00:00:14 | hobbs | TheMasterMind1: heh. that's dumb, then. |
00:00:15 | TheMasterMind1 | you can look at the sharp/lineo kernel patch for the Zaurus it defines 4 levels |
00:00:17 | TheMasterMind1 | pretty sad |
00:00:25 | TheMasterMind1 | that's one of the big things to fix in 2.4.19 |
00:00:42 | TheMasterMind1 | which we'll go back to developing as soon as this new oz releases |
00:00:45 | TheMasterMind1 | Real Soon Now |
00:00:47 | noiddz | but my laptop could get battery status as % using early kernels |
00:00:48 | Dessimat0r | excellent ;) |
00:00:52 | hobbs | Cool. |
00:00:57 | noiddz | whats different bout this? |
00:01:14 | Dessimat0r | your laptop probably had a patch also, to enable it to do this |
00:01:15 | TheMasterMind1 | noiddz: the code that was written to make it work on the zaurus only defined 4 levels |
00:01:20 | TheMasterMind1 | someone was feeling lazy |
00:01:22 | hobbs | TheMasterMind1: I can't wait to use OZ. Right now I'm penniless, no CF. :) |
00:01:25 | Dessimat0r | but its incompatible with the Z |
00:01:38 | noiddz | oh, its Z hardware specific? |
00:02:07 | Dessimat0r | well, I think PDAs and laptop have different battery level checking routenes ;) |
00:02:12 | cerezu | hobbs: right now I am zaurus-less because flashing failed and I have no CF reader to recopy the files, so I am stuck... sigh |
00:02:18 | TheMasterMind1 | yes, there's a zaurus patch that enables the kernel to function on the zaurus |
00:02:29 | TheMasterMind1 | without it, nothing works |
00:02:33 | scanline | is away: food |
00:02:44 | hobbs | ./dcc send cerezu dcc_cf_reader_writer |
00:02:47 | noiddz | hmmmm |
00:02:53 | hobbs | er... s:2nd/dcc/usb/ |
00:02:55 | TheMasterMind1 | we basically have to port the patch to 2.4.19 and add more functionality to the stupid things, such as this apm code |
00:03:10 | TheMasterMind1 | Cloudchaser: hi |
00:03:21 | hobbs | TheMasterMind1: good luck. |
00:03:23 | noiddz | i'm going to go compile breadperl |
00:03:31 | Cloudchaser | hello |
00:03:36 | noiddz | bLeadperl |
00:03:38 | noiddz | even |
00:03:38 | TheMasterMind1 | hobbs: oh yea, great fun. kergoth gets to have most of it |
00:03:49 | noiddz | heyas cloudchaser :-) |
00:03:50 | hobbs | TheMasterMind1: maybe I'll get more involved once I can actually _run_ OZ. I've done a little bit of kernel hacking and etc. |
00:03:58 | Dessimat0r | heh |
00:04:10 | noiddz | hobbs: its lovely |
00:04:18 | hardwire | shit its already late there |
00:04:20 | hardwire | err |
00:04:22 | hardwire | wrong channel |
00:04:29 | noiddz | hehe |
00:04:44 | ljp | hey! |
00:04:46 | noiddz | ok. i'm off - catch you all later! |
00:04:55 | noiddz | hiya and bye ljp |
00:05:04 | ljp | hi |
00:05:30 | noiddz | see how many years it will take to compile bleadperl :-) |
00:05:33 | ljp | hardwire likes to talk to himself |
00:05:35 | Cloudchaser | heya |
00:05:44 | ljp | hi cloudy |
00:05:50 | noiddz | waves |
00:06:11 | Cloudchaser | hows things today ljp? |
00:06:20 | ljp | likes konq with Arial |
00:06:26 | cerezu | is SMC the same as SD? |
00:06:32 | cerezu | well, compatible, I mean |
00:06:40 | TheMasterMind1 | no |
00:06:53 | TheMasterMind1 | its a different physical shape and standard |
00:06:55 | ljp | Cloudchaser: I'm ok, considering |
00:07:01 | TheMasterMind1 | mmc is sd compatible |
00:07:10 | Cloudchaser | considering what? |
00:07:17 | ljp | Cloudchaser: still waiting on word with that job interview |
00:07:18 | cerezu | but sd is not smc compatible? |
00:07:20 | hobbs | crapcrapcrapcrap. |
00:07:26 | TheMasterMind1 | cerezu: nope |
00:07:35 | TheMasterMind1 | smc is totally different |
00:07:51 | hobbs | I just hit that 'reboot' bug again. It's been a while. |
00:07:58 | ljp | Cloudchaser: wanted to get something done today, and so far haven't |
00:08:04 | Cloudchaser | :( |
00:08:10 | Cloudchaser | i didn't get anything done today either |
00:08:15 | Cloudchaser | except applied for unemployment |
00:08:22 | ljp | ouch |
00:08:24 | hobbs | good thing I tarred up /home just today. |
00:09:00 | Cloudchaser | i can't collect for 12 weeks it looks like |
00:09:05 | Cloudchaser | but i have a hearing nov 12 |
00:09:12 | ljp | hmmm |
00:09:31 | Cloudchaser | 6 weeks severence and 6 weeks accrued vacation |
00:09:38 | ljp | did you tell them in 12 weeks you'll be begging down by the docks? |
00:09:50 | Cloudchaser | hehe they don't care |
00:10:13 | ljp | true |
00:10:26 | Cloudchaser | at least i got something |
00:10:50 | ljp | are you certified al all? |
00:10:58 | ljp | at all even |
00:11:08 | Cloudchaser | ccnp, ccda and network management specialization |
00:11:20 | ljp | ahh.. |
00:11:42 | ljp | I'm a certified credit risk currently |
00:11:46 | ljp | heh |
00:11:47 | Cloudchaser | hehe |
00:12:01 | Cloudchaser | i have a possible...but nothing firm yet |
00:12:14 | Cloudchaser | with a group of our former engineers who started their own company |
00:12:27 | Cloudchaser | they need my ccnp to get their silver certification with cisco |
00:12:35 | Cloudchaser | (or someone's) |
00:12:55 | ljp | aoh.. just have them throw up an ipo.. and ... oh.. ya.. .thats years ago.. nm |
00:13:01 | Cloudchaser | hehe |
00:13:56 | ljp | grumbles about high tech funds... |
00:14:04 | Cloudchaser | grumbles |
00:14:21 | Cloudchaser | this hasn't been my most successful week |
00:14:40 | Cloudchaser | hoping the hubby gets a promotion so i don't *have* to work :) |
00:14:51 | ljp | hehehe there ya go |
00:15:12 | ljp | 'if you dont get a promotion, your sleeping on the couch!" |
00:16:40 | Cloudchaser | most you can get from unemployment is 411 per week |
00:17:11 | ljp | heh thats about 2x what I make on a good week |
00:17:32 | Cloudchaser | hope that job comes to you then |
00:18:34 | Dessimat0r | gah... got to insert the cd for the usb drives again |
00:18:38 | Dessimat0r | drivers |
00:18:50 | prpplague | 411 per week? |
00:19:12 | Dessimat0r | flashed my bios before, decidied to forget about all the devices attacted to the mobo |
00:19:16 | Dessimat0r | attached |
00:19:56 | ljp | ouch |
00:20:00 | prpplague | doh |
00:21:46 | ljp | one time I flashed a bios, and it was the wrong one, but luckily I saved the old on a different harddrive, and i have to convince the board to flash the right one.. I dont know how i did it, but it worked |
00:22:21 | ljp | it wasnt totally borked |
00:22:42 | ToyKeeper | Hey, spiff. prpplague. :) |
00:23:02 | ToyKeeper | I was going to ask if you have any files related to X11-Z up somewhere. |
00:23:21 | ljp | heheh prpplague?? X on Z?? |
00:24:08 | hobbs | doesn't Y feel left out? |
00:24:09 | ljp | ya, I'm chanting great googli-moogli that I get that job.. |
00:24:51 | ljp | or that hardwire really has a chance at a CTO |
00:25:19 | ljp | and make him hire me |
00:25:22 | ToyKeeper | A CTO living 2000 miles off-site. :) |
00:25:32 | ljp | haha.. yup |
00:25:46 | Dessimat0r | lol |
00:25:48 | ToyKeeper | Sounds pretty promising, actually. |
00:26:18 | ToyKeeper | I know the people involved with that, and they really do like him that much. |
00:26:32 | ljp | hmmm interesting |
00:26:34 | Dessimat0r | if you have a network card, you can remove the bios chip from its socket, and replace the one on the network card |
00:26:41 | Dessimat0r | then you can flash it like that ;) |
00:26:45 | mickeyl | is leaving for a while... |
00:27:12 | ljp | scary thought, Hardwire, CTO |
00:27:22 | prpplague | ToyKeeper: the buildroot has a tinyx but its still got tons of bugs |
