14:47.30CosmicPenguineveryone here thinks that you have horrible luck and got a buggy dom
14:47.47file[laptop]probably.
14:47.53file[laptop]chouimat: haha

14:51.14file[laptop]silly buggy DOMs
14:51.34chouimat?
14:56.50file[laptop]if it turns out to be my kernel I'll be slightly irritated, just slightly
15:01.11CosmicPenguinchouimat is always so colorful
15:01.24file[laptop]CosmicPenguin: it's because he's french
15:02.32file[laptop]what? it's true
15:03.11chouimatCosmicPenguin: thanks ... I try to be use the f word less often
15:08.29CosmicPenguinfile[laptop]: bad news bro - your config and my kernel boot fine
15:08.56CosmicPenguinfile[laptop]: now, time to try your kernel
15:09.24file[laptop]so, toasted DOM most likely
15:09.52CosmicPenguinfile[laptop]: probalby
15:10.05file[laptop]just my luck

15:17.10CosmicPenguinfile[laptop]: ok, thats enough out ouf you - thats still a damn good board you've got there
15:17.20file[laptop]:)
15:17.59CosmicPenguinAnd I need you to focus so I can get a decent IP phone running on that thing
15:18.29file[laptop]focus will exist when it is up and running
15:19.08CosmicPenguinAgain, I submit to you that a 44 pin iDE->CF would be a good thing
15:19.15CosmicPenguinSpecially for rapid prototyping
15:19.22CosmicPenguinI'll send you one with a replacment DOM, hows that?
15:19.31file[laptop]and then I have to buy a compactflash card too, and a cf reader
15:20.02CosmicPenguinTrue - but those are investments that will be good for your programming career
15:20.09file[laptop]blah
15:20.20file[laptop]I'm an SD person :p
15:20.23CosmicPenguinAnd you have a laptop, right?  CF->PCMCIA adapters are like six bucks
15:26.06CosmicPenguinfile[laptop]: your kernel comes up fine too - except that its not reading the partition like I thought it would
15:26.19CosmicPenguinfile[laptop]: is your initrd doing wierd things in that regard?
15:26.29file[laptop]it's the debian installer initrd
15:27.08CosmicPenguinIts not doing a hdparm -d 1 is it?
15:27.23file[laptop]hdparm isn't even there
15:27.26file[laptop]I checked.
15:27.34CosmicPenguinthe errors happen after the initrd loads?
15:27.45file[laptop]let's take a walk through
15:27.59file[laptop]to make sure.
15:28.56CosmicPenguinfile[laptop]: how big a file can your e-mail handle?
15:29.15file[laptop]you can e-mail it to josh.colp@gmail.com ;)
15:37.07*** join/#elinux cdm (~cdm@17.255.212.165)
15:37.32CosmicPenguinfile[laptop]: ok - i'm going to e-mail you a kernel and a .cramfs suitiable for use as a an initrd
15:37.51file[laptop]k
15:40.39CosmicPenguinHopefully that doesn't freak out any e-mail systems
15:41.59file[laptop]hehe
15:43.06file[laptop]there it is
15:43.10file[laptop]downloading.
15:44.31file[laptop]need watch
15:45.37CosmicPenguinhopefully watch is big enough
15:45.42file[laptop]256MB
15:47.09CosmicPenguinyeah, that'll do
15:48.20file[laptop]what should my kernel commandline look like?
15:48.38file[laptop]cause right now I've got cramfs: wrong magic
15:48.43file[laptop]for an error
15:53.54CosmicPenguinhold on

16:25.48ShylockI'm cross compiling on debian using the SnapGear CD and their sh-linux-gcc and toolchain.
16:36.08prpplagueShylock: most of the folks here are arm
16:36.40CosmicPenguinbut I'm sure that andersee would love to hear about that
16:37.09cdmsounds like something missing from libgcc actually.
16:38.14prpplagueCosmicPenguin: ahh yea, i didn't see the uclibc part

16:52.41CosmicPenguinhow much did you pay in duties?
16:53.05file[laptop]$21.08 CAD I believe... so the person at Fedex told me
16:53.17file[laptop]which I don't know how it's so cheap
16:59.52Shylockprpplague: Yeah I would prefer an ARM, but the system I'm hacking is SH4 and it does /almost/ everything I need with the stock firmware.
17:00.11ShylockSo I'm just trying to jam one more program into it.
17:01.09ShylockI think it's not a SH specific error. I think I'm just screwing something up in the LDFLAGS for uClibc
17:04.46file[laptop]hahaha
17:04.49file[laptop]reimbursed? wow

17:33.59sjhillman, kids these days
17:34.19Crofton_I burned my last modem a couple of years ago
17:34.28file[laptop]Crofton_: you plug your phone line into the adapter and it sends incoming calls to your computer over your LAN, as well you can plug a phone into it to place calls through your computer
17:34.29sjhilloh oh, you mean VOIP...well...okay then
17:34.33Crofton_I used to have a 300 baud modem

17:40.29file[laptop]although I have to figure out some way to forward my office extension to two numbers now, and avoiding voicemail on them both
17:41.31CosmicPenguinif I had the wherewithall and hardware, I would definately consider Asterisk in my house
17:41.49file[laptop]haha my apartment is going to have a nifty asterisk setup
17:42.07CosmicPenguinThough I'm less then inclined to bail on POTS for the near future
17:44.32file[laptop]I'm still gonna have an analog line

20:13.11cbrakeCosmicPenguin: yeah, that's typical -- most organizations are very resistant to any type of change in my experience -- after awhile it is easier to just shut up which is not good.
20:14.07CosmicPenguinIts not in my nature to shutup about things that piss me off
20:14.12CosmicPenguinoften to my own personal ruin
20:17.27cbrakeCosmicPenguin: been there.  People seldom understand Logic -- they have to be sold -- and I'm not a very good salesman yet -- too many more interesting things to do.  I did read a book recently called "Solution Selling" which was pretty good.
