00:24.03CosmicPenguinsorphin?
00:25.11sorphinCosmicPenguin: yes?
00:25.25CosmicPenguinsorphin: what was that about the cdrecord-pro vs dvdrecord?
00:25.37CosmicPenguinI know that caused you issues under LInux - which one do I use?
00:26.07sorphincdrecord-prodvd is the only thing i've seen burn properly/recognize media... dvdrecord is just a hack of cdrecord that needs a lot of work
00:27.20sorphinprodvd doesn't have source (since cdrecord isn't gpl'd he didn't have to w/ the prodvd portions)
00:27.23sorphinbut it works fine
00:27.33sorphinand it's free for non-comm
00:31.21CosmicPenguincdrecord-prodvd it is
00:32.37sorphinnod
00:34.20CosmicPenguingrrr... I think that transcode has borked audio

01:21.50CosmicPenguinsorphin: do Ineed to send any special flags to cdrecord-prodvd?
01:25.08sorphinCosmicPenguin: not really
01:25.44CosmicPenguin--device 1,1,0 -dao dvd.iso then, eh?
01:26.08sorphinmight wanna also use --iso-info or whatever that flag is
01:26.15sorphinso it reads the size from the file
01:26.19sorphininstead of guessing
01:26.54CosmicPenguin--isosize?
01:27.56CosmicPenguinhere goes
01:38.47sorphinCosmicPenguin: yeah
01:39.35CosmicPenguinsorphin: does it take forever the first time?
01:39.49CosmicPenguinit printed Track 01: Total bytes read/written: 11239424/11270144 (5503 sectors).
01:39.54CosmicPenguinand now its sitting here with the light on
01:39.58CosmicPenguinfor about 10 minutes
01:40.23ade|indybed calls, later folks
01:42.17CosmicPenguinNow its done
01:43.27CosmicPenguinsorphin: one more question - whats this -dvd-video flag for mkisofs I keep seeing?
01:43.33CosmicPenguinmy mkisofs doesn't have one of those
01:44.22CosmicPenguinnow it does.. :
01:44.24CosmicPenguin:)
01:45.51sorphinyou need a newer mkisofs ;)
01:46.12sorphinit aligns the files properly in the tree
01:46.27sorphinso that VIDEO_TS.IFO is the 1st *file*
01:46.35sorphinif it's not, the dvd won't play
01:46.53sorphinso make sure your filenames are all caps too ;)
01:46.56sorphinit relies on that
01:50.43CosmicPenguinyeah - I got that.  I checked with isoinfo, and VIDEO_TS.IFO is now the first file
01:50.56CosmicPenguinman, my audio is way off - I hope thats just mplayer being gay
01:51.24sorphinwe'll see
01:51.33CosmicPenguinyes we wil
01:53.16sorphinand yes, it does take forever, esp to write the leadout
01:53.32sorphinfyi, you can do a quick blank usually
01:53.39sorphinyou don't have to full blank every time
01:53.55sorphintakes a minute vs longer
01:54.05CosmicPenguinI'll store that for later
01:54.55CosmicPenguinsorphin: troubleshooting time... the audio and video progressively get farther and farther apart as the video plays
01:55.03CosmicPenguinpossible reasons?
02:12.25chouimatCosmicPenguin: synchro problem?
02:13.31sorphinCosmicPenguin: that would happen when you mux'd
02:14.25CosmicPenguinI tried adjusting the start time - but it doesn't seem like the offset is the same for  the whole clip
02:14.52sorphinCosmicPenguin: now you know why i've wanted to use one of my tivos (mainly my series 2) for hw encoding
02:15.00sorphineliminates that issue
02:15.12CosmicPenguinheh...
02:15.43chouimatsorphin: what the difference between a serie1 and a serie2?
02:17.04prpplagueevening all
02:17.07chouimathey prpplague
02:17.29sorphinchouimat: the cpu for one, the encoding chip/decoder for another
02:17.29prpplaguewhats cookin this evening guys?
02:17.57sorphinchouimat: series 1 is PPC & a sony encoder & an ibm decoder
02:17.59chouimatsorphin: ok
02:18.10sorphinchouimat: series 2 is a 5432 MIPS w/ a broadcom encoder and decoder
02:19.12sorphinCosmicPenguin: i dunno.. i do know tho, that whether i use dvd2one or instantcopy to shrink a dual layver dvd down to 1 dvd
02:19.24sorphini always have mpeg glitching
02:19.37sorphinand i know it has to do w/ my setup, because morn never gets it
02:23.49prpplaguesorphin: playing the dct unit from bz?
02:24.21sorphinprpplague: no
02:24.30sorphinprpplague: haven't gotten mine yet, won't till later this week