00:27:30 | prpplague | ToyKeeper: i'm working on it now |
00:27:37 | ToyKeeper | Where's the buildroot? |
00:27:45 | ToyKeeper | Any bugs I can help with? |
00:28:02 | ToyKeeper | I'm just getting sick of wanting something but doing nothing to make it happen. |
00:29:00 | [DrEvil] | fix oipkg |
00:29:16 | ToyKeeper | Heh. |
00:29:23 | ToyKeeper | I have no interest in qtopia. :( |
00:29:42 | ToyKeeper | Which is why I keep bugging prpplague about X. |
00:29:47 | [DrEvil] | it's in opiew |
00:29:47 | [DrEvil] | opie |
00:29:55 | Dessimat0r | the stylus seems more responsive in the latest testing OZ |
00:30:14 | | hmmm... bk oz is see oz bk |
00:30:14 | prpplague | ibot: bk oz |
00:30:20 | | somebody said oz bk was bk clone http://openzaurus.bkbits.net/buildroot buildroot-oz; cd buildroot-oz; bk -r co -q; cp def-configs/openzaurus .config; make oldconfig; make or see bitkeeper (free download but non-gpl) or see 'oz snapshot' if you don't want to use bk |
00:30:20 | prpplague | ibot: oz bk |
00:30:22 | [DrEvil] | uncompresses his Zaurus sandbox |
00:30:26 | ToyKeeper | Oh. Okay. |
00:30:49 | [DrEvil] | use bitchkeeper |
00:30:50 | ToyKeeper | I suppose I can probably evade the BK license long enough to get OZ. :) |
00:31:08 | hardwire | heh |
00:31:12 | [DrEvil] | and while you are at it |
00:31:18 | hardwire | pets ToyKeeper |
00:31:21 | prpplague | [DrEvil]: lol |
00:31:23 | hardwire | its not as evil now |
00:31:28 | hardwire | just snag the newest bk bins |
00:31:29 | [DrEvil] | tell me what writes /tmp/.ICE-unix |
00:31:49 | prpplague | ToyKeeper: there is a end user free use license |
00:31:52 | [DrEvil] | that dir has been giving me trouble |
00:32:04 | [DrEvil] | like you would not believe |
00:32:18 | [DrEvil] | if it is not set to root everything takes forever to load |
00:32:43 | ToyKeeper | Yeah, the free bk license prohibits use by anyone even remotely associated with development of other config-management systems. |
00:32:48 | [DrEvil] | openoffice takes literally 10 minutes to load |
00:32:48 | ToyKeeper | Not that they'd actually notice. |
00:33:13 | ToyKeeper | Anyway, is there an X11 buglist in the buildroot? |
00:34:07 | hardwire | make one |
00:34:17 | ToyKeeper | I'd need to know what the bugs are first. :) |
00:34:23 | hardwire | find out :) |
00:34:30 | ToyKeeper | I'm trying. |
00:38:29 | hardwire | I know |
00:38:52 | hardwire | the X world with the OZ buildroot and Z in general is still in.. needs people to knock heads ttogether phase |
00:41:29 | ljp | is it pizza night? |
00:41:58 | hobbs | I could use some pizza. |
00:42:01 | scanline | is back (gone 00:39:29) |
00:43:11 | hardwire | ljp: dear lord |
00:43:13 | hardwire | I want papa johns |
00:43:13 | hardwire | ! |
00:43:14 | ljp | me too |
00:43:20 | hardwire | SOOOO BAD! |
00:43:22 | ljp | haha that have pizza hut |
00:43:27 | hardwire | they have one here in anchorage |
00:43:33 | ljp | ah |
00:43:33 | hardwire | maybe I can con my boss out of some cash |
00:43:51 | hardwire | or just do it tomorrow |
00:46:01 | ljp | there's probably alot of open wireless networks downtown ;) |
00:47:19 | ljp | yup.. papajohns night |
00:49:10 | ToyKeeper | yup.. (un)frozen food night |
00:49:58 | hardwire | so far X works well on the z |
00:49:59 | hardwire | heh |
00:50:02 | hardwire | except for the no resume thing |
00:50:32 | ToyKeeper | Yeah. Kind of a big problem. |
00:50:33 | ljp | dont boot into opie first |
00:50:58 | ToyKeeper | I want to find out what all le X11 booogs are. |
00:51:22 | ToyKeeper | It has no suspend problems when opie isn't present? |
00:51:45 | hardwire | ljp: doesn't help |
00:51:48 | ljp | dont know.. wouldnt think so |
00:51:49 | ljp | oh |
00:51:50 | ToyKeeper | If so, I don't have to care about that particular boogaroo. :) |
00:51:56 | hardwire | its an issue with apmd and the zapm daemon |
00:52:26 | hardwire | you do :) |
00:52:38 | ljp | maybe X holds the device file descriptor open during the suspend |
00:53:13 | ljp | or.. not x |
00:53:37 | ljp | have you tried the apmd from familiar? |
00:54:13 | ljp | 's just shooting his brain |
00:54:39 | ToyKeeper | I'm about to reflash the latest OZ and then start from scratch with X11... if I can motivate myself to spend the time on it. |
00:54:53 | hardwire | ToyKeeper: beh |
00:54:57 | hardwire | just wait till I get home |
00:55:04 | hardwire | and we will double team up on it |
00:56:17 | ToyKeeper | Last time I flashed a new OZ because the text editor refused to save. |
00:56:29 | Dessimat0r | lol |
00:56:32 | ToyKeeper | But after flashing, "ipkg update" barfed right out of the box. |
00:56:37 | ToyKeeper | Then I gave up for a while. |
00:57:07 | nasa | bbl |
00:57:13 | Dessimat0r | you could have just got the latest textedit from the opie feed ;) |
00:57:32 | Dessimat0r | I had the problem of the text not saving too |
00:57:38 | Dessimat0r | i was doing some notes in it at college |
00:57:46 | Dessimat0r | then upon saving, it did not do so... |
00:58:09 | ToyKeeper | I don't know why, but it seems that every time I touch the Z I manage to find exactly the wrong things to do. |
00:58:33 | Dessimat0r | lol ;) |
00:58:33 | codemnky | i'm alive |
00:58:39 | ljp | hmm |
00:58:42 | Dessimat0r | i tried installing opie-remove |
00:58:46 | Dessimat0r | to see what it did |
00:58:47 | ToyKeeper | I've made near-zero progress with it in the last 3-4 months. |
00:58:49 | Dessimat0r | ... |
00:58:50 | Dessimat0r | lol |
00:59:27 | ToyKeeper | Got the MMC to work (had a bad card), got music-playing to work, wireless networking... and that's about it. |
00:59:54 | Dessimat0r | thats it? |
00:59:56 | Dessimat0r | lol |
01:00:02 | Dessimat0r | no packages will install? |
01:00:35 | ToyKeeper | Oh, er, I do nasty stuff to the Z. |
01:00:43 | Dessimat0r | lol |
01:00:52 | Dessimat0r | at least you haven't dropped it yet |
01:00:55 | Dessimat0r | or sat on it |
01:00:56 | Dessimat0r | ;) |
01:01:02 | ToyKeeper | Not physically nasty stuff. |
01:01:08 | Dessimat0r | I kinda had a plam m100 |
01:01:15 | Dessimat0r | how it has a black mess on the screen |
01:01:18 | ToyKeeper | I just keep doing stuff like installing packages from fam-unstable over the OZ ones. |
01:01:19 | Dessimat0r | constantly |
01:01:25 | Dessimat0r | ah |
01:02:08 | ToyKeeper | It's intentional, but neither distro has all the packages I need and their dependencies are nowhere near compatible. |
01:02:27 | Dessimat0r | I think i might have used the busybox from the familar feed too ;) |
01:03:05 | ToyKeeper | I hate busybox's deps in particular. |
01:03:53 | Dessimat0r | yup |
01:04:20 | ToyKeeper | I manually select which binaries it provides... and I'm willing to deal with conflicts myself instead of letting ipkg try to do it. |
01:05:33 | cerezu | does anyone know if the "Lexar Media Compact Flash USB Reader (Recertified) |
01:05:35 | ToyKeeper | I have busybox problems on the ipaq too, but at least I can trick ipkg by modifying the deps in its database. |
01:05:37 | cerezu | works or not? |
01:06:05 | cerezu | that is does anyone know if the "Lexar Media Compact Flash USB Reader" also writes as well? |
01:06:19 | badalex | anyone get that mac port to the zaurus working??? |
01:06:51 | ToyKeeper | cerezu: I don't know, but you could probably buy one from a store with a good return policy in case it doesn't work... |
01:06:58 | ljp | is booting up his badass audio box |
