12:25.45ginge_anyone know what sort of touchscreen driver the HTC shift has?
12:26.03dcordes_morning
12:26.47ginge_morning
12:27.03ginge_just playing with the HTC shift :)
12:28.57dcordes_is it good?
12:29.06ginge_it's x86, so no.
12:29.43ginge_I was also assaulted with Vista on powerup
12:29.52dcordes_lol
12:30.12ginge_I would put Linux on there, but I don't think the guy who is letting me play with it would appreciate it ;)
12:30.56dcordes_angstrom
12:30.59ginge_really though, not a bad bit of kit
12:32.29ginge_do you know where we got the information about the kaiser havign a tsc2003? Is that confirmed or speculation?
12:32.50ginge_(other than the fact it seems to have the same i2c register layout)
12:34.10LanceHaig_I was going to ask a similar question after lurking here for a while
12:34.40LanceHaigI have a Kaiser and was to rid myself of windows is it possible yet?
12:35.32ginge_LanceHaig: almost. A few tings don't work as should be...
12:35.38dcordes_ginge_: sorry no clue. poke cr2 he has the pcb shots
12:35.48dcordes_creepy, cr2's not on
12:35.52ginge_LanceHaig: The list is shorter for what does work
12:36.11LanceHaigahh so it will be a while yet
12:36.27dcordes_ginge_: come on don't be that negative
12:36.28ginge_LanceHaig: It depends on how much you want working before you consider it usable
12:36.45dcordes_I'd consider it usable enough as soon as we have mmc
12:36.47ginge_LanceHaig: Personally I use it now, but the battery will only get me through 1 day
12:36.58LanceHaigthat is ok
12:37.11LanceHaigcan you sync with linux?
12:37.15LanceHaigconatcts that is
12:37.47ginge_LanceHaig: you can with GNU/Linux, depending on various configuration. At the moment we dn't have USB or mmc, so pretty hard to set up
12:37.52dcordes_LanceHaig: if you find out where android saves the contacts, scp would do the trick
12:38.04LanceHaigor should I ask is there a url so I don't ask to many questions?
12:38.05dcordes_through gprs
12:38.23ginge_dcordes_: better to write a proper java app to do it via xml etc
12:38.48dcordes_I'd gues such apps are already present
12:39.02ginge_yeah
12:39.10LanceHaigginge_, are you using haret to run android?
12:39.20ginge_yeah
12:39.21LanceHaigor just booting it
12:39.40LanceHaigahh I tried that and I always get stuck in contacts and can't get out
12:39.41ginge_its the only way to hop into Linux at the moment (at least on Kaiser)
12:40.08LanceHaigok I see now, I will have to wait a while still then
12:40.13LanceHaigthanks though
12:40.20ginge_you can try it now without breaking stuff
12:40.50ginge_http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396782
12:41.06ginge_if you want to read the whole thread, you might want to take a day out ;)
12:41.18ginge_post 1 has the information on how to get into Android.
12:41.42LanceHaigcool I will try that
12:41.50LanceHaighave not seen that thread before
12:42.02ginge_good luck
12:42.09*** join/#htc-linux pronto (n=pronto@pool-71-179-232-167.bltmmd.fios.verizon.net)
12:42.59LanceHaigthanks
12:43.44prontoyou're welcome
12:43.46pronto:)
12:45.49ginge_dcordes_: so I got something vaguely resembling calibration on the Kaiser, at least enough that tslib can cope with it now. Any thoughts on Android alibration?
12:46.03*** join/#htc-linux LanceHaig_ (n=LanceHai@mx1.redarmour.co.uk)
12:46.42dcordes_no clue about android cal
12:47.08dcordes_n'either I do know much about calibration in windows honestly
12:47.11dcordes_lol
12:47.15dcordes_s/windows/angstrom/
12:47.58*** join/#htc-linux dcordes (n=dcordes@unaffiliated/dcordes)
12:48.09ginge_dcordes_: basically there is none ;) You need a set of tools (tslib tscalibrate xcalibrate etc)that have some complex algorithms in them to correct for errors.
12:48.51dcordesginge_: the X11 images come with the required calibration stuff
12:49.02dcordesshould we try debug X?
12:49.21ginge_as I know nothing at all about angstrom package management, could you put the calibration packages into a console angstrom?
