06:44.23Michaelchhi! does any1 know where i can find a guide to install linux on my pda with windows ?

07:54.47goxboxlivecheck the install section : http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/Universal
08:06.41goxboxliveMichaelch: That guide is not with windows, but it is with your universal. You dont need a linux computer to get linux on the Universal.
08:29.32aweluxgoxboxlive, not entirely true.
08:30.07aweluxthe guide describes how to partition with linux.
08:30.11goxboxliveawelux: Why?
08:31.04goxboxliveYes, but you can boot the universal with ramdisk, and then partition the sd card from the universal. So what i ment was that you dont need a linux computer, but you need linux on your universal.
08:31.05aweluxIt's possible to boot the universal with one of the initrd images and partition the SD on the universal but that's not described.
08:31.43goxboxlivethats described, look in the 'installing linux part'
08:31.44aweluxright. But I think that might be hard for someone not familiar with the details of partitions and filesystems.
08:32.07goxboxlivethat's right, it might be hard.
08:32.52aweluxoh. you are right. I missed the Partitioning & formatting the SDCard directly on the Universal (not PC) part. sry :)
09:08.29goxboxliveawelux: I'm going to edit that part a little. To make it more lucid.

18:35.07goxboxlive:-)
18:35.46goxboxlivehow much did u gave for it?
18:35.53rob_wi found the ba kernel is wrecked up these days ..
18:36.12goxboxliverow_w: how come?
18:37.18rob_wno idea ,, it felt that maybe the defconfig was changed to bad or so .,. the modules miss alot symbols to each other
18:37.41goxboxliveko
18:37.44goxboxliveok
18:40.06rob_whmm that gues is wrong ,, defconfig did not change long time
18:40.23rob_wso ineed  to look at the compile messages
18:41.35rob_wdid someone ever tested the merged ba stuff in the universal tree ?
18:47.50BabelOuedhi rob_w
18:48.26BabelOuedba stuff under universal tree doesb t compile

20:29.19aweluxIt will ship with all the accessories so I'm sure itm wasn't stolen.
20:30.59goxboxliveok, sounds like a good price.
20:31.55aweluxYes. I montored the ebay auctions ever since my close kill of my own magician.
20:32.03aweluxI wanted to have one in reserve
20:49.00goxboxlive:-)
20:50.19goxboxliveawelux: Are you going for Opie or GPE?
20:50.41aweluxcurrently I'm going for serial ports.
20:51.23aweluxopie or gpe is not really my concern now. So far I'm using opie because I could just use an existing image.
20:51.54goxboxliveok i c. Is there made any phone application for Opie  yet?

20:54.54mrevilhi
20:55.47goxboxlivehi mrevil
20:56.15aweluxgoxboxlive, I've not seen any.
20:57.14goxboxliveme neither. Where are cr2, Is he giving up the linux port to the Universal? Havent seen him here lately
20:58.28mrevilawelux: have you done BIGROM successfully?
20:58.48aweluxmrevil, yes. Thanks for the hints there
21:00.19mrevili've managed to start the initrd and found my mistake concerning the sf-repository. THe night was too long ..
21:03.20mrevili've got another question. are there sd-cards which are known not to work with a penguin driven magician?
21:04.04aweluxyes :/
21:04.10aweluxI've one of them
21:05.06aweluxI've a kinston sandisk and a normal blue sandisc which both work.
21:05.14aweluxBut the sandisc ultra II doesn't work
21:05.26aweluxSo right now your best bet are slow sandisks
21:06.06mrevilhmm, mine is toshiba (labled CnMemory, atelco...) but i'm not able to mount it . no problem with my linux pc
21:07.58mrevilso for further experiments i should "invest". does the wultra II work with CE?
21:09.45rob_wmrevil, what is the outcome  on mounting it
21:10.35mrevilrob_w, the card does not seem to be detected..
21:10.45aweluxmrevil, yes it works with wince
21:10.53aweluxoh.
21:11.11aweluxfor me the ultra II got detected but I couldn't access all sectores.
21:11.42aweluxAnd btw. The current driver doesn't detect if you add a card later. The card must be present when the driver is loaded. e.g. at boot time.
21:11.44mrevilrob_w, i'll boot to give you the exact message
21:12.10rob_wi bet the market will always procude low level clones of any existing technic or standard ;-)
21:13.20rob_wif the low level detection fails ( not even the power can be applyied correclty ) then there is something wrong in the party`s
21:15.36rob_wcompact flash cards fe doesnt necessarly do the ide disk part full correct ,,as they only photo camera`s and so they card manufacturer doesnt spend the time and money in implementing the full standard
21:16.17rob_wi hope everybody got the meaning out of this bad english typed sentence ;-)
21:16.28mreviland, nearby, why does my version ov gnuharet (200603042123) ignore the startup.txt?
21:16.46rob_wthat shows me that im tired .. cu all tomorrow
21:20.50mrevilthe mmc-message is ""unrecognised SCR structure version 1"
21:26.18aweluxmrevil, that's because cr2 renamed it internaly to search for startupN.txt or startup.txtN (don't know exactly) when he wanted to use two version in parallel.
21:28.10mrevilawelux, hmm, that info should be helpful for rebooting and not having to calibrate and move stupid appointments
21:28.22aweluxmove startup.txt to startupN.txt and it should be used
21:28.39aweluxmrevil, exactly :)

