00:45.05chouimaticefox: where?
00:45.25chouimatTimRiker: any job for a frenchy?
00:45.29icefoxI have a few posibilities, but they are all "soon". :)
00:45.44chouimaticefox: I moved out of Quebec City
00:45.50TimRikerchouimat: these are all temp positions so we are not likely to move folks.
00:46.14chouimatTimRiker: ok :(

02:21.03TimRikerno telecommute openings at present. just dallas contract tester positions
02:21.21treke|whereverhow do you test a contract?
02:21.27treke|wherevershow up and do no work?
02:27.53ljp_laptopif I ever find a telecommute job, I am moving to Anguilla.
02:28.13treke|wherevercant you telecommute for some of this trolltech shit?
02:28.25ljp_laptopget a beach house, set up wifi and a gazebo....
02:28.27treke|whereverat least you can do something other than sit on your ass and wait for the australians
02:29.01ljp_laptopdunno. I suppose I could, really. but TT doesn't do that.
02:29.34ljp_laptopI am. I am trying to add qtopia to buildroot, so I can do a c700 image for them
02:29.58ljp_laptopI just want to get it working on 5000d before I puch changes
02:30.02ljp_laptoppush
02:31.22ljp_laptopcant get the ts to work
02:33.21icefoxTelecommuting works, but it only works for 4 out of 5 days of the week at the most
02:33.24icefoxyou have to have presense
02:33.38icefoxa place where people can come and bug you
02:33.43icefoxdrag you to meetings etc
02:34.20icefoxalso you then get to know others there and can bug them and get to know more then just what is said on the mailinglist, but the water cooler rumor of new stuff and when stuff is imploding
02:35.33ljp_laptopdepends on the job also. mine will involve communications between everyone, so being there with the developers I will be able to get things to them quicker
02:37.05icefoxFor me I choose going to work 99 times out of 100 simply because it gets me in the "work" mood.  There isn't the fridge, phone, tv, mailman, tivo, wife calling from the other room :)
02:37.24icefoxand my work computer only has "work", it doesn't have all my home fun stuff too
02:39.00ljp_laptopwhere are you working now?
02:39.44icefoxI currently am not :)  (unless you count hacking on kde and collecting transformers)
02:39.56icefoxpersuing jobs
02:40.07ljp_laptopahhh
02:40.13ljp_laptopTI is hiring :)
02:40.20icefoxyah, in september
02:40.21icefox...
02:40.35icefoxand if I still don't have a job then
02:40.41icefoxit sounds cool
02:40.51icefoxbut being out of work for 6 months isn't very cool
02:40.59ljp_laptopI have been waiting now 8 weeks to get to my job
02:42.42icefoxI have come to expect that it takes 1-2 months to find the job and another 1-2 months to actually get it (interviews, more interviews, contract reviews, etc infinitam)
02:43.51ljp_laptopheh, try an overseas job. you have an added immigration issue
02:46.16icefoxanother 3 months?
02:46.30icefoxljp_laptop: where are you now?  Where are you going to?
02:47.19ljp_laptopcolorado. going to Brisbane, Australia to work for trolltech
02:47.41icefoxon qtopia?
02:47.42icefoxhmm
02:48.00ljp_laptopyes
02:48.12icefoxHopefully you can help them get to qt3 faster :)

08:36.35cmartinhi mickeyl
08:37.49cmartinjust building a new image from HEAD - when i go to the Communications next week, then I want to have wellenreiter ;)
08:39.23cmartinmickeyl: will the PIM apps from BRANCH run on HEAD? - would be nice to have those PIM fixes on the pad
08:41.32mickeylcmartin: it all goes down to if the libopie from BRANCH is BC with the libopie from HEAD. If it is not, you will notice and I fill fix HEAD accordingly, ok? ;)
08:47.51cmartink
08:48.34cmartinare the fixes in BRANCH very noticable or can they only be seen at second sight?
08:49.49cmartini want to install as much software as i can get on the device, so that those guys at skeye can see as much as possible - maybe they get thursty for more ;)
08:51.09cmartinBTW: check out the KFZ-Halterung for the skeye.pad. it has two serial ports. this would be a perfect wardriving combination - two cards and a GPS on serial - WOW
08:51.53cmartini'm getting pretty anxious to get my hands on this device
08:52.50mickeylcmartin: the fixes in BRANCH are mainly to the PIM applications - very much bugfixes. But for demo'ing HEAD will be enough...
08:53.06mickeylwhich link to see the KFZ-Halterung?
08:53.46cmartingo to the website www.skeye.de and click on the link for the skeye.pad SL and then "Zubehör"
08:54.44cmartinforget it - there's no Beschreibung there - only a picture
08:55.15cmartini either read that in the forums or on the handbook i downloaded

