00:10.08 | MG_Tak | damnit I heard this hilarious song in the car and I can't find out what it was. :( |
00:11.22 | treke | details. |
00:13.16 | MG_Tak | treke: on? |
00:13.23 | treke | the hilarious song. |
00:13.27 | MG_Tak | oh |
00:13.37 | MG_Tak | it's kinda rap-ish. it's just some guy taking shots at everyone |
00:16.44 | rev | what kind of shots? |
00:16.58 | rev | er food |
00:17.04 | rev | underground hip hop not commercial rap tho |
00:17.36 | MG_Tak | he just kinda makes fun of everyone |
00:17.46 | MG_Tak | something about Nelly not sounding gangsta |
00:17.49 | rev | heh |
00:17.51 | treke | rev: You dont look like much of a rap guy |
00:17.55 | MG_Tak | and about R Kelly and Fred Durst or something |
00:17.57 | rev | well |
00:17.59 | rev | i'm not a rap guy |
00:18.02 | rev | but i do listen to hip hop |
00:18.03 | rev | :) |
00:18.04 | absentia3 | re |
00:18.08 | rev | though not exclusively or anything |
00:18.13 | rev | i listen to a bunch of stuff |
00:18.15 | rev | absentia3: sup sup |
00:18.29 | rev | well, i can't say i dance |
00:18.35 | rev | for me it's more that my mind reacts |
00:19.38 | MG_Tak | treke: only other detail I have is that the guy sounds sorta hispanic |
00:19.43 | MG_Tak | and he keeps saying "I tease" |
00:19.47 | MG_Tak | I think |
00:23.45 | absentia3 | god dammit |
00:23.51 | absentia3 | mozille for freebsd can't use netscape.net mail |
00:23.54 | absentia3 | opera can't even sign in |
00:24.09 | absentia3 | on the pc, netscape signs me in with who is using aol im at the moment, and this isn't the account... that I want to use |
00:24.18 | absentia3 | and it doesn't give you any other way to log in with another user |
00:24.28 | rev | absentia3: that sucks |
00:24.29 | rev | that's weird |
00:24.30 | rev | :/ |
00:24.35 | absentia3 | and when I log out of aol im and then log in with the proper user, it won't allow me to delete mail. |
00:24.47 | rev | haha |
00:24.47 | absentia3 | this happens repeatedly... and then a day or so later, it goes back to normal |
00:24.50 | rev | weird |
00:27.18 | absentia3 | ah, nyetscrape 4.7 under blows seems to allow me to use netscrape mail |
00:27.22 | absentia3 | I need to get a new mail system |
00:27.53 | rev | get an account at hotpop |
00:27.56 | rev | and use it elsewhere |
00:28.03 | rev | like on your Z etc |