01:07:28 | ToyKeeper | It's definitely time for some microwavable veggie-corndogs. |
01:07:33 | badalex | lol |
01:07:53 | badalex | is that a no?? no one has gotten the mac port to the z working? |
01:07:53 | ljp | ordered papajohns |
01:08:04 | ljp | mac port? |
01:08:22 | badalex | ljp: yeah checed zsi lately |
01:08:55 | badalex | well i mean emulaoter |
01:09:05 | badalex | *emulator not port |
01:09:06 | badalex | lol |
01:09:20 | badalex | did i say port?.... |
01:09:46 | ljp | ahhhh |
01:10:52 | Dessimat0r | http://bcook.cs.gasou.edu/eclass/gamepage.htm <- makes you wonder why ppl make games in javascript |
01:10:55 | Dessimat0r | ;) |
01:11:15 | badalex | hrm so i guess not... but... i meant mac emulator not port.. |
01:25:06 | Bones3D | hmm |
01:28:14 | Bones3D | Anyone know of a feed that carries the x11 .ipk file on it? I've been trying to install it manually, downloading it from various mirrors using both a web browser and ftp client and ftping it to the zaurus... every attempt to install fails with an "unexpected end of file" error. :-P |
01:29:38 | | well, killefiz is the guy running the zsi (zaurus software index) at http://killefiz.de/zaurus/ you can email him: mailto:zaurus@killefiz.de |
01:29:38 | hardwire | ibot killefiz |
01:29:43 | hardwire | go there |
01:29:47 | hardwire | :) |
01:29:49 | ToyKeeper | Uh. fam-unstable has x11, but it won't work properly. |
01:30:05 | hardwire | yes but how else can we find bug / feature requests |
01:30:10 | hardwire | bags To |
01:30:12 | hardwire | ykeeper |
01:30:13 | hardwire | heh |
01:30:20 | hardwire | why are their two of you ? |
01:31:30 | ToyKeeper | Because I'm sitting on your carriage return? |
01:32:25 | hardwire | thinks about that |
01:32:26 | Bones3D | hmm, yeah... I know about killfilez, thats how I got to the mirrors at sourceforge. Obviously attempting to download the ipk from them isn't the solution. :-/ |
01:32:35 | hardwire | I guess |
01:32:36 | hardwire | they work for me |
01:32:40 | hardwire | do yuo have a goat handy/ |
01:32:42 | hardwire | ? |
01:32:51 | Bones3D | a goat? |
01:33:00 | hardwire | yea |
01:33:04 | hardwire | and a sharp knife? |
01:33:06 | hardwire | an altar boy |
01:33:10 | hardwire | a voodoo holy man |
01:33:14 | hardwire | aaand.. a tellitubby |
01:33:27 | Bones3D | meh ;-P |
01:34:28 | Bones3D | ok, new question... has anyone here actually managed to successfully install x11 themselves? ;-) |
01:34:49 | hardwire | yes |
01:35:04 | hardwire | do you have a peice of paper and a pen? |
01:35:12 | hardwire | write down that ingredients list I just gave you |
01:35:38 | hardwire | I have it working |
01:35:46 | hardwire | with everything and then some |
01:35:48 | ljp | where is that pizza guy!!?! |
01:35:49 | hardwire | but it has bugs |
01:35:57 | hardwire | like no suspend/resume blah that works |
01:36:15 | ljp | have you tried the X11 package at the sourceforge zaurus thing? |
01:36:31 | hardwire | they all basically have the same bugs |
01:36:59 | ljp | oh |
01:37:01 | ToyKeeper | The sf x11 package is pretty... old. And has a really strange filesystem layout. |
01:37:08 | hardwire | yessir |
01:37:12 | hardwire | its sharp happy |
01:37:26 | ljp | well, I was just wondering if that one worked |
01:37:27 | hardwire | instead sharp needs to use jffs2 so that package interoperability can be done |
01:37:31 | hardwire | then again they don't support OZ |
01:37:33 | hardwire | so.. oh well :) |
01:37:37 | Bones3D | yeah... thats where I got the ipk from... unfortunately, somehow every single time, regardless of the method of download, the ipk will not install because of an "unexpected end of file" |
01:37:56 | hardwire | Bones3D does it have a file size :) |
01:38:45 | Bones3D | yeah 1.5MB |
01:39:30 | hardwire | :) |
01:39:31 | Bones3D | the odd thing is, files like icewm.ipk from the same mirrors are fine |
01:39:43 | hardwire | maybe that one file is just brokien |
01:39:45 | hardwire | heh |
01:39:56 | hardwire | I don't know of any mirrors |
01:39:59 | hardwire | try other SF mirrors |
01:40:04 | Bones3D | on every mirror, across multiple releases? |
01:40:09 | ToyKeeper | Bones3D: I'd recommend a different x11 package... Just grab a few pieces from the sf x11-zaurus one, and use a more standard x11 package for the rest. |
01:40:18 | hardwire | heh |
01:40:33 | Bones3D | hmm |
01:41:48 | Bones3D | well, considering that zauruszone's messageboard isn't flooded with questions about the "unexpected end of file" thing in the x11 threads, I'm expecting its somehow specific to me. |
01:42:55 | ToyKeeper | Probably. |
01:43:10 | ToyKeeper | I'm just glad I'm no longer the only one who wants X on Z. :) |
01:43:18 | Bones3D | I'm just not sure how that is... and why it only affects that one file |
01:43:21 | hardwire | you were never the only one :) |
01:43:43 | hardwire | I have been trying to get it working for a long ass time.. decided to help build OZ in the meantime |
01:44:21 | ToyKeeper | Yeah, I'm just lazy. Easily distractable. |
01:44:40 | ToyKeeper | I look at the Z, think about X, and decide I should work instead. |
01:44:53 | hardwire | Y? |
01:44:58 | ToyKeeper | So of course I go straight to IRC or check my mail. :) |
01:45:41 | ToyKeeper | Y on the Z would be sick. ... kinda nice, actually. But. ... no. |
01:45:44 | Bones3D | the only constant I can figure right now is that the data is somehow getting clipped from the file on ftping to the zaurus itself. |
01:46:24 | Bones3D | I've been using the ftp upload to <zaurus IP>:4242 thing |
01:46:39 | hardwire | no.. that was a simple question.. haha y? |
01:46:48 | hardwire | I AM SO DARN WITTY! |
01:50:19 | ToyKeeper | Bones3D: try scp? |
01:50:35 | Bones3D | I'm not familiar with scp. |
01:50:36 | ToyKeeper | Bones3D: or even wget the file straight to the Z from SF. |
01:51:16 | Bones3D | wget... that could work. |
01:55:57 | Bones3D | hmm... guess we'll find out in a sec. ;-) |
02:02:47 | Bones3D | ok... wget seems to work. I guess other methods just aren't reliable. ;-) |

02:11:17 | Dessimat0r | its at times like these where Krogoth isnt being talked to constantly that he can get to work on OZ ;) |
02:11:39 | Dessimat0r | oh, wrong channel |
02:11:40 | Dessimat0r | ;) |
02:11:44 | paq | heh |
02:11:53 | [DrEvil] | I am going to have some work for him soon |
02:12:01 | paq | btw, is the oz bootloader planned for this release? |
02:14:42 | ljp- | OZ blob? scary thought |
02:16:03 | hardwire | Krogoth likes Kroger peanuts |
02:17:19 | ToyKeeper | It would be kinda nice to put the kernel in the root jffs2.. save some flash space by reclaiming the kernel partition. |
02:17:36 | hardwire | that would be.. attractive |
02:18:16 | hardwire | I suppose you "could" get an old 2.2.x kernel to mount a very small patr of that partition |
02:18:18 | hardwire | as an initrd |
02:18:33 | hardwire | then put a lilo prompt in there.. just to confuse everybody |
02:18:55 | hardwire | I forgot how to bootstrap a different kernel |
02:19:50 | ljp- | get some leather straps... and wrap it around the kernel... done! |
02:20:12 | hardwire | don't forget to tie it in a pretty bow |
02:20:19 | hardwire | that uh.. made no sense |
02:22:17 | ToyKeeper | Uh, copy code from the CRL bootloader to boot from jffs2. |
02:22:39 | hardwire | that would be sexy |
02:22:42 | ToyKeeper | Better yet, copy the flash-from-CF code from the Z bootloader into the CRL bootloader, and use that. |
02:23:02 | hardwire | the angel is not open source :( |