08:58.17cmartinmickeyl: no it's in the Produktinformation PDF - it says "zwei serielle Schnittstellen für den Anschluss von Druckern, GPS-Empfängern usw."
08:59.49mickeylcmartin: that really sounds like _the_ device for wardriving or whatever. if they would have a reasonable price, this could be a killer product. but as it stands, imho it will share the fate of the SIMpad sooner or later.
09:00.36mickeylaargh... some people...
09:00.48mickeylI am Using PXA255 for an embedded application.so I kindly request you to provide this information as early as possible.
09:00.59mickeylnothing more nothing less...
09:01.06cmartinyes, but we shouldn't say that too loud - maybe they don't like us anymore then ;)
09:01.52mickeyl"as early as possible" - this kind of thinking all participants of a mailing list are hired support slaves kills me... grrr
09:01.52cmartinmickeyl: ?
09:01.56mickeylcmartin: true
09:02.16mickeylcmartin: (ah that just came in through arm linux kernel mailing list)
09:04.45cmartinmickeyl: do you know if that timezones split is still causing problems - if so then i'll just put in the single ipk right away
09:06.54mickeylcmartin: no idea - I didn't build HEAD for quite a while...

09:51.58mickeylah nice!
09:53.31cmartinmickeyl: of sorry, wrong - the packages init script seems to write a lot to flash - it runs out of memory and terminates
09:54.26mickeylhmm... CL4 ?
09:54.39cmartinno SL4
09:54.51mickeylhmm... how big was that image?
09:55.19cmartinimage was 64/0 and 19 MB in size - it terminated at package 90 (mailit)
09:55.57cmartini removed mailit and the zimage i forgot to remove from /boot - now it is 18MB
09:56.16cmartintry that
09:58.43cmartini have to hurry - we're having a Kundenevent (starts at 12:30) at work and i want to be wireless ;)

10:00.25cmartinnow it's writing to flash - this is really much faster over the net than serial ;)
10:01.40mickeylmmmh...
10:02.16mickeylbut then again, i boot the simpad mostly over usb ;)
10:02.29mickeylI'm also on bootloader 2.4 yet
10:02.34mickeylbeen waiting for redboot
10:02.59cmartindownload over net takes ~ 1 minute - serial ~ 25 minutes (write to flash is the same)
10:04.11cmartin2.4! - then you have never flashed a jffs2 image?
10:04.27cmartinalways just updating?
10:04.44mickeylcmartin: that is true. not over the "regular" way
10:05.05mickeyli boot via usb and then i flash via command line
10:05.12mickeyleraseall and then dd
10:05.14mickeyl:)
10:05.55cmartinthe real hardcore method
10:06.50mickeylyeah

10:09.10*** join/#openembedded kurre (~kurre@ncircle.nullnet.fi)
10:11.32cmartinnope
10:11.53cmartini'll make a smaller image and just install the ipks seperately
10:12.24mickeylmost probably a bootloader problem
10:12.42cmartinyep
10:12.59cmartinmemory is enough there i would think
10:13.07mickeylyes
10:14.15cmartinnew image = 13.2 MB with wellenreiter and a couple of others for starters
10:14.52cmartinbefore you ask - yes libopie2 and libpcap are there ;-)
10:15.04mickeylgood ;)
10:15.19cmartinbut i think ipkg would terminated if they weren't though
10:15.26mickeylyes it would
10:15.44mickeylas soon as binutils becomes compilable again, i will take a new shot @ compiling a uclibc-based image
10:16.08cmartinhow much space do we win with that?
10:16.12mickeylno idea
10:16.21mickeylbut i hope it to be around 2M
10:16.37cmartinthis would be great
10:18.58cmartinbooting new image now
10:19.28cmartin121 packages as opposed to 141 before to be reconfigured
10:20.39mickeylfor debugging purposes it would be good if one could login into the pad already in the configuration phase
10:20.58cmartinyes it would

15:48.49Friday sucks, because it should be the weekend, but you're stuck working anyway.

16:44.34bipolarkergoth: what would cause a package to not get passed the path to the toolchain, etc? libgcc1 won't build unless I put the bin dir in my path.
16:44.48bipolarmake[1]: arm-linux-gcc: Command not found
16:45.40kergoththe include of Vars.make is probably happening after it does expansion on that target
16:46.35bipolarkergoth: expansion? I'm not exactly sure what that means, but the Vars.make include is right after the package discription in the makefile.
16:47.14kergothjust move the PATH set outside of the if block based on $(Name) in Vars.make

18:20.57pb_heh
18:20.59ljp_laptopdoes tslib work with 5000d as well?

