| 00:00.30 | MasterRa | the screen backlight |
| 00:00.46 | litage | really? that's staying on for you? hrmm odd.. |
| 00:01.12 | MasterRa | yeah.. i press and hold the reset, then press the power (the one at the top of the unit), then release the power, then release the rest, right? |
| 00:02.33 | litage | MasterRa: yes, but you only push the power button (next to the speaker) when you can see the bootloader image |
| 00:03.25 | MasterRa | litage: yep, that's what i'm doing.. then it fades out, but the light stays on. |
| 00:04.04 | litage | MasterRa: 'fraid i don't know what else to suggest. that works for me |

| 00:05.06 | litage | MasterRa: actually, what about holding the up key then pushing reset? i can't remember what that does, but it's specific to booting/the bootloader |
| 00:05.54 | MasterRa | litage: let me try |
| 00:06.26 | MasterRa | hmm, no, doesn't seem to do anything.. |
| 00:07.15 | litage | MasterRa: i'm all out of ideas then. sorry |
| 00:07.39 | MasterRa | litage: alright. thanks.. maybe someone else will wander by that has some idea.. in the mean time, i guess it'll go off when the battery dies.. :-/ |
| 00:08.35 | litage | MasterRa: well, if it doesn't turn off when the battery dies, you know you've got an extra special ipaq ;) |
| 00:08.53 | MasterRa | litage: heh, yeah, i'll let you know if it's still on a month from now ;) |
| 00:09.58 | litage | MasterRa: do you know how to run a plugin in opie? |
| 00:11.36 | MasterRa | litage: nope.. just started fiddling with opie today.. and everything was going good.. but i did some ipkg upgrades and installed some stuff, then left home for the night.. but never actually rebooted the machine.. then i went to reboot it a few minutes ago, and now it freezes when it's booting :-/ |
| 00:12.34 | litage | MasterRa: yeah, same thing happened to me. i installed Familiar and opie yesterday afternoon. within 24 hours, Familiar died twice |
| 00:13.02 | litage | mostly due to ipks, i believe |
| 00:13.09 | MasterRa | litage: damn, that sucks.. yeah.. well.. actually.. hey i know what i'll do.. i got my cf sleeve and the card i used to install with.. i'll just reflash the base ipie install ;) |
| 00:13.23 | MasterRa | litage: yeah.. i didn't wanna have to reflash it though, cuz i manually upgraded ipkg.. |
| 00:13.54 | MasterRa | i couldn't get it to install a newer version than like 0.99.105 or something.. and it SIGSEGV'd everytime i tried to do something |
| 00:14.29 | MasterRa | not exactly the best arragement for a release.. but.. i manually unzipped 0.99.87 i think.. and it seemed to work fine.. installed a bunch of packages, some games.. everything looked great.. then.. well.. ;) |
| 00:15.09 | litage | if you grab one of pb's unstable images, it's 0.7.2 with some new stuff, plus a working ipkg: http://handhelds.org/~pb/unstable/?M=D bootopie-xxx.jffs2 |
| 00:15.39 | MasterRa | alright.. i'll give that a try |
| 00:15.50 | MasterRa | lucky me - i have a TC1000 with onboard cf reader ;) |
| 00:16.12 | litage | TC1000? |
| 00:16.14 | MasterRa | hmm, what was that link? |
| 00:16.24 | litage | http://handhelds.org/~pb/unstable/?M=D bootopie-xxx.jffs2 |
| 00:16.29 | MasterRa | litage: the compaq tc1000 tablet pc.. it's actually a peice of shit, but.. |
| 00:16.36 | litage | oh! hahah nie |
| 00:16.37 | MasterRa | litage: hmm, irssi is showing a space in that link :-/ |
| 00:16.37 | litage | nice |
| 00:16.44 | litage | yeah |
| 00:17.00 | litage | the first is the link, the 2nd is an unspecified filename |
| 00:17.01 | MasterRa | oh ok |
| 00:17.06 | MasterRa | alright ;) |
| 00:17.11 | MasterRa | i see now |
| 00:17.16 | litage | the newest is unstable14 |
| 00:17.19 | MasterRa | let me browse the files, see what there is.. then i'll give ti a shot |
| 00:17.23 | MasterRa | litage: alright, i'll try that one.. |
| 00:17.30 | litage | good luck =) |
| 00:17.46 | MasterRa | litage: and i need the 3600 image for the 3800? |
| 00:17.54 | litage | yep |
| 00:18.02 | MasterRa | alright, cool, just making sure ;) |
| 00:18.28 | litage | heh i know. can't be too cautious |
| 00:19.24 | MasterRa | lol |
| 00:19.25 | MasterRa | yeah |
| 00:19.33 | MasterRa | well i must say, Opie was running pretty good |
| 00:19.42 | MasterRa | i was quite impressed :) |
| 00:24.40 | MasterRa | litage: about to flash the image.. brb, gotta move my car.. |
| 00:28.21 | litage | MasterRa: have fun |
| 00:30.48 | MasterRa | litage: aha, it worked.. ok, i can turn it off and let the battery rest now ;).. though now i gotta check it out.. heh |

| 01:26.52 | xsdg | joshua_: not yet; sec |
| 01:31.56 | xsdg | joshua_: seems that the battery was drained (or close, at least) |
| 01:32.07 | xsdg | joshua_: which is weird, because when it locked, the frontlight was still on |