02:23:06 | hardwire | I wish it were :( |
02:23:34 | ToyKeeper | Well, the CRL one can already access CF and perform flashing, so it shouldn't be too hard to add. |
02:23:42 | hardwire | and I don't know how dynamic the flash memory is on the Z.. and what is actually hard coded or not |
02:24:03 | hardwire | ToyKeeper: its the.. none of us have a JTAG and programmer thing.. that I think keeps it from being easy |
02:24:09 | ToyKeeper | It's a 16MB flash rom which can be partitioned however you like, AFAICT. |
02:24:28 | hardwire | hmm |
02:24:33 | hardwire | anyhoot |
02:24:41 | hardwire | time to convince ron he needs to buy me a steak |
02:24:42 | hardwire | bbl |
02:24:59 | ToyKeeper | You should be able to flash over the first partition while running linux, and then repartition once booted into the new bootloader. |
02:26:12 | ToyKeeper | Not that I'm willing to brick my Z to find out. |
02:26:44 | Dessimat0r | can you imagine a house made out of Zauruses? That is my nightmare. |
02:27:23 | ToyKeeper | The Z is pretty much impossible to brick (via software) unless you screw with its bootloader. |
02:28:23 | ljp- | or thow it out an 8 story window |
02:28:57 | ToyKeeper | If you can write software which will make the Z propel itself out a window, I want a copy. |
02:29:48 | ljp- | just write a really annoying, noise making, non stoppable app |
02:34:02 | NeoTron | another day is over |
02:34:10 | NeoTron | just one more day to go |
02:37:24 | ljp- | till...? |
02:38:44 | NeoTron | my wife comes back home |
02:38:47 | NeoTron | 3 down, 1 to go |
02:39:02 | DaJoker | out of clean laundry are ya? |
02:39:03 | DaJoker | ;) |
02:39:49 | hcker2000 | hey any one here use a wireless lan card with there zaurus? |
02:40:03 | DaJoker | yup |
02:40:17 | hcker2000 | ok well i need some help seting mine up think u can help me out? |
02:40:25 | DaJoker | doubt it.. |
02:40:29 | DaJoker | I just plug mine in and go |
02:40:46 | hcker2000 | well i tryed the web browser and it didnt work |
02:41:47 | hcker2000 | what wlan card do u use |
02:42:00 | DaJoker | linksys WCF11 |
02:42:21 | hcker2000 | thats what i got too. im useing a wap11 as the access point |
02:43:04 | Dessimat0r | put the Z next to your ear |
02:43:13 | Dessimat0r | can you hear bleepings inside? |
02:43:43 | hcker2000 | as strange as that sound no i canot here any |
02:44:05 | Dessimat0r | okay... try playing an mp3 on it ;) |
02:44:17 | hcker2000 | lol |
02:44:32 | Dessimat0r | it bleeps inside while you do it |
02:44:34 | Dessimat0r | its weird |
02:44:34 | Dessimat0r | lol |
02:44:41 | hcker2000 | ok ill try it |
02:45:18 | hcker2000 | man u must have a crazy z because mine dont do it |
02:45:23 | Dessimat0r | lol |
02:45:25 | Dessimat0r | perhaps |
02:45:43 | hcker2000 | so dose any one got a link to a site about seting up the wlan |
02:45:53 | | i think howto is at http://www.zauruszone.com/howtos/ or see xcompile for cross compiler setup |
02:45:53 | DaJoker | ibot howto |
02:46:00 | Dessimat0r | if you install openzaurus |
02:46:06 | Dessimat0r | wlan setting up is easy as crap ;) |
02:46:22 | hcker2000 | lol and how do u install openzaurus? |
02:46:31 | | oz faq is http://telia.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/openzaurus/FAQ or http://unc.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/openzaurus/FAQ |
02:46:32 | DaJoker | ibot oz faq |
02:46:35 | Dessimat0r | easily...? follow the guide |
02:46:36 | Dessimat0r | lol |
02:46:36 | NeoTron | clean laundry is not the problem (I can do laundry) |
02:46:46 | NeoTron | the 16 month old twins on the other hand. :P |
02:47:00 | DaJoker | NeoTron: yeah, I can see that might be a problem :) |
02:47:07 | hcker2000 | lol but do u need a flash memory card or any thing? |
02:47:20 | NeoTron | I can handle them but it's taxing |
02:48:00 | Dessimat0r | yeah, you need a compactflash |
02:48:15 | Dessimat0r | i cant believe you dont have one ;) |
02:49:10 | Dessimat0r | compactflash is ridiculously cheap |
02:49:25 | Dessimat0r | for small quantities |
02:49:41 | Dessimat0r | you could probably get 32mb for about £20? |
02:49:45 | Dessimat0r | about $40 |
02:49:50 | DaJoker | cheaper |
02:49:54 | Dessimat0r | yeah |
02:49:57 | DaJoker | can get 64m for around 30 now |
02:51:00 | hcker2000 | ok and i set my tcpip setings up and i set my essid to the same as the access points is there any thing else i need to set? |
02:51:24 | DaJoker | shouldn't be |
02:51:36 | DaJoker | http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduct.asp?submit=manufactory&catalog=68&manufactory=1077&DEPA=1&sortby=14&order=1 |
02:51:39 | DaJoker | cheap CF |
02:51:45 | hobbs | kvim is nifty. |
02:51:47 | hobbs | NewEgg is the man. |
02:51:54 | DaJoker | yep |
02:52:00 | DaJoker | and free shipping on those |
02:52:03 | hobbs | I got a nice 20GB laptop drive from them... and then it (and the laptop) was stolen a few weeks later. |
02:52:06 | hcker2000 | ok and i got 802.11 ad-hoc set to channel 1 is that right |
02:52:26 | hobbs | hcker2000: it is if that's what you use. |
02:52:36 | Dessimat0r | hcker2000, do you want to listen to mp3 or ogg on your zaurus? ;) |
02:52:42 | Dessimat0r | CF is the only way to go |
02:53:01 | hcker2000 | well im useing a linksys wap11 as the access point so am i useind 802.11 ad-hoc? |
02:53:02 | Dessimat0r | apart from the more expensive SD |
02:53:04 | Dessimat0r | lol |
02:53:14 | Dessimat0r | MCC is slower but cheaper |
02:53:15 | hobbs | hcker2000: no. |
02:53:16 | hcker2000 | lol yea im going to be geting a SD card eventualy |
02:53:26 | Dessimat0r | lol |
02:53:30 | hcker2000 | ok hobbs so i set it to Infastructure then ? |
02:53:35 | hobbs | hcker2000: yeah. |
02:53:39 | hcker2000 | ok thanks |
02:53:41 | Dessimat0r | oh yeah, you have a wireless lan CF thingy ;) |
02:54:00 | hobbs | yeah, I think I'm going to have to get MMC for the same reason. |
02:54:17 | Dessimat0r | bloody hell, they should make tiny ones to go into the sd slot ;) |
02:54:18 | DaJoker | bah.. SD isn't that much more expensive.. |
02:54:19 | hobbs | I don't have CF wlan _yet_, but I know I want it. And I wouldn't want to have to swap out three quarters of my storage just to get the network. :) |
02:54:21 | hcker2000 | ok and the wlan still dosent work :( |
02:54:34 | ToyKeeper | MMC may be too slow to play songs without skipping... |
02:54:41 | DaJoker | mmc is unreliable in the Z.. or has been for me. |
02:54:43 | ToyKeeper | Just FYI. |
02:54:46 | hobbs | ToyKeeper: really? |
02:54:50 | DaJoker | SD is more stable |
02:55:04 | ToyKeeper | My first MMC card was broken, but I got a replacement which works well. |
02:55:12 | ToyKeeper | But MMC is *very* slow. At least for writes. |
02:55:26 | ToyKeeper | SD doesn't work without a closed-source kernel module. |
02:55:26 | Dessimat0r | MMC is made for devices that cannot read from MMC quickly |
02:55:30 | Dessimat0r | they make them low cost |
02:55:39 | Dessimat0r | and high latency and low bandwidth |
02:55:46 | hobbs | kinda stupid that they would call it "multimedia", though. |
02:55:51 | Dessimat0r | due to the type of interface and data cells they have |
02:55:55 | ToyKeeper | I can't play music from MMC without skipping, but it may be something specific to madplay. |
02:56:05 | hcker2000 | ok so what do i got set wrong? and is there any way to see if the wlan card can see the wap11? |
02:56:15 | ToyKeeper | (madplay might play, then try to read, then play.. but having 2 threads would potentially fix that problem) |