02:25.07prpplaguehmm, is there a GBA sdk?
02:25.27sorphinprpplague: ?
02:25.39chouimatprpplague: google for devkitadvance
02:26.22CosmicPenguinsorphin: remind me never to blank a DVD again.. :(
02:26.54prpplaguechouimat: i am, i just was curious if anyone here had used one
02:27.25sorphinCosmicPenguin: heh
02:27.38jacques_goneibot: seen tim_tiker
02:27.44jacques_gone: i haven't seen 'tim_tiker'
02:27.44chouimatprpplague: I didn't have a flashcart yet ... and my gba is dead so I'm waiting for the SP ..
02:27.44jacques_goneibot: seen tim_riker
02:27.44jacques_gone: i haven't seen 'tim_riker'
02:27.53CosmicPenguinis there an echo in here?
02:27.57jacques_goneibot: seen timriker
02:27.57timriker <~timr@rikers.org> was last seen on IRC in channel #bzflag, 2d 2h 18m 40s ago, saying: 'no ts on a laptop'.
02:28.08sorphinjacques_gone: can it
02:28.30jacques_gonehuh?
02:28.37chouimatprpplague: http://www.gbadev.org/
02:28.41sorphinjacques_gone: you asked 3 fscking times
02:28.45jacques_gonetypos arent allowed here?
02:28.56sorphinheh
02:29.31GPSFancheck out the dct5000 wiki page http://elinux.org/wiki/DCT5000 I've added links to datasheets of most of the major chips. and described what I see out the serial port.
02:29.41sorphintho if tim is even on
02:29.51jacques_goneGPSFan: excellent!
02:29.54sorphin<PROTECTED>
02:29.59jacques_gonecant wait to get mine
02:30.24GPSFanjacques_gone: it looks like all the software on it is a boot loader.
02:30.58sorphinGPSFan: as long as it's not like the webpal w/ no jtag :P
02:31.27GPSFansorphin: the cpu has jtag, but I don't know where it comes out yet.
02:31.46sorphinGPSFan: that's all that matters
02:31.50sorphinas long as it has it
02:31.53sorphinwe can snag it :P
02:32.40prpplaguechouimat: nice i was thinking about doing some stuff for my sons gba
02:33.15chouimatprpplague: hehe ... if you can post a schematic of a cart :)
02:33.31prpplaguechouimat: ?
02:33.42chouimatprpplague: mn
02:34.14prpplaguechouimat: from what i read, you can just buy a flash card and put your game on it
02:34.22CosmicPenguinthe blnak just keeps and going, and going......
02:34.33chouimatprpplague: they are very hard to get in canada :(
02:34.39prpplaguechouimat: oh?
02:35.19filechouimat: what are you looking for?
02:35.34chouimatfile: flashcard for GBA
02:36.02filechouimat: I'll see what I can do...
02:36.07jacques_goneGPSFan: were you able to detect any activity on the ethernet port?
02:36.08prpplaguechouimat: http://www.save2much.com/buy/search/Mr_Flash_64M_Card
02:37.36GPSFanjacques_gone: no, I had tcpdump watching while I excercised every button combo I could and nada. there is no mac address sticker on the box, and the AMD chip doesn't have an eeprom neer it for the mac address, so it might be set by firmware.
02:39.32jacques_gonehmm too bad I was thinking maybe it could tftp or someting
02:39.49jacques_gonen dl looked promising
02:40.27GPSFanjacques_gone: yep, I cant tell you how many times I selected that one while looking at tcpdump, hoping for some activity.
02:41.52GPSFanjacques_gone: since tim said that lineo had the kernel working, I think there must be some way to download software into th box with out opening it. those screws are a bitch.
02:43.52chouimatGPSFan: which form?
02:43.58jacques_goneGPSFan: are they torx ?
02:44.13GPSFanthey look like reverse torx
