14:52.34mallumflorian: no new bugs really then ?
14:52.40florianmallum: I think you didn't miss that much of interest...
14:53.16mallumflorian: ok, any mbmerlin hackings ?
14:53.43florianmallum: I managed to kill mbdesktop a few days ago by rotating the display...
14:54.35mallumflorian: okay, can you reliably replicate it ?
14:55.17florianmallum: I think nothing new, but i'm not sure about what i did before you diappeared...

14:59.24florianmallum: I remember some people talking about this, but i don't know about someone working on it.
14:59.44reenoomallum: and it's hard to change that afterwards ;)
15:00.07mallumok
15:01.17florianmallum: Ole's handwriting recognition project is in cvs now afaik.
15:01.34mallumflorian: ah cool, any good ?
15:03.07florianI have lots of work at kc and if i find a free minute i try to hack a library interface for ipkg or find out why the h5xxx ipaq doesn't work.
15:03.35florianmallum: seems to work basically - but still much to do...
15:10.06reenooshouldn't gzip -t file.gz spew errors at me if file.gz is corrupt?
15:11.26reenoo(still trying to verify the backups of my ipaq's pocket pc)

16:09.59reenoook... created backup files once again... tranferred them to my desktop system... cmp show no difference between the new and the old backup files... is it safe to assume that the files are ok now?
16:12.16florianhm yes, why not....
16:13.19reenooif I delete/insert random chars in the .gz files gunzip -vt still says "OK"
16:13.34reenoothat made me wonder :/
16:16.48florianhuh? ah yes... i'm not sure how gzip works, maybe it has a directory block
16:19.58reenoodon't know details on the gzip format. still gunzip -vt seems like a bad idea to verify the images if you ask me
16:21.12florianwhat happens if you unzip it completely?
16:21.31reenoono errors either

17:56.51pb_no, nothing at all really.

21:38.14sangamonafter installing gpe2 0.7 on a 3600 there seems to be not much room left
21:38.15dc_hey florian
21:38.52floriansangamon: yes, this is true - looks like we need to work on the footprint :-/
21:39.38floriansangamon: But you could remobe stuff you don't need e.g. browser, bluetooth stuff or some games.
21:39.57sangamonbut do they add up to more than 1-2 megs?
21:40.51sangamonI made a program to mangle the output of "ipkg status" and sort the packages after size
21:40.58ade|deskif you remove the bluetooth/3800 crap you save 308 K
21:41.19sangamonhmm, I need 3-4 M, I think
21:41.32ade|deskthats a lot to remove
21:41.38sangamonyes
21:41.39reenoo<-- all happy with his ipaq now :)
21:41.45dc_:]
21:41.47sangamonI'm not sure it's possible
21:41.53ade|deskdillo and the games might free another 400K
21:42.28sangamonyes, I have to consider the strategies here
21:42.55sangamonIrdamodules are 198702 irda-modules
21:42.59ade|deskneed the mp3/ogg player?
21:43.11sangamonno
21:43.16sangamonwhats "359774 gstreamer" ?
21:43.24sangamon(number is size)
21:43.49sangamon114740 nfs-modules
21:43.50ade|deskthats the bit for the audio mp3/ogg player
21:44.01sangamon70584 libdictionary
21:44.56floriansangamon: gstreamer is the media player backend for gpe-nmf
21:45.18florianoh, nfs is large!
21:45.51ade|deskneed usbnet ?
21:46.05sangamonno
21:47.07ade|deskhmm doesn't save alot
21:47.11sangamonso, perhaps: BT 308, nfs 114, muzak 359+113, ppp 100, dict 70. Thats about a meg.
21:47.30sangamona fresh gpe2 is about 14,5 M
21:47.36ade|deskwhat do you need the extra room for ?
21:47.41sangamondrugs
21:48.06sangamonso some cleaning makes about 2,5 M free
21:48.12sangamonade|desk: just kiddding :D
21:48.40ade|deskseriously , what needs so much space?
21:48.52sangamonI saved a major amount of time by using python for some web-client stuff
21:49.00sangamonbut that is development time
21:49.18sangamonpython takes 2,5 M and my code takes about 0.5 M
21:49.31ade|deskah
21:49.45ade|deskneed all python modules ?
21:49.46sangamonIf I cannot use python then I have to code the whole web-client in C
21:50.10ade|deskmight be easier to slap into a smaller space
21:50.14sangamonade|desk: yes, it seems so. Using the web-client stuff in python sucks most of the modules in
21:50.16ade|deskand run faster too
21:50.29sangamonade|desk: speed is not a problem
21:50.43sangamonade|desk: otherwise you are right of course
21:51.25sangamonI have to do some thinking about this.
21:51.48sangamonIt works like a charm on a 37* or a 38*
21:52.01ade|desksangamon: is this going to be a multi purpose ipaq or very one op device?
21:52.17floriansangamon: Do you intend to use this in a kind of "production" state or just for development?
21:52.27sangamonhopefully it will be a one op thing
21:52.38sangamonflorian: hopefully production
21:52.55ade|deskthen you might be better off with bootstrap + minimal X
21:53.08sangamonI need gtk
21:53.13ade|desk1 or 2?
21:53.17sangamon2
21:53.24sangamonbut 1 is ok
21:53.39ade|deskgtk1 is a bit smaller
21:53.45floriansangamon: Ah ok, for development a simple cf carm may help :-)
21:54.10sangamonhmm, yes. Good thinking :-)
21:55.08floriansangamon: In this case remove all gpe pim apps and maybe libsqlite and stuff like gpe-clock.
21:55.27sangamonwho uses libsqlite?
21:55.32sangamon(which app?)
21:55.35ade|deskand the gpe-confiig could also go
21:55.45ade|deskcalendar
21:56.30sangamonYes, that is probably another 0,5 M. Then I'd be home :)
21:57.04florianmost gpe pim applications, ah.. and gpe-confd... better don't remove it :-)
21:57.26ade|deskyeah just noticed that, gpe-confd
21:57.30ade|deskbugger
21:58.25sangamonbut games, calendar, calculator, sketchbook is ok to remove?
21:58.53florianyep
21:58.58sangamon<PROTECTED>
21:59.23ade|deski'd work from base up, bootstrap then add X, libgtk2 and a WM
21:59.31florianif you don't want to configure wlan unsing the gui, yes
22:00.07sangamonyes
22:00.17ade|deskis this a dum user device?
22:00.26sangamondumb?
22:00.31ade|deski cant spell
22:00.35sangamon:D
22:00.42sangamonYes, so far
22:01.02sangamonbut my project manager got really impressed by the pim stuff
22:01.02ade|deskso the less config options the less they can stuff up
22:01.35ade|deskfixed settings on boot is a safer option and takes less space
22:01.37sangamonthe other day he said  "hey, this looks interesting, maybe we can use this other stuff as well?"
22:01.47ade|deskah
22:01.53ade|deskdamn PM
22:02.05ade|deskare they never happy
22:02.12sangamonand in the next breath he tells me to try to cut as many corners as possible :-D
22:02.23florianwithout contacts dou won't need libmimedir* too.
22:02.30sangamonah, yes
22:02.53sangamonBut now I think I can do it :)
22:03.18sangamonYou guys are great :)
22:03.35florian:-)
22:03.37ade|deskor you could solder in a bigger flash chips
22:03.49sangamonAnd i'm so happy not being forced to do this in win-ce
22:04.21ade|deskcan you write to the flash under wince these days ?
22:04.55sangamoni dunno, I removed wince the first thing on my ipaqs
22:05.21dc_night, school at 6 tomorrow.