02:56:20 | Dessimat0r | well... most devices read it all into memory first |
02:56:30 | Dessimat0r | but this is not how a proper pc should function |
02:56:39 | hobbs | hcker2000: did you set anything for desired SSID, or leave it empty? |
02:56:52 | hcker2000 | i set it to what my wap11 is set to |
02:57:00 | hcker2000 | and what should the brodcast ip be? |
02:57:15 | ToyKeeper | I can copy songs from MMC to ramdisk pretty quick, so I know the MMC transfer rate is far faster than mp3 bitrates... |
02:57:24 | ToyKeeper | I think the problem is how madplay reads data. |
02:57:55 | hobbs | hcker2000: I don't even think that ends up getting used in the scripts, but just take the bits that are masked off in the netmask and make them all 1. :) |
02:58:45 | hcker2000 | ok so what 1.1.1.1 |
02:58:48 | hobbs | the SD module is closed, obviously, but you can copy it and use it in OZ no problem, right? |
02:59:00 | scanline | hobbs: OZ comes with the SD module |
02:59:06 | hobbs | teaches hcker2000 what a bit is |
02:59:10 | scanline | hobbs: that's in the FAQ |
02:59:20 | hobbs | scanline: I just read it. I guess I suck. |
03:00:21 | Dessimat0r | why is the SD module closed? |
03:00:24 | hcker2000 | do i need to do a hard reboot to get the wlan working? |
03:00:25 | Dessimat0r | is some company a fool? |
03:01:13 | hobbs | Dessimat0r: because SD contains DRM crap that's supposedly still good. |
03:01:18 | Bones3D | *yawn* well, x11 runs with icewm ok... now if I can get basilisk II up and running I'll be happy. ;-) |
03:01:59 | Dessimat0r | pff... DRM |
03:02:00 | hcker2000 | what is the proxim stuff? |
03:02:55 | Dessimat0r | why the hell did sharp feel the need to put an SD slot on it? other media could have been used ;) |
03:04:53 | Bones3D | well, thanks for the help guys |
03:09:05 | hcker2000 | why dosent this work |
03:20:54 | warmi | re |
03:23:01 | Cloudchaser | hi warmi |
03:43:57 | cmerlo | hi folks |
03:44:38 | cmerlo | haven't seen anything written anywhere about this yet: |
03:44:52 | cmerlo | i tried rebooting the z today, and it hung, so i had to do a hard reset |
03:45:05 | cmerlo | now, i can't get my d-link 802.11b card working anymore |
03:45:07 | cmerlo | any guesses? |
03:46:05 | cmerlo | ping? |
03:46:10 | hobbs | cmerlo: I'm here |
03:46:15 | cmerlo | ah. hi. |
03:46:35 | hobbs | I've had reboots lock up on me before. As for the wlan card... dunno, obviously something's set up differently this time through, but I wouldn't really know what. :) |
03:46:44 | cmerlo | right :) |
03:46:52 | hobbs | you forget a lot of little things that seem like nothing but aren't. |
03:46:59 | cmerlo | it's weird, because when i first got it, i plugged it in, and it just worked |
03:47:05 | cmerlo | (iirc :) |
03:47:39 | cmerlo | my other problem is with a sandisk sd card, but it seems like everyone has that problem |
03:47:55 | hobbs | hrm. yeah, I didn't have a problem with wlan when I played with james's... sorry, can't help you. |
03:47:59 | cmerlo | and from what i'm reading, the rom upgrades cause as many problems as they're supposed to solve |
03:53:30 | hobbs | this I'll believe. |
03:53:44 | hobbs | I'm still using the ROM I bought it with. Until I can move to OZ. |
03:58:06 | rjoseph | has anyone gotten tkcPlayer (most recent version) to work under OZb3? |
04:06:18 | prpplague | TheMasterMind1: ping |

06:10:20 | badl | hey |
06:19:46 | anggarda | anyone has qtopia desktop rpm that they could dcc to me? |
06:20:31 | badl | anggarda: why not grab it off the web? |
06:20:43 | anggarda | told you, the ftp took the file off. |
06:21:02 | badl | you after the 1.6beta? or 1.5? |
06:21:04 | anggarda | sorry...you must have miss the message. |
06:21:12 | badl | yep |
06:21:19 | anggarda | badl, which one should I have? |
06:21:36 | badl | much the same ;) |
06:21:58 | anggarda | Could you spare me the 1.6beta? |
06:22:16 | anggarda | I wonder why trolltech has the files removed? |
06:22:28 | badl | don't have 1.6 sorry |
06:23:07 | anggarda | 1.5? |
06:24:08 | badl | i ahev 1.5 but its 7 meg and i have no bandwidth at the moment |
06:24:40 | anggarda | wow....7mb. |
06:24:55 | anggarda | Is it on the sharp cdrom? |
06:25:07 | badl | linux version is not |
06:25:15 | badl | i guess thats what you are after? |
06:25:44 | anggarda | yah...is it some licensing issue? |
06:26:38 | badl | anggarda: it just appears as though the trolltech ftp server is donw |
06:27:10 | anggarda | nope, i actually got into it. Its empty. |
06:27:29 | badl | ahh |
06:28:20 | badl | anggarda: down from here http://humphrey.applitec.com/zaurus/zstuff/ |
06:29:18 | anggarda | where did you get that from? I did a google/linux for alternatives sites. All pointed me to trolltech's ftp. |
06:29:32 | badl | anggarda: google is my friend ;) |
06:29:57 | anggarda | I thought it was mine too.. |
06:30:01 | badl | heh |
06:31:18 | anggarda | hmmm....there was no need to patch my kernel afterall. |
06:31:35 | badl | the the usbd net driver? |
06:31:41 | badl | is that the .... |
06:32:07 | br33zy | later |
06:32:13 | br33zy | l_a_t_e_r |
06:32:17 | anggarda | badl, yah. |
06:32:17 | badl | ? |
06:32:24 | br33zy | endl |
06:32:25 | br33zy | badl |
06:32:25 | br33zy | lol |
06:32:48 | badl | cout << "br33zy" << endl; |
06:33:09 | PascalS | I am trying to add a default gateway for when I press the sync button to connect through my Linux box to the internet |
06:33:27 | badl | PascalS: what is not working about that? |
06:33:41 | PascalS | Changing /etc/hotplug/usbdnet doesn't always do the trick. |
06:34:17 | badl | PascalS: i must admit i had random performance with that too... work like 50% of the time |
06:34:30 | PascalS | I've added a line just after the ifconfig line that adds the route, but it only works half the time. |
06:34:34 | badl | are you on redhat boxen? |
06:34:40 | PascalS | badl: yes |
06:34:54 | PascalS | But not with RH kernel |
06:35:13 | badl | PascalS: compiled your own with usbdnet patch? |
06:35:15 | PascalS | When I add the route, all is well. So its a problem on the Z side |
06:35:27 | PascalS | badl: yes, I compiled it myself. |
06:35:33 | badl | PascalS: try hitting the sync button on the base |
06:37:53 | anggarda | brb. |
06:40:38 | PascalS | sorry, phone call.. |
06:41:18 | PascalS | When I hit the button more than once, it does not come up. |
06:41:55 | PascalS | Anothing thing that happens is that the Z crashes if I insert it more than ten times between suspending it. |
06:42:28 | PascalS | I'm gonna post this on ZZ. |
06:42:31 | PascalS | brb |
06:43:12 | badl | i couldn't figure out the reason for the random performance on my redhat box... it worked fine on debain though |
06:45:11 | PascalS | I have not yet looked at the innards of the usbdnet driver on the host side(RH), maybe that is what gives the troubles. I think it is weird though that the script does not get executed each and every time. |
06:50:12 | PascalS | Hmmm. The script simply does not get called :( |
06:59:51 | PascalS | bye |
08:01:18 | NeoTron | is away: szzznoze |

08:27:21 | noiddz | morning |
08:59:34 | smee|h | too hung over to be experiencing pure joy |
09:13:07 | smee|h | rainy |
09:13:56 | smee|h | where's that new oz release we were promised :) |
09:17:12 | smee|h | has mental block...what's the perl for repeating the current iteration of a loop? |
09:20:00 | noiddz | sorry, can u ask your perl q again |
