15:54.37 | CosmicPenguin | But the entire motherboard of the WebPal is enclosed in a metal case, |
15:54.49 | CosmicPenguin | So its going to be a bit of mechanical engineering to get everything to work right |
15:55.11 | CosmicPenguin | I guess we could leave the top sheld off. That shouldn't leak *too* much radation |
15:56.20 | CosmicPenguin | Better than punching a hole through metal to get at the IDE pins and what not |

16:34.57 | sorphin | CosmicPenguin: mine does good pics, even for a 1.3 meg |
16:35.00 | TomW | uh |
16:35.18 | CosmicPenguin | Nothing beats a good ol' 35 mm for superior picture taking and color depth |
16:35.29 | CosmicPenguin | and if I ever want a washed out copy of my pictures, I've got a scanner |
16:36.03 | CosmicPenguin | But hey, thats just me. |
16:36.33 | CosmicPenguin | Anyway, the WebPal comes encased in a plastic shell, and then in a metal shell that completely contains the motherboard |
16:37.17 | CosmicPenguin | One side features the smartcard, IR sensor and 3 LEDs, while the back has all the gozouttas for the video |
16:38.28 | CosmicPenguin | The ISA connects to the mother board through a seperate dongle with two ISA slots |
16:39.15 | CosmicPenguin | My 3Com 509 inserted ok, but my model had a BNC adapter that didn't quite fit the smaller than standard hole in the back of the device |
16:39.26 | CosmicPenguin | But after I removed the tab from the top, it worked out ok. |
16:44.08 | CosmicPenguin | I didn't get a chance to plug it in though |
16:44.31 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: look like any additional headers connected to the cpu? |
16:45.50 | CosmicPenguin | prpplague: other than IDE and floppy, none that were populated |
16:46.36 | CosmicPenguin | My model had the 665 SuperIO |

16:48.15 | CosmicPenguin | Anyway, due to the constraints within the case, it might be nice to get CF <-> IDE dongles and RS232 dongles that have cables so we can run them outside of the metal case |

20:30.19 | andersee | BZFlag: nothing. On some systems a cron job does. But generally speaking, nothing. |
20:31.08 | BZFlag | I thought the kernel had an autoclean timeout someplace? |
20:31.41 | andersee | BZFlag: nope |

20:33.30 | BZFlag | sheesh. ;-) |
20:37.47 | BZFlag | andersee: rmmod -a when fat and vfat are install would not rmmod fat right? |
20:38.16 | BZFlag | rmmod needs the -r to do that? |
20:38.28 | andersee | yup |
20:41.41 | andersee | hmm |
20:41.55 | andersee | Actually I think rmmod -a would be sufficient |
20:42.37 | BZFlag | if I modprobe vfat, then fat gets loaded. if I rmmod -a, vfat goes, but fat stays. next rmmod -a gets fat. |
20:42.52 | BZFlag | could be worse on other modules. |
20:43.19 | BZFlag | I think I'll work up a rmmod patch that loops till it can't unload anything. k? |
20:43.33 | BZFlag | only on -a -r though. |
20:43.52 | BZFlag | or should -a just do the "Right Thing" on bb ? |
20:50.55 | Lethal | rmmod -a will wipe out autoclean stuff, if theres dependancies just run it a few times ;P |
20:57.12 | BZFlag | Lethal: agreed, but a -a would insure it was only run one more time than needed. |
20:57.41 | BZFlag | well, tried. only run once. ;-) |
20:58.44 | BZFlag | opinions anyone on -a doing -a -r ? (oh, /me meant -r would insure above) |
20:59.14 | BZFlag | I don't see the point in doing a -a without a -r myself. |
21:12.30 | BZFlag | hmm. it would probably mean moving my_query_module someplace where rmmod can see it too. |

21:18.14 | Lethal | I don't think linux does it that way though |

21:25.43 | BZFlag | so it gets freed on exit() yes? so if lsmod is used as a builtin, the shell will grow and grow? |
21:26.47 | Lethal | why would exit() free it? |
21:26.47 | Lethal | exit() will clean up fd's, but not allocations AFAIK. |

21:26.49 | Lethal | you could always do an atexit() handler to free() up any xmalloc() remnants. |
21:26.49 | Lethal | as long as you don't care about strict posix ;P |
21:31.19 | BZFlag | the point is that in bb I think there is an option to turn all bb commands into builtins and if that was the case, then the memory would not get freed. |