12:50.29kiozenginge add tslib-calibrate to console-image.bb
12:57.50ginge_kaizen: thanks. I guess I should read the instructions at some point ;)
12:58.00ginge_s/kaizen/kiozen/
12:58.17kiozenginge_: haven't found that in any docs :)
12:59.17kiozenginge_: ANGSTROM_EXTRA_INSTALL ?= "proj-4 gdal tslib tslib-calibrate"
13:00.52dcordeskiozen: will we be able to make use of tslib tslib-calibrate inside console-image?
13:01.07ginge_dcordes: yes
13:01.13kiozenyes :)
13:20.18dcordesginge_: I updated setupmodem and rebuilt the image. hope it will work
13:20.40dcordesdoes the updated script go together well with the init?.? on your server?
13:22.05ginge_dcordes: the setupmodem script doesn't need init1 or init1.1 anymore
13:24.54ginge_it is actually a bit of hack, but should work
13:25.59dcordesginge_: but the presence of the two will not break anything?
13:26.37ginge_no. They will just be ignored
13:27.26ginge_all it does instead of cat'ting the init1 file to smd is to send the at sequence directly as an escaped string.

14:51.41dcordesginge: it doesn't seem to work
14:51.53dcordeslooks like android freezes when starting to produce net traffic
14:55.28ginge_well, I can't see how that would be the case. Can you try your old android image with the new zimage?
14:55.43ginge_I heard rumours that the cvs zimage was fubar
14:56.46dcordeswhich new zImage?
14:56.55ginge_since smd updates
14:57.27dcordesI'm running zImage with the kaiser-smd.c in git
14:59.05ginge_um... how can I be online, the machine is ...
15:00.16ginge_heh. caught in the act. I guess I should password protect my things before prying fingers start poking through my personal files.
15:00.27ginge_anyhoo.
15:00.49ginge_dcordes: does that zimage work in angstrom?
15:01.20*** join/#htc-linux Alex[sp3dev] (n=Alexande@86.110.163.25)
15:01.38dcordeshm? yes I can get online in angstrom
15:01.48dcordesand android also shows G and the network stat
15:01.49ginge_ok
15:02.32ginge_did you alter your image to allow proc_comm for anything other than vibrate?
15:03.34dcordesyes this doesn't work
15:03.45dcordesmakes the kernel hang after takeover
15:04.47dcordesnow I made a call, afterwards tried to get online in the browser app
15:04.49dcordesand it froze
15:05.08ginge_let me try mine again
15:07.53ginge_is the zImage in the "kaiser bootkit" data enabled?
15:08.04dcordesnow it didn't freeze, I tried to google something, it said network error unknown host
15:08.16dcordesginge should be
15:08.20effbiaidcordes: hi :)
15:08.41dcordeshi effbiai
15:08.51ginge_dcordes: shit
15:09.00effbiaiyou pinged me last day. any news about the kernel?
15:09.02ginge_dcordes: /system/bin/echo not found
15:09.31dcordeswhere?
15:10.04ginge_in modemsetup.sh where I put that apn
15:10.12ginge_strangely it works for me anyway
15:10.18dcordeseffbiai: no. I tried to put something together with less kaiser specific stuff.
15:10.29effbiaiah, okay
15:10.36dcordesit didn't work
15:10.41effbiairoger that
15:10.45dcordesI looked for an older build but didn't find anything
15:11.17effbiaitoo bad :\
15:11.49dcordesprobably martin__ or ginge have one older build
15:12.06dcordesI'm quite sure that other niki person was able to boot kaiser kernel once
15:12.14dcordesyou did try dzo's vogue builds, didn't you?
15:16.56effbiaino, only http://linuxtogo.org/~lgorris/kaiser-bootkit/
15:18.27ginge_dcordes: I loaded up about half of slashdit and then it locked
15:18.29ginge_dcordes: disable all smd stuff and try it again
15:18.37ginge_dcordes: OK I think I know why it didn't work...
15:18.45ginge_android doesn't ship echo as part of the distro
15:18.49ginge_and the built in bash echo doesn't support sending carriage returns
15:18.53ginge_plan B then
15:20.50dcordeslol they don't even put a busybox..