02:44.25jacques_gone??
02:44.38GPSFanmaybe I can find a torx screw that will fit over them.
02:45.33jacques_gonemaybe I shold start looking for the proper tool now...
02:46.11GPSFantims dremmel method works, I used vice grips, now that they are out they are gone!
02:46.51chouimatI know a place for special screwdrvier here but they sold them for 40 - 80 CAD each
02:47.57filechouimat: I'm getting a 128MB PC133 SDRAM stick for $31 CAD with tax and shipping :)
02:48.08chouimatfile: hehe
02:48.41filechouimat: brand new too
02:49.08GPSFanthe dct5000 boot process seems to be looking for some sort of rf link, as it scans through a list of frequencies, many of which appear here: http://www.scte.org/documents/pdf/ANSISCTE5512002DVS178.pdf
02:49.20jacques_goneGPSFan: dremel method = use cuttof wheel to make a slot in the screw?
02:49.43GPSFanjacques_gone: yep, it took tim about 5 minutes to do all 3 screws.
02:50.16jacques_gonecool
02:50.17chouimatGPSFan: did you put a RF signal to it?
02:51.31GPSFanchouimat: how, I don't have any head-end cable gear. and don't have cable.
02:51.44jacques_gonemy tivo sometimes downloads stuff from channels with black and white patterns - I assume some sort of digital encoding
02:51.57chouimatGPSFan: have an antena?
02:52.36GPSFanchouimat: yes, but only get 3 uhf stations here, all the freq's were in the 75-100MHz range.
02:52.52chouimatGPSFan: ok
02:53.53jacques_goneGPSFan: what are the chances of us getting any more information about of any of the entities who have had linux booting on these devices?
02:53.58sorphinjacques_gone: umm
02:53.59sorphinno
02:54.11sorphinjacques_gone: that's not 'digital encoding'
02:54.23jacques_gonesorphin: waht is it?
02:54.23sorphinit's data embedded in CC
02:54.34GPSFanjacques_gone: tim is our best bet.
02:54.58sorphinjacques_gone: it's how they push guide these days
02:55.03filejacques_gone & GPSFan: good luck with your hacking efforts
02:55.15GPSFanfile: thanks.
02:55.21sorphinthey can push about 40MB of data on that '1/2 hour screen of pattern'
02:55.24jacques_gonesorphin: seriously?? you mean I can disconnect the phone line? that would be SOO sweet!
02:55.37sorphinjacques_gone: not quite
02:55.52sorphinyou still need the phoneline for the file that allows your tivo to use the data
02:55.57sorphinyou just need it for less time
02:56.22jacques_goneah yeah otherwise they would have no subscrption security
02:56.24sorphinnot like your tivo can talk to them through the cable to confirm you're still sub'd, etc :P
02:56.37jacques_gonenod
02:57.02jacques_gonei ordered cable broadband at home and i would like to totally get rid of my dsl and phone line
02:57.12sorphinheh
02:57.19sorphinhave fun
03:02.21jacques_goneGPSFan: when did tim shop the boxes out?
03:02.25jacques_goneship
03:03.05GPSFanjacques_gone: Thursday.
03:03.34jacques_goneGPSFan: ah OK then hopefully mine will arrive on mon or tues
03:03.43GPSFansorphin: jtag comes out to j7, it has a small header soldered on to it. I just rang the pins out from the cpu.
03:04.03chouimat|tvGPSFan: how many pin?
03:05.03GPSFanit's a 10 pin header with half the pins grounded. but it's real small, smaller than the 2mm ide connector.
03:05.49chouimat|tvhmmmm 130CAD for a old mac with a ppc603 ....
03:07.25filehow's all the Webpal hacking going?