21:47.25 | sorphin | noe more ARM |
21:47.28 | sorphin | no even |
21:47.30 | Lethal | which one? |
21:47.33 | Lethal | xscale is still ARM |
21:47.36 | Lethal | its ARM 5 derived |
21:47.36 | sorphin | heh |
21:47.41 | Lethal | still has broken caches |
21:47.55 | Lethal | and a fucked performance counter + MMU to go along |
21:47.56 | sorphin | The SL-5600 uses a 400MHz Intel XScale processor, while the previous model uses a 206 MHz StrongARM. It will have a total of 96MB of memory, made up of 32MB SDRAM and 64MB of protected Flash, which is secure memory for storing files and applications. |
21:47.56 | sorphin | Its screen is a reflective TFT LCD with a front light. This 320 by 240 pixel display is 3.5 inches when measured diagonally and supports 65,536 colors. |
21:47.56 | sorphin | Like its predecessor, the SL-5600 has a bottom piece that slides to expose a small keyboard. It also has a CompactFlash slot and a SD/MMC slot. It includes a 1700 mA Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery that is removable. It also has a speaker and microphone with a stereo headphone jack. |
21:48.05 | Lethal | great |
21:48.07 | Lethal | so which xscale? :P |
21:48.13 | kergoth | Lethal: thats the real question |
21:48.21 | andersee | Lethal: Well, not exit(), but the _exit(2) syscall causes the kernel to cleanup whatever mess the process leaves behind. So by skipping the cleanup in busybox, we can save some bytes, and the kernel cleans up for us. |

