00:27.31dcordesany git pros around?
00:32.51dcordesnighthawk08: man I have no clue why this doesn't work. hope pH5 or some other git gurus will be around tomorrow
00:33.18nighthawk08then we wait until tomorrow?
00:34.23dcordeshm yea. also tomorrow we can bug the guys who developed the himalaya kernel

00:38.39NAiLdcordes: I've tested it. "Works" is a bit of an overstatement, isn't it? No sound/gsm ;)
00:38.48NAiLOr have I missed a never version?

01:57.24dcordesselect a branch at the bottom
01:57.26pigeonor perhaps my real question is, is that automatically updated? or someone has to do it?

04:02.37UberFlyGuess I'm not the only TyTN II user who's fed up with WM6.1
04:09.26miknixUberFly, I would say WM* instead
04:09.46UberFlyMiknix: You just went up a notch in my book :#
04:09.48UberFly:3 *
04:11.09miknixUberFly, new opera mobile has awesome usability, did you try it?
04:11.25UberFlyNo, not yet
04:11.33UberFlyI'm yet to put andriod on my TyTN II
04:11.52UberFlyI'm not liking the lack of bluetooth / vibration
04:11.55UberFlyand power management
04:12.10UberFlyI just wish I knew more about how to program for these things
04:12.18UberFlyI'm a 4th year software engineer at RMIT university
04:12.27UberFlyand I'd be more than happy to learn if someone were willing to teach
04:13.54miknixUberFly, cloning the git repo and get yourself familiar with the kernel tree and machine board files is a good start
04:14.20UberFlyHmm
04:15.23UberFlyI'm currently running (and I know I will loose geek influence for stating it) windows Vista (mainly due to power issues, I've got a Toshiba pheonix bios that Linux can't communicate with) - For this sort of stuff, I'd have to be running a *nix distro, right?
04:15.45UberFlyI have a copy of Fedora Core 8 installed on an 8gb usb drive if it's recommended for this type of development.
04:17.50miknixVista? there is no way you can do kernel hacking on such crap. Unless you get a remote terminal to some unix box somewhere else
04:19.09miknixs/kernel/linux/
04:26.52dcordesUberFly: I agree. you need not much space for the local git tree so your fedora usb drive will probably do
04:27.25UberFlyCool, thanks guys
04:27.51UberFlyI'll try to catch up on it over the next week, I'll contribute anything I can
04:28.49dcordesUberFly: do you know xda-developers.com?
04:29.05UberFlyYeah
04:29.11UberFlyI've been there many a time before.
04:29.29UberFlycurrently on it now to install HardSPL on my Kaiser
04:29.36dcordesthere is a thread for android on kaiser. look at the first site, it has an isntruction on how to build the kernel.
04:29.56UberFlyOh? I must have missed that -_-
04:30.04UberFlyThanks dcordes!