00:28.17 | absentia3 | true |
00:28.31 | absentia3 | I just want to get up tmda/tmda-cgi on my own domain... I've just been far too lazy. |
00:28.38 | rev | ah |
00:29.17 | absentia3 | that's what I use a lot |
00:29.22 | absentia3 | but I'll still have tmda in front of it. |
00:29.48 | absentia3 | ie: ssh + pine is mua.. I'm talking about mta. |
00:33.12 | treke | hmmm. looks like I'll be switching to osx on my laptop. |
00:34.05 | rev | oh? |
00:34.08 | rev | didn't know you had a mac |
00:34.20 | rev | i'm happy to finally have a computer gain |
00:34.23 | rev | i gave my ibook to my gf |
00:34.28 | treke | dont yet. |
00:34.41 | rev | and have been at a loss lately, with the c760 not cutting it for use as my primary machine |
00:34.50 | rev | but i rekon this sig3 may fill the niche, so i'm happy |
00:34.52 | rev | oh? |
00:34.57 | rev | what kind of mac you thinking about getting it? |
00:34.58 | rev | er |
00:34.58 | rev | getting |
00:35.02 | rev | and why do you have to run OS X? |
00:35.16 | rev | although i ran OS X instead of linux for a number of reasons |
00:35.28 | rev | i was pretty disapointed in linux on PPC |
00:35.31 | rev | at least on that machine |
00:36.21 | rev | ack |
00:36.23 | rev | stupid xchjat |
00:36.34 | rev | in a channel like so, it blanks out my tet |
00:36.36 | rev | rather |
00:36.47 | rev | changes the foreground color to the background color so that i can't see it |
00:37.03 | rev | unless i do a select all (ctrl-a), and then it goes back to normal |
00:37.04 | rev | grr |
00:37.13 | treke | hehe. Work is apparently issuing me a power book. |
00:37.21 | rev | hell yeah! |
00:37.26 | rev | any particular reason? |
00:37.29 | rev | or just cuz they're swell folks? |
00:37.36 | treke | basically the latter |
00:37.43 | treke | at the moment I've got a compaq laptop |
00:40.36 | rev | ... |
00:40.42 | rev | and that sucks too bad, so they're giving you an upgrade? |
00:42.37 | treke | Actually, I like my compaq :p |
00:42.44 | rev | ah |
00:42.44 | rev | wekll |
00:42.45 | rev | er |
00:42.45 | rev | well |
00:42.48 | rev | then why not keep it? |
00:43.01 | treke | I am keeping it :) |
00:43.12 | rev | ahhh nice |
00:43.12 | treke | the compaq is a personal machine that I've used almost 100% for work |
00:43.16 | rev | ah |
00:43.16 | rev | oh |
00:43.23 | rev | i thought they boguht you the compaq a while back |
00:43.41 | treke | nah, I bought the compaq since I needed a laptop |
00:43.57 | rev | ah |
00:43.59 | treke | great machine |
00:44.03 | rev | cool |
00:44.45 | treke | We'll see if I ever end up liking osx :) |
00:44.53 | rev | heh |
00:45.00 | rev | why do they want to do a pb now? |
00:45.16 | treke | boss is a cool guy, and he loves his new powerbook |
00:45.20 | rev | ah sweet |
00:45.27 | rev | what size you gunna get? |
00:45.39 | treke | not sure. my guessis 15inch |
00:45.43 | rev | mmhmm |
00:46.07 | treke | for the best, I'm usually clueless when mac users have questions :) |
00:46.22 | rev | ah |
00:46.26 | rev | heh |
00:46.36 | rev | welcome to the high church of jobs |
00:46.39 | treke | "email me the output of nestat | ifconfig | awk '{sed s/foo//g}'" |
00:47.00 | rev | on this mac? :PO |
00:47.16 | treke | rev: that's usually my response to mac questions :) |
00:47.19 | rev | ah |
00:47.20 | rev | heh |
00:47.20 | rev | :P |
00:47.44 | treke | very much a console guy a heart |
00:47.48 | rev | mmhmm |
00:48.04 | rev | you could always just run darwin |
00:48.10 | treke | hehe |
00:48.11 | rev | or still have vanilla OS X installed, but quit the gui layetr |
00:48.26 | treke | well, I also like my X for multiple consoles. |
00:48.29 | rev | mmhmm |
00:48.46 | rev | after my crappy stint at using linux/ppc on the ibook i went to os x + x11 with no quartz |
00:48.53 | rev | but gave up on that after a while too, but it can be done |
00:48.59 | treke | what was wrong with linux/ppc :) |
00:49.02 | rev | well |
00:49.06 | treke | not used it much, but it seemed to work well |
00:49.07 | rev | it seemed unnaturally slow |
00:49.12 | rev | seemed a lot slower than it should've been |
00:49.16 | rev | i dunno |
00:49.36 | rev | "seemed slow" = gui system and apps were slow |
00:49.47 | rev | mind you i was running very little - ion + squeak + opera |
00:49.55 | rev | i tried gnome 2 when it came out and it was punishment |
00:50.05 | rev | even though gnome 2 doesn't run that bad on my k6-2/350 |
00:50.18 | rev | and the 500 mhz ibook itself isn't only as fast as a k6-2/350, that's for sure |
00:50.21 | treke | gnome 2 feels slow on my home machine |
00:50.31 | rev | yes |
00:50.35 | rev | it does on any machine i've tried it on |
00:50.40 | rev | but this was slower, death slow |
00:50.50 | rev | also, the squeak VM for unix/linux is worse than the one for Mac OS |
00:51.01 | rev | more and better optimization on Mac OS, X or classic |
00:51.03 | rev | not sure why |
00:51.06 | rev | haha |
00:51.08 | rev | no crap |
00:51.43 | rev | and while OS X sucks RAM like it's going out of style |
00:51.52 | rev | it was faster than any environment i tried on linux/ppc |
00:52.01 | rev | which seems odd |
00:52.01 | treke | gonna try the new gnome out, see if I can get myself onto gui apps |
00:52.04 | rev | yeah |
00:52.12 | rev | i used gnome2 for a while on the k6-2 |
00:52.17 | treke | biggest kicker is mail |
00:52.22 | rev | when i first installed RH8 and didn't get around to compiling ion |
00:52.26 | rev | why? |
00:52.26 | treke | I've yet to figure out a decent way to do mail |
00:52.33 | rev | why not just continue using mutt or whatever cli mail? |
00:52.51 | treke | rev: If I do that I'll end up going to my 1970s ways again :) |
00:54.01 | rev | meh |
00:54.16 | rev | can't just do a little of each? |
00:54.26 | rev | i do it all in squeakl ('cept browsing, of course) |
00:54.29 | treke | I've tried. |
00:54.31 | rev | though my email is pine |
00:54.58 | treke | first it's my email, next it's my news reading, then all the suddent irc, then file managent :p |
00:55.04 | rev | so? |
00:56.45 | treke | that's where the kicker is, when I release I'm not using any of the gui stuff, I just reinstall ion and I'm back to square one :p |
00:56.56 | treke | realize |
00:58.05 | absentia3 | re |
01:01.21 | rev | heh |
01:01.22 | rev | well |
01:01.33 | rev | what do you use for email? |
01:01.38 | treke | mutt |
01:01.41 | rev | ah |
01:01.52 | treke | the biggest reason i don't use anything else is performance |
01:02.07 | treke | I've got a shit load of email in my mailbox and imap always seems slow as shit |
01:02.18 | rev | ah |
01:02.24 | rev | pine always worked fine for me |
01:02.27 | rev | mail.app in OS X too |
01:02.33 | rev | although i only have 20 MB or so of mail |
01:02.45 | rev | and squeak's email client - pop not imap- handles my 40 mb archive |
01:02.51 | rev | but that's little compared to what you're likely talking about |
01:03.04 | treke | very few of my folders go over 40mb |
01:03.06 | rev | ah |
01:03.51 | treke | hmm. inbox is up to 30 megs |
01:04.15 | rev | ah |
01:04.48 | treke | seems really snappy |

03:12.56 | rev | although i could use F1 on the CE machine too i suppose, they said i could get a refund if i caouldn't get it ti work |

03:13.11 | rev | do you run the sharp rom? |
03:13.14 | rev | or opie/oz? |
03:13.18 | offroadgeek | cacko's rom |