04:03.53filechouimat|tv: it's a 32MB
04:04.59chouimat|tvfile: how about 15$ including shipping

18:46.04kergothits sunday
18:46.08kergothI'm always stuck cleaning on sunday
18:46.14CosmicPenguinsame here...:)
18:46.21kergothcause i was going to do it saturday but procrastinated it
18:46.23kergothsame shit every week
18:46.26kergoth:)
18:46.42CosmicPenguinBut today the SO is at a movie, and I have the responsibility of trying to write this god forsaken video to DVD for review by the in-laws tonight
18:46.46kergothibot: seen mallum
18:46.48mallum <~mallum@pc-80-193-218-21-hw.blueyonder.co.uk> was last seen on IRC in channel #elinux, 19h 49m 24s ago, saying: 'kergoth: gotcha'.
18:47.01kergothhm, wonder if he ever resolved the 'tinylogin segfaults when built with gcc3.x' bug
18:47.07kergothjust ran into it
18:47.18sorphinkergoth: hey mr, OZ, i know you're proud of rc3, but for me, having never messed w/ OZ before.. should i start w/ that, or 3.0 1st?
18:47.31kergothrc3 has bugs, but 3.0 has more.
18:47.37kergothour rcs are more stable than our releases, so far
18:47.50sorphinheh
18:47.52chouimatsorphin: use 2.9.5 :)
18:48.02sorphinkergoth: that doesn't look good for 3.1 final then :P
18:48.08sorphinchouimat: um.. i'm not talking about gcc
18:48.18kergoththere was a oz 2.9.5
18:48.22kergothhehe
18:48.26kergoth2.9.5.5 even
18:48.29kergothwas pretty stable actually
18:48.31sorphinheh
18:48.49kergothsorphin: for the most part the issue is we include Opie, which isnt released.
18:48.57kergothsorphin: we're following cvs. which means stability is up in the air
18:49.07kergothfor the GUI anyway. the base system is solid.
18:49.17kergothcourse that also means we get lets of new features
18:49.19kergothheh
18:50.01kergothGOD usb-storage pisses me off
18:50.05kergothit crashes constantly
18:50.22sorphinnod

18:50.41kergothchouimat: and what, copy the images over usb networking?
18:50.45kergothchouimat: like _thats_ any more stable
18:50.47kergothchouimat: :)
18:51.04filehi everyone
18:51.07chouimatkergoth: no use a windows box and use sambe :)
18:51.17kergoththats still usb networking
18:51.19kergothi dont have an AP at my house
18:51.31kergothbut even if i did, these are 24 meg images

18:54.19kergothI should go over to my parents house and play frisbee with my little brother or something
18:54.26kergothbetter than sitting on my ass here
18:54.40kergothgoddamnit
18:54.48kergothyou still cant set init=/bin/sh when sh is a busybox link
18:54.58kergothcause the kernel just has to set argv[0] to 'init'
18:55.05kergothand of course i didnt enable busybox init..
18:55.08chouimatkergoth: I'm waiting for a phone call from my mother but since I don't have a work schedule here
18:55.22TomW_goneGPSFan: there is a "pilot tone" that the DOCSIS modems look for, then when they find it, they use that as a reference "tone" of some kind to adjust the XMIT & RECV level of the RF.
18:55.50kergothAny progress been made on the dct5000s yet? tim been around?
18:57.19GPSFanTomW_gone: hmmm that's interesting, when you get yours you can hook it up to your cable and see what happens.
18:58.35CosmicPenguinsorphin: good news bad news time
18:58.44CosmicPenguinGood news is that the DVDs work - bad news is that they look like crap

19:02.43mallumkergoth: hey there
19:02.55mallumkergoth: did you get your libc build playing nicely ?
19:04.48TomWGPSFan: yeah, I am thinking of that..  When I purchased my cable modem from the ISP, they wanted the MAC address and the serial number of the unit.  The MAC I can understand, for the snmp negotiation, but was the serial number only for their records (they sold it to me, not some other vendor), or, is it part of the ID process when the modem contacts the tftp server?
19:05.28kergothmallum: yes
19:05.38kergothmallum: and promptly ran into your tinylogin segfault bug :)
19:05.44kergothhttp://openzaurus.org/official/toolchain/ has the new toolchain
19:05.59kergothglibc 2.3.1, gcc3.2.3ds4(debian unstable package pool)
19:06.36GPSFanTomW: thanks, wish I had cable to play around with.
19:07.06mallumkergoth: ah cool, I'll update mine
19:07.18TomWGPSFan: when the weather changes radically, I occasionally have to "retrain" my modem: hold RESET and power cycle it.  It then goes through a process of listening to the pilot tone / freq to get it's RF adjusted.  The modem will function within +/- 2 or 3 db signal strength .
19:07.37mallumkergoth: I have a 2.3.1 image set with gdb to test the tinylogin seg
19:07.46kergothah
19:08.25kergothwas about to do one myself when i ran into the 'init=/bin/sh' doesnt work with busybox sh bug
19:08.30TomWGPSFan: that RF value I do not know (the minimum signal strength), they don't like to talk about the modems, but I have picked up some trivia like that over the years.
19:08.41kergoth~lart the kernel for setting argv[0] to init regardless of init= value