08:10.45miknixBabelO, latest typhoonnbfdecode.pl worked
08:13.50BabelO_miknix: good, so you are able to boot from sd now :)
08:13.56miknixyeah
08:17.24miknixI'm not sure what to look next. are you using the typhoon GSM driver?
08:21.58BabelO_miknix: i ve tried it, but not working for me, i have to check the whole driver with asm
08:22.39miknixBabelO, is it also builtin in the windows mobile kernel or is it a separate module?
08:24.11BabelO_miknix: builtin for me i can see the gsm part and audio routing
08:24.25miknixok.. I'm also going to take a look
08:25.24miknixaudio routing is important for me.. I have to properly set it up for having audio output
08:25.54BabelO_miknix: do you know someone working on audio ?
08:26.45miknixno
08:28.06miknixBabelO, can you tell the offset where you traced the audio routing code?
08:29.25BabelO_miknix: i did not trace it, i just see it in the asm
08:29.49BabelO_miknix: routing is just a part, but produce sound is better
08:32.35miknixBabelO, can you give me some register being accessed in that piece of code?
08:32.52miknixI would like to have a look at it here
08:38.23BabelO_miknix: just look at EAC driver at typhhon git
08:39.15BabelO_miknix: but i m not really sure that artemis and wizard use EAC, i think they use an external chipset, but can't check, i did not have picture of the board
08:40.10miknixhum..
08:40.34miknixwe don't need it for making/receiving calls anyway
08:40.50kiozenBabelO_:  can you try to svn up M, I am not sure if sf.net is down or my firewall jumps at me
08:53.16*** join/#htc-linux zoolooc (n=lucian@nrbg-4dbf95f2.pool.einsundeins.de)
09:00.45BabelO_kiozen: down :)
09:01.12kiozenBabelO_: thanks, do we have alternatives to sf.net?
09:01.51BabelO_kiozen: you mean mirror
09:02.26kiozennope, alternative service, quality of sf.net sucks from year to year more
09:02.36BabelO_miknix: but if you don't have driver, then you need tricks at boot time, and you lost power
09:04.02BabelO_kiozen: even the svn web interface is down :)
09:04.33kiozenBabelO_: there was an outage schedules for yesterday
09:05.00BabelO_kiozen: do you see SAGA GIS software ?
09:05.12kiozenno
09:06.19kiozenBabelO_: looks pretty scientific, I am more on the consumer side :)
09:07.35BabelO_kiozen: maybe for cr2 then :)
09:08.06kiozen:))))))))
09:10.12BabelO_kiozen: consumer side -> http://roadnav.sourceforge.net/index.php
09:32.54ptlhow good is roadnav compared to TomTom or iGO ?
09:35.17BabelO_ptl: too young i think, and just using openstreetmap ... coverage is not so big

11:26.40tymchnanyone familiar with android on the kaiser?
11:38.28marajintymchn: sure, what's up?
11:38.51tymchnI keep getting a kernel panic on boot, trying to kill init :(
11:39.17tymchnI am just using the prezipped package from http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/
11:39.19NAiLBabelO_: You're behind linux on the artemis?
11:40.03marajintymchn: They don'twrk on the kaiser. There's a bug in the SD code.
11:40.37tymchnoh bum, do I have to run from memory then or is there a kaiser build?
11:40.54marajintymchn: Unfortunately you have to run entirely from an initrd yeah.
11:41.14marajintymchn: Angstrom will boot from SD tho'
11:41.47marajinsadly android is frankly rather unstable in general
11:42.04tymchnangstrom? is that another android bundle?
11:42.17marajinNo, it's a pure linux distro
11:42.57tymchnfor the kaiser? :O nice!
11:43.04marajinI can boot my kaiser to console with it. Technically we can start X but it's not talking to the touchscreen right so we can't use X really.
11:43.21marajinYou do understand that android is just a GUI over linux right?
11:45.02marajinWe chatted at some point about making a pure console phone though :D
11:45.23marajinusing just commandline or ncurses
11:45.40tymchnodd it still kernel panics even when running from memory

11:46.14tymchnyeah I know that, just keen to play with it instead of something like opie
11:46.15gingeyo
11:46.26tymchnlol yeah, that might be it then
11:46.54marajintymchn: Try the stuff from... http://linuxtogo.org/~lgorris/kaiser-bootkit/
11:47.09marajinginge: How was it going with the SD bug that was stopping us booting android from SD?
11:47.50gingemarajin: well... not so great. I had an hour at it last night but got nowhere. Having trouble getting the brain to engage
11:48.38marajinginge: Too tuckered out after hauling boxes and assembling swedish flatpack furniture?
11:48.48gingemarajin: thats the one
11:49.23gingemarajin: I might leave that and get bluetooth going. its a pain to trace without connectivity
11:49.25marajinGuess we'd better break out the 'phet for ya :P

