| 04:11:10 | Russ | http://russ.dhs.org/tuxscreen.html |
| 04:52:57 | dec | Suppose I update sboot 0.71 to a more recent version that supports booting from a CF, I should be able to boot to Linux? |
| 04:53:22 | dec | (with a CF of course) |
| 04:53:45 | Russ | I don't know if sboot will boot linux |
| 04:54:08 | dec | Probably not. |
| 04:54:41 | dec | You have a JTAG? |
| 04:54:53 | Russ | yah |
| 04:54:58 | dec | Well, I don't.. |
| 04:55:11 | Russ | you don't need it to put blob into the flash |
| 04:57:14 | dec | ok.. gotta run.. |
| 08:18:02 | Russ | hey Tangent, check out my keyboard: |

| 12:54:19 | mallum | hi |
| 12:54:32 | mallum | my tuxscreens are waiting for me at the postoffice depot |
| 13:17:52 | dec | mallum, how many did you order? |
| 13:23:20 | mallum | 2 |
| 13:23:40 | mallum | dec: you got any yet ? |
| 13:26:20 | bworth | mallum: hi, what's up? |
| 13:30:16 | mallum | hi bworth |
| 13:30:27 | mallum | my cable modems been down for 4 days now |
| 13:30:32 | mallum | driving me mad |
| 13:30:56 | mallum | my tuxscreens have arrived at the post office though, picking them up later |
| 13:31:21 | mallum | got a new laptop ( 2nd hand ) , but discovered the panel reolution will only go to 800x600 :( |
| 13:32:06 | mallum | bworth: and you .... |
| 13:34:42 | mallum | bworth: oh and I got a mail from compaq saying they'd fixed my ipaq - woohooo ! |
| 13:35:54 | bworth | not much, been busy with family lately. My 2 boys were in a youth production of The Wizard of Oz and that kept us busy running them around etc, but now that's over, I'm hoping to get time to get some things done |
| 13:36:13 | bworth | mallum: I'm ordering a tuxscreen next monday :) |
| 13:36:26 | mallum | cool |
| 13:36:32 | bworth | mallum: when did you send in your ipaq? |
| 13:36:59 | mallum | it went back to compaq, who sent it to the netherlands .... |
| 13:37:53 | bworth | mallum: don't you hate being without it? |
| 13:38:27 | mallum | My little sister used to watch wizard of oz (movie) all the time, till I showed her the bit where the munchkin hangs himself in the background |
| 13:38:47 | mallum | bworth: yes its missed :( |
| 13:41:54 | mallum | bworth: did you ever make any progess with the win usbnet stuff ? |
| 13:52:55 | bworth | mallum: unfortunately, no. it appears to be more complicated than I was hoping. I just haven't had the time to dig into it deeper, but maybe this week, now that things have slowed down a bit. |
| 13:57:13 | bworth | mallum: the problem will be getting access to the microsoft driver specs. I don't know if they are available for free, or only to registered developers (i.e. paying developers) |
| 14:02:26 | bworth | mallum: do you have any special plans for your tuxscreens? |
| 14:02:40 | nelson | bworth: why wait to order the tuxscreen? |
| 14:03:00 | bworth | nelson: payday |
| 14:03:58 | mallum | bworth: hmm, not yet ... just to play with really |
| 14:05:12 | mallum | nelson: do you have a tuxscreen ? |
| 14:06:01 | nelson | mallum: two. |
| 14:06:58 | bworth | mallum: i've seen my brothers, they are really cool - his wife actually uses it as a phone (using the included inferno software). In fact, my mom said to me "yeah, carl bought stacey this really neat phone, it tells you right on the screen who's calling, and everything". I doubt he bought it for his wife, but I guess that's no different the the digital camera i bought my wife for mother's day. |
| 14:08:52 | mallum | bworth: yeah I've told my gf that 1's for her as a phone - I dont think callerID works over here though |
| 14:09:01 | bworth | nelson: have you loaded linux on your tux's yet? |
| 14:09:32 | bworth | mallum: so maybe i had better get 2 then |
| 14:10:27 | bworth | mallum: did they use different standards for caller id over there? |
| 14:10:45 | mallum | bworth: yeah I had to buy gf a washing machine yesterday too, to counter the fact I bought another laptop |
| 14:11:26 | mallum | bworth: I dont think she minds me buying kit all the time, I think its just me referencing her as my mother who would moan at me - wierd |
| 14:14:16 | bworth | nelson: you're the same nelson the did all the packet driver stuff? cool!! |
| 14:15:46 | mallum | has been discovering recently how smart nelson is .... :) |
| 14:16:21 | bworth | nelson: i messed around with that stuff a few years back, trying to get the Arachne dos browser running under windows clients on our intranet. |
| 14:16:32 | mallum | Is there a tuxscreen mailing list as yet ? |
| 14:19:26 | nelson | bworth: no linux on my tux yet. First priority is atd(8) for ipaq Linux. |
| 14:21:16 | mallum | nelson: atd ? |
| 14:35:20 | mallum | nelson: ah , jobs |
| 14:54:08 | nelson | mallum: atd will provide for alarms, and cron. |
| 14:54:24 | nelson | bworth: yes, I'm the same nelson who did all the packet driver stuff. |
| 18:17:37 | Russ|werk | hey dec |
| 18:18:00 | Russ|werk | I'm going to start work on the dsp stuff soon |
| 18:18:33 | Russ|werk | the dsp runs its own firmware and accepts commands to do things, and sends back status, etc |
| 18:18:53 | Russ|werk | a bit like scancodes on a keyboard |
| 18:23:14 | nikos | is away: Errand |
| 18:25:22 | Russ|werk | I really need to find a 3V pcmcia net card though |
| 18:30:02 | dec | hey |
| 19:03:56 | nikos | is back |
| 19:54:19 | mallum | hi all |
| 19:54:23 | nikos | Hey mallum |
| 19:54:31 | mallum | I am now the owner of 2 tuxscreens :) |
| 19:54:34 | mallum | hi nikos |
| 19:54:40 | nikos | Cool |
| 19:54:51 | mallum | cable modems been down all weekend :( |
| 19:55:07 | mallum | compaq have apparently fixed my ipaq :))) |
| 19:55:10 | nikos | mallum: Same with me on @home. I've had only intermittent access. |
| 19:55:23 | mallum | ack. its a pain |
| 19:58:03 | Russ|werk | my access has been slow |
| 19:58:16 | Russ|werk | all the redcode II activity on the @home network |
| 19:58:40 | mallum | Russ|werk: do you you really think thats what it is ? |
| 19:59:01 | Russ|werk | yah, I watch my logs |
| 19:59:25 | Russ|werk | multiply that by the number of computers on the @home network, and its a lot of traffic |
| 20:00:36 | mallum | I think on my server the number of redcode requests had quadrupled over the weekend |