19:10.26mallumwierd xchat just crashed
19:10.35TomWGPSFan: ... not that I would want to watch it without subscribing or anything like that, mind you...  :D
19:10.42mallumkergoth: its wierd that busybox works for familiar with 2.3.1
19:11.09chouimatTomW: the cable modem are using the mac adresse not the serial number
19:11.24kergothmallum: with init=/bin/sh?
19:11.29TomWchouimat: yeah, for the snmp.  
19:11.32kergothmallum: then they either patched busybox or patched the kernel
19:11.49kergothmallum: i suspect the former, given it was sandman who packaged busybox, and i discussed this with him in the past
19:12.27TomWGPSFan: chouimat: I know where I can borrow a spectrum analyzer....
19:12.49chouimatTomW: I worked for a cable co and I build their cable modem network ...
19:12.54mallumkergoth: hmm, I wonder where the patches are ?
19:12.58sorphinCosmicPenguin: what's your source? vhs? hi8?
19:13.06TomWchouimat: ooh! goodie!
19:13.16CosmicPenguinsorphin: the video is dv
19:13.24CosmicPenguinsorphin: but most of it is pictures
19:13.28chouimatTomW: I need to check if I still ave the PDFs :)
19:13.31sorphinheh
19:13.39kergothmallum: well, he has busybox cvs access.. so i dont see why he wouldnt have pushed the changes
19:13.39CosmicPenguinsorphin: thats why I think I might want to go non interlaced, and deal with the poor video
19:14.26GPSFanTomW: don't need to borrow one, I have an hp8552/8553/8554/8555/141T
19:14.27chouimatTomW: cable network -> computer network, not so big diff
19:14.39TomWGPSFan: nice toy.
19:15.01GPSFanswap meet and years of scrounging.
19:15.39TomWchouimat: yeah, I suspect that it is only a change in the physical network layer (RF) and peculiarities to the RF where it needs to level adjust it's AGC.

19:17.57GPSFanTomW: did your new cablemodem have a MAC address printed on a sticker? the DCT5000 doesn't, and there doesn't seem to be an eeprom inside to hold it.
19:18.26chouimatTomW: yup ... maybe you cable co don't do regular maintenance of the network ... like mine the technicinans are on strike for about 10 months ... so now the quality of the picture change from channel to channel, my ati tv wonder RF is dying ...
19:18.27TomWGPSFan: yes.  
19:19.17TomWchouimat: we have a consortium that does the Cable Modem stuff, PenTeleData, LLC.

19:21.09sorphinTomW: i know
19:21.16chouimatTomW: where?
19:21.17sorphini know how cablemodem configuation works
19:21.24sorphina friend of mine ([mbm]) did it once before
19:21.28TomWchouimat: http://www.netwide.net/users/CableGuy/HowtoUncapDocsisCompliantCableModems.htm
19:21.33sorphinand got caught :P
19:21.42CosmicPenguinSelection Sunday baby!
19:21.45sorphincuz his modem wasn't tftp'ing a config from the headend anymore
19:21.49sorphinand they noticed
19:22.06sorphinthe docsis config tells the modem what speed it should have
19:22.11sorphinthat's it
19:22.21sorphinas far as speed control i mean
19:22.53sorphinthe tftp'd config tells the modem what it needs to know/do, so simple to hijack
19:23.20TomWI just realized something, they didn't have me sign the Residential Service Contract, the one with two pages of fine print telling me that I cannot have a server, cannot do this, cannot do that...
19:24.01sorphinnod
19:24.07TomWI had a commercial account with PTD and BRC must have forgotten about that when I converted the account to a residential.
19:25.24TomWsorphin: we had no limitations on what we could do in the "early days", but as the system grew & grew, they got greedy and started charging for stuff that had been free.
19:25.41sorphinnod
19:25.41TomWsorphin: static IPs, use of a server, speed limits...
19:25.43CosmicPenguinsorphin: are you allowed to have servers, or can you make sure they don't check you?  :)
19:25.53sorphinCosmicPenguin: i'm allowed to
19:26.26sorphinheh, now here's the typical kinda /. story i could do without:
19:26.28sorphinFarscape Fans Reinventing Television
19:26.37TomWCosmicPenguin: I can put a server together, as long as it is above port 1023, they block the incoming SYN request below 1024.  Except for port 22.
19:27.48prpplagueCosmicPenguin: hey the index block in the config file, does it support more that 2 columns?
19:27.51TomWthey cannot block above 1023 and not hear a howl of protest from their users.
19:27.53sorphinoh, and i can't forget "children of dune" on /. too, that scifi advertises during their 10 min block of commercials, followed by 5 mins of programming