15:21.26ginge_dcordes: it sucks. I think I have it fixed anyway
15:21.35dcordeseffbiai: http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/
15:21.47dcordesmake a new dir with all the stuff there
15:24.26ginge_dcordes: If you get some time, can you see if that works. (same url) I have no real broadband to speak of at the moment, so can't test for a few hours.
15:25.49effbiaidcordes: freezes on the same point. tho this one didn't turn on the bluetooth diode - last kernel turned the bluetooth diode on
15:26.44ginge_dcordes: I just tried with the "working" android and it still freezes after a while.
15:28.33ginge_and by "working" I mean everything from the bootkit default (apart from my apn)

15:43.15MarexpH5: hi ;)
15:43.34pH5hi Marex
15:44.56Alex[sp3dev]hello, Marex. i heard PalmTX wifi works now? it is cf8381? have you made any changes to libertas? i wonder because my pda (asus 525)  is made by asus like palm and has the same wifi

15:50.57dcordessounds like htc-egpio bootup config on kaiser triggers bluetooth led on nikki
15:52.26effbiaiprolly
15:52.46dcordesdzo doesn't use htc-egpio
16:01.18paulproteusgoxboxlive, Now I am.
16:02.55MarexAlex[sp3dev]: added card id and commented out real firmware loading
16:03.13Alex[sp3dev]oh,nice.
16:03.17MarexAlex[sp3dev]: then if you turn it on in wince, it should work, see hackndev.com
16:03.28Marexbtw Im talking here about mainline kernel
16:03.52MarexpH5: looks like palmtx is actually pretty near
16:04.24Alex[sp3dev]yes. i think, i will migrate to mainline as soon as i finish suspend and i2c. too bad hh doesnt have complete patch list
16:04.56Alex[sp3dev]and according to hackndev, the fw dumper is added? have you tried loading the firmware?
16:05.10Marexyea, that doesnt work yet
16:05.46Marexand fw dumper is for cocoboot, you need some other util, cocoboot is for palmos
16:06.21Alex[sp3dev]and, btw, just as we are talking about palm. do you use max1586 for apm? (as for fw dumper, i dont say i need it,i just asked. pretty sure i can dump it from wince)
16:07.59Marexthere is some chip in palmtx called max15xx, but I dunno how to access it
16:08.12Marexso it's for powermanagement :)
16:08.16Alex[sp3dev]it is on pxa2xx-i2c.1, pwm_i2c
16:08.22Alex[sp3dev]address 0x14
16:08.48Marexis it any use ?
16:09.56Alex[sp3dev]i think it can be used to change voltage and battery measurment, have a look at the code in hh kernel, pxa27x_voltage_max158xx.c
16:12.37pH5the max158xx driver should work if it's on the PWRI2C. not sure what if some clown connected it to the normal i2c.
16:13.06pH5anyway, that driver should probably be rewritten to use the regulator framework once it hits mainline.
16:13.16Alex[sp3dev]it is on pwri2c, pxa2xx-i2c.1 is pwm_i2c
16:13.30pH5ah, then you should be fine.
16:15.15Alex[sp3dev]the only thing annoys me. i don`t quite understand the way asusa730_buttons handles i2c buttons...could anyone help? in newer mainline kernels there is a driver for pca953x gpio expanders, will i be able to use those as normal gpio pins with gpio keys driver?
16:15.15MarexpH5: well ;)
16:17.54pH5Alex[sp3dev]: depends on whether they are just gpio buttons or need some kind of matrix scan.
16:18.17Alex[sp3dev]they are just gpio buttons, not matrix
16:18.25pH5~lart git build for failing on various tests
16:18.26aptstamps git build on the forehead with the official Troll marker for failing on various tests
16:19.25pH5Alex[sp3dev]: does the pca953x have irq triggers for every gpio?
16:19.38Alex[sp3dev]no, one single trigger for all pins
16:21.23pH5Alex[sp3dev]: no interrupt register? then I'm not sure if it would be best to fake a irqchip in the pca953x driver or to add a new gpio_keys-like driver that doesn't need one irq per gpio. probably the latter.
