18:35.25BabelOpikapika: yes
18:35.59BabelOcr2: no, just checking the core on arm, i want to see webkit in action

18:36.38pikapikaBabelO: i understand better :)

18:44.13pikapikaand a prophet i have to repair
18:45.12cr2dcordes: the most interesting problem is to understand why the LCD and SD can't be traced, while on 7500 it's not a problem.
18:45.25cr2dcordes: but it's not an easy problem.
18:45.50cr2pikapika: ba4, ba5 or ba6 ?
18:45.56dcordescr2: well LCD works though

18:47.44dcordespikapika: cat /proc/cpuinfo on blueangel. cr2 would like to know which board revision you have
18:47.45BabelOpikapika: get .exe and bz2 on root of your sdcard, then start the exe, you need at least 200Mb free
18:48.16pikapikadcordes: ok thanks, but i just a wm6 on it for the moment
18:48.45dcordescr2: you mean I should try to trace SD gpios?

20:15.08marbalontry to remove haretlog.txt
20:15.23marbalonit's grows up every boot
20:15.39cr2kiozen: hehe. still looking for a bug
20:16.53kiozencr2: do you have a nice explanatory link on how to convert bitmaps to one and the same pallet. Either gimp or convert. Need that for the tutorial.
20:17.41cr2kiozen: it's easy to do it formally, but not so easy to do it good.
20:18.10cr2you need to create a palette first
20:18.25kiozenwell you can do from the 1st file
20:18.36cr2for gimp it's a .gpl file
20:18.59cr2look at /usr/share/gimp/2.0/palettes/*
20:19.06cr2the format is very simple
20:19.28cr2GIMP Palette
20:19.28cr2Name: News3
20:19.28cr2#
20:19.28cr2236 232   4     Untitled
20:19.35cr2r g b name
20:19.41cr2colorname
20:19.51kiozencr2: a nice page to refere to would be enought :)
20:20.00cr2don't know any.
20:20.39cr2then, when you are do color reduction, you need to choose this palette. that's all.
20:21.15cr2you custom palettes go into ~/.gimp-2.2/palettes/
20:21.40kiozenis there a way to extract the palette from a bitmap?
20:21.56cr2gdalinfo
20:22.11kiozenright :)
20:22.54*** join/#htc-linux diogene31_ (n=rj@mur31-2-82-243-122-54.fbx.proxad.net)
20:22.56cr2to use convert, you'd convert this palette file in a 1x256 .pnm
20:23.10dcordesmarbalon: can you upload the small initrd?
20:23.24dcordespH5: can we make a git.linuxtogo.org msm git?
20:24.15cr2then you can do something like 'convert -map mypalette-8.pnm -depth 8  +dither file.jpg file8.png'
20:24.40marbalondcordes:  just right now ;) http://www.sendspace.com/file/in4uvu
20:24.45kiozenhm, that's all not nice enought for a noob tutorial
20:25.59cr2do you have some sample file ?
20:26.29cr2i think with gimp it's an easier way, but 'convert' is better when you have 1000 files.
20:27.08kiozencr2: well, the example from the tutorial
20:31.03cr2is there a 'save palette' option in gimp ?
20:31.47kiozenhaven't found one sofar
20:32.13marbalondcordes:  gpio 94 works fine, when I remove card pin=1, when card inserted pin=0
20:32.42cr2Image->Mode->Indexed...
20:33.12cr2is the color reduction menu where you want to chose the palette. dithering is usually a bad idea
20:33.52cr2Ctrl-P
20:34.27cr2there is 'edit', 'new', 'duplicate', 'delete' and 'refresh'.
20:34.38cr2but not save ;)
20:35.03cr2only 'new' and then 'save'
20:35.35cr2or other functions.
20:35.52cr2so you need to create in manually it seems ?
20:36.30kiozenok, let's say: get a copy of Photoshop and feel happy :)
20:37.55cr2Tools->Color picker
20:38.13cr2have zero experience with photoshop myself :)
20:38.33cr2BabelO: can one save the palette in gimp ?
20:38.51cr2from the indexed color image.
20:38.52kiozencr2: It's easy in Photoshop, I found out in 5 min.

20:42.01marbalondcordes: yes but no effect, but now I have kaiser_sdcc_slot_status working fine driver detect slot status change
20:43.02cr2kiozen: could have been a button ;)
20:43.14dcordes_marbalon: how do you check for gpios in your linuxbox?
20:44.14cr2kiozen: wtf it's in the right button menu, but the only entry missing from the standard icons ?
20:44.45marbalondcordes:  gpio_get_value(94);
20:45.32kiozencr2: huh? what menu
20:45.33kiozen?
20:45.52dcordes_marbalon: is that part of code or own program?
20:48.05marbalonno I put this in board-htcvogue.c in function mmc_platform_data.status
20:49.27marbalondcordes: like in board-halibut.c -> halibut_sdcc_slot_status
20:50.35dcordes_ah I see
20:50.53cr2kiozen: in the palette dialog
20:51.01dcordes_marbalon: and how do you scan gpios?
20:54.16marbalondcordes_: I only define this function, driver use it
