| 02:01.06 | BitWraith | can anybody here confirm or deny that the recent regressions in power management fixed the zaurus suspend issues? |
| 02:02.25 | BitWraith | I was going to do some other tweaks on the zaurus and if you guys think it's a good plan I'll build a newer kernel while I'm at it |

| 22:36.24 | Varthall | I have received today my OTG USB cable <3 |
| 22:36.46 | Varthall | ordered it from Hong Kong, arrived in Italy after one month |
| 22:37.03 | nox- | moin BitWraith Varthall |
| 22:37.17 | Varthall | too bad Cacko doesn't support it out of the box |
| 22:37.19 | Varthall | hi nox |
| 22:37.33 | BitWraith | Varthall, does modprobe ohci-hcd help? |
| 22:37.43 | Varthall | I'll try now |
| 22:37.56 | BitWraith | you might have to modprobe -r the gadget stuff first |
| 22:39.11 | Varthall | can't locate module ohci-hcd |
| 22:39.31 | BitWraith | that's wierd |
| 22:39.40 | Varthall | I guess some third party ipkg will be required to be installed |
| 22:40.26 | BitWraith | Varthall, where did you find the host adapter? and what are you connecting to it? |
| 22:40.35 | Varthall | I will try under Ubuntu once I'll install it |
| 22:40.45 | Varthall | on an online shop on Ebay |
| 22:40.58 | BitWraith | good luck with that, I haven't got ubuntu working on my zaurus yet... |
| 22:41.14 | Varthall | I'm trying to make it see an usb pen |
| 22:41.39 | BitWraith | what does dmesg tell you? |
| 22:41.45 | Varthall | if I will not manage to install it as well, I'll switch to Debian |
| 22:42.27 | Varthall | no reaction |
| 22:42.38 | Varthall | no changes at all if I plug and unplug it |
| 22:43.05 | BitWraith | I've had good experiences with pdaxrom, although I have yet to find ANY distro (including pdax) with as many packages as I am looking for |
| 22:43.26 | Varthall | the USB connectors tabs seem to be of the right color - black o nthe mini usb side and white on the USB one |
| 22:44.23 | Varthall | I have used pdaxii for a long time, I have switched back to Cacko since I missed its PDA programs |
| 22:44.43 | Varthall | but I also miss the power of pdaxii :) |
| 22:48.32 | BitWraith | the only distro I have ever used that could OC the terrier device without crashing was a version of pdaxrom |
| 22:50.31 | BitWraith | at least the only one that had a 2.6 kernel... I don't remember off the top of my head how many older distros that might have worked with |
| 22:50.42 | BitWraith | maybe openzaurus |
| 22:51.54 | BitWraith | Varthall, what do you get from uname -a? |
| 22:52.24 | BitWraith | I'm only interested in the version, so don't bother typing the rest |
| 22:53.10 | BitWraith | uname -r actually |
| 23:01.41 | Varthall | 2.4.20 |
| 23:01.51 | BitWraith | if the version is recent (2.6.29 and above) try rebooting the device... I've had USB problems with new kernels myself |
| 23:01.55 | BitWraith | ah, nevermind htne |
| 23:01.57 | BitWraith | then* |
| 23:02.10 | Varthall | cacko's kernel is known to be ancient :) |
| 23:02.39 | BitWraith | then you *might* have the opposite problem... try a newer distro. ;-D |
| 23:02.41 | BitWraith | lol jk |
| 23:02.59 | Varthall | hehe good idea :) |
| 23:03.31 | BitWraith | have you tried kexecboot? |
| 23:03.54 | Varthall | not yet, I'm collecting all the docs about it |
| 23:04.06 | BitWraith | you can set up a whole bunch of distros on SD or CF carsd if you want, and boot into them using a GUI to pick one |
| 23:04.11 | Varthall | looks like all the info on how to install it is scattered arounf oesf's forum |
| 23:04.13 | BitWraith | I'm using it on my terrier |
| 23:05.14 | BitWraith | Installing it isn't such a big deal, as logn as you can get the files for it |
| 23:05.24 | BitWraith | you flahs it like you would any other distro |
| 23:05.51 | BitWraith | then you unpack the root filesystem of your arbitrary distro somewhere and set up bootloader files in /boot much like you owuld for grub or lilo |
| 23:05.58 | Varthall | first thing I'll have to figure out is which files I need to backup first |
| 23:06.22 | Varthall | I have lots of items in "To Do" which I don't want to lose |
| 23:06.33 | Varthall | I'll see where does it saves its data |
| 23:06.38 | BitWraith | make sure you have at least one distro on SD that is bootable before you flash it, or you will have nothing to use until you get an SD writer out ;-) |
| 23:06.55 | Varthall | ok, good advice |
| 23:07.06 | BitWraith | I used poky linux |
| 23:07.26 | Varthall | never heard it.. is it any good? |
| 23:07.27 | BitWraith | I'll be back later. Good luck. :-) |
| 23:07.30 | Varthall | ty :) |
| 23:08.23 | BitWraith | it's not very impressive, but at least it works and it supports the new ABI so you can use it to maintain recent installs |
| 23:08.36 | BitWraith | I needed it to install gentoo |
| 23:09.00 | Varthall | ok |