16:27.01Alex[sp3dev]i am now trying to make it the way it is done in asusa730_buttons.c in hh. the way it is done there - they read pca9535 data, then i2c_data = (~(i2c_data>>8) & 0x1F); i understand the shifting - they are not interested in first 8 pins. but then they do "bits = i2c_data ^ last_i2c_data". the thing i don`t get at all is how they calculated 0x1f'
16:28.59pH5I don't think hardcoding this is very nice. There sure are other devices that use the same mechanism (gpio buttons on i2c gpio expander with single irq).
16:30.04Alex[sp3dev]actually, it is not nice at all. i will have to go mainline or backport the i2c driver from 2.6.26 - because this expander holds other interesting pins as well
16:30.41pH5Alex[sp3dev]: my opinion is the same as always: go mainline! :)
16:30.56pH5good morning mickeyl
16:31.10mickeylhi pH5
16:35.44MarexpH5: j/w when I post patches to RMK's patch tracker, where will they appear ? in devel or where ?
16:36.46pH5Marex: yes. depending on the patch he puts them into the different branches (fixes/pxa/pxa-pwm/etc.) and then merges them together into devel
16:37.12MarexpH5: how often does "then" happen  ? ;)
16:38.18pH5hm, good question. I think once or twice a week.
16:38.23pH5could be completely wrong though.
16:39.10pH5mark's ssp changes haven't been merged for quite some time.
16:40.41MarexpH5: ok :)
16:45.01MarexpH5: iirc RMK said something about devel not being synced for some time
16:45.21pH5yeah, he's not a machine after all

22:01.18gingeis there is specific error?
22:04.19dcordesginge: #ts_calibrate
22:04.26dcordests_open: No such file or directory
22:05.58marajinphocus: Android isn't an OS really just an interface/layer overlinux, and no we're mostly working on the Kaiser, Vogue and er...mogul? what's the other one?
22:07.28ginge<PROTECTED>
22:07.33gingeoops :)
22:07.48dcordests_open binary is not in the packages OE spits
22:08.02dcordeslet me check if the source is fetched
22:08.32gingeyeah
22:08.51gingeI just found this:
22:08.51ginge" Look in the /etc/tslib.conf and uncomment the lines that are right for your model.  "
22:18.39dcordesginge: I fear no line matches our model
22:19.06dcordesI wonder if I cross compile ts_open manually, other binaries will be missing
22:19.11gingepick one similar?
22:20.38dcordeshttp://rafb.net/p/NPyr4Z47.html
22:22.00gingeI would think we want to use the event interface, but not sure
22:40.23gingedcordes: did android data work when you hardcoded the apn into the init1 file?
22:48.02gingedcordes: check teh setupmodem on my server. It works now.
22:49.06dcordesginge: ok. now I'm making a new console image
22:49.22dcordesinstead of manually putting the stuff in I'll try and let OE do it correctly
22:49.46gingedcordes: it still locks up in android though. it is actually the same problem I reported several days ago with the data connection.
22:50.07gingeI mean, how many people have actually tested data on android?
22:50.20dcordesI don't know check the forum
22:50.31gingeconsidering it requires a full image rebuild for the apn, I am guessing none
22:50.44gingeother than people here
22:51.02gingemarajin: you are kaiser, right?
22:51.20dcordeswant me to make a new build, upload and announce it in the forum?
22:51.21marajinginge: Kaiser Wilhelm the Second
22:51.25marajinsalutes.
22:51.31gingelol
22:51.35dcordes:)
22:51.36marajinginge: Yeah I have a Kaiser and a hermes =)
22:51.47gingedid you try any of the android images with the data connection?
22:52.15marajinnope, I wasn't aware I could yet
22:52.24marajinwell without editing the initrd?
22:52.36marajinor do the kernel arguments work now?
22:52.48gingeI just fixed that. Hopefully dcordes will do a new image, if not I can upload mine
22:53.31dcordeswhy not putting yours if you already have one?
22:53.45gingeI think it still crashes after accessing the data for a while
22:53.53marajinconsistency in built options?
22:54.08gingeyeah, and I cant upload to your webspace ;)
22:54.10dcordesI'm busy with the tscal image
22:54.24dcordesok wait a minute
22:54.25marajinwe really don't need 22 different builds except for private testing purposes I figure
22:54.51gingei'm uploading mine
22:55.11gingeslowly :/
22:55.28marajinpedal faster!