03:13.41 | offroadgeek | don't think there's a stable opie/oz for the 760 yet... otherwise I'd try it |
03:14.12 | offroadgeek | when I ran the sharp rom, I just un-installed it... then installed jeode |
03:14.48 | offroadgeek | I have no real reason for un-installing it... my java apps worked fine with it as well |
03:15.04 | rev | i don't think so either |
03:15.06 | rev | yeah |
03:15.14 | rev | uninstalled it? |

10:43.12 | razzle | hi! I've installed kaffe on my Z but I get an error when trying to run it (please check your CLASSPATH..). How do I set the classpath? |
11:46.36 | Twiun | razzle: export CLASSPATH=someclasspath |
11:46.55 | Twiun | razzle: what did you want to do with Kaffe on your Z (and which Kaffe version are you trying?) |

12:09.22 | overflow_UK | any one got wireless working on zaurus yet |
12:09.48 | overflow_UK | i got a dlink dcf-660w and cant get it to work properly |
12:10.07 | overflow_UK | ive put on wireless monitor and i can connect to the base but thats it?? |

12:10.34 | overflow_UK | any ideas anyone?? |
12:26.45 | razzle | Tiwun: I'm using the one from OZ testing feed and I want to compile and run some java console apps on my Z |
12:29.11 | razzle | which path should I use as classpath? |
12:29.30 | Twiun | what are you trying to achieve? |
12:29.48 | Twiun | the one in the feed is way too old btw, Kaffe is now at version 1.1.2 |
12:30.00 | Twiun | which apps, GUI apps? |
12:30.07 | Twiun | or commandline apps? |
12:30.19 | razzle | I want to test my homework (console) apps on my Z |
12:30.43 | razzle | that is, it's an app that reads in a list of strings and sorts them with quicksort |
12:30.51 | Twiun | why don't you use the j2me download from Sun? |
12:31.08 | Twiun | (Kaffe on the Zaurus is still too raw for non-developers) |
12:31.21 | razzle | hm does it work with oz? |
12:31.47 | Twiun | you'll have to unpack it manually, but yeah, there's no reason why it shouldn't work |
12:32.00 | Twiun | OZ is still a linux distribution |
12:32.12 | Twiun | there's nothing mystical about it |
12:32.15 | razzle | ok.. so there's just no .ipkg, that's all? |
12:32.36 | Twiun | no, it comes an ipk file - but it's badly packaged |
12:35.24 | Twiun | that's a JVM. You'll need to also download a compiler (jikes is my preferred one on the Z) and a class library, most likely the classes.zip from one of the 1.1.8 JDKs |
12:35.28 | razzle | um I looked here http://java.sun.com/j2me/download.html which is the right link? |
12:36.19 | razzle | ok |
12:36.21 | Twiun | razzle: it's in the early access section, search for pp4zaurus |
12:38.34 | razzle | ah i c..gotta register it seems |
12:39.02 | *** part/#zaurus overflow_UK (~w@host217-37-60-243.in-addr.btopenworld.com) |
12:43.00 | Twiun | yup |
12:43.47 | Twiun | out of curiousity, what platform do you use at uni/college to develop? |
12:44.22 | razzle | SunOS |
12:45.45 | Twiun | I hope they're letting you develop locally, not through telnet at least ;) |
12:47.01 | razzle | yeah and ssh when I'm at home |
12:48.25 | MG_Tak | nothin' quite like export DISPLAY to me. |
12:49.29 | razzle | (and X tunneling thru ssh) |
12:51.39 | Twiun | tunneling X through ssh over 25 hops kills performance ;) |
12:52.08 | MG_Tak | X tunneling through SSL'ed SMTP. |
12:52.16 | razzle | sure does..that's why I usually don't use it, just a simple ssh console is enough for me |
12:52.21 | MG_Tak | Just a /little/ bit of overhead. |
12:52.50 | Twiun | razzle: absolutely - that's what I'm doing atm - sshing from work into my home server |
12:53.07 | Twiun | razzle: tunneling everything private through the link (email, browsing, IM) |
12:55.07 | Twiun | MG_Tak: I would - it's not hard to do either |
12:55.24 | Twiun | MG_Tak: squid on the linux end, and set up the IM to use the proxy |
12:58.50 | razzle | hm i got pp4zaurus and jikes now, where do I find the classes.zip? |
12:59.05 | razzle | jdk is j2se now but I can't find the zip file in there anymore |
12:59.23 | Twiun | get hold of any 1.1.8 JDK, there will be one in there |
13:05.34 | razzle | hm tough one, sun doesn't seem to host it anymore |
13:05.52 | Twiun | have a look on blackdown.org |
13:05.59 | Twiun | they use the Sun sources |
13:06.22 | razzle | ok |
13:13.22 | razzle | aah got it |
13:14.57 | Twiun | to compile with jikes, you'll need to add that classes.zip as the first item on the classpath |
13:16.22 | razzle | let's see.. first I should install jikes? |
13:16.45 | Twiun | jikes for the Zaurus will be in a tarball - no ipk for it |
13:17.35 | Twiun | http://adorphuye.com/files/ the ZJikes.zip file |
13:18.51 | razzle | hm i got the one from http://www.micronova.com/ZAURUS |
13:18.52 | razzle | is it the same? |
13:19.26 | Twiun | probably |
13:19.36 | Twiun | you'll soon know if it doesn't work |
13:19.58 | MG_Tak | Twiun: oh, that way |
13:20.18 | MG_Tak | Twiun: I was thinking exporting mozilla and gaim |
13:20.26 | Twiun | MG_Tak: Good god, no ;) |
13:20.37 | Twiun | MG_Tak: I'm on a p2 266 at work ;) |
13:20.53 | razzle | looks like there's only a binary in there. So I just need to extract it, right? |
13:20.56 | Twiun | MG_Tak: w2k, so opera and trillian. puTTY for the ssh |
13:20.58 | MG_Tak | that is frightening |
13:21.04 | MG_Tak | opera kicks ass |
13:21.09 | Twiun | MG_Tak: want frightening? Eclipse is usable ;) |
13:21.14 | MG_Tak | trillian, I don't like much |
13:21.25 | Twiun | razzle: yep |
13:21.43 | Twiun | MG_Tak: I need to be on AIM, MSN and Y! at the same time... easier (cheaper on the ram too) |
13:21.54 | razzle | gaim keeps crashing for me when I connect my ICQ account |
13:21.55 | Twiun | MG_Tak: use the sources and change it back ;) |
13:23.28 | MG_Tak | Do you think I'd be in this channel if I was capable of helping myself that much? ;) |
13:25.40 | Twiun | Ahhhh, I dunno ;) |
13:25.49 | Twiun | lots of people straddle a few channels |
13:28.00 | razzle | do you think it'll work if I extract jikes on my cf card in /mnt/cf/usr/bin ? |
13:30.20 | razzle | or /mnt/cf/opt/QtPalmtop/bin? |
13:30.39 | Twiun | it makes no difference where you put it as long as: |
13:30.54 | Twiun | 1) that path is on the PATH, or, |
13:31.12 | Twiun | 2) the jikes binary is symlinked from a path which is on the PATH |
13:31.40 | Twiun | you could also use absolute paths everytime you call it ;) |
13:32.32 | razzle | I'll just put it symlink it to my /usr/bin then |
13:32.36 | razzle | -pu |
13:32.37 | razzle | t |
13:37.20 | razzle | hm wtf.. i did ln -s /mnt/cf/usr/bin/jikes /usr/bin/jikes but when I try /usr/bin/jikes or just jikes it says no such file .. |
13:38.28 | Twiun | dis you chmod +x the jikes binary? |
13:38.35 | Twiun | s/dis/did/ |
13:39.20 | razzle | it runs fine when i try /mnt/cf/usr/bin/jikes |
13:39.31 | razzle | do i need to chmod the symlink, too? |
13:39.45 | Twiun | no, symlinks usually are chmod 777 |
13:39.56 | razzle | hm so whydoesn't it work? |
13:40.32 | yeiazel | ls -l /usr/bin/jikes |
13:42.20 | razzle | AAH |
13:42.26 | razzle | error found |
13:42.38 | razzle | i didn't type the complete path when creating the symlink |
13:42.41 | razzle | only relative |
13:42.45 | Twiun | lol |

