17:54.12Hedphelymis there a functional version of linux that i can use on my imate jasjar?
17:59.02goxboxliveHedphelym-> It works but not 100%
17:59.27goxboxliveHedphelym->
17:59.29goxboxlivehttp://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/Universal
17:59.48Hedphelymyes, that's the one i'm currently looking at.
18:00.14Hedphelymbut from what i can see, you need a card-reader in computer to install..
18:00.14HedphelymNow you prepare your SD/MMC card to run linux on it
18:00.15HedphelymWhen WinCe starts loading, remove the SD, and put it in your desktop,
18:00.24Hedphelymand i dont have that at the moment :o\
18:01.25Hedphelymis it possible to do a workaround for this? so that i dont need a cardreader?
18:03.02goxboxliveHedphelym-> yes, you can use your Universal to prepare the SD card
18:04.30Hedphelymokay, by using that "usb hdd" function?
18:05.32goxboxliveSomeone has changed the wiki, i dont know why. I havent noticed it. But instaed of getting the opie/gpe or whatever you choose to your sd card just download it with your universal instead of computer.
18:07.32goxboxliveHedphelym-> i dont know what the USB-hdd is, but just follow the howto and just skip the checking part of the size of the image.
18:09.19Hedphelymokay, i'll try this now.
18:09.27Hedphelymthank you for helping out goxboxlive.
18:09.58goxboxliveHedphelym-> welcome
18:15.26Hedphelymlet's say i mess it up, do i just "reinstall" the wm9 i had before? and just reset the device?

18:45.22goxboxliveHedphelym-> crashing during fdisk?
18:45.52Hedp|afkseems to work now..
18:45.54Hedp|afkit just booted.
18:46.01Hedp|afkso i just started it again¨
18:46.17Hedp|afknow it's "creating journal"..
18:47.09goxboxliveok
18:49.48Hedp|afkwhich one of these is "best"? http://gnulinux.biz/files//Universal/
18:50.29goxboxlivedepends of what you want, but i guess Opie is the nicest one and most bugfree for now.
18:50.29Hedp|afkis it the openmoko i should use?

19:17.40BabelOwhich one ? i just need to set latest kernel
19:18.40immoloerr handhelds I was thinking
19:18.51immolomore visitors will catch it
19:19.20BabelOimmolo: yes no problem, i just recompile a new image with new kernel and upload it to a ftp
19:19.34immolosounds good
19:20.08immolooh in opie do you know why the battery icon doesn't change when it goes from ac to power etc
19:20.45immoloit only seems to use the icon it was using when booting
19:20.45BabelOit change, but only on AC power not usb power
19:20.56immoloits on ac
19:21.10BabelOah ? strange
19:21.14immoloyeah
19:21.32immoloI'll try the new kernel maybe it will fix
19:21.56BabelOhave to ask goxboxlive about this.. i need to go out now.. bbl

21:48.19psokolovskyimmolo: why do you spawn duplicate stuff? we have installation instructions for XXX in unbound quantities. why would we need yet another one?
21:49.12immolobetter layout plus it doesn't link to older stuff
21:49.39psokolovskybetter layout? lol
21:49.53immoloclearer layout then the old one
21:50.13psokolovskywhat we need is *single* *generic* installation instructions for *any* device. fancy writing such?
21:50.37immoloI don't mind but I only know the BA
21:52.01immolobut then to be honest isn't that guide pretty much generic
21:53.43psokolovskythat's exactly the problem - people don't want to do it right, people want to do how it seems "betta" for them. But actually they just do random duplications. Then a new guy comes, sees all that crap, and starts to rewrite/duplicate it how he sees "betta". vicious cycle and explanation why hh.org wiki is such crap. ;-)

21:55.02immoloI said isn't the guide pretty much generic for all device installs anyway
21:55.24immolobut I see your point
21:55.44psokolovskyimmolo: indeed, so why you added that page if we already had that "almost pretty much" in wiki?

21:58.00immolobecause I was going to add links for the new files which saves people the hassle of coming here like I did to check the project is still going without having to download files from 2006/6
21:58.04immoloerr 2005/6
21:58.16immoloand while I was at it I did a tidy up
21:58.36immoloI know when it was written is was just done for quickness because I was here when it was done
22:00.58psokolovskyimmolo: but what's so special about BA? why users of all other devices go to Angstrom site and d/l fresh stuff there, while BA needs some adhoc duplicated pages?
22:03.43immoloI don't see a blueangel image there
22:07.16psokolovskyimmolo: gotcha! So, maybe it's better to think how to stop BA from being a misfit for which images cannot be downloaded from a by now well-known place of cross-device fresh stuff, than to craft some duplicate pages, soon to grow old just like the ones they try to update?
22:08.22immolobut then I need to be a developer right to be allow to post images I create which I can't do
22:09.21psokolovskyimmolo: you can't be a developer?
22:09.33immoloand even then I don't see an install guide for any of the other htc devices on angstrom
22:10.17immolowell I suck at oe so there isn't much point
22:10.17psokolovskywell, I see now, I guess.

22:11.35immolowouldn't it just be better to say nice try but you could help the project more by.....
22:12.04immolorather then just moaning at someone trying to help
22:12.08psokolovskyI just tried to understand, why people prefer to write newspaper-like stuff, which I, as a wiki maintainer, would need to delete eventually, then then paper gets yellow and faded out - do all that, instead of just doing things right, and contribute to progress on Linux-on-PDA stuff
22:12.14psokolovskyit's sad, it's sad
22:13.02immoloand where would I post for it to be proper
22:16.14psokolovskywell, imaginarily, you wouldn't start to write your own stuff, but instead would try to update and maintain existing stuff of generic nature. We have great and pretty generic install page here: http://handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/HpIpaqH2200CardBoot . it needs more work to be more device--neutral though. But doing that would be good start...
22:19.08immolowell saying that shouldn't it be called how to install
22:19.38immoloand then how would you easily tell people what to download
22:19.56psokolovskypossibly. comments and suggestion are welcome for sure
22:20.12immolowouldn't a template by the better option then you can add quickfixes for different devices as needed
22:20.20psokolovskyby having a clear and concise "downloads" page?
22:21.26immoloI suppose
22:32.17tre9immolo: I'm up for helping create a generic howto guide.  If you want to think through how to organize it and then give me a job, I'll do my best.  Thanks for taking the initiative to make it easier for users.
22:34.26immolotre9-  yeah, I was just thinking of way to do it
22:34.52immoloI need some sleep now but I'll be back tomorrow maybe we can work on it
22:40.55tre9ok.