22:55.50gingeI am already using all the pedal power to cook this egg with a hairdryer
22:55.57marajinhah :P
22:55.58dcordesuploading
22:56.05marajinSend kryten to fix the backup generators
22:56.40marajinI really should sort out perses for compiling images and whatnot and start working myself at some point
22:57.19gingeyeah, its pretty easy. I found a guide somewhere... dcordes can probly supply links :P
22:57.21dcordesapply for a job at openhand, marajin
22:57.33marajinat who what now?
22:57.44gingeopenhand? is that some jibe at scrounging from the government?
22:58.01marajinI think it's probably a german thing to do with open mobile platforms
22:58.10marajinthey call mobiles "handys"
22:58.26gingeoh yeah, I saw that on QI
22:58.45marajinI had a german GF for a while so kinda already knew long before QI existed
22:59.03gingegets all info from QI and the internet
22:59.06dcordeshttp://o-hand.com/
22:59.07marajinhah :)
22:59.14marajinQI /is/ good though
22:59.25marajincan't wait for the next season
22:59.30marajinand mock the week
22:59.42gingeyup
22:59.50dcordeswhat's QI?
23:00.06marajindcordes: It is a british TV show called QI (for QUite Interesting)
23:00.41dcordeshttp://linuxtogo.org/~lgorris/kaiser-bootkit/android-data.bin
23:00.43marajindcordes: They have several famous people on as guests for each show and they are asked questions that people generally won't know or think they know but are commonly wrong.
23:00.50gingewow your upload is good
23:01.02ginge81%
23:01.05marajindcordes: They give points out more for being interesting rather than being correct though.
23:01.10dcordes100K I've got
23:01.12marajindcordes: Once the audience won..
23:01.21marajindcordes: And once the guy who asks the questions lost
23:01.30ginge50 megabit per second down, 1bit per year up :/
23:01.42marajinginge: Hah :) I get er 1.6Mbps =)
23:01.53gingevirgin media, remember ;)
23:01.53dcordesand they had a german person in the show with a cell phone?
23:02.05gingeno, it was a "quite interesting" fact
23:02.09marajindcordes: No no, they just mentioned that germans call them a 'handy'
23:02.37marajinHeh, could you imagine a stereotypical german on QI?
23:02.42marajinthey'd be so lost -.-
23:02.53marajinI've met germans nowadays with a good grasp of sarcasm even but heh
23:03.10gingemarajin: ok, mine uploaded too :) fwiw http://www.headfuzz.co.uk/files/android/initrd-android.cpio.gz
23:03.22marajinCultural differences would completely destroy their grasp of the humour I think
23:04.06marajinright, I'll do some tests in a minute, but first, pizza must be had
23:04.13gingemmmm pizza
23:04.29marajindcordes: Oh and if you're bored enough you'll find a lot of the shows on youtube by searching "quite interesting"
23:04.31dcordesginge: did you test yours yourself?
23:04.45gingeyes, worked this time
23:04.57gingeI forgot to prepend the string with busybox
23:05.44dcordesthe one I uploaded is basically dzo's latest with your init* files and setupmodem.sh
23:06.10gingeok, same as mine then
23:09.59marajinok back
23:12.08dcordesthey talk too fast and british for me to understand
23:13.01marajindcordes: yeah, that's my point, and even if you knew the words I'm not sure you'd understand them sometimes
23:13.46marajinDoes germany have any similar TV shows I wonder
23:14.33dcordesthey say of the acropolis
23:15.09marajinof that the name of the show?
23:15.56dcordesmarajin: I'm not quite getting the point in what they do
23:16.14marajindcordes: They're sarcastic and er. "take the piss" a lot..
23:16.26dcordesthey take the piss?
23:16.34marajinyeah I was trying to think of how to explain that
23:16.47marajingetting anyone outside the UK to understand "taking the piss"... not easy
23:17.00gingepoking fun
23:17.08dcordesto mock someone
23:17.16marajinwell if you want to oversimply it yeah
23:17.30dcordesTo greedily demand an unreasonable effort or price.