09:20:36 | smee|h | twas 'the perl for repeating the current iteration of a loop?' |
09:20:44 | smee|h | but the answer is 'redo' |
09:20:47 | smee|h | :) |
09:21:35 | noiddz | easy peasy |
09:21:59 | noiddz | must admit that i've never used it |
09:22:05 | smee|h | yeah...early + hangover |
09:22:19 | smee|h | no - I think it's my forst time too, and I'm doubting the wisdom of it |
09:22:27 | smee|h | s/forst/first/ |
09:23:48 | smee|h | hm, not so early really |
09:33:06 | noiddz | just cos larry lets you do it... |
09:33:18 | noiddz | dpoesnt mean its a good idea |
09:33:25 | smee|h | larry is generous that way |
09:35:13 | noiddz | indeed |
09:39:24 | smee|h | I really like the idea of gprs bluetooth mobile and Z with bluetooth...wonder how much that'd cost |
09:39:48 | noiddz | no isea |
09:40:04 | noiddz | i know very little abouit bluetooth |
09:40:10 | smee|h | ditto |
09:40:16 | smee|h | havent heard of anyone doing it |
09:42:27 | | bluetooth is, like, at http://www.handhelds.org/z/wiki/Is%20anyone%20working%20on%20Bluetooth%20for%203870 or at http://dnsv6.iihe.ac.be/iPAQGPRSv6/BtConfig.html .. and you might wanna take a look at http://bluez.sourceforge.net/contrib/HOWTO-Mobile-Phone |
09:42:27 | smee|h | ibot, bluetooth |
09:42:33 | noiddz | then be the first! |
09:45:04 | smee|h | bluetooth sd + wireless cf could make for good warchalking |
09:45:35 | badl | negative |
09:45:39 | smee|h | er, but without the chalk |
09:46:31 | smee|h | badl: ? |

09:50:36 | smee|h | coding a hangover cure in perl |
09:51:08 | smee|h | (if only) |
09:51:21 | badl | hehe |
09:51:27 | badl | a cure for the hangover is to drink another beer ;) |
09:51:46 | smee|h | that's a fearful idea :) |
09:51:58 | badl | fearful? |
09:52:34 | smee|h | the idea of drinking beer atm makes me feel...funny |
09:53:14 | badl | ... then why not a vodak and lemonade? |
09:53:21 | smee|h | hehe |
09:53:46 | smee|h | vodak sounds like an interesting liquor |

10:19:16 | noidd | any of you guys use your Z for email yet? |
10:20:39 | noiddz | hmm |
10:20:50 | scanline | sure, ssh and mutt |
10:21:02 | noiddz | either OZ is several orders of magnitude better at power management |
10:21:35 | noiddz | or, someone snuck in a small nucler power station in the back |
10:22:34 | scanline | there was a fusion cell in the initrd |
10:27:39 | noiddz | hehe |
10:31:12 | noiddz | now, if only we could have multiple framebuffer devives |
10:31:28 | noiddz | and we could just switch between them |
10:31:57 | noiddz | oh, evilthought |
10:49:54 | djax | Hi. |
10:50:40 | djax | I have a problem. I cannot synch my Zaurus with Qtopia Desktop. I have not updated my Zaurus. Some times before it went fine. |
10:51:03 | djax | When I open Qtopia Desktop the Zaurus freezes# |
10:51:38 | djax | When im closing QT Desktop after a while the Zaurus runs fine. |
10:51:51 | djax | QDir::readDirEntries: Cannot read the directory: /home/djax/.palmtopcenter/Documents |
10:52:18 | djax | Error: Network operation failed. Code=13 |
10:54:23 | djax | hmm |
11:17:25 | djax | ... |
12:07:01 | vilmund | anyone know whether or not the Ambicom EZJack V.90 56K CompactFlash Modem Card works fine with the Z? |
12:08:50 | badl | vilmund: it works fine |
12:09:26 | badl | vilmund: I read a post on zauruszone and the user stated they plugged it in and it ran no probs |
12:11:45 | vilmund | cool thanks |
12:12:05 | vilmund | wonder if I can walk in and pick one up at compusa or circuit city |
12:17:17 | badl | why not .. take your Z along and plug it in! |
12:22:36 | vilmund | : ) |
13:22:32 | Twiun | noiddz: pingponging? |
13:25:47 | noiddz | yes |
13:25:50 | Cloudchaser | 'mornin |
13:26:24 | noiddz | with opie-irc... if you press space when cursor is not in the bottom it closes the window |
13:27:00 | noiddz | heyas cloudchaser |
13:27:07 | smee|h | Z + 5 gig bluetooth hard disk may be fun |
13:27:18 | noiddz | hehe |
13:27:41 | noiddz | my Z currently has a 40 Gig data partition |
13:27:59 | noiddz | nfs mounted over wireless :-) |
13:28:14 | noiddz | lets see ya do that with yer palm :-) |
13:28:29 | scanline | my Z has a 453 gig partition :) |
13:30:56 | kolla | bluetooth disk? slowmess |
13:31:41 | noiddz | cool |
13:31:53 | noiddz | the z rocks |
13:31:57 | noiddz | plainly |
13:32:04 | smee|h | might be good for portable mp3/avi jukebox |
13:33:17 | smee|h | 721kbps |
13:33:57 | kolla | smee|h: over bt? |
13:34:04 | kolla | thats not bad |
13:35:00 | TheMasterMind1 | hmm |
13:35:02 | smee|h | I think that's the theoretical maximum |
13:35:06 | smee|h | reads more |
13:37:17 | smee|h | heh Japanese->english via babelfish is painful |
13:37:17 | Twiun | what's the range? |
13:38:10 | smee|h | good question |
13:43:32 | Twiun | Why, oh why do I keep typing "make isntall" instead of "make install"??? |
13:43:40 | Twiun | freudian type? |
13:43:54 | Twiun | scratches his head |
13:44:42 | smee|h | heh, lately I seem entirely unable to type 'grep', always typing 'gep' |
13:44:52 | TheMasterMind1 | alias 'make isntall'='make install' |
13:45:01 | TheMasterMind1 | alias gep=grep |
13:45:02 | TheMasterMind1 | heh |
13:45:08 | Twiun | lol |
13:45:10 | ljp- | heh good one |
13:45:25 | ljp- | I keep typing maek |
13:45:26 | Twiun | one day I'll start adding the apostrophe in there too... "make isn't all" |
13:45:42 | smee|h | I used to have gerp aliassed to grep :) |
13:46:28 | TheMasterMind1 | grr |
13:46:30 | TheMasterMind1 | smacks opie |
13:47:47 | ljp- | makes opie smack back |
13:58:21 | smee|h | £108 for a bt cf card |
13:58:24 | smee|h | 10m range |
13:59:01 | paq | is there tcp over bt? |
13:59:30 | kolla | I have a bt card that I ue with Z |
13:59:38 | | i guess bluetooth is at http://www.handhelds.org/z/wiki/Is%20anyone%20working%20on%20Bluetooth%20for%203870 or at http://dnsv6.iihe.ac.be/iPAQGPRSv6/BtConfig.html .. and you might wanna take a look at http://bluez.sourceforge.net/contrib/HOWTO-Mobile-Phone |
13:59:38 | smee|h | ibot bluetooth |
13:59:42 | kolla | run ppp against my phone with it |
14:00:05 | kolla | using affix |
14:00:10 | kolla | not bluez |
14:00:12 | paq | ya, i'd imagine it's mostly use for cellphone connectivity... |
14:00:17 | smee|h | kolla - how many devices are possible simultaneously? |
14:00:26 | kolla | dont remember |
14:00:40 | smee|h | but >1 |
14:01:02 | kolla | ofcourse |
14:01:16 | kolla | no use with just one device runniung bt on its own :) |
14:01:35 | smee|h | fair point :) |
14:01:37 | smee|h | 7 iirc |
15:29:25 | smee|h | http://www.zend.com/manual/function.leak.php, er...huh? |

16:11:19 | NeTTwerk | g'day |
16:11:27 | NeTTwerk | is there a way to beam ALL contacts from a zaurus? |
16:14:18 | Midway_ | someone cool here with an opera ipk? ^^ |
16:18:02 | plastik | hi |
16:18:04 | Midway_ | or someone with the sharp or crow rom who can make one for me? |
16:18:50 | ljp_work | cant you make one? |
16:20:50 | Midway_ | that's my prob i have the oz rom and konqueror isn't working... |
16:21:10 | | it has been said that optimized is new fully optmized opie/qte oz release at http://openzaurus.sourceforge.net/unofficial/unstable/optimized/ or update from the feed (tested from 2.9.5.5) http://openzaurus.sourceforge.net/unofficial/unstable/optimized/feed/ or or onyx4's at http://onyx4.dhs.org/feed/oz/ or get konq/e at http://131.152.105.154/feeds/ipaq/unstable/konqueror-snapshot-full_0.9.1-20020912.2_arm.ipk |
16:21:10 | kergoth | ibot optimized |