20:21.44kergothmallum: i doubt it
20:21.50scanlinesorphin: eh.. pgserver works fine, though it probably still has Zaurus-related problems that I haven't touched
20:21.59sorphinscanline: this wasn't for Z
20:22.01sorphinthis was for tux
20:22.05scanlineah
20:22.12scanlinewell I haven't touched the tux stuff in even longer
20:22.34scanlinefixing tux and zaurus is on the list of stuff to do before 1.0
20:22.40sorphinnod
20:22.43mallumkergoth: It works wierdly with X too, it seems not to 'flush' away the old contents of the framebuffer which is wierd
20:22.49kergothhm
20:22.59mallumkergoth: I made some patches to ts_calibrate, Im yet to try ..
20:25.22CosmicPenguinscanline: Hope you have something else to do - thats running of a 200Mhz machine at the slow end of a DSL line
20:25.33scanlinehehe
20:25.37scanlineit's gettin there...
20:25.54scanlinewhy such a slow server?
20:26.04sorphinok you other Z owners.. does *anyone* bother w/ screen protectors?
20:26.08scanlinethere's always sourceforge
20:26.38CosmicPenguinscanline: yeah, right...  
20:27.18sorphinscanline: you mean suckforge?
20:27.19scanlineI could maybe run a server on navi.picogui.org for ya ;)
20:27.31scanlinesorphin: yeah.. but when it's not down, it's usually faster than DSL
20:27.37scanlinesometimes
20:27.40sorphinscanline: which isn't often
20:27.45sorphinwhich is why they have mirrors now ;p
20:27.51scanlineyeah

20:28.18CosmicPenguinprpplague: yo?
20:28.22prpplagueCosmicPenguin: i didn't get an answer to my last question
20:28.30CosmicPenguinthe answer is yes
20:28.32prpplagueCosmicPenguin: can we do something like integer(min,max,default) ?
20:28.38prpplagueCosmicPenguin: for that one?
20:28.44CosmicPenguinoh - ummmm...  I forget
20:29.09sorphin"the answer is yes" :P
20:29.31CosmicPenguinprpplague: actually, its default, min, max, step, bigstep
20:29.39mallumkergoth: do you have a patch for the kernel to work with init=/bin/sh ?
20:29.52kergothmallum: yeah, need it?
20:29.58prpplagueCosmicPenguin: ahh, i didn't see an example so i didn't know
20:30.06mallumkergoth: yeah wouldn't hurt. bash dont seem to want to build
20:30.09kergothk
20:30.09prpplagueCosmicPenguin: one last thing
20:30.12CosmicPenguinyo
20:30.40mallumkergoth: I should port the crystal icons to matchbox/gpe
20:30.41prpplagueCosmicPenguin: when starting the app, is there an argument for telling it which .list file to use?
20:30.57CosmicPenguinoutlook unsure - ask again later... :)
20:31.06prpplagueCosmicPenguin: lol
20:31.13mallumkergoth: but first build a matchbox package for OZ :-)
20:31.19CosmicPenguinprpplague: no, but there should be...
20:31.25CosmicPenguinprpplague: stick it on the bug list, will ya?
20:31.29prpplagueCosmicPenguin: ok, yep
20:31.45kergothmallum: good plan
20:32.32CosmicPenguinprpplague: actually, I envision a config file - apparently we will need to support multiple forms at the same time
20:33.57kergothmallum: you got mail.
20:34.20mallumkergoth: thx, brb ... dinner
20:35.00kergothk
20:35.33sorphinkergoth: yo
20:36.26prpplagueCosmicPenguin: ya but it would just be as easy to have an icon for survey form1
20:36.33prpplagueCosmicPenguin: and survey form2
20:36.40kergothsorphin: yea?
20:36.48CosmicPenguinprpplague: yeah, but that means we need to make a canvas widget
20:36.57sorphinkergoth: don't shoot me, ok?
20:37.08sorphinkergoth: highly thinking i'll take the rc3 plunge
20:37.36sorphinhas no CF or mmc
20:37.48kergothCant do it.
20:37.54sorphinhrm
20:37.59sorphinbah
20:38.00kergothUnless you want to write an app to mmap /dev/mem and write the data to flash directly
20:38.09kergoth:)
20:38.13kergothbecause teh sharp mtd driver is read only.
20:38.15kergoth(mtdrom)
20:38.22kergothcant use the mtd layer to write to it