13:43.43 | razzle | ok working now |
13:45.35 | razzle | let's see..$CLASSPATH is emtpy. Now I'm supposed to put the classes file in a directory and point CLASSPATH to it, correct? |
13:46.08 | Twiun | no, with jar and zip files just put them straight into CLASSPATH |
13:46.31 | Twiun | it's only when you have .class files in a directory that you want to add the directory to the CLASSPATH |
13:47.15 | Twiun | oh yeah, and you'll find that adding the current dir somewhere in the classpath will save you some hassle |
13:47.51 | razzle | hehe i somehow guessed the later one.. though where am I supposed to put the classes.zip after all? didn't get that |
13:48.42 | Twiun | anywhere at all |
13:49.09 | Twiun | as long as you do something like export CLASSPATH=some/path/classes.zip |
13:49.48 | razzle | so the whole CLASSPATH could be export CLASSPATH=/foo/classes.zip;. ? |
13:50.15 | Twiun | almost.... what's your path separators, this isn't windows :) |
13:50.46 | razzle | ack |
13:50.46 | razzle | : |
13:50.48 | Twiun | s/what's/watch/ |
13:51.02 | Twiun | yeah, that should do it |
13:51.12 | razzle | i could lie now and say I just hit the wrong key on my keyboard..lol |
13:51.47 | Twiun | when you start running with the j2me binary (cvm) you specify the classpath without classes.zip using: cvm -Djava.class.path=somepaths |
13:52.26 | Twiun | you're lucky you're getting to learn this stuff in a course ;) |
13:53.09 | Twiun | ... from the javadocs :) |
13:53.58 | razzle | i know, most people would've been like RTFM but I couldn't find TFM |
13:55.12 | Twiun | nah, I meant Java in general... Java on the Zaurus was just trial and error |
13:55.22 | Twiun | that's why I put up my Java FAQ |
13:56.27 | Twiun | granted it doesn't cover the j2me stuff or the compiler (it's assumed you'll be in the java workplace already) |
13:57.20 | razzle | well most stuff we're learning right now I already taught myself but I rarely use Java so I forgot most. But when I look at the code, usually it comes back |
13:57.32 | MG_Tak | razzle: FTFM |
13:57.35 | MG_Tak | or GTFTFM |
13:57.53 | razzle | go to fuck the fucking manual? |
13:58.09 | Twiun | s/fucking/fine/ |
13:58.31 | MG_Tak | google to find TFM :) |
13:58.56 | razzle | tokyo fm? |
13:59.02 | razzle | i didn't know you're into jpop |

14:00.11 | MG_Tak | and $8 lattes. |
14:00.56 | razzle | we got wlan at university but they use some weird cisco implementation that I can't get to work with zeeswan |
14:01.20 | MG_Tak | razzle: I can't get zeeswan to work at all. |
14:01.25 | MG_Tak | so you're one step ahead of me.. |
14:01.55 | razzle | hm it SAYS it's running but I don't know for sure |

