| 01:26:01 | Russ | hey andersee |
| 01:26:38 | andersee | hey |
| 01:26:42 | andersee | Hows it going? |
| 02:28:14 | Russ | who's here? |
| 02:28:26 | nelson | I am. |
| 02:28:38 | Russ | want a splash screen patch for latest CVS blob? |
| 02:29:20 | nelson | Gawrsh, I hate to refuse a gift, but I must admit that it doesn't excite me. |
| 02:29:52 | Russ | I thought it was nifty |
| 02:30:25 | nelson | I'm sure it *is* nifty. I'm just much more excited about getting X running than a splash screen for blob. |
| 02:31:28 | Russ | ah |
| 02:32:22 | nelson | If I had X running, with a touchscreen, then I could write a status program for my desktop and server, and replace my little 2x16 LCD upstairs. |
| 09:15:22 | Russ | btw, simple touchscreen patch against latest blob cvs is up on my site |
| 09:15:39 | ctr | yeah? |
| 09:15:47 | ctr | should they all work now? |
| 09:15:47 | Russ | yup |
| 09:15:49 | Russ | er |
| 09:15:51 | Russ | wait |
| 09:15:53 | Russ | its 3am |
| 09:15:54 | Russ | sorry |
| 09:16:11 | Russ | "btw, simple *splash* screen patch against latest blob cvs is up on my site" |
| 09:16:25 | ctr | oic :) |
| 09:16:39 | ctr | where can i get the docs for the kit in this thing |
| 09:16:48 | Russ | kit? |
| 09:16:52 | ctr | i want to dig around these things and help |
| 09:17:19 | Russ | with what exactly? |
| 09:20:00 | ctr | the tuxscreen |
| 09:20:21 | ctr | like information on the actual internals |
| 09:21:25 | Russ | there are some partial schematics on the wiki |
| 09:21:40 | Russ | mainly of the DSP board |
| 09:22:21 | ctr | k |
| 09:22:50 | ctr | it's just this muight be a good way of me getting my hands dirty with kernel and wot not hacking |
| 09:23:04 | Russ | the dsp is on my list, I haven't got around to starting code |
| 09:23:11 | Russ | it will take a lot of trial and error |
| 09:23:35 | Russ | also, there is some inferno code that sets up commands to be sent off to the DSP |
| 09:23:50 | Russ | anyway, I'm going to sleep |
| 09:24:11 | ctr | ok |
| 09:24:15 | ctr | laters |
| 10:13:09 | ctr | is away: bath, and b00k |
| 18:06:08 | matrix | that was weird. |
| 18:06:24 | Russ | what? |
| 18:06:37 | matrix | the shannon wouldn't recognize the pcmcia nic for a while |
| 18:06:48 | Russ | hmm....maybe it was loose? |
| 18:06:59 | matrix | kept returning as memory or unfound |
| 18:07:17 | Russ | did you ever get the kernel compling? |
| 18:08:38 | matrix | not cross compiled, it's in the middle of a native compile now |
| 18:08:50 | Russ | what distro was that on? |
| 18:09:18 | matrix | debian 2.3 |
| 18:10:28 | Russ | did you try make mrproper |
| 18:10:35 | Russ | cp arch/arm/def-configs/shannon .config |
| 18:10:38 | Russ | make zImage? |
| 18:11:30 | Russ | (with a make oldconfig in there) |
| 18:12:03 | matrix | didn't try the def-configs/shannon, i used the one in the buildroot tarball |
| 18:12:16 | Russ | that one is ok |
| 18:12:29 | Russ | did you do a make oldconfig on it? |
| 18:12:37 | matrix | yeah |
| 18:13:26 | matrix | it compiles most of the kernel, just stopped at entry_armV.S or similar |
| 18:37:23 | Aelhaz | "anonymous memory card" usually means that the card wasn't init'd by hardware quick enough, if it happens a lot you can just increase the latency on cardmgr |
| 18:38:02 | Aelhaz | on my notebook, when it's on battery power, the slots are out of pcmcia spec, takes way more than 100ms for the controller to init the card |
| 18:39:20 | Aelhaz | on a strongarm, I'd imagine, if the cpu was under a lot of load, it might take a while to respond to card insertion |
| 18:54:12 | Russ | the lack of reset probably doesn't help |
| 19:03:42 | matrix | sounds like whats happening to me |
| 19:21:53 | matrix | russ- native compilation and cross compilation of the kernel are working fine now |
| 19:22:50 | matrix | i had the emdebian binutils-arm package still installed and even though it wasn't first in my path they were being called |
| 19:23:00 | matrix | the erikm toolchain works great |
| 19:32:05 | Aelhaz | matrix: by any chance does the wlan-ng wireless lan driver compile? ftp://ftp.linux-wlan.org/pub/linux-wlan-ng/linux-wlan-ng-0.1.9.tar.gz |
| 19:36:50 | Aelhaz | that's the appropriate driver for the majority of cheap wireless nics, tho wvlan_cs works too |
| 20:54:18 | Russ | hey tim |
| 20:54:27 | Russ | check out my splash screen patch |
| 20:54:43 | Russ | http://russ.dhs.org/files/tuxpatches/splash.tar.gz |
| 20:54:50 | Russ | works with latest blob CVS |
