00:33.04CosmicPenguinhey
00:51.32MonMothais there any particular reason the input to the webpal is 8VAC?
00:51.49MonMothaI would have expected something like 5VDC, something normal digital parts use :)
00:52.02MonMothainstead they feed it 8VAC then immediately knock it down to DC
00:54.06CosmicPenguinMonMotha: probably for the video drivers
00:54.17CosmicPenguinMonMotha: The TV encoder needs strange voltages
00:54.24MonMothahum, good point
00:59.25MonMothahum, looks like it just needs 5V
01:02.34CosmicPenguinMonMotha: there is something about regulating the drop in voltage or anything... I
01:02.49CosmicPenguinI am sure somebody who knows what the hell they are talking about can tell you
01:05.30MonMothalots of stuff that wants internal regulation just takes like 6-9V as input, runs it through a simple linear regulator, and gets 5V off the other side...who knows
01:05.52MonMothaI will say that video encoder gets damn hot tho...
01:07.28MonMothaI really do dislike the fact that my webpal came with like no screws in it
01:07.40MonMothaI don't mind right now, but eventually I'm going to want to put it back together!

08:23.04anderseeTimRiker: evening.  just updated the tuxscreen buildroot a bit...  Rebuilding w uClibc 0.9.17...
08:23.49TimRikerlocales yet?
08:24.17TimRikerm$ SQL 2000 worm taking over the net as we speak.
08:24.58anderseeTimRiker: yup
08:25.09TimRikeryup to which?
08:25.24anderseeTimRiker: enable locale support, and it'll add full locale support for ~350 locales.  Adds just 250k.
08:25.51TimRikersweet. is that code complete now? or still in progress?
08:26.09anderseeTimRiker: configuration for locale support sucks -- isn't merged into the config system so you have to hand edit a file
08:26.44TimRikerah. k.
08:27.07anderseeTimRiker: Well, there are a few todo items.  mostly features, optimizations, enhanced c++ support, etc.  It is quite complete as is though.
08:28.03anderseeTimRiker: One nice thing, is if you enable WCHAR but not LOCALES, you get quite complete stub locale support... :)
08:28.27TimRikercool. that sounds useful.
08:28.34anderseeTimRiker: The stub is complete enought to build the whole debian base system with.... :)
08:30.04anderseeI also posted updated devel environments about an hour ago, with uClibc 0.9.17.
08:30.53anderseeNot extensively tested, but I can chroot into them and build dynamicly linked hello.c with both gcc and g++ on x86, arm, and powerpc.
08:31.43anderseeI need to fire up phoenix and try out mips as well
08:36.16anderseeTimRiker: btw, I've been using nail (the powerpc box) a _lot_ recently for building and testing.
08:36.42anderseeoops
08:37.32TimRikersweet. I "aquired" another similar box. ;-) I need to get it setup. glad it's helping.
08:38.02andersee:)
08:40.15TimRikergot a bzflag server up on the fragfarm at xm.
08:41.01TimRikerwas running 20 players constant last week. xm says "uh, you're using more than a t1 of bandwidth..."
08:41.41TimRikerthey setup a dedicated box for me and I limited players to 12, it's still sending like 350kbs outgoing.
08:41.56TimRikerguess I'll be working on net code again. ;-)
08:44.35anderseeTimRiker: wow, I had no idea it used that much bandwidth
08:45.32anderseetuxscreen boots and runs with uClibc 0.9.17
08:45.37anderseeGuess its time to ship
08:45.38andersee:)
08:45.51TimRikerme neither. outgoing bandwidth is n*n though. need to merge packets better.
08:45.55anderseetoo bad I don't have any gold cds
08:46.07TimRikerheh
08:46.50TimRikeryou can do a tux release, but you have to build/test x on it. ;-) or any other gui that you like, but I think they are all broken save X.
08:51.13TimRikerbuilding x is easy. and it's nice to run mozilla remotely. ;-)
08:59.36andersee:)
09:40.04anderseeoops
09:40.19anderseeI dunno if my touchscreen is working or not.
09:40.32anderseePerhaps I should add gpm