21:56.30 | Lethal | yeah. now if only someone would ship a current SH pda, I'd buy that ;P |
21:56.36 | sorphin | Lethal: i don't spend 800 on a toy like this ;p |
21:57.01 | sorphin | bad enough spending 500 on a switch ;p |
21:57.09 | andersee | Lethal: someone should make a handheld dreamcast |
21:57.10 | BZFlag | andersee: xmalloc in lsmod module_names does not get freed. |
21:57.12 | andersee | Lethal: ;-) |
21:57.25 | Lethal | andersee, uh.. no.. maple sucks ass :P |
21:57.28 | BZFlag | andersee: kaii is close, but sh3 not sh4 =( |
21:57.45 | Lethal | sh4 or sh5 in a pda would be nice though |
21:57.56 | Lethal | even HP's old jornada stuff is all SH-3 |
21:58.10 | Lethal | SH-3 is cool and all. but combined I & D has just got to go :P |
21:58.24 | BZFlag | it would be the first pda that bzflag could run on. ;-) |
21:58.26 | andersee | BZFlag: Hmm. Free it within an #ifdef CONFIG_FEATURE_CLEAN_UP |
21:58.38 | Lethal | BZFlag, won't run on SH-3? |
21:58.47 | Lethal | BZFlag, how about SMP SH-2? ;P |
21:58.55 | andersee | BZFlag: But memory leaks are default behavior... Most of the time there is no need to free things |
21:59.02 | sorphin | Lethal: smp is overrated |
21:59.04 | BZFlag | andersee: does CONFIG_FEATURE_CLEAN_UP get defined if commands as builtins then? |
21:59.07 | Lethal | sorphin, so is the sh-3 ;P |
21:59.15 | andersee | BZFlag: no, but it should |
21:59.23 | sorphin | Lethal: i wouldn't know.. i only have one SH device, my dreamcast ;p |
21:59.36 | Lethal | sorphin, dreamcast was fun to port linux to :P |
21:59.49 | sorphin | Lethal: i'll take your word for it |
21:59.58 | Lethal | except for maple |
22:00.01 | Lethal | thats just uncalled for |
22:00.02 | Lethal | :P |
22:00.10 | prpplague | Lethal: the reason we would pay that amount for the c700 is we need the 640x480 display for legacy apps |
22:00.33 | Lethal | prpplague, thats what virt res + a slider is for ;P |
22:01.14 | prpplague | Lethal: doesn't work well for end (l)users |
22:01.26 | sorphin | nope |
22:01.28 | sorphin | not 8000 |
22:01.29 | sorphin | erm |
22:01.30 | sorphin | 800 |
22:01.37 | sorphin | SL-C700 Sharp Zaurus SL-C700 699.00 - |
22:01.45 | Lethal | prpplague, bundle a cluebat with it? :P |
22:01.58 | sorphin | so ner :P |
22:02.11 | sorphin | ~lart lethal |
22:02.24 | Lethal | bah |
22:02.42 | sorphin | 699 is slightly better, but not good enough ;p |
22:02.43 | prpplague | Lethal: trust me, our customers are bottom of the barrel, they don't mind paying awhole lot more if it be just a little be simpler |
22:02.57 | sorphin | btw |
22:02.59 | Lethal | prpplague, thats typical. |
22:03.05 | sorphin | that 699 is on dynamism |
22:03.23 | Lethal | the clueful customer is a much overhyped myth :P |
22:03.48 | prpplague | sorphin: alot better than the $2900 for this - http://home.intermec.com/eprise/main/Intermec/Content/Products/Products_ShowDetail?section=Products&Product=CMPTR6651&Category=CMPTR&Family=CMPTR2 |
22:04.01 | sorphin | heh |
22:04.46 | sorphin | prpplague: rip |
22:04.47 | sorphin | off |
22:05.36 | Lethal | wow, context switching on mmuless rules ;P |
22:06.24 | Lethal | andersee, I almost have the DC booting with the MMU turned off ;P |
22:06.31 | andersee | Lethal: :-) |
22:06.38 | sorphin | heh |
22:06.40 | sorphin | why? :P |
22:06.42 | andersee | Lethal: Faster? |
22:06.53 | MonMotha | andersee: you see my response to your question regarding my uClibc "problems"? |
22:07.04 | Lethal | sorphin, want to get the mmuless stuff taken care of so I know that shit works before I start hacking on the saturn port ;P |
22:07.11 | sorphin | heh |
22:07.17 | prpplague | Lethal: DC? Diskless Client? |
22:07.20 | sorphin | no |
22:07.21 | Lethal | andersee, a lot of stuff is. |
22:07.22 | sorphin | dreamcast |
22:07.23 | sorphin | :P |
22:07.34 | andersee | MonMotha: yup, saw it |
22:07.37 | Lethal | andersee, tlb flushing works out to a BUG() ;P |
22:07.39 | sorphin | ~rlart |
22:07.43 | MonMotha | andersee: k |
22:07.54 | sorphin | damn |
22:07.56 | sorphin | missed |
22:08.06 | Lethal | about the only real performance hit left on it is periodic flushing to deal with aliasing issues |
22:08.20 | Russ|werk | prpplague: when does ups actually stop by to scan stuff? |
22:08.31 | Lethal | and its not stupid like XScale which likes to keep its cache enable stuff in the page tables ;P |
22:08.33 | sorphin | Russ|werk: eh? |
22:08.50 | Lethal | so we can sanely tear down the page tables and still read/write the CCR |
22:08.51 | sorphin | you're STILL waiting for that nonexistant tracking info? ;) |
22:09.04 | prpplague | Russ|werk: in about 30 minutes |
22:09.13 | sorphin | wow |
22:09.16 | andersee | BZFlag: - return addgroup(GROUP_FILE, group, gid, user); |
22:09.16 | andersee | + return addgroup(group_file, group, gid, user); |
22:09.18 | andersee | thx |
22:09.19 | Russ|werk | I have a number now...Its just not in the ups database yet |
22:09.21 | sorphin | its actually gonna ship ;) |
22:09.23 | andersee | My bad |
22:10.00 | Lethal | then after SMP works on SH-2, will just have to prod ST into releasing smp stuff ;P |
22:10.37 | sorphin | umm.. right |
22:11.10 | Lethal | frequency scaling should be interesting too, especially if the slave runs at a different speed then the master. |
