | (oops) |
22:57.58 | kergoth | remove 'user' from the fstab line for /var |
22:58.01 | kergoth | :) |
23:01.40 | andersee | trying that now |
23:03.14 | andersee | kergoth: any way to check package size prior to installing? |
23:03.40 | andersee | i.e. to check if konqueror-snapshot-full will fit? |

23:06.22 | kergoth | depends. only if the package has an Installed-Size field.. and even then, its iffy, given you're installing to a compressed medium.. |
23:21.07 | andersee | kergoth: seems like at package creation time one could run mkfs.jffs2 on it to determine how big it'll be. If someone wanted to invest the effort... |
23:21.13 | andersee | no big deal though |
23:30.21 | kergoth | andersee: in fact, the tools I use to build packages do just that |
23:30.33 | kergoth | andersee: :) but I dont know if opie's packaging GUI displays it |
23:30.43 | kergoth | andersee: could be listed in the double-tap info page on the package |