11:50.08gingemarajin: I just need coffee, and a skipload too
11:50.16marajinginge: Hmm, I was just thinking that last night actually.. Dev's stalled cause we're stuck on a coupla particular annoying points so maybe it'd be worth getting something else working and take a break from the annoying points.
11:50.32marajinwho knows, you might have an epiphany while you're half way through bluetooth, audio or PM code
11:50.40gingemarajin: yeah, or sdc will send me to the grave
11:51.02marajinginge: I'll pour a pint over for you in that case ;)
11:51.08gingemarajin: funny you should say that about the audio... I have some traces that look interesting. A little side project maybe
11:51.33gingemarajin: :)QDom: saving invalid character &#xdeb5;, the document will not be well-formed
11:51.39gingeuh?
11:51.43gingekde 4.1 for you
11:52.02marajinginge: Well get some of the other stuff working and we could just do our console/ncurses only phone image :D
11:52.21gingemarajin: no joy with X?
11:52.36marajinginge: Naw getting X to listen to the TS is a headache too.
11:52.49marajinI don't think anyone really knows what's wrong with it at this point
11:52.59gingemarajin: symptoms?
11:53.20marajinIt just doesn't react to TS events?
11:53.36marajinIt's worth checking with dcordes_ for the latest on it I guess. I've been busy/away the last day or so myself
11:53.39gingemarajin: hmm.
11:53.51gingemarajin: okay, will do.
11:53.59gingebrb smoke time
11:55.32gingewhoa re active kaisers devs at the moment?
11:57.08marajinginge: um.... only active kaiser people at all at the moment are pretty much you, me and dcordes_
11:57.53gingemarajin: ok. well I need to go to the shop to get more tobacconated goodies... brb as soon as I find any shops.
11:58.22marajinginge: Right you are
12:00.03BabelO_NAiL: yes it s me
12:01.06tymchnyaye its booting, love the knightrider animation!
12:01.31NAiLBabelO_: Thanks ;) Been trying out Qtopia a bit, being stuck at qnetwalk for a while :-P
12:01.46BabelO_NAiL: lol
12:01.55BabelO_NAiL: which level ?
12:02.51BabelO_NAiL: you have an gps app on it too, you just need to create your own maps
12:02.51NAiLI'm still at "amateur", a bit too early in the morning for me :P
12:03.14NAiLIt looks *excellent*. What work would be needed for gsm to work?
12:03.57tymchnhow do I exit the androi globe application?
12:04.13tymchnnevermind I think it has crashed
12:10.00BabelO_NAiL: i ve some code, need to debug it and to find what's wrong with artemis... but it should work soon
12:10.18BabelO_NAiL: code is at linuxtogo git
12:10.19NAiLnice
12:10.39NAiLWill it be possible to run from internal flash eventually?
12:11.30BabelO_NAiL: not at the moment, and internal flash look like a docG4... this kind of flash as no driver for linux at the moment, only experimental read is availaible somewhere
12:12.01BabelO_NAiL: other solution if you have an unlock CID phone is to boot directly to sd card after doing a reset from wince
12:12.03NAiLDiskOnChip?
12:12.09NAiLhates DoC