| 20:54:53 | ctr | ordering in 3 days time :) |
| 21:06:15 | Russ | BZFlag? |
| 21:23:52 | BZFlag | is here. |
| 21:24:00 | BZFlag | Russ: cool. Will do! ;-) |
| 21:24:15 | BZFlag | what was up? just a divisor issue? |
| 21:24:26 | BZFlag | egg5050? |
| 21:24:39 | huevo5050 | ofcourse |
| 21:25:10 | huevo5050 | im looking to buy a tuxscreen |
| 21:25:56 | BZFlag | is that like 1/2 egg and 1/2 egg? ;-) |
| 21:26:13 | BZFlag | huevo5050: fine. check the web site. it's all there. ;-) |
| 21:27:20 | huevo5050 | ok, but you say that chat with you firstly, then... but OK, how many units do you have in stock??? |
| 21:27:36 | BZFlag | as it says on the wiki, over 1000 units. |
| 21:28:54 | huevo5050 | all right i contact with you when i decide about this (apologize my english!!) xDDD |
| 21:28:55 | BZFlag | the message on the wiki is just to confirm that folks have not edited the shipping address etc. It's all correct at the moment. |
| 21:29:28 | BZFlag | no hay problema. habla me en espanol se queries. |
| 21:29:50 | ctr | hehe |
| 21:30:15 | huevo5050 | otra pregunta que son dogles??? |
| 21:30:32 | BZFlag | pero me espanol puede ser peyor [sp?] que tu engles. |
| 21:30:34 | huevo5050 | dongle |
| 21:30:43 | BZFlag | dongles |
| 21:31:12 | BZFlag | el telephono tiene un jtag connector en uno de los "boards" |
| 21:31:42 | BZFlag | esto is para poner el "boot code". |
| 21:32:44 | BZFlag | ahora tenemos un "procedure" que utilise un null modem y no debe de tener el jtag. |
| 21:32:56 | BZFlag | hacks out some spanish... |
| 21:33:05 | huevo5050 | ok, bueno pues eso es todo ya me pondre en contacto contigo mas adelante. ok, This its all folk, y went to contact with you later... |
| 21:33:14 | BZFlag | in english: you can use a null modem now and you don't have to have a jtag connector. |
| 21:33:27 | huevo5050 | ok |
| 21:33:54 | BZFlag | if you want to use jtag you need to solder on the connector, build a cable, and have some form of jtag programmer. |
| 21:33:56 | huevo5050 | and what about US power suply, your use 125V, and in europe 220V... any problem with this... |
| 21:34:15 | BZFlag | the cheapest programmer is the parallel port "dongle" jtag connector pictured on the site. |
| 21:34:16 | huevo5050 | i prefer null modem :D |
| 21:34:37 | BZFlag | as do most. |
| 21:34:55 | BZFlag | you still need to unlock the flash as on FlashUnlock with a 12v power. |
| 21:35:16 | huevo5050 | yeah, put i pay you 20$ for make this |
| 21:35:17 | BZFlag | That only needs to be done once. I offer to do it for $25 |
| 21:35:33 | huevo5050 | ok 25$ |
| 21:35:38 | BZFlag | ok. |
| 21:35:57 | ctr | i'll do it |
| 21:36:03 | ctr | purely for the fun and games aspect |
| 21:36:14 | BZFlag | ibot x en sp That only needs to be done once. I offer to do it for $25 |
| 21:36:16 | | BZFlag: Eso necesita solamente ser hecha una vez. Ofrezco hacerlo para $25 |
| 21:36:16 | ctr | nothing some insulation tape and wot-not can't solve |
| 21:36:25 | BZFlag | heh ;-) |
| 21:36:35 | ctr | BZFlag: that rocks |
| 21:36:47 | ctr | ibot x en de hello |
| 21:36:48 | | ctr: hallo |
| 21:37:04 | ctr | ibot x en de i would like to purchase some of your delicious tuxscreens |
| 21:37:05 | | ctr: ich möchte einiges Ihres köstlichen tuxscreens kaufen |
| 21:37:12 | ctr | my god |
| 21:37:13 | ctr | that rocks |
| 21:37:15 | ctr | :) |
| 21:37:33 | ctr | does it use babel? |
| 21:37:39 | BZFlag | yep |
| 21:37:54 | ctr | hrmm |
| 21:37:59 | ctr | have to add that to my bot |
| 21:38:00 | huevo5050 | 4[ibot4] 1is a bot or a human??? |
| 21:38:03 | BZFlag | but it outputs in unicode |
| 21:38:14 | | somebody said infobot was at http://www.infobot.org |
| 21:38:14 | BZFlag | ibot infobot? |
| 21:38:23 | BZFlag | ibot is an infobot. |
| 21:39:11 | BZFlag | ctr: check the SF infobot site for my babel.pl fixes. |
| 21:39:19 | ctr | k |
| 21:39:23 | huevo5050 | the tuxscreen come with a ethernet or similar broadband adapter?? |
| 21:41:38 | ctr | BZFlag: i wrote my bot in my own langauge :) |
| 21:42:30 | ctr | speaking of that |
| 21:42:35 | BZFlag | no. 2 pcmcia slots and for a limit time I have a Kingston cio10t cf ethernet card with a pcmcia carrier for $20 which works under Linux, but not under Inferno. (none do). |
| 21:42:37 | ctr | i think i shall write some user routine |
| 21:42:38 | ctr | s |
| 22:37:50 | Russ | BZFlag: it had to do with a lot of things |
| 23:38:08 | cworth | about to zap my second phone for the first time... :) |