14:04.14 | MG_Tak | so I feel like a dumb turd. |
14:04.38 | razzle | ok you said the pp4zaurus ipk has to be installed manually.. how do I do that? I guess it's not done by simply extracting the files to the correct folders |
14:04.56 | MG_Tak | should be able to install it from the package manager, no? |
14:05.21 | razzle | dunno, twiun said something about it being badly packed or something |
14:05.43 | razzle | hm by the way, is there a pptp version for the Z? |
14:06.32 | razzle | (my university uses some fucked up VPN implementations..) |
14:06.46 | absentia3 | re |
14:07.13 | Twiun | MG_Tak: Sun have bolloxed up their ipk several times, they never package it properly |
14:07.21 | MG_Tak | Twiun: oooh |
14:07.29 | Twiun | razzle: the ipk format is just a tarbal |
14:07.41 | razzle | i know |
14:07.41 | Twiun | razzle: or an ar archive |
14:07.50 | razzle | but there are some other files in it |
14:07.54 | razzle | control stuff |
14:08.12 | Twiun | yeah, but that's not used in the j2me ipk |
14:08.18 | Twiun | just extract the data.tgz |
14:08.29 | razzle | ok nice |
14:08.53 | Twiun | you'll also need the libfloat ipk - should be in the http://adorphuye.com/files |
14:11.37 | razzle | hm java requires lots of stuff |
14:13.13 | Twiun | nah, just _this_ java |
14:13.26 | Twiun | and remember, usually all this is packaged up in a nice sdk |
14:13.46 | Twiun | developing ON a Zaurus is just a gimmick - it wasn't really intended as a fulltime occupation ;) |
14:14.18 | razzle | hmm at least perl runs without any hassles |
14:14.49 | razzle | if i could just get wlan running i wouldn't need to install java, gcc and all the other tools |

14:22.34 | razzle | how do I use it? |
14:23.36 | Twiun | got yourself a java source file you can compile, or some java app you can run? |
14:23.47 | razzle | got a sourcefile |
14:24.50 | Twiun | go into the dir where you've got it, jikes -classpath $CLASSPATH mysourcefile.java |
14:26.45 | razzle | hmm i only got the default output from jikes that I get when I run jikes with no parameters |
14:27.14 | Twiun | echo $CLASSPATH |
14:28.44 | razzle | wtf it's empty.. but i already set it..wait. the console restarted because I removed the cf card |
14:29.57 | absentia | you jknow |
14:30.02 | absentia | we have like 12 people in our department |
14:30.10 | absentia | and many days in december, 9 or more people are out. |
14:30.14 | absentia | it's almost like getting a month off work. |
14:30.20 | Twiun | sounds about right ;) |
14:30.22 | absentia | there's a "freeze" from dec 15 through jan 15. |
14:30.31 | Twiun | that's why I'm starting my new job on dec 1st ;) |
14:30.39 | absentia | I don't take off those days, because other than warming a seat, it's pretty light. |
14:30.42 | Twiun | with a week holiday in january |
14:30.56 | absentia | when I started here |
14:31.14 | razzle | it couldn't find java/util and java/lang in the folder where i got the classes.zip file |
14:31.27 | absentia | I said that there were twk choices, I could start in 3 weeks, or in 1 week... but in two weeks from now (back then, before my first week), I have a 1 week trip planned |
14:31.43 | absentia | and, I'd like to start this next week, but I don't want the following week to apply to vacation... |
14:31.46 | absentia | and they were ok with that. |
14:31.53 | absentia | so it was one week on, 1 week vacation.. then back to work. |
14:31.55 | absentia | kind of nice. |
14:32.36 | Twiun | and paid vacation, right? |
14:33.42 | razzle | ah fixed |

14:35.31 | razzle | ah well, it was fun trying anway |
14:35.35 | Twiun | use a StringTokenizer if you want similar functionality |

15:03.31 | yeiazel | c800 ? :) |
15:03.32 | Twiun | actually... the 6000 should make the prices for the c series go down some |
15:03.46 | mickeyl | I'd hope so, but I doubt a clamshell successor will follow soon |
15:03.55 | razzle | importing from Japan is WAY cheaper by the way |

15:07.06 | razzle | I'm still trying to find the right format to run movies on my Z.. no matter what i tried so far, audio and video run out of sync after a while |
15:09.56 | yeiazel | no pb here |
15:10.12 | yeiazel | divx, 320xX (where X <240) |
15:10.30 | yeiazel | audio @ 64kbps, video @ 200-300 kbps |
15:10.31 | razzle | mp3 stereo >128kbit? |
15:10.43 | razzle | or ogg? |
15:10.49 | yeiazel | mp3 |
15:11.01 | yeiazel | (works with 128, but takes too much space :) |
15:11.23 | yeiazel | the video is the tricky part... |
15:11.35 | yeiazel | video @ 96 kbps is too ugly :) |
15:12.08 | razzle | hm i got a 256mb cf, so space shouldn't be an issue for 30min. movies |
15:13.20 | yeiazel | I've tried to put 2 'full' movies on 1 256MB cf |
15:13.39 | yeiazel | anyway, my battery's dying, it doesn't last enough for 2 movies |
15:14.41 | razzle | so you say divx (5.0.3?) at 320x240 @ 200-300 kbps and audio 64-128kbps (mp3 or ogg?) |
15:16.05 | yeiazel | xvid |