16:21:14 | kergoth | use that konq ipk |
16:21:19 | kergoth | if you're on a recent OZ release |
16:23:40 | mark | kergoth: that ip doesn't reply |
16:24:10 | kergoth | mark: yeah, the opie server died, forgot |
16:24:22 | mark | kergoth: availalbe ne wehre else? |
16:24:47 | kergoth | hm not sure |
16:24:51 | kergoth | ask in #opie |
16:26:44 | | Dessimat0r: what? |
16:26:44 | Dessimat0r | ibot prerelease |
16:26:49 | | oz prerelease is http://openzaurus.sf.net/official/unstable/20021011_1801/ |
16:26:49 | Dessimat0r | ibot oz prerelease |
16:27:27 | ljp_work | might try http://opie.handhelds.org/feed/ipaq/ |
16:28:57 | Midway_ | ah looks good |
16:30:31 | Twiun | I really should make my faq site more Zaurus-friendly... |
16:30:50 | Twiun | just had a look at it through opera on there... hmmm |
16:31:04 | Twiun | those rounded borders waste a little too much space |
16:39:22 | Midway_ | oh yes it works *yiipee* |
16:46:38 | Midway_ | but.. |
16:47:39 | Midway_ | where's the gif-plugin |
16:52:34 | tux_mike | http://weblog.burningbird.net/archives/000581.php |
16:58:56 | Twiun | lol |
16:58:59 | Twiun | poor XML |
17:02:11 | tux_mike | bah. XML deserves it |
17:02:43 | tux_mike | bbiaf |
17:07:01 | NeTTwerk | argh. |
17:07:10 | NeTTwerk | the stock zaurus apps suck ass. |
17:09:18 | kergoth | NeTTwerk: yes, they do |
17:10:35 | cdm | hey, it's San! |
17:10:58 | cdm | NeTTwerk: what are you doing these days? Not still with VA are you? |
17:16:54 | NeTTwerk | cdm yeah i am... |
17:17:03 | NeTTwerk | who are you? :) |
17:17:18 | NeTTwerk | i'm trying to sync my contacts somehow with my nokia phone.. |
17:22:00 | tux_mike | gah |
17:22:04 | cdm | NeTTwerk: we talked once or twice online. BUt I know some people you used to work with at Rebel/Corel. |
17:22:07 | tux_mike | why does my mom have to trash her machine |
17:23:20 | NeTTwerk | oh cool. |
17:23:42 | cdm | NeTTwerk: plus I had 2 "corel" netwinders. |
17:23:48 | NeTTwerk | cool man |
17:23:51 | NeTTwerk | :) |
17:23:54 | cdm | so I saw your nick-rom everytime I turned them on. ;) |
17:24:01 | NeTTwerk | i've been taking trips down memorylane myself |
17:24:03 | NeTTwerk | mahaha |
17:24:07 | NeTTwerk | yeah NeTTrom was dope.. |
17:24:14 | NeTTwerk | man. |
17:24:22 | NeTTwerk | the girl in these Dell commercials is hot.. |
17:24:24 | cdm | I work for QNX. ;) |
17:24:29 | NeTTwerk | ahhh coolness. |
17:24:36 | cdm | you still in the USA? |
17:24:38 | NeTTwerk | do you know uh.. Pat... hmm |
17:24:41 | NeTTwerk | cant remember his last name.. |
17:24:44 | NeTTwerk | he was one of the photon guys |
17:24:49 | NeTTwerk | yeah i'm still in the bay area |
17:25:25 | hash|lunch | does the oz feed have sdl libs? |
17:25:43 | kergoth | hash|lunch: no, get them elsewhere though |
17:25:55 | hash|lunch | ok |
17:26:00 | hash|lunch | btw, is the feed useable yet? |
17:26:18 | kergoth | hash|lunch: not recommended. I would recommend flashing to a prerelease, then upgrading packages incrementally as i fix things |
17:26:22 | | i think oz prerelease is http://openzaurus.sf.net/official/unstable/20021011_1801/ |
17:26:22 | kergoth | ibot oz prerelease |
17:26:33 | kergoth | actually, i'll throw up a new one in a few minutes |
17:26:34 | hash|lunch | ok |
17:26:39 | hash|lunch | i'll wait then |
17:27:51 | hash|lunch | so 40-24 would mean 40 megs of cache, 24 megs of ramdisk? |
17:28:00 | kergoth | s/cache/heap/; |
17:28:25 | hash|lunch | would 12 megs be enough for a ramdisk? |
17:28:30 | hash|lunch | i never store anything there anyway |
17:28:53 | kergoth | hash|lunch: 'enough'? |
17:29:05 | hash|lunch | enough for whatever temp stuff the system needs |
17:29:10 | kergoth | hash|lunch: you could run a system fine without one at all, if you install your apps to cf or sd, or are satisfied with the 16mb |
17:29:11 | TheMasterMind1 | yea 12 should be plenty if you don't actually use it |
17:29:25 | kergoth | hash|lunch: 'temp' stuff is in /tmp, a ramfs partition. compeltely seperate from the persistant ramdisk. |
17:29:33 | hash|lunch | wow |
17:29:33 | hash|lunch | cool |
17:29:40 | kergoth | hash|lunch: if you dont use it, feel free to have 64mb of heap |
17:29:42 | kergoth | hash|lunch: ;) |
17:29:56 | hash|lunch | is performance better? |
17:30:04 | kergoth | ? |
17:30:21 | hash|lunch | opie performance? |
17:30:24 | kergoth | if you need that much ram, and can use it, it will benefit you. otherwise, no. |
17:30:33 | hash|lunch | i see |
17:30:37 | kergoth | its like your desktop. adding another 256mb wont do a fucking thing unless you utilize it |
17:30:45 | hash|lunch | i see |
17:30:58 | hash|lunch | the Z has 64 mb, and my ipaq has 32, and the Z feels more snappy |
17:31:10 | hash|lunch | so i was just wondering |
17:31:24 | hash|lunch | actually, ipaq has a 16 mb heap |
17:31:25 | kergoth | hash|lunch: verxion reported that it was faster as well |
17:31:32 | kergoth | hash|lunch: than his ipaq. we never figured out why |
17:32:06 | hash|lunch | is the Z's kernel preemptive? |
17:32:32 | kergoth | no. |
17:32:36 | kergoth | its an old as dirt 2.4.6 kernel |
17:32:37 | kergoth | heh |
17:33:12 | hash|lunch | dang |
17:33:19 | hash|lunch | wonder why |
17:33:40 | hash|lunch | sharp hardware conspiracy |
17:33:46 | ljp_work | postemptive |
17:34:33 | hash|lunch | kergoth: and the pre-release is going to be semi-ok? |
17:34:40 | hash|lunch | at least so i dont have to do links and stuff manually? |
17:34:53 | kergoth | hash|lunch: you shouldnt have to do any linking manually -now- |
17:34:55 | kergoth | heh |
17:34:59 | hash|lunch | cool |
17:35:14 | hash|lunch | well, i'll be wating for the next pre-release |
17:35:39 | hash|lunch | you did 3 pre-relesase in one day? |
17:35:44 | hash|lunch | yeserday? |
17:36:00 | kergoth | hash|lunch: yes, numerous releasses to iron out the final kinks before the release |
17:36:39 | hash|lunch | oh |
17:37:01 | kergoth | hash|lunch: minor cleanups and fixes.. removing bootup messages that confuse the user, that sort of deal |
17:37:16 | hash|lunch | i see |
17:39:05 | hash|lunch | qtopiagnuboy seems to be fast and all |
17:39:12 | hash|lunch | but it draws directly to the fb |
17:39:24 | hash|lunch | and once you loose window focus, you cant get it back |
17:39:47 | hash|lunch | would like to help on that |
17:39:59 | hash|lunch | GAMEBOY KICKS ASS |
17:40:29 | hash|lunch | needs to grow up |
17:40:34 | kergoth | hehe |
17:42:04 | ljp_work | heh I read hash|lunch needs to throwup |
17:42:10 | hash|lunch | haha |
17:42:25 | hash|lunch | did anyone play those games from that company that made stratigicassult |
17:42:25 | hash|lunch | ? |
17:42:38 | hash|lunch | they use sdl and are freekishly fast |
17:43:26 | kergoth | hash|lunch: Neo's games? i bought a few. still need to get IF |
17:43:34 | hash|lunch | i was supprised how fast the 206 arm processor was |
17:47:49 | Dessimat0r | does Opie draw directly to the framebuffer? |
17:48:10 | hash|lunch | yup |
17:48:13 | hash|lunch | qtemb does it |
17:48:16 | Dessimat0r | ah ;) |
17:49:05 | ljp_work | actually, opie first draws to a quasar in sector g6-5b, and then the fb |
17:49:18 | kergoth | ljp_work: shh dont tell them! |
17:49:25 | Dessimat0r | rofl |
17:50:19 | ljp_work | uh oh.. |
17:50:57 | Dessimat0r | brb |
17:54:01 | jbardin | anyone know hwto fix a kinked neck? |
17:54:36 | kergoth | I learned when i was training how to crack my neck, generally releases the tension, though it gets me some weird looks when i just lean my head and they hear a crack |