21:29.15mrevil:)
21:30.43mrevilawelux, did you manage to start "synce-serial-start" on connection automated?
21:31.29aweluxno :/
21:31.52aweluxI think udev is all cool
21:31.56aweluxBut not user ready
21:32.11aweluxI wrote a script I start as root:
21:32.31mrevilyes, it's kindof mystery for me
21:32.44aweluxIt calls synce-serial-abort, synce-serial-start and then copies files to the magician and starts haret.
21:33.19mrevilthat should make life much easier
21:33.20aweluxabout udev: There is no api to add devices, no ui, and no gui.
21:34.08aweluxAt my company I'm just now arguing against writing the udev files directly. It's to risky we might break something.
21:34.29aweluxFor example when we run out of hd space.
21:34.31mrevil..and have not been able to find "quick and easy" documentation
21:35.17mreviludev is able to create enough files to run a system out of hd-space?
21:36.13aweluxright. And with 4 official ways how to handle device nodes in  years I really think udev can use a few more years.
21:36.37aweluxmrevil, that depends on the hd space.
21:36.58aweluxIf you have just a 1 kb free or even nothing free you might have a problem
21:37.08mrevilyou are working on embedded systems?
21:37.37aweluxNo. mainframes. They are not generous with resources there :)
21:38.24mrevilhmm, embedded, mainframes, where's the difference? ;)

21:39.47husamcr2: I'm trying to use irda to dump trace from h6300 bootloader ... do you know which tty I should be using on the host (my PC)
21:41.20aweluxhusam, strangely cr2 is not here :)
21:41.39husam:) ok ... come someone else help
21:42.04husamI guess he needs break :)
21:42.22aweluxDoesn't irda on linux have special irda tty modules ?
21:43.08husamwill there ircomm I think ... but doesn't work
21:45.17aweluxI've had a lot of problems with ir too. Couldn'T get it to work properly.
21:46.29husamok ... Maybe I don't have the right driver
21:46.35aweluxWhy do you need irda to access the h6300 bootloader?
21:50.51mrevildoes the standard initrd "speak" NFS?
21:51.45husamawelux : so I can get the trace and see why it's not respoding when I send command
21:54.45aweluxDoes the standard bootloader dump info to the irda? At first I thought you want to dump an image of the bootloader. But I guess you would have said so.
21:55.43aweluxDo you see any data when you use irdadump -x ?
21:55.52husamYes bootloader uses irda port to dump trace .... and I just want the trace
21:56.14husamI haven't tried this
21:58.01husamNothing comes out from irdadump -x
21:58.15aweluxirdadump should dump the raw irda packages. nothing is bad.
21:59.13husamthought so
22:00.14aweluxirdadump  -d  -x  -s  256  will  check the contents of the frames. This should tell us if the frames have malformed content, or if the irda
