17:29.07nealflorian: Great.
17:29.27nealflorian: It looks better on my display as the menu no longer takes two lines.
17:34.37florian_kcneal: right - and the menu doesn't link to a page without menu anymore.
17:34.49nealthat's also good
17:35.24nealflorian: Is there any reason for all the command line options that you added some months ago to gpe-calendar?
17:35.44nealI feel that since libeventdb is much more robust, most any application can just use libevent directly
17:36.06nealand for synchronization, opensync should work quite well
17:36.14nealI've written a new plugin which is more robust
17:36.54nealand as opensync can detect deleted events, we can remove the list of deleted events from the DB.
17:39.21florian_kcneal: i remember some funky people who started to code some syncing against some server solution based on these options (some lotus server iirc)
17:39.56florian_kcneal: i guess once we can sync against syncml clients and servers using opensync we can get rid of these again.
17:40.15nealare you using them somewhere?
17:40.17nealif so, where?
17:41.10florian_kcthem == options?
17:41.15nealyes
17:41.22nealor facilities
17:41.30nealopensync should support syncml already
17:41.32philippeevening all
17:41.34nealat least as I understand it
17:41.36philippehey neal!
17:41.37florian_kcnot personally...
17:41.40florian_kchi philippe
17:41.44philippehi florian_kc
17:41.50nealhi philippe
17:42.40florian_kcneal: to some extend... the server plugin (e.g. to sync cellphones) seems to work pretty well but the client plugin (to sync against servers) is crap...
17:42.49nealI see.
17:42.54nealI haven't tried it.
17:42.58florian_kcneal: don't look at it to close... it makes you cry ;)
17:43.08nealwhen you say sync against servers, what do you mean?
17:43.22florian_kcits configured using gconf *and* a config file
17:44.16nealI still don't understand, sorry
17:44.46nealwhat is "it"?
17:45.21florian_kcneal: Funambol (scheduleworld.com runs it for example, thats a GPLed one) or some commercial ones like Lotus Domino and some SUN stuff
17:45.34florian_kca "it" was the client lugin :-)
17:46.00nealso when you sync a GPE device against Funambol (for instance)?
17:46.04nealthat's the broken part?
17:46.12nealand what protocol does that use?
17:46.57*** join/#gpe Kompo (n=kimmo@a88-114-215-138.elisa-laajakaista.fi)
17:47.21florian_kcneal: You would use it as a server solution for all sorts of PIM data and sync your PC applications, a PDA or smartphone against the server. These things seem to be quite common now.
17:47.29florian_kcneal: SyncML
17:47.43nealI see.
17:47.51nealso using syncml against a phone is okay
17:47.55nealbut against a server is broken
17:48.01nealvery strange.
17:48.40florian_kcright... because thats provided by completely different plugins.
17:49.06florian_kc(that doesn't mean that i this is a good idea, imho its a pain)
17:57.19nealok.

20:00.42philippeflorian_kc: I was already wonderingf what was going to happen there.
20:01.12philippeflorian_kc: what do you mean with : oops checked in the new directories?

20:05.36florian_kcphilippe: i wonder if we maybe want to move "defunct" outside of "trunk"
20:06.22philippemight not be too bad...
20:06.49florian_kcthat would make the default checkouts much smaller
20:07.20philippewhich would go easy on the bandwith, which is definitly good
20:09.03florian_kcright
20:09.19philippeand will make svn updates faster too :-)
20:09.23florian_kci just changed the wiki - we have the default dirs there now too