17:54:39 | kergoth | hehe |
17:54:50 | jbardin | hmmm |
17:55:32 | jbardin | man this hurts like a muthre fuckewr |
17:55:36 | ljp_work | chiropractor can do wonders when you cant do it yourself |
17:55:48 | kergoth | ljp_work: true that |
17:58:48 | jbardin | hmm the only chiropractors in tampa are ones that advertize massage therepy in quotes |
18:34:17 | angry | anybody have any idea when xandros will release |
19:07:53 | Mantus | anyone know if sharp has released more info on the new zaurus? |
19:08:17 | kergoth | you mean the japanese only unit? |
19:09:18 | Mantus | kergoth: the one with the 640x480 screen |
19:09:25 | Mantus | and clamshell design |
19:09:44 | kergoth | yeah, the japanese only unit |
19:09:48 | Mantus | blah |
19:09:50 | kergoth | i dont think they've released any new specs on it |
19:10:28 | Mantus | i hope it comes over here |
19:10:51 | NeoTron | japanese only would point to the fact that it won't |
19:10:53 | NeoTron | but that's just me |
19:11:10 | Mantus | NeoTron: maybe it means that its currently japan only |
19:11:19 | kergoth | well, sniper and the others made it sound like it wont be, and that other new units are coming to the US |
19:11:23 | kergoth | different market, here. |
19:11:30 | NeoTron | just like the A300 I'm pretty sure it's Japan only |
19:13:40 | Mantus | a300 not very good anyway |
19:14:53 | NeoTron | the A300 rocks |
19:14:57 | NeoTron | it's an awesome PDA |
19:15:03 | NeoTron | very small |
19:15:37 | Mantus | no cf |
19:15:45 | NeoTron | you can get a sleeve for it |
19:15:49 | NeoTron | and it's still an awesome PDA |
19:15:49 | Mantus | no better than a clie |
19:16:06 | NeoTron | it's running Linux, it is faster, it's better |
19:16:07 | kergoth | what does whether its better than a clie have to do with whether or not its an awesome pda? |
19:16:16 | kergoth | competitive comparison does not define a thing |
19:16:17 | gurok | Hi, anyone know where I can get a version of the Qtopia Desktop for Linux that works ? |
19:16:18 | kergoth | heh |
19:17:37 | mike_ | and at least it's not a sony product |
19:18:42 | Mantus | whats wrong with sony? |
19:25:56 | Mantus | kergoth: hows 2.9.7 coming> |
19:33:49 | Speedy2 | re |
19:38:57 | Mantus | anyone know how much power the strongarm and xscale procs use? |
19:41:26 | oGMo | Mantus: not a whole not, but otoh much more than is necessary |
19:41:50 | oGMo | at 200MHz+, no fpu, they aren't bad |
19:42:13 | oGMo | i thought they had a DSP, too, but i dunno the details there |
19:42:57 | Mantus | im just wondering how many watts it draws at full speed |
19:43:04 | Speedy2 | ...? |
19:43:27 | oGMo | Mantus: there was a post on the list about that |
19:43:41 | oGMo | Mantus: the light dwarfs the cpu in terms of power |
19:43:52 | Speedy2 | What you be talking 'bout ? |
19:43:55 | Mantus | oGMo: i know |
19:44:17 | Mantus | Speedy2: xscale/strongarm power consumption |
19:44:31 | Speedy2 | Ok |
19:44:35 | Speedy2 | What would you like to know? |
19:44:52 | oGMo | oh |
19:44:54 | Speedy2 | StrongARM ~400mW @ 200MHz |
19:45:06 | oGMo | i missed the "use" part on your original question, heh |
19:45:29 | Mantus | Speedy2: how about xscale @ 400MHz |
19:46:19 | Speedy2 | I haven't had the chance to profile that one yet |
19:46:33 | Speedy2 | More or less depending on the cache issues |
19:46:48 | Speedy2 | Cache is what burns the most amount of powe |
19:46:50 | Speedy2 | Power |
19:47:06 | Mantus | really |
19:47:16 | Speedy2 | Yes |
19:47:16 | Mantus | i thought it was the central clock |
19:47:37 | Speedy2 | It depends on which generation processor |
19:47:51 | Speedy2 | Both SA and XScale use a lot of gated clocks |
19:47:59 | Speedy2 | So they cut down on the clock tree power consumption |
19:48:34 | Mantus | i was having fantasies of a pda with a crusoe but i think power would be an issue |
19:49:00 | Speedy2 | That would suck |
19:49:08 | Speedy2 | Crusoe is not all that power efficient |
19:49:40 | Mantus | Speedy2: dont they claim 1watt |
19:50:04 | Speedy2 | Yeah, but it's more. |
19:50:19 | Mantus | ioc |
19:50:36 | Mantus | does the xscale have a fpu? |
19:51:46 | Speedy2 | No, XScale has no FPU |
19:51:51 | Speedy2 | PXA250 specifically. |
19:52:08 | oGMo | Speedy2: does the SA have a DSP? |
19:52:12 | Speedy2 | No. |

20:50:40 | kergoth | benmeyer: then altered the ui for a pda size device? |
20:51:07 | benmeyer | yup |
20:51:12 | kergoth | nice. |
20:51:13 | benmeyer | and striped out some kde stuff |
20:51:18 | kergoth | yea |
20:51:21 | kergoth | cool |
20:51:50 | kergoth | benmeyer: what do you think, is networksetup solid enough to be included with the next OZ release? |
20:51:54 | kergoth | benmeyer: we're in the testing phase for it now |
20:51:58 | | it has been said that oz prerelease is http://openzaurus.sf.net/official/unstable/20021011_1801/ |
20:51:58 | kergoth | ibot oz prerelease |
20:52:35 | benmeyer | kergoth: it si solid, just depends on what "features" you want |
20:52:38 | benmeyer | it doesn't have ppp |
20:52:45 | benmeyer | doesn't have 802.11 monitoring |
20:52:55 | benmeyer | and doenn't let you configure usb unless it is plugged in |
20:53:15 | kergoth | well, netsetup didnt have usb configuration at all :) |
20:53:16 | benmeyer | kergoth: do you think it is stable? |
20:53:21 | benmeyer | found any bugs? |
20:53:26 | kergoth | I still havent gotten off my ass and played with it yet :) |
20:53:29 | kergoth | = slacker |
20:53:31 | benmeyer | ah, ok |
20:53:46 | kergoth | last time i tried, the .pro files had incorrect paths |
20:53:52 | kergoth | wonder if thats still the case |
20:53:54 | kergoth | hey Twiun |
20:54:04 | benmeyer | well once you guys to then we shale talk again about when it is stable :-D seriusly I plan on working on the ppp module later next week and the week after that |

21:05:09 | ljp- | what!? there's someone running sharp's rom? |

22:16:40 | Cam___ | hi anyone home? |
22:17:01 | TheMasterMind1 | no |
22:17:15 | kergoth | hey cam, how goes it |
22:17:40 | Cam___ | ok thanks :) |
22:18:02 | Cam___ | I'm struggling to find time to do hobby stuff, but apart from that.... how's Opie? |
22:18:31 | mickeyl | opie progresses like a championchip horse :) |
22:18:44 | kergoth | indeed it does. the opie folks are doing a great job |
22:20:11 | Cam___ | I wonder is anyone doing anything interesting for the Java contest? |
22:20:53 | Cam___ | does anyone even have anything in the Java tab other than the two demo apps? |
22:22:04 | Cam___ | either Java people are very secretive... or no-one bothered with it? |
22:22:45 | hobbs | I use Javanoid. But that lives in my games tab. :) |
22:23:33 | mickeyl | um... to be honest... i think java sucks as a language... and even if you love java... the Qt API is so much nicer than AWT or even Swing... |
22:23:57 | tharin | YO! I am finally on a wireless network with my z thanks to dhcpd |
22:24:16 | mickeyl | congratulations tharin. wlan is simply cool. |
22:24:37 | tharin | thanks buddy |
22:24:48 | hobbs | agreed. java is pretty icky. |
22:24:54 | hobbs | and wlan is _very_ cool. :) |
22:27:32 | hobbs | ever notice how channels on OPN are so rarely topiclocked? :) |
22:27:56 | kergoth | hobbs: most people dont like topic locking |
22:28:18 | hobbs | yeah, actually, I think it's a really convenient place to put stuff that needs to persist for a while. |
22:28:46 | kergoth | hobbs: agreed |
22:28:55 | noiddz | tee hee |