18:47.08 | blitzrage | such as theKompany ROM? |
18:48.05 | Twiun | that's sounds quite likely |
18:48.08 | Twiun | blame Sharp |
18:48.14 | treke|laptop | right |
18:48.34 | treke|laptop | you can only use the qtopia desktop 1.5.4 build that sharp distributes |
18:49.15 | blitzrage | what ROM are you using right now, and what do you use to sync? I want to start syncing my zaurus with a Linux desktop, which I haven't actually done yet :) |
18:50.11 | Twiun | then again I don't use any Qt on my Z atm |
18:50.22 | Twiun | the ROM is a custom build of OZ |
18:50.28 | treke|laptop | Twiun, ha |
18:51.01 | Twiun | treke|laptop: raw java on the fb ;) |
18:51.11 | Twiun | treke|laptop: who needs the overhead of Qt anyway! |

18:51.44 | Disconnect | blitzrage: there is a guy working on a z-side syncml (IIRC) "client" for syncing to OS-X. the bonus is that multisync and company support it. http://www.hgsc.bcm.tmc.edu/~kdurbin/zsync.html |
18:51.48 | blitzrage | I've done this a bunch of times with Windows.. but never with linux :) |

18:52.35 | blitzrage | thats how I usually transfer from windows lately |
18:52.44 | W8TVI | they are nice |
18:52.46 | Disconnect | the basic theory (as I understand their project) is that since you can only use DTM on the z itself, use a Z app to convert between DTM and something open/useful/etc |
18:52.49 | Twiun | you should be able to use winSCP in windows too |
18:53.28 | blitzrage | nice. ok, got a good idea now. I'll go and play and get something working. |
18:53.36 | blitzrage | ooo.. crazy |
18:53.48 | blitzrage | what ROM you prefer? OZ ? |
18:54.20 | W8TVI | hugs even |

18:55.01 | blitzrage | Disconnect: what do you use now? |
18:55.08 | Twiun | Disconnect: guaranteed there should be a minimum of 5 or 6 |
18:55.24 | blitzrage | I've been using theKompany rom lately with pretty good success |

18:59.59 | treke|laptop | better than rsync imo |
19:01.10 | Twiun | ahhh, that explains the quality we've been seeing ;) |
19:02.34 | treke|laptop | nice thing about unison is that it handles file deletions |
19:03.06 | absentia | so does rsync |
19:03.14 | absentia | rsync does delta copies within files. |
19:03.19 | absentia | I had to do |

19:06.00 | absentia | those are the options I use |
19:06.06 | Disconnect | treke|laptop: drsync is the bidirectional sync |
19:06.10 | treke|laptop | obviously that needs some human input or a rule to prefer one side, but does rsync handle the case where file A is deleted on the zaurus and file b is deleted on the server, then make sure both files are gone on both sides? |
19:06.57 | absentia | rsync can do deletes, but I'm not sure if you're asking for something else. |
19:07.25 | Disconnect | http://hacks.dlux.hu/drsync/ |
19:07.48 | treke|laptop | ok, we have two computers, does rsync just make one computer look like the other computer, or cant it be set up to merge the two together? |
19:08.34 | Disconnect | treke|laptop: you can tell it to delete 'missing' files or to leave them alone (or to archive them) |