12:12.18BabelO_NAiL: yes
12:13.30NAiLhmm. Probably a newb question, but how do I boot directly from sd?
12:14.06NAiLneeds to get another sdhc card
12:15.03marajintymchn: For what it's worth, that's actually meant to be a Cylon (From battle star galactica). Android, Cylon, Get it?
12:15.25NAiLooh... 16gb sdhc.
12:15.50tymchnah very good, shame the kaiser isnt more chromey lol
12:16.06marajintymchn: And yeah it will have crashed probably, like I said, android is a weeee bit unstable :P
12:16.08gingeholds aloft a magic pot noodle, and utters the words "I have the hungerrrr"
12:16.25marajinpats Ginge on the head and munches his scrambled chuckies on toast.
12:16.26BabelO_NAiL: first you have to CID unlock your phone, it is not like carrier unlock
12:16.42BabelO_NAiL: after that you have to get EOL booloader
12:16.51gingemarajin: mmm that does sound good. Now I think I saw a cooker in here somewhere
12:16.53BabelO_NAiL: look here http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/Artemis
12:17.08BabelO_NAiL: wouah, never try sdhc with linux
12:17.09marajinginge: It's under a box
12:17.12marajin:p
12:17.20marajinBabelO_: Why not?
12:17.25NAiLBabelO_: CID-unlock is to flash custom firmware, right? I've cooked my own once or twice
12:17.51BabelO_NAiL: yes, so you have permanent CID unlock, or just the uspl stuff ?
12:18.00NAiLBabelO_: Why not sdhc? I'm running your linux from my sdhc-card now.
12:18.06BabelO_NAiL: i buyed the 20eur unlock code
12:18.29BabelO_NAiL: ah, very good to heard, i ve never tried, no sdhc card here
12:18.31marajinBabelO_: s/buyed/bought/ ;)
12:18.33NAiLBabelO_: Well, it would appear that it's permanent (The version on the initial boot screen has stayed the same like... forever)
12:19.00marajinBabelO_: But yeah, SDHC tends to work ok for most devices that support it at all nowadays I think
12:19.15BabelO_marajin: yes :)
12:20.03BabelO_NAiL: not sure, i ve got a checksum even with USPL patch
12:21.22tymchnlol yeah just been playing with it now marajin, and it does seem a it crash happy :D
12:22.57marajintymchn: The original google emulator just crashes every few minutes really. It's totally unstable from square one. Really tis only a proof of concept and as soon as we get the kaiser to run X properly we'll probably ignore android till newer, more stable versions are released by google.
12:23.47tymchnmarajin: sounds good, so is it mostly console linux running reliably at the moment?
12:24.09marajintymchn: yeah
12:24.23marajintymchn: The kernel is pretty solid
12:24.33NAiLBabelO_: Ok, I guess I'll find out :)
12:26.06NAiLIs it possible to over/underclock the device in linux btw?
12:29.21BabelO_NAiL: Cpufreq is not working at the moment for this omap processor
12:29.51BabelO_NAiL: if you find the wince overclock sources :)
12:29.55NAiLMy Artemis has been idle for about a month. I don't really use it that much, so testing linux is fine ;)
12:30.34BabelO_NAiL: oh ? you have another phone ?
12:30.50NAiLI use my SE K810i most of the time