18:21.14kergothset the ts device env var to COLLIE
18:21.26ljp_laptophmm
18:21.52kergothit should grab the proper tslib sh script and stuff it into /etc/profile.d/ in the tslib ipk creation
18:21.55kergothso it should 'just work'
18:22.01trekeljp_laptop: Well. Figure out when hell will freeze over, then add a week
18:22.58ljp_laptopwell, I think hell must be freezing, then
18:23.18Neo|Workhrm
18:23.32Neo|Workgiven byte[] is there a finished way in JAva to get a hex encoded string from that?
18:24.10ljp_laptopkergoth: where do I set that? or is it set by the build?
18:24.55ljp_laptopnm, I see
18:25.04kergothljp_laptop: the build puts the tslib script into place so that it gets sourced by a login shell and the vars get set
18:25.07kergothk
18:25.20TwiunNeo|Work: yup
18:25.58TwiunNeo|Work: although you may need to it byte by byte - are you doing this to output something?
18:26.33Neo|WorkI want a MD5 digest in hexadecimal format
18:26.35Neo|Worksimply
18:27.48Neo|Workand by the way, doing it byte per byte is not really a "finished way" but rather a low level hack
18:28.07Neo|Workstupid java
18:28.17TwiunI wasn't suggesting otherwise ;) although I think there's a java.security class for md5 hashes
18:28.18Twiunone sec
18:28.57ljp_laptophmm, konq e compile doesnt like me. oh well.
18:29.13Neo|Workwell, I have the hash but a digest is typically binary
18:30.43Twiunthe problem really is that you can't easily swap from a byte[] representation to another
18:31.18Neo|Workuh
18:31.24Neo|Workbyte == 0-255 no?
18:31.33Neo|WorkI mean, like always
18:32.17Twiunbyte[] not byte
18:32.50Twiunconverting an array of bytes into something else invariably needs iterating through each member
18:32.53Twiununlike C/C++
18:33.47Neo|Workbyte[] is just an array of byte...
18:34.06Neo|Workand of course, to convert to hex SOMETHING has to iterate through it, just like in C/C++
18:34.15Neo|Workhowever I wondered if that SOMETHING already existed
18:34.30Twiunyou were looking for something that operated on the whole array - I couldn't find something in the existing apis
18:34.38Neo|Worki.e String hex = MagicClass.ByteArrayToHexString(bytearr);
18:34.47Neo|Worknothing more than that
18:34.55Neo|Workbasic functionality if you work with message digest
18:34.56Neo|Works
18:35.15Twiunonly if you need the digest output somewhere for a human to read, surely?
18:35.38Neo|Workor need to transport it with higher safety or..
18:35.44Neo|Workit's a very basic function to have, really
18:36.10Neo|Workanyhow, I am skipping it using urlencoding instead
18:36.29Twiunlol
18:36.51Neo|Workit's used in a cookie value
18:37.01Neo|WorkURL encoding is pretty much it except with extra % in there
18:38.01Neo|Worksometimes the lack of basic functionality in Java still baffles me
18:38.16Neo|Workthe fact that there's no (standard) sprintf type functionality is mindboggling
18:38.26Neo|Workor sscanf for that matter
18:38.34Twiuntrue - the TextFormat stuff is too clunky
18:39.21Neo|Workto say the least
18:39.32Neo|Worka lot of stuff in Java, even when it's actually there, is clunky
18:39.33Twiunit gets worse with ChoiceFormat, much worse
18:40.02TwiunI'm still not completely won over by the "design-by-committee" approach
18:40.48TwiunI'm getting into C++ anyway - going to de-emphasise java
18:41.38ljp_laptopwhat!?!

18:59.52Neo|Workhow was it encoded?
19:00.13kergothhe didnt know, i havent bothered to look. he just has a table of values to do the translation
19:00.22kergothdidnt actually discover any algorithm
19:00.40Neo|Workso it's a fixed this char -> this char type decoding?
19:01.09Twiunthat's pretty weak security

20:44.05kergothinitial bytes of the file
20:44.46TheMasterMind1i'm just guessing, but maybe its 3 4 2 4 3 6 5 9 5 2 3 5 2
20:45.10pb_kergoth: the thing that identifies it as a zImage is 0x16f2818 at offset 0x24.
20:45.49pb_they generally start with eight nops (0xe1a00000) and then a branch (0xea000002)
20:46.11TheMasterMind1wow
20:46.35pb_then the word at 0x28 is the address it wants to be loaded at (which I think is always zero nowadays) and the word at 0x2c is the length.
20:47.00pb_you get bonus points for guessing where 0x16f2818 comes from.
20:48.26pb_TheMasterMind1: so your guess was close
20:48.44TheMasterMind1wow, it was?