23:17.33gingein a friendly way, in jest
23:18.37marajinyeah. It involves taking advantage of literalness and people not understanding sarcasm, or of making unrealistic demands, or just plain being mocking.. it means a lot of things
23:18.54marajinanyway
23:19.21marajinBasically it's 90% them being comedians and 9% them getting the questions wrong and being told the true answer
23:19.42marajinand the last 1% is just randomness
23:19.56gingemarajin: if you want to test you need the latest zimage, the new android image, and the following in the "set cmdline" field in default.txt: ppp.username=yourusername ppp.pass=password ppp.apn=youraccesspoint
23:20.24marajinohyeah, that was what I meant to ask before I was trying to think how to explain take the piss :P
23:21.27gingeI need to know if android crashes for anyone other than me
23:21.30marajin... what's the difference between zImage and zImage.bin btw?
23:22.13dcordesgoogle is taking the piss out of android users, not including a terminal application into the builds
23:22.15gingeI think dcordes renamed them so the webserver didnt serve plaintext
23:22.17marajinNothing, I guess
23:22.23marajindcordes: Haha, very true
23:22.32dcordeswas that applied correctly?
23:22.35marajinginge: ...wget ftw
23:22.37marajindcordes: Yep
23:22.47gingeyeah. try telling a newb that ;)
23:22.57marajinginge: rightio
23:23.03marajinNewbies! Use wget! kthxbye!
23:23.14marajinI can tell them, what you mean is try getting a newb to understand that ;)
23:23.18dcordesright I put the .bin because of people kept complaining their webbrowsers would not download them but display the files as text
23:23.30marajinmuppets can't right click and save as?
23:23.38gingedcordes: I don't think it is google's fault. It's not exactly like we are using like it is intended
23:23.57marajinginge: It would have been handy even on the emulator so actully, he's got a point
23:23.59dcordesyea of course I talked about this in #android
23:24.04dcordesterminal? what's that?
23:24.17gingedcordes: Also, if we ever get a connection over usb/wifi/bluetooth you can telnet into a shell from port 4321 onwards
23:24.39dcordessomebody said there was one, but it would be useless since android ui is ran in some strange usermode
23:24.45gingemarajin: the emulator opens ports to a shell
23:24.52marajinginge: Oh, coolio :)
23:25.11gingesame with the emulator
23:25.25gingeohm I just said that
23:25.32gingeneeds sleep
23:25.37marajinhah :P
23:25.41marajinor caffeine
23:25.45dcordesoh my new console-image build has finished
23:25.49marajinyay
23:26.05gingemy kettle broke and I have to boil water on my electric hob. I timed it boiling 1 cup of water at 19 minutes from cold
23:26.07marajinis copying dcordes data build + the latest zImage.bin to his kaiser.
23:26.17dcordescd thckaiser
23:26.23marajinginge: ...microwave it dude for gods sake
23:26.31marajinginge: 2 minutes at extreme max
23:26.31gingeshit never thought of that
23:26.33gingehow long for?
23:26.35gingeok
23:26.46marajinginge: try 1 minute, check temp, do another minute if needed
23:27.00marajinunless you have a megalithic cup 2 minutes is the max needed
23:27.12marajinand obviously microwave just plain water :P
23:27.12gingewow. its always the simple things that truly impress me. Thanks :)
23:27.59marajingee thanks :P Marajin, king of the saying simple things in IRC.
23:28.20gingeyou know what I mean :P
23:28.29marajinyeah I know what you mean!

23:28.53gingebows his head in shame
23:30.06gingeI just love super simple solutions. The elegance etc.
23:31.09marajinI just love waiting 19 minutes to boil a cup of water :P
23:31.47ginge“Making the simple complicated is commonplace; making the complicated simple, awesomely simple, that's creativity.”
23:32.04marajinshameful you mean? ;)
23:32.32marajinNah I know where you're coming from, sometimes you get so used to dealing with the complex, you forget how to do simple
23:32.41gingeexactly
23:32.58gingethen when you discover simple, it blows you away
23:33.00marajinMan the things I've solderd and wired together
23:33.15marajinand then thought "....or I could just put these two wires there and the whole thing was pointles.."
23:33.56gingeyeah, I know what you mean. I went though several years of that while building a robot.