12:33.34kiozen...you will be assimilated...

12:33.40throwtwhat are a few of the 'best' phones?
12:34.01marajinNAiL: well if you stand for open/free software, going apple isn't so wise :P
12:34.24marajinNAiL: in a few months you'll be able to pick things up like the raphael anyway
12:34.32marajinand the HTC dream I think
12:36.31NAiLI'd love a Touch Diamond with linux. Is anyone working on that? =)
12:37.06marajinthe device is too new but based on its hardware, in a few months there'll at least be an active port...probably

14:34.58elliswayhi all
14:44.04marajinUMPCs turn out to be fundamentally useless, they tease you with aaaalmost being full PCs but fail you by lacking any serious power
14:44.26marajinIn reality they become overpriced, oversized PDAs
14:44.41marajinEspecially with the rate PDA specs are rising

16:13.14marajinthrowt: GSM/GRPS/SD/Touchscreen/Framebuffer work.
16:13.42marajinthrowt: Audio works in calls but doesn't work for system sounds, but is half way there.. BT is currently a work in progress.
16:13.49throwtnice.
16:14.41marajinReally I think once sound and powermanagement are sussed it would become a useable system
16:16.21throwti remember lifedrive linux.  keeping it on charge would destroy the battery as it didnt have power management
16:16.41marajinthat isn't what power management particularily means but yeah
16:16.50marajinI had a lifedrive way back when they were first developing LD linux
16:17.44throwtyeah.  then it went absolutely nowhere
16:18.06marajinwell they still didn't get wifi going did they?
16:18.33throwtlast time i checked, no.  i looked into that specifically like a year ago without any results
16:18.50marajinwell it was an obscure chip that nobody would release ANY specs on
16:18.55marajinso they were kinda shafted
16:19.03marajineverything else ended up working eventually though, no?
16:20.14throwtbusted charging control really was the dealbreaker, so i didnt look into it that much
16:20.39throwti played with it, then forgot about it and left it alone
16:20.46marajinit's sad really as the T3/T5 did quite well IIRC
16:21.17marajinthe LD was failed by a few stupid design decisions, the LD was the last straw when it came down to loyalty to palm for me
16:21.45marajinIt was an awesome device let down by an archaic OS and severe lack of RAM
16:22.09marajinI mean it had 32MB but they only let er 6.5MB to the "dynamic heap" or whatever palm calls the RAM left available to actual programs
16:22.26throwtaye, lack of ram was bad...  and uh, it had 4gb of storage and such a shitty mail program that could never scale to use any significant part of that
16:22.28marajinI think the T3 allowed more like 14MB to apps
16:22.40marajinor 16
16:22.41marajinI forget
16:22.44marajinit was much higher
16:23.07marajinwhereas my kaiser is sharing out it's luffly 128MB leaving oh iunno about 80 MB to apps
16:23.22marajinand the raphael's nuts with 288MB to share out.. I want the raphael :(
16:24.06throwtseems TMNT is more popular than htc
16:24.18marajinheh
16:24.51marajinRaphael == The Diamond's slightly bigger brother..
16:25.06marajinThey added a keyboard at least
16:26.04marajinThey call it the HTC Touch Pro but we only ever use codenames here or it gets confusing.
16:26.09marajinTOo many rebrands of the same device
16:26.32marajinKaiser = TyTn 2, XDA Stellar, Tilt, Vario IV, etc, etc, etc.
16:27.05marajinthough there are minor differences
16:27.16marajinthe Kaiser as such has two cameras but the tilt only has one for example
16:27.23marajinand the tilt has a different keyboard
16:27.27throwtIf linux runs and is semi-usable Iĺl be getting a tilt today
16:28.04throwthaving openoffice for the phone would be neat.
16:28.06marajinwell we can boot to console, log on to GPRS/3G/etc, read from the GPS and register Touchscreen input, and read/write to SD and SDHC as far as I know
16:28.24marajinunder android you can technically make and recieve calls
16:28.32marajinand use data
16:28.36marajinbut it's really reallyunstable
16:28.48throwtas long as theres a future its not as bad...  as uh, the future for my hermes
16:28.58marajinyeah the poor hermes
16:29.00throwtnot so much
16:29.18marajinthe hermes is fucked because of the SD
16:29.32marajinnobody knows how to get SD going so t'was mostly ignored in the end
16:30.44marajinand my hermes, well it just inexplicably broke
16:31.02marajinit doesn't register when I slide the keyboard out and half the keys don't respond
16:31.15marajinand I don't know why because I don't actually use the hermes anymore.
16:32.15throwttoo bad thunderbird cant be used :P

19:28.45nighthawk08how in the bb do I specify to only compile a version of linux for my mobile?
19:29.40nighthawk08because running it like "bitbake gpe-image" creates a huge amount of files...
19:30.24marajinit does
19:30.33marajinyou configure the machine type in local.conf
19:30.54nighthawk08I've put my machine in local.conf,.
19:31.07nighthawk08btw; what do I put in TARGET_OS?
19:31.44marajinWe don't set it as far as I know
19:32.22nighthawk08does it creates the zImage that I put on the vFAT?
19:33.27marajinit can do I think, I'm not an expert on bitbake/OpenEmbedded
19:33.40nighthawk08oh
19:33.50marajinI usually get my zImages from one of the other devs because they're actively working on device drivers
19:34.19marajinbut it will create a huge amount of packages yes, that's just OE
19:34.36marajinit always goes through 1000s of 'tasks' when you bitbake something
19:34.49marajinmy OE folder is 18GB or something now I think
19:35.41nighthawk08according to the documentation it can get as high as 35gb
19:35.52marajinif you compiled every package yes
19:36.08nighthawk08do I need every package?
19:36.24marajinNo,it will build everything it needs when you specific an image
19:36.34nighthawk08ha
19:36.39marajinopenmoko-image, gpe-image, opie-image, console-image, etc.
19:37.00marajinbut you'll find GPE-image needs oh.. 4800 tasks or something
19:37.10nighthawk08ok,. then it seems that I am on the right track,. now all I need to do is wait for that to finish the compilation...
19:37.15marajinyeah :P

19:38.03marajinyes
19:38.17nighthawk08how do I parallel...?
19:38.36marajinyou can set the number of threads in an env variable
19:38.57nighthawk08which var?