21:35.15nealphilippe: The status of debian packaging
21:35.23philippeyep
21:35.32nealphilippe: IMO, we should use CDBS
21:35.47philippeso switch all the packages to that?
21:35.49nealphilippe: And we should package all the useful stuff
21:35.59nealphilippe: including gpe-calendar
21:36.17nealphilippe: If you are asking my opinion, then I think that would be a very good idea.
21:36.30philippemaybe we should make a list then.
21:36.43*** join/#gpe mccarthy (n=mccarthy@granular.che.pitt.edu)
21:37.04nealwell, gpe-calendar in the most noticible missing gpe package in debian
21:37.26nealgpe-todo is present and gpe-contacts
21:37.37nealand the very important gpe-julia
21:37.42philippe:-)
21:38.01mccarthyanyone know how to get more debugging info on boot from an ipaq?
21:38.14mccarthyhi all, btw
21:38.24mccarthygo neal beat someone until gpe-calendar is in debian!
21:38.45philippeWell the gtk-webcore packages are going to be better too. Svn head is building again now.
21:39.06philippemccarthy: you mean more debugging than you get on the serial console?
21:54.50mccarthyphilippe, all I get on the serial console is "Uncompressing linux...................done. booting the kernel..."
21:54.54mccarthythen it hangs
21:54.58mccarthyI used to get more
21:55.05mccarthy(back on my 3670)
21:56.50mreimermccarthy: make sure you have "console=ttyS0" or the equivalent in your kernel command line
21:57.02mccarthyI have console=ttySA0
21:57.15mccarthyshould I change it to no A?
21:57.22florianthat would be correct for a strongarm device...
21:57.26florianyes
21:57.44mccarthyflorian, with or without the A for a 5550?
21:57.53florianwithout the A
21:57.57mccarthyoh
21:58.03mccarthyI'll try that, thanks
21:59.38mccarthyhmm
21:59.51mccarthystill nothing after "booting the kernel"
22:05.51mccarthyconsole=/dev/ttyS0 didn't help either
22:06.41mreimertry console=/dev/ttyS0,115200n8
22:09.26mreimerand make sure you have the right options in your config for a serial console
22:11.28*** join/#gpe nxu (i=n@gateway/tor/x-63bb65c364aa7542)
22:12.38mccarthymreimer, don't they *have* to be right for me to be in the bootldr in the first place? (not being a smart-ass, just asking)
22:13.07mreimerbootldr is separate from the kernel, so no
22:14.05florianright, but both should default to 115200,8,N,1
22:14.20mccarthystill no joy
22:14.27mccarthymaybe it is hanging right here ...
22:14.44mccarthy(before anything beyond "booting the kernel")
22:15.17mreimerCONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y might help, if the kernel just doesn't have the necessary serial options
22:15.18florianhmm, do you boot the zImage from the rootfs?
22:17.48mccarthymreimer, I just built the kernel with oe, so I have no idea even *how* to set configs...
22:18.28mccarthyflorian, I am not sure what you mean, but I *do* get "booting boot/zImage from partition >root<" before it hangs
22:18.55florianmccarthy: that's what i meant
22:19.00mccarthyok
22:19.17mccarthyoh well
22:19.34mccarthyI hear that mmp has built angstrom for h5000 so I will wait and grab him at some other time
22:20.12florianiirc koen did that too
22:20.14mccarthy(totally bummed that oe doesn't play nice with familiar anymore...or vice versa, whatever the flamy situation is these days)
22:21.03mccarthy(also totally bummed that the whole community seems splintered now ... I have almost given up and gotten a palm! yikes! )
22:21.37florianmccarthy: right... the situation is everything but good :-(
22:22.09mccarthymaybe the FIC phone will get the troops somewhat rallied and focused again?!
22:22.36florianmccarthy: i guess the major source of problems is that noone seems to know how things get decided in familiar.
22:22.46floriani asked and was told to go away... so i did :-(
22:22.58mccarthyflorian, odd
22:23.39florianindeed
22:23.43mccarthyit means my ipaq is difficult to keep up to date with gpe svn (is all I know)
22:24.38philippemccarthy: Well soon that will be better, I just started building stuff to have some starting point to build GPE svn releases
22:25.07mccarthyphilippe, using OE?
22:25.54philippemccarthy: using OE and amstrong yes
22:26.06mccarthyphilippe, ok. cool.
22:26.16mccarthythat's exactly what I *tried* to do
22:26.40floriani'm checking out a full gpe tree to start the cleanups
22:26.47mccarthyI got mmp's latest test image to boot, but it did not have networking or X so it wasn't so user friendly :)
22:27.23florianheh, ipaqs without x are no fun :-}
22:28.02mccarthyflorian, and I cannot get usb networking working so without wifi I was hopeless to fix it :)