19:16.41 | treke|laptop | Supposedly it was being cached. |
19:16.44 | Luke-Jr | which unfortunately means I have 2 copies of all my email headers =p |
19:17.07 | treke|laptop | space is cheap :) |
19:18.05 | Luke-Jr | they go back to around 1999 |
19:18.43 | treke|laptop | if it costs me 200mb of storage to save a sizable amount of time, that's fine by me |
19:18.57 | absentia | wais ? |
19:19.04 | Luke-Jr | 600? |
19:19.15 | treke|laptop | Luke-Jr, 600 would also be acceptable |
19:19.40 | Luke-Jr | o well |
19:19.51 | Luke-Jr | I guess the reason it hurts me is because I have so many backups of it |
19:19.57 | Disconnect | wasn't someone in here a couple weeks ago looking for tips on a mail reader? |
19:20.04 | Luke-Jr | me? |
19:20.14 | Disconnect | to write one I mean. |
19:20.16 | Disconnect | was that you? |
19:20.17 | Luke-Jr | o |
19:20.18 | Luke-Jr | nope |
19:20.42 | treke|laptop | none that work :) |
19:20.42 | Disconnect | it was one of those "what would your ideal mail client do" .. |
19:20.55 | Luke-Jr | treke|bed: yea, I guessed that after a while =p |
19:21.13 | Disconnect | Luke-Jr: the sharp mail client does imap. it sucks a LOT, but it does it. right up until it goes OOM and gets itself killed off. |
19:21.24 | Luke-Jr | Disconnect: Mozilla, but at a decent speed |
19:21.32 | Luke-Jr | Disconnect: it doesn't do it right |
19:22.05 | absentia | I wrote a perl script to sort mbox files by date... I thought that was fairly nifty. |
19:22.08 | Luke-Jr | IIRC, it tried to download every message on the server... |
19:23.17 | Disconnect | I ran it this morning, it seemed to just get headers. but it won't let you set an "ignore these subscribed boxes" so it pulled up LOTS of headers. (prolly close to 40k of them) and cratered. |
19:23.31 | Disconnect | hrm. yah, come to think of it. |
19:23.36 | *** join/#zaurus poo (~langfors@shields.experience.com) |
19:23.36 | Disconnect | it does dl all the messages. |
19:23.48 | Luke-Jr | tries to* |
19:23.51 | Disconnect | so thats another point against it - there's no "I'm online, dumbass" button. |
19:24.01 | Luke-Jr | obviously, it won't work with a 400-600 MB mailbox |
19:24.09 | Disconnect | (and no 'download most recent X [days/messages/...]') |
19:24.46 | Luke-Jr | "Download most recent X [days/messages/...]" <-- one feature missing in Mozilla |
19:24.55 | treke|laptop | hehe |
19:25.22 | kergoth | treke|laptop: mutt+fetchmail? :) |
19:25.33 | treke|laptop | kergoth, heh |
19:25.39 | treke|laptop | kergoth, want pretty |
19:25.47 | kergoth | heh |
19:25.55 | kergoth | would be nice to have an mbox/maildir capable opie mail app |
19:26.03 | Luke-Jr | SunBird is pretty |
19:26.10 | Luke-Jr | it's not for mail tho |
19:26.22 | kergoth | echo heh | mail kergoth@zaurus |
19:26.27 | kergoth | would be spiffy |
19:26.28 | Luke-Jr | kergoth: who's going to store their mail on the Z locally?? |
19:26.30 | treke|laptop | kergoth, gonna try out sylpheed when I finally get switched over to X |
19:26.34 | treke|laptop | Luke-Jr, I would. |
19:26.59 | treke|laptop | I didnt say all of it |
19:27.10 | Luke-Jr | then IMAP would work better still =p |
19:27.10 | kergoth | could forward useful bits to your Z, i'd use it too |
19:27.14 | *** join/#zaurus gerrynjr (~gerrynjr@h00a0cc36b102.ne.client2.attbi.com) |
19:27.28 | treke|laptop | Luke-Jr, imap clients are obviously difficult to write. |
19:27.37 | treke|laptop | mbox readers arent, relativily speaking |
19:27.48 | Luke-Jr | treke|bed: I think IMAP would be easier than mbox reader |
19:28.01 | absentia | can't you forard mail to your z now ? |
19:28.14 | absentia | has anyone tried compiling qmail on the z? |
19:28.15 | absentia | :-> |
19:28.17 | Disconnect | full-online-only imap should be pretty simple. |
19:28.33 | absentia | or put up a static sendmail ? |
19:28.37 | treke|laptop | right, but full online only imap is only of marginal use for me :p |
19:28.55 | Disconnect | yah. |
19:28.59 | treke|laptop | tht is what opiemail2 is |
19:29.49 | kergoth | absentia: i crosscompiled postfix.. :P |
19:30.07 | absentia | ah |
19:30.24 | treke|laptop | hehe, it works with some imap servers |
19:30.32 | Luke-Jr | it doesn't install for me |
19:30.37 | Luke-Jr | cuz I don't use Opie |
19:30.51 | kergoth | it should work find under sharp with libopie installed |
19:30.53 | treke|laptop | what does using opie have to do with anything? |
19:31.08 | absentia | luke: really? |
19:31.11 | Luke-Jr | treke|bed: I'm assuming that's why it doesn't install |
19:31.14 | absentia | can I use your 760 inthe meantime? |
19:31.16 | kergoth | Luke-Jr: not going to happen. |
19:31.23 | Luke-Jr | absentia: No, I still use it for non-mail |
19:31.26 | Luke-Jr | kergoth: ? |
19:31.27 | kergoth | Luke-Jr: just about every embedded gentoo person went over to zynot |
19:31.29 | kergoth | heh |
19:31.38 | Luke-Jr | kergoth: #gentoo-embedded |
19:31.40 | absentia | what's zynot ? |
19:31.45 | kergoth | and zynot isnt going anywhere until they finish the new portage-like packaging system |
19:31.46 | Luke-Jr | absentia: fork |
19:31.48 | kergoth | Luke-Jr: i know. |
19:31.53 | Luke-Jr | kergoth: we're alive |
19:31.55 | absentia | ARGH! |
19:31.59 | absentia | yet another split |
19:32.02 | kergoth | Luke-Jr: by what definition of living? |
19:32.08 | absentia | sooner or later there's gonna be an atomic explosion |
19:32.11 | Luke-Jr | kergoth: people are working on it actively |
19:32.48 | Luke-Jr | I think the main problem is that the Portage tree itself is huge |
19:32.49 | kergoth | does your portage support crosscompilation yet? |
19:32.56 | kergoth | cause OE does, and its portage based |
19:32.58 | Luke-Jr | partially |
19:33.01 | Luke-Jr | does it need to? =p |
19:33.05 | treke|laptop | Luke-Jr, yes. |
19:33.07 | Luke-Jr | my Z is half as fast as my desktop |
19:33.12 | kergoth | your desktop sucks. |
19:33.15 | Luke-Jr | yes it does |
19:33.19 | kergoth | and building wont be half the speed |
19:33.19 | absentia | rofl |
19:33.22 | kergoth | itll be much much less |
19:33.24 | absentia | I think my Z is faster than my desktop |
19:33.29 | Luke-Jr | why not? |
19:33.42 | treke|laptop | io |
19:34.00 | treke|laptop | sd and cf are both pretty slow. |
19:34.02 | kergoth | not to mention ./configure slowness, arm machines are quite slow at configure runs due to the extensive forkin |
19:34.05 | Luke-Jr | o |
19:34.31 | Luke-Jr | Well, I think the only problem w/ cross compiling is noone's decided how to emerge them yet =p |
19:34.39 | Luke-Jr | whether to use a gcc-powerpc gcc-arm or what |
19:34.40 | absentia | they have, what, 60GB on them? |
19:34.46 | Luke-Jr | absentia: ??? |
19:34.51 | treke|laptop | absentia, something like that |
19:35.01 | absentia | luke: ipaq/skiff @ handhelds |
19:35.19 | treke|laptop | Luke-Jr, that's not exactly a trivial question to answer |
19:35.43 | Luke-Jr | skiff? |
19:35.50 | treke|laptop | an arm based device |
19:35.55 | absentia | http://m54.spy.org/zaurus/public/images/cluster-handhelds.jpg |
19:36.00 | treke|laptop | similar to a 5500/ipaq in specs |
19:37.05 | Luke-Jr | and it has 60g? |
19:37.27 | treke|laptop | It has a 1 or 2 gig hard drive attached |
19:37.32 | treke|laptop | and 60 or so over nfs |
19:37.36 | Luke-Jr | oh |