19:39.52marajinyeah
19:40.04marajinBB_THREADS it is
19:40.14nighthawk08what is the common # on duo?
19:40.16marajinset it to the number of cores/processors you have

21:13.02dcordesI actually didn't retry since I did rm -rf
21:13.13marajin-.-
21:13.43dcordes-.-? it gave odd errors with tscalibrate compilation
21:14.03dcordeslet me look up the debug lines from iclem
21:14.04marajinit's an emoticon it's kinda an expression of mild frustration I guess? :P
21:14.54ali1234why not openmoko? it works on wizard you know...
21:15.08marajinali1234: X won't understand out touchscreen code
21:15.15marajinali1234: And we dunno why
21:15.25marajinali1234: since TS works in android
21:15.35dcordesali1234: right. in the tslib applications it works out fine, then Xfbdev doesn't recognize it
21:15.43ali1234o dear
21:15.54marajinyeah
21:16.02marajinvery headache inducing
21:16.44marajindcordes: I was saying to ginge maybe he should try working on something else for a bit instead of fixing the SD problem so he can take a break and maybe he has new ideas to fix SD later but I think we kinda need to get X/OpenMoko working

21:17.47ali1234oh you'll need working SD do get openmoko working.. thought you had it already
21:18.01gingeali1234: fix the dma :)
21:18.15ali1234try coldbooting with EOL or something
21:18.20gingemarajin: sure, I still have not tried tofix it yet
21:18.42ali1234winmobile does something weird to the hardware on wizard, at least
21:19.01dcordesinteresting point
21:21.46gingeso did I miss anything interesting?
21:22.08marajinginge: I repaired my hermes but my earpiece is still too quiet and I think I'm not gona fix it without replacing the actual speaker module
21:23.10gingeattach it to an 80s style bookbox

21:25.26marajinhah
21:25.50marajinnah man but if the part ever ends up just going spare, ya know, better to have one working hermes than 2 fucked ones
21:25.52gingeI have had bigger phoens
21:26.01gingemarajin: quite right.
21:26.33marajinthat said, mine WORKS it's just very quiet. I can hear it but anyone with less sharp hearing.. buggered, and if it's a noisy environment even I struggle

21:27.18marajinI just like to have things working perfectly if possible
21:27.27gingemarajin: get an old style telephone and embed the kaiser into the handset
21:27.38marajinginge: Now you're being silly :P
21:27.44ali1234linwizard project has a workaround for SD card involving disabling the SD card in winmobile using a registry hack. have you tried that on kaiser?
21:27.46gingehermes even
21:27.52marajinmind you, it would look comical
21:28.02gingeali1234: whats that for?
21:28.15gingeali1234: what should that solve?
21:28.15ali1234its for making SD card work in linux
21:28.28ali1234without it, it just doesnt work
21:28.44ali1234unless you boot from EOL, before winmob messes up the dmas and what-have-you
21:28.53gingeali1234: sd works in linux. I think something is triggering a premature IRQ so it needs filtering
21:28.56marajinOur SD card works we just have DMA fubars on very large files
21:29.13marajiner at the start of the android boot ye
21:29.13marajinp
21:29.17dcordesmarajin: I also have the fubar trying to copy a 5M file
21:29.26ali1234ok, your SD card must work in a totally different way then, i guess
21:29.27dcordesand also when I do find &