22:11.43 | Lethal | then theres just the notifier block updates for loops_per_jiffy changes for additional overhead. |
22:12.04 | Lethal | which isn't too expensive |
22:14.39 | BZFlag | andersee: yep, figured it was an oversight. |
22:14.48 | Lethal | sorphin, thanks for your support ;P |
22:15.10 | sorphin | of course :P |
22:15.16 | BZFlag | Lethal: that's AMP then no? |
22:15.40 | Lethal | BZFlag, nah. frequency scaling is just something thats possible per-CPU. normally they run at the same speed. |
22:15.59 | Lethal | its not required to be though |
22:16.05 | BZFlag | andersee: opinion on rmmod -a acting like -r by default? |
22:16.12 | Lethal | not that theres actually much point in slowing it down any |
22:16.20 | Lethal | the SH7604 isn't that fast to begin with |
22:16.20 | Russ|werk | if there is not enough load for two cpu's, I can see scaling the other cpu down to conseve power |
22:16.35 | BZFlag | Lethal: battery power? (me imagines that smp pda) |
22:16.46 | Lethal | Russ|werk, the second one never needs to be spun up. if theres only work on one processor, the second one can be kicked offline and bootstrapped again later when needed. |
22:17.11 | Lethal | BZFlag, then your better off turning the second processor off and kicking your first one into power-save ;P |
22:17.15 | BZFlag | did you see the kernel patches to turn cpus on and off at runtime? |
22:17.26 | Lethal | I saw the hotplug stuff |
22:17.46 | Lethal | turning the slave off and on isn't an issue |
22:17.47 | BZFlag | cool cool. that was the only thing I missed about sco. |
22:17.52 | Lethal | with the master however, thats an issue :P |
22:18.09 | Russ|werk | maybe if you have a pda that has a second processor thats *just* fast enough to play an mp3 with mad |
22:18.10 | *** part/#elinux sorphin (sorphin@adsl-64-218-79-41.dsl.stlsmo.swbell.net) |
22:18.34 | Lethal | all you do for smp is just hand off an entry point to the slave cpu anyways, that can be cleared and it can be put into suspend or whatever |
22:18.36 | andersee | BZFlag: It is a behavior defference from modutils. But then again, I suppose that could be a argument that rmmod -a is broken... Not strong feeling either way. I certainly don't see how it could hurt anything if you change it... And it may even help some apps. |
22:18.41 | BZFlag | or do ipsec or do voip coding etc. |
22:19.08 | Lethal | I'll just have to hack SH-2 + SMP support into my cpufreq driver for SH |
22:23.32 | BZFlag | hmm. with applets always win I run ./busybox sh and then try ./busybox lsmod and I get the help text. |
22:24.09 | BZFlag | infact ./busybox <anything> get's the help text. |
22:24.25 | BZFlag | does busybox think busybox is a builtin too? |
22:26.12 | BZFlag | I guess that follows. just unexpected. |
22:30.33 | BZFlag | andersee: taking time off next week == working on busybox? ;-) |
22:34.39 | andersee | BZFlag: hehe |
22:34.50 | andersee | BZFlag: I'm a loser, what can I say |
22:37.49 | BZFlag | with CONFIG_FEATURE_SH_STANDALONE_SHELL is there an exec/fork/spawn for applets? ie: would they get cleaned by the kernel? |
22:38.16 | BZFlag | andersee: you planning on dropping by tonight? |
22:39.04 | BZFlag | keri has a concert so I'll head off to that about 6ish |
22:43.32 | andersee | BZFlag: What time will you be around? I'd not be able to drop by till around 9ish |
22:44.32 | andersee | BZFlag: My wife is going to stay the night at her sister's place. I'll be coming home since I have some committments in the morning. But I'll be heading back to pick her and the kids up tomorrow afternoon. |
22:44.53 | andersee | BZFlag: So if 9 is too late, I can swing by tomorrow afternoon. |
22:46.57 | BZFlag | don't know when I'll get home. asking keri for a best guess... |
22:48.39 | BZFlag | she expects we'll be home by 9 or 9:30 at the latest. I'll be hacking ;-) drop by at 9:30? |
22:51.36 | prpplague | kergoth: well, looks like we are going ahead with the printserver project |
22:52.17 | prpplague | kergoth: i've gotten approval for uclinux port to net+50 |
22:53.56 | prpplague | kergoth: shall i setup cvs access for ya? |
22:55.41 | kergoth | prpplague: certainly |
22:56.46 | prpplague | kergoth: ok password is: ihavetheplague |
22:56.55 | prpplague | kergoth: lol, jk |
22:56.59 | kergoth | lol |
22:57.25 | andersee | BZFlag: k, its a plan then |
22:57.29 | kergoth | its so dead here today |
22:59.46 | BZFlag | ~rinsult |
22:59.48 | | go stick ibot's head in a pig, bzflag. |
23:00.07 | kergoth | hmm |
23:00.24 | BZFlag | ~rinsult |
23:00.39 | BZFlag | that was interesting. |
23:00.57 | kergoth | indeed. |
23:05.16 | CosmicPenguin | Later folks - have fun with your webpals! |
23:10.47 | prpplague | andersee: is there a "uclinux howto for morons"? |
23:11.16 | Lethal | there's a howto? |
23:15.37 | Lethal | hum. anyone done discontig on uclinux before? |
23:17.05 | Lethal | pg_data_t looks relatively hostile to mmuless. especially w/ the pfn references. |
23:17.28 | kergoth | Lethal: what arch are you working with there, out of curiosity? |
23:18.02 | Lethal | kergoth, SH. an SH7604 (SH-2) in particular. |
23:18.11 | kergoth | ah |
23:19.22 | Lethal | I guess I could manually fill in the boot node stuff and ignore the pfn stuff |
23:25.33 | Lethal | bah. looks like I'll have to rewrite setup_arch(). fun. |
23:51.17 | sieve | later all |