15:44.15file:)
15:44.19anderseeI've tested x86, arm, powerpc, and mips for this release.  Everyone else is on their own.
15:44.32filelol
15:45.41fileandersee: evil, evil
15:46.16anderseeI suppose I could have tested SH on my dreamcast.  But I didn't.
16:33.29TheMasterMind1andersee: nice
16:33.45TheMasterMind1andersee: does uclibc break binary compatibility with programs compiled with libc?
16:46.12anderseeTheMasterMind1: I'm not sure I understand the question
16:46.27anderseeTheMasterMind1: uClibc has _never_ been binary compatible with glibc
16:46.39TheMasterMind1andersee: alright, that answers my question
16:48.13anderseeTheMasterMind1: ideally, everything that is sanely written and compiles vs glibc should also compile without changes using uClibc
16:48.58TheMasterMind1ah, cool
16:58.32Russ|werkactually no, he broke it
16:58.47Russ|werkanything compiled with 0.9.16 needs to be recompiled
16:59.11Russ|werksomething about stat64 and comparing ints to longs
16:59.24TheMasterMind1hehe
17:00.05Russ|werkanyway, I just stopped by to pick a couple things up
17:00.08Russ|werkcongrats andersee

17:22.20filemy I-Opener is supposedly going to be sent out today
17:22.21anderseeCosmicPenguin: dunno, havn't looked outside yet
17:22.43anderseeCosmicPenguin: was up all night getting a uClibc release out
17:22.50CosmicPenguinandersee: cool... is it out?
17:23.05anderseeCosmicPenguin: yup.
17:23.08CosmicPenguinsweet
17:23.48anderseeCosmicPenguin: I also updated the devel system images -- x86, powerpc, and arm
17:23.51CosmicPenguinNo way... full locale support?
17:24.02anderseeCosmicPenguin: full locale support
17:24.14anderseeCosmicPenguin: though I have it disabled in the devel images
17:24.26CosmicPenguin<monetary.h> and evdrything?
17:25.05anderseeCosmicPenguin: nope.  No monetary.h yet
17:25.15CosmicPenguindamn
17:25.16CosmicPenguin:)
17:26.09anderseeCosmicPenguin: but shared libstdc++ is working properly now...
17:26.09andersee:)
17:26.23fileandersee: you amaze me again, although I don't use uClibc...
17:26.25Russwait, its supposed to be winter?
17:26.58CosmicPenguinandersee: thats good news
17:26.58TheMasterMind1Russ: depends, where are you located
17:27.05fileRuss: well... it is here
17:27.09fileit's cold out, and snow is everywhere
17:29.17CosmicPenguinAll I know is that its 20 degrees in Orlando, and 45 degrees in Salt Lake CIty
17:29.28Russits a lot warmer here
17:31.16CosmicPenguinandersee: where are you hiding the toolchain only buildroots?
17:32.57anderseeCosmicPenguin: you mean this?  http://www.uclibc.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/toolchain/
17:33.14anderseeCosmicPenguin: or this? http://www.uclibc.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/buildroot/
17:33.27CosmicPenguinno, the toolchain.  I thought you had a tarball for it>?
17:33.28anderseeCosmicPenguin: or this? ftp://ftp.uclibc.org/uClibc/root_fs_0.9.17-i386.bz2
17:33.56anderseeGo to the link above and click on "Download tarball"
17:34.16anderseeIt'll generate a snapshot from cvs on-the-fly
17:34.42CosmicPenguinWell, now, isn't that cool
17:35.14andersee:)
17:35.29anderseeI got tired of keeping up to date tarballs
17:47.26CosmicPenguinanyone know of a good way to calculate the day of the week for a date before 1/1/1970?