19:38.44 | kergoth | they didnt listen 2 years ago, they dont listen todya |

21:09.00 | rev|lib | isn't PPV usually like $3? |
21:09.12 | rev|lib | i can't say i've ordered a PPV in a long time though, not since i lived with my parents |
21:09.26 | rev|lib | and even then, it was $3 for a regular movie, but more- $6+ ? for a porno |
21:09.31 | rev|lib | so perhaps that is what heatxsink is thinking |
21:09.40 | rev|lib | we did it a handful of times |
21:09.40 | rev|lib | well |
21:09.50 | rev|lib | it started making sense when blockbuster started jacking prices |
21:09.59 | rev|lib | and it'd cost $2-4 to rent af ucking movie |
21:10.05 | rev|lib | why not spend $3 and not have to go there? |
21:10.10 | rev|lib | yeah, netflix owns |
21:10.13 | rev|lib | that's what we use |
21:10.17 | absentia | $19.95 |

21:26.21 | absentia | most are remote controlled, etc. |
21:26.28 | rev|lib | yeah |
21:26.29 | absentia | me, I just don't enjoy tv/movies that much. |
21:26.34 | rev|lib | mmhmm |
21:26.37 | rev|lib | if i had an assload of money |
21:26.38 | rev|lib | i'd have it |
21:26.42 | rev|lib | but otherwise, no |
21:26.44 | kergoth | i'm a music guy, i need a killer audio system |
21:26.50 | rev|lib | my SO and i both love movies, not TV |
21:26.51 | kergoth | ribbon speakers or something |
21:28.03 | absentia | I've lost most of my mp3s.... |
21:28.08 | absentia | but I do prefer music |
21:28.39 | rev|lib | haha |
21:28.40 | rev|lib | SUCKER |
21:28.45 | Reddog | run it in wine :P |
21:29.00 | MG_Tak | Too bad I don't have windows. |
21:29.16 | Reddog | why do you need windows? |
21:29.31 | MG_Tak | doesn't wine need some windows partitions to run? |
21:29.35 | Reddog | no |
21:29.35 | MG_Tak | and some windows programs? |
21:29.40 | Reddog | that's vmware |
21:29.45 | MG_Tak | ah |
21:29.55 | Reddog | i have wine installed, as well as vmware |
21:30.05 | rev|lib | wine used to do that thuogh |
21:30.12 | rev|lib | used to require a windows installation |
21:30.17 | rev|lib | for certain DLLs |
21:30.21 | rev|lib | that hadn't been reimplemented |
21:30.30 | MG_Tak | Reddog: not sure how you'd install iTunes through wine though |
21:30.31 | Reddog | well.. yeah.. sometimes |
21:30.40 | Reddog | but most of the dll's you can find online |
21:30.41 | rev|lib | maybe by having itunes installed already |
21:30.43 | rev|lib | on a real PC |
21:30.45 | rev|lib | and then copying it |
21:31.05 | Reddog | is there a trial version floating around by any chance? |
21:31.27 | rev|lib | trial of what? |
21:31.34 | rev|lib | itunes is free |
21:31.42 | Reddog | oh.. is it? |
21:31.46 | Reddog | i don't follow itunes |
21:31.47 | rev|lib | of course it is |
21:32.14 | Reddog | itunes.com? |
21:32.30 | rev|lib | http://apple.com/itunes/ |
21:32.42 | rev|lib | though itunes.com works too |
21:33.45 | Reddog | heh, kk |
21:34.34 | rev|lib | anyone know of any good for-sale boards for zauruses? |
21:34.51 | MG_Tak | for-sale boards? |
21:35.03 | MEME|work | MG_Tak, i have win2k licenses i've never user |
21:35.04 | Reddog | ebay :P |

23:26.13 | Luke-Jr | W8TVI: won't that drain batteries? |
23:27.30 | Luke-Jr | who don't they make the entire bottom cover a battery? =p |
23:27.32 | Luke-Jr | why* |
23:29.04 | Disconnect | Luke-Jr: cuz custom batteries are -expensive-. I suspect the Z batteries are mostly off-the-shelf. (but yah, a great addon for the c7x0 would be a back cover like the current 'large' one but stuffed with batteries..) |
23:30.46 | Luke-Jr | ... where can you get those off the shelf?? |
23:31.06 | treke|laptop | Luke-Jr: from a battery supplier? |
23:31.22 | Luke-Jr | like who? |
23:31.25 | Luke-Jr | I've never seen those |
23:31.34 | treke|laptop | Luke-Jr: whoever makes them |
23:31.56 | Luke-Jr | sigh |
23:32.12 | Disconnect | Luke-Jr: likely its a semi-standard 'shell' with custom printing and standard packs inside. |
23:32.32 | Luke-Jr | o |
23:32.49 | raduga | luke:jr Bob's Boffo Battery Bungalow |
23:32.57 | raduga | they make pretty much everything |
23:33.21 | Luke-Jr | u serious? |