20:38.48kergothprobably the method i just named
20:38.57chouimat|gonekergoth: will go take a walk to a used book store :)
20:39.54sorphinkergoth: all i know is it reboots the Z and flashes
20:40.14kergothsorphin: probably drops a startup script into place which mmaps /dev/mem and writes
20:40.28sorphinthat's how i mess w/ the tivo's prom ;p
20:40.39kergothI'm sure linux can handle having its rootfs and kernel written out from under it
20:41.10kergothI need a tivo
20:41.16sorphinkergoth: i have too many
20:41.18sorphinwant one? :P

21:15.56chouimat|gonefile: yup ... and very irratable too ...
21:16.00mallumkergoth: from stepping through, looks like line 249 is the problem
21:16.42kergothmallum: right
21:16.47mallumkergoth: on line /dev/fb0autodetect
21:16.56kergothmallum: getline is supposed to allocate mem for the line buffer if line was NULL
21:17.06kergothmallum: but apparently getline returns success, and line is still NULL
21:17.16kergothmallum: hence the explosion when it attempts to free
21:17.19kergoththats my theory anyway, testing now
21:17.44filechouimat|gone: aren't you supposed to be gone?
21:17.51mallumkergoth: maybe just a if (line) free(line) for now ?
21:18.17kergothmallum: well, if line is NULL, obviously its not going to be able to parse the line and create the device.. something weird is going on
21:18.26chouimat|gonefile: I'm on the phone :( and I think I got an idea on how circuvent sorphin ignore :)
21:20.23mallumkergoth: maybe a better fix is to allocate *line outselves ?
21:20.49kergothmallum: probably, then we dont rely on getline()'s sanity
21:20.55kergothmallum: besides, its inefficient
21:21.03kergothmallum: malloc, free, malloc, free, rinse, repeat
21:21.05kergothheh
21:21.27filechouimat|gone: hehe
21:23.16sorphinkergoth: where's oz hosted? (asking so i know whether i should definately use a mirror or not)
21:23.24kergothSF
21:23.26kergoth'..
21:23.27kergothso yes
21:23.33kergothif they've been updated anyway
21:23.34sorphinickypoo
21:24.20mallumfile: cheap ?
21:24.22kergothk
21:24.34filemallum: $2.95/mth USD is my cheapest
21:25.13fileor if you pay $7.95 it's 750MB storage, 15GB bandwidth, static IP and all kinds of junk...
21:25.38file$2.95 gets you 100mb storage and 5GB of bandwidth
21:25.46kergothhrm
21:25.49mallumkergoth: changing line 235 to  line = alloca(256); and removing the free(line) and line = NULL below seems to fix it
21:26.09fileoops - 20GB bandwidth for $7.95
21:26.35mallumfile: thats pretty damn good.
21:26.47filemallum: yeah... I'm not marking it up or anything for people I know
21:26.57filemallum: that's the base price :)
21:27.24kergothmallum: getline expects a malloc() allocated buffer
21:27.34kergothmallum: if 256 isnt large enough, it'll try a realloc() on it, and promptly blow up :)
21:27.44mallumfile: can you take cc payments ?
21:27.48kergothso i'll just malloc it and free prior to function return
21:27.50filemallum: via Paypal...
21:28.15mallumkergoth: ah cool, Im getting too light handed lately with alloca :-)