23:35.03marajinI'm a bugger for hack-fixing things with elaborate solutions when splicing one or two wires would be fine
23:35.20gingeI am just a bugger for fixing things are not broken
23:35.21marajinI don't feel right throwing anything out till I've soldered half of it into a lump :p
23:35.27gingelol

23:35.41marajindude you should see the inside of a Wii I was playing with :P
23:35.50marajinI fixed the motherfucker too
23:35.56gingewow
23:36.11gingenever seen inside the wii. I dare not open mine
23:36.35marajinthen gave it to my friend and bought a new one because the one I fixed was fine for authentic discs but chipping it would have needed me to solder to the legs of an IC
23:36.37gingeI have what is known in the electronics world as the "electrical touch of death"
23:37.14marajinheh
23:38.08marajinyeah well soldering stuff to a GF7900GT or inside the wii can get fun trust me
23:38.34marajinsoldering surface mount stuff is a /BITCH/
23:38.41marajinand I'm not super steady handed myself
23:38.42gingehmm. Kicker crashed about a week ago, and is still in the process of crashing out.the taskbar has finally just closed
23:38.52marajin...
23:38.54marajinrofl
23:38.56gingesurface mount is really easy with a bread toaster
23:39.03marajinheh
23:39.11marajinGF7900s do not fit in bread toasters
23:39.25marajinalso I was not going to put a then 250 pound graphics card into a toaster
23:39.35gingeyou need a hot air solering gun mod. Soldering iron + fish tank pump
23:39.55marajinI did succeed man, it's just nerve-wracking :P
23:40.01ginge:)
23:41.34marajinright booting android-data
23:41.41gingenow the kernel just oopsed. I wonder how long I can keep this running in a severly crippled state. Who needs usb or a taskbar
23:42.15marajinYou can take our USB, you can take our taskbar, but you can never take our geekdoooooom!
23:42.33marajin...shit I have a G icon and a signal indicator O.O
23:42.35gingeas soon as kicker finished crashing I can at least relaunch it
23:42.47gingegood sign!
23:43.40marajinmaps doesn't seem to load anything and browser says unknown host tho'
23:43.56gingehmm. apn right inthe kernel?
23:44.10marajinI think so, I'm trying to remember the o2 settings
23:44.33marajinI gather android doesn't do G/E/3G/H icons (yet) ?
23:44.38marajinI should have E here
23:44.41gingeAPN address: mobile.o2.co.ukUsername: mobilewebPassword: password
23:44.46ginge?
23:44.59marajinhmm ah I think I may have put .com, d'oh
23:45.01marajinone sec
23:45.54gingedont know about the G E etc. i don't know if we can even switch into anything but GRPS.
23:47.34marajinbooting into android again
23:47.42marajinI should check if calls are defucked to
23:48.36marajinthat's doing something, my headset is buzzing
23:49.14marajin'Oops the network seems to be down" followed by it seemed to freeze
23:49.25gingedoing what?
23:49.33marajinopening maps
23:49.39marajinalso the G icon looks greyed =/
23:49.55marajinNope it's well jammed
23:49.59gingehow bizarre. are you using the dcordes build, or mine
23:50.12gingeandroid crashes a lot. irritatingly the kernel is fine.
23:50.27marajindcordes
23:50.44gingeill try it
23:50.48marajinI'm fairly sure it should be able tomaintain a GPRS/EDGE signal here.
23:51.27marajinbut yeah, I crashed the emulator at least 4 times in 20 minutes of playing
23:52.14marajinI don't need to do anyting special in WM before booting android right?
23:52.26gingeno
23:52.32marajin...whoa, deja vu.. scary... really scary deja vu
23:52.36gingeat least I dont
23:52.44marajinI think I just quad deja vu'd
23:54.02gingetry the browser before maps
23:54.22marajinI think it's trying to connect to GPRS but failing. the buzz disappears after a short while =/
23:55.40gingesyync
23:55.57marajinyeah but then it just says network error
23:56.04gingenot only was that the wrong window, but I spelled it properly
23:56.12marajinOh, hang on, one last thing to try
23:56.15ginges/properly/improperly/
23:57.12gingegoing to try the dcordes image now
23:57.17marajin...nope, grey G with no buzz and "unknown host"
23:59.05gingebooting... same as yours.
23:59.12gingetry my image
23:59.23*** join/#htc-linux dcordes (n=dcordes@unaffiliated/dcordes)