21:31.03ali1234prolonged, or just after a certain amount of data has been passed?
21:31.10gingemarajin: cant do anything while my phone is the internet gateway
21:31.23marajinginge: We're getting quite a LOT of people asking about kaiser linux the last few days. It'd be nice if we got TS working..
21:31.24gingeali1234: amount of data is variable.
21:31.30marajinginge: Can't use the BA as an RNDIS device?
21:31.31ali1234hum

21:46.02gingemarajin: yeah, retreat is often the winning plan. Doesn't stop me trying though
21:46.27marajinOh I can win the discussion, I just get .. let's say the sour treatment for quite a while

21:51.30gingewere both geeks so we dont see the point of spending the money. Much better to buy gadgets :)
21:52.06marajinYeah I thought I was getting a geek but in the end I didn't so much get a geek as someone who's generally content just to be on the net a lot
21:52.38gingeI got someting sort of half way between the two ;)

22:13.19gingeI seem to remember 350
22:13.25ali1234at least that's what the guy on the phone told me
22:13.27marajintgreer: Winkey (on the keyboard) = ctrl
22:13.37gingethen about £100 per MB after that

22:14.20marajintends to vary on what will actually trigger /that/ cause
22:14.24dcordestgreer: try the angstrom-new.bin I posted above
22:14.31ali1234marajin: this is what they said: you have a 1gb limit. if you go over, we degrade your speed. we never charge more, and we'll never cut you off.
22:14.32tgreerah will do thanks
22:14.33dcordesI'm not sure if ppp will work there just ry
22:14.37marajinthe fair use policy on my broadband at home is comical

23:03.36marajingoodo, just checking
23:03.39gingeclock 21 is sd iirc
23:03.47marajinginge: It is yeah
23:04.24dcordesginge: if it fails initializing sd clock, why would the rootfs make any difference?
23:04.46gingedcordes: it shouldn't
23:05.54dcordesmaybe tgreer has a special bugy prototype msm
23:06.09marajindcordes: Likely he just has his default.txt messed up
23:06.53dcordesI symlinked /sbin/init.sysvinit to /init
23:07.00dcordesso that should be fine I doubt he changed it
23:07.44dcordesginge: we should send a kaiser to mars to confirm

23:09.42marajinginge: I can dial a number in a secondor two yeah
23:09.43dcordesnot for me!
23:09.52dcordesthe duty rom is as lame as the stock one
23:09.56marajinhmm

23:10.14gingeit makes phone banking a right bitch
23:10.40ali1234for god's sake don't flash crazy hacked roms, you'll only break it, wah wah wah, etc, etc
23:11.47marajinheh :P
23:12.00marajinI'd video it for proof but my hermes won't start the camera app =/
23:12.19dcordesali1234: I had this opinnion before I noticed haret bootign works well with the cooked
23:12.21marajinah a reboot fixedthat
23:12.46ali1234haret booting works perfectly every single time on the wizard, regardless of what rom you have
23:14.27ali1234did anyone ever buy a battery etc from shopblue.co.uk? they are 1/4 the price of everyone else. it sounds almost too good to be true...
23:14.34gingeI can boot haret 100% of the time remotely
23:16.19ali1234is haret any more reliable if you dont use an initrd, or if you use a very small initrd?
23:16.45marajinginge: http://marajin.w-ww.org/dialing.mp4 <-- Fast enough? :P
23:16.46gingeali1234: the larger initrds tend to boot more relaibly for me

23:54.32gingein flight. it wont open, but still idoits.
23:54.44dcordesbecause of the pressure in the cabin?
23:54.47marajin_It will but you have to pull the emergency wossname
23:54.53gingedcordes: because of a lock
23:55.16dcordesha that wossname spacer word is funny
23:55.22NAiLBecause of a lock, and the fact that you have to pull the door inwards to slide it open.
23:55.24gingethey should have been thrown out on the grounds they deserve it
23:55.38NAiLwhich is kinda hard when you take the pressure into account ;)

23:57.42marajin_if it was a perso you'd probably say wossisname or wossername (his and her)
23:57.57marajin_but sometimes that's also just wossname