22:36.42kergothmy mtd1 had a ton of shit overwritten, if i'm not careful i'll have a bricked c750 on my hands here
22:37.00mickeyldamn... caution
22:37.24mickeylhow's c750 progressing? i just ordered one which will be there next week
22:40.01Neo|Workkergoth: uh oh. :P
22:40.17Twiunre
22:41.20mickeylkergoth: could you please reserve update the OZ news page before you leave for weekend? I'm getting pestered with questions re. future oz releases or if the project is dead or what etc... a small news entry stating "it's in progress - have patience" would be nice. especially for the 5600 and c7x0 users which are really longing to get away from Sharp OS ;))
22:43.35kergothyeah, i'm sure the sharp press release re: european support makes people want an upgrade path, as well
22:43.46mickeylexactly. t'would be important
22:44.05mickeylfor them to get an official statement from you as the project leader
22:46.55Twiun..." When it's ready dammit!"
22:47.15TwiunI fondly remember the queries leading to the 3.2 release
22:47.20kergothhehe
22:47.52mickeylmmh... but frankly, during the 3.1 series there was a lot more "visible" activity in the project
22:47.58Twiunyou should start keeping a blog, kergoth
22:48.16kergothyep, we're in a definate dead zone right now wrt OZ, due to my focus on the new build infrastructure and lacking internet at home
22:48.29kergoththese tools can kiss my ass
22:48.35kergothstupid fucking .. grr
22:48.42Twiunit's also the summer and a lot of developers are on holiday too
22:48.51Twiunseeing as most of them are in Uni
22:49.04kergothyeah
22:50.45TwiunI don't suppose there's any interest in TI to take credit for supporting the continuing development of the oz/oe stuff?
22:51.58kergothbrb
22:53.07Twiunmickeyl: You could also get some info about opensimpad up on the oz news site
22:53.17Twiunmickeyl: show that the community is also still alive
22:54.10mickeylTwiun: yeah, right. that sounds good. however the 5600 and c7x0 users have been waiting really long now...
22:54.20mickeyland considered that i'm soon among them ;))
22:55.42Twiunmickeyl: ok then, just get a one-liner at the bottom of kergoth's quick post ;)
22:55.56mickeyloh did he already post something?
22:56.09mickeylTwiun: what's the status of that libfb stuff btw.?
22:57.19Twiunmickeyl: stagnant at the moment
22:57.41mickeylstill busy with that server?
22:57.47Neo|Workaha
22:57.51Twiunmickeyl: yup
22:57.53Neo|Work<KergothWillMurderCustomers> cube borgs
22:57.53Neo|Work<KergothWillMurderCustomers> i hate cubicles
22:57.54Neo|Work:-)
22:58.09kergothhah
22:58.11kergothwhen's that from?
22:58.13Twiunmickeyl: alsp, Daniele isn't happy about the performance hit the rotation code added to libFB so that probably won't get added any time soon
22:58.27Twiunmickeyl: and the other patches aren't really quality code ;)
22:58.42Twiunmickeyl: but yeah, the server is still occupying my attention
22:59.00Neo|Workkergoth: Tim's Henry's irc log
22:59.02mickeylTwiun: i see. did you ever take a look into directFB? this is a helluva library... fast and capable... and did i say alphablending? :D
22:59.06Neo|Workhttp://henrylyon.rikers.org/henryirc.txt
22:59.16Neo|Workso my kids were 10 months old at the time - quite a while ago
22:59.33Twiunmickeyl: I've spent 3 days evaluating different website content management tools/framework lately and I'm getting to the stage that I think I'm going to have to roll my own
23:00.03mickeylTwiun: hmm... yeah i know this situation... nothing really fits
23:00.04Twiunmickeyl: yeah, I had a quick look at directFB - it seemed big last I checked, but considering how much we were adding to libFB, I think I'll revesit it
23:00.31Twiunmickeyl: it's amazing that I can't find a simple tool for creating corpporate public sites
23:00.47Twiunmickeyl: it's not as if it's all that complicated
23:01.15Twiunmickeyl: but I'd rather spend time tweaking a solution than writing one from scratch
23:01.30Twiunmickeyl: and even better if I can give it to my web designer without tweaking
23:01.32mickeylTwiun: yes.... if the times are really comparable
23:01.50Twiunmickeyl: true, it's a time/effort compromise
23:04.12kergothargh.
