14:52.24thraxisp'morning
14:52.38prpplaguethraxisp: i've been wanting to chat with you since i saw some of your patches for buildroot
14:52.49prpplaguethraxisp: what is it you normally do with buildroot?
14:53.30thraxispI was using it to build compilers. We have a SnapGear based build system for the kernel and applications.
14:54.18prpplaguethraxisp: ahh
14:54.41prpplaguethraxisp: so you do the hacking as a job
14:55.31thraxispprpplague: Yes. There seems to be some demand here for embedded and drivers.

15:03.56prpplagueCosmicPenguin: morning
15:04.03prpplaguethraxisp: nice looking designs
15:05.12prpplaguethraxisp: seems like i've looked at precidia.com before
15:06.45T0mWthraxisp: any of those products RS232 over ethernet + SSL ?
15:07.15pbrookI'm running linux 2.6.15 on an emulated Arm Integrator/CP board. Has anyone successfully used a PS/2 keyboard plugged into the Arm KMI interface under linux?
15:07.15thraxispYes.
15:07.22T0mWprpplague: morning Dave
15:07.43T0mWthraxisp: I have a customer who may be interested, very interested
15:07.49pbrookI'm getting "Unknown key pressed <blah>". It's possible I'be bothed the emulator, but the reported scancodes look right.
15:08.00thraxispT0mW: Sure. http://www.precidia.com/
15:08.26T0mWthraxisp: yeah, I took a quick look.  Nice cases btw
15:08.57thraxispMost of the products are Point of Sale terminal adapters, but we can do transparent connections as well.

15:14.16prpplaguehmm, i think i've found my next device to hack
15:14.18prpplaguehttp://www.arm.com/markets/emerging_applications/armpp/9931.html
15:23.47T0mWprpplague: does your son have one yet?
15:24.26prpplagueT0mW: nope
15:24.30T0mWLOL, I don't think he does
15:24.43prpplagueT0mW: gotta get one of the new pixters though
15:24.47T0mWhe would be spending entire too much time in the bathroom
15:24.56prpplagueT0mW: dying to find out if its based on a sharp arm chip
15:24.57T0mWnew? Pixters?
15:25.10prpplagueT0mW: yea, the next generation is out
15:25.33T0mWwonder if they are cheaper than the old units, they are fairly pricy
15:25.51T0mWbut cheaper than an IPod
15:26.07prpplagueT0mW: still based around $90.00 - http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0009SQEXU/sr=1-1/qid=1139325928/ref=pd_bbs_1/002-9096448-8491215?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance
15:26.56prpplagueT0mW: fisher price was suppose to have had a 10 year contract with sharp for all of their gamming toys
15:27.05prpplagueT0mW: starting with the pixter color
15:27.26prpplagueT0mW: i'm suspecting that the pixter MM is based on the LH79520
15:27.52prpplagueT0mW: as the original color using was based on the LH75410 which has some serious memory limitations
15:28.21T0mWooo
15:28.38T0mWthat would be cool to take a '520 and play with that!
15:28.40*** part/#elinux pbrook (n=paul@81-178-252-114.dsl.pipex.com)
15:29.13prpplagueT0mW: go to the store and get one!!!
15:29.32prpplagueT0mW: http://www.zombietime.com/mohammed_image_archive/CagleJihad.gif
15:30.06T0mWyeah, that is a sad situation over Mohammed
15:31.45T0mWseems odd that fisher price would be bringing the new pixter model out now instead of during the holiday season
15:34.00T0mWprpplague: krappy looking case on that pixter, not something I'd want to carry with me into a jobsite
15:34.17prpplagueT0mW: yea well fisher-price hasn't been that smart as of late, nor their parent company mattel
15:34.39prpplagueT0mW: seems their electronic division has little or no direction at all
15:35.02T0mWprpplague: naw, probably their Marketing department is out of control
15:35.33prpplagueT0mW: well their products are missing their mark alot these days
15:35.43CosmicPenguinmeh
15:36.03CosmicPenguinMattel is the sort of company that throws thousands of products out a year, and is happy when 4 or 5 get bit
15:36.05CosmicPenguinbig even
15:36.08CosmicPenguinIts like Samsung
15:36.33CosmicPenguinDid you know that Samsung releases a new cell phone model pratically weekly?
15:36.37prpplagueCosmicPenguin: yea that seems accurate

16:58.37chouimatT0mW: yes udev is crap, dbus  and hal too ...
16:59.28T0mWwhy isn't there an elegant way to create a needed device beyond editing rc.sysinit and putting mknod in there?
16:59.57T0mWat least with devfs devices would be carried through reboots
17:00.03chouimatT0mW: overdesign ;)
17:00.09T0mWyeh

17:02.27chouimatT0mW: why not  if it work and it simplier to use ... or you could also tar the /dev
17:02.47T0mWyeah, and explode it on boot
17:03.02T0mWexplode being the operative word here
17:03.08chouimatyup ...
