03:16.41glytchbinary(:
03:18.41kergothi hope you used usbnet, not usbdnet
03:18.43kergoth:)
03:19.57glytchbinarywell naturally i used usbdnet
03:20.01glytchbinarywhats the problem with it?
03:20.37kergothif you're lucky it'll randomly lose connectivity
03:20.43kergothif you arent, it'll randomly panic your machine.
03:20.50glytchbinarydamnit...
03:20.50kergoththanks lineo!
03:20.52glytchbinary(:
03:20.55kergothjust grab 2.4.20-rc
03:20.59kergothit supports the Z in usbnet out of the box
03:21.03glytchbinaryin a minute, i wanna play around a bit first
03:21.07kergothor swipe usbnet.c from it and stuff it into 2.4.20
03:21.22glytchbinaryits alot easier to ssh into the z to do things instead of using the tiny keyboard
03:21.30kergothyep
03:21.34glytchbinarybut that tiny keyboard is usually alot better than on screen keyboards
03:21.41glytchbinaryso it really has an advantage over other pda's
03:22.16kergothglytchbinary: i'll have to show you the c700 when I get down there
03:22.19kergothglytchbinary: its pretty smooth :)
03:22.25glytchbinaryyou got a c700?
03:22.27glytchbinarynice
03:22.53glytchbinaryyou know i was all wanting the 5600 instead of the 5500 because i was worried about speed, this 5000 tim let me borrow is just fine..
03:22.58kergothglytchbinary: i brought it down as a demo of OZ, since its my experience in OZ that got me hired
03:23.02kergothheheh
03:23.10glytchbinary(:
03:23.11kergoth5600 wont be much faster, if it is at all
03:23.15glytchbinarykergoth: what team?
03:23.39kergothglytchbinary: OS group, linux development, tim's my boss (one of em anyay)
03:23.46glytchbinaryk
03:24.23glytchbinaryi'll be processing all of your test output with pretty scripts
03:24.29kergothfun
03:25.41glytchbinaryheh, the zuarus just went funny....
03:27.50glytchbinaryshucks
03:28.00glytchbinaryno exporting the z's display to my desktop eh? (:
03:29.29kergothqt/e != X
03:29.44glytchbinarythere's got to be a way..
03:29.50glytchbinaryi mean, a port of qt/e to x (:
03:30.25kergothuh, no.
03:30.29kergothif you want qt in X, use qt/x11
03:30.34*** part/#elinux GPSFan (~kenm@65.114.238.130)
03:30.47kergothopie apps can be made to link against and run using qt/x11, on an x server, rather than on qt/e
03:30.51kergothits a config option in the buildsystem.
03:31.12glytchbinarywell i want to be able to ssh to the zaurus and display gui apps locally like x11 apps
03:31.17glytchbinaryi'm going to investigate
03:31.23glytchbinaryand install usbnet
03:31.38kergothrun apps *on* the z using hte z's gui? theres nothing mystical about that, and theres nothing network transparent about that
03:32.16glytchbinaryno no
03:32.27glytchbinaryssh to zaurus, export the display back to my desktop, and run gui apps
03:32.49kergothqt/e has _zero_ network transparency
03:32.52kergothif you want that, install X
03:32.56glytchbinaryshucks
03:33.03glytchbinaryis x slower than qt/e on the z ?
03:33.11kergothits not X thats the problem
03:33.17kergothits having to drop numerous toolkits on top of it
03:33.22glytchbinaryyeah...
03:33.27glytchbinarynevermind
03:33.39kergothGPE works quite well
03:34.06glytchbinarycan i update oz over the usb net ? instead of using a flash card
03:34.18kergothyou can install packages over http/ftp
03:34.26kergothand OZ is simply packages, with the exception of the kernel
03:34.33glytchbinaryalright
03:34.39glytchbinaryi should build my kernel with usbnet too
03:34.46glytchbinaryi dont know if usbdnet is the problem
03:34.50glytchbinarybut things keep messing up
03:37.52chouimatkergoth: vnc
03:40.20chouimat|Zzzzznight
03:40.55glytchbinaryand suddenly the usbnetwork doesn't work
03:41.17glytchbinaryjeez kergoth , could have warned me about usbdnet man..
03:41.31chouimat|Zzzzzglytchbinary: use usbnet
03:41.38kergothhehe
03:41.42kergothi didnt know you were workin on it
03:42.15glytchbinarymaybe i'll get brave and run 2.5.x ( :
03:42.31kergothyeah that includes z support too
03:42.38kergoth2.5 is getting usable
03:42.40glytchbinaryyou said 2.4.20 did ?
03:42.47kergoth2.4.21-rc does
03:42.49kergoth2.4.20 doesnt
03:43.04kergothyou can swipe usbnet.c from 2.4.21-rc and drop it into 2.4.20 if you dont want to run a prerelease
03:43.04glytchbinaryi'll go for 2.5.x
03:43.05glytchbinarywish me luck
03:43.24chouimat|Zzzzzglytchbinary: bye
03:43.30kergothhave fun
03:43.45glytchbinarywow...
03:43.48glytchbinarya qt kernel config
03:45.03glytchbinaryspiffy, and software suspend built in
03:45.21glytchbinarythe swsusp project is doing a decent job of it
03:45.43kergothyup
03:49.46glytchbinaryafter this i need to get irda working with it on my laptop so i can network over that

14:18.18sjhillhi prpplague
14:18.27sjhilllots of stuff
14:18.31sjhillmips, gdb, sh3, sh4
14:18.52sjhill*blush* i'm a code whore....oh the same of it all
14:18.57sjhills/same/shame/
14:19.28prpplaguesjhill: ya atleast your doing something fun......server side stuff gets sooooooo boring
14:21.00sjhill*nod*
14:21.29sjhillit has been very stressful...i need this long weekend to recover
14:22.05sjhillmy new wife just picked up a new cocker spaniel puppy yesterday....i kicked her and the puppy out of the bedroom last night...i needed sleep...no puppy whining
14:22.23prpplaguesjhill: lol
14:22.36prpplaguesjhill:  no whinning? was that from the puppy or the wife?
14:24.06jnorkHe said "puppy whining."
14:24.37TomWjnork: apparently, you've never been married?
14:24.49TomW;)
14:24.52jnorkApparently. But he DID say "puppy whining."
14:25.17sjhillthe puppy was whining
14:25.31sjhillwomen don't whine much...nagging...that's another story
14:25.31TomWAnyone know of a better touch screen controller chip than the Harris ADS7846?
14:25.42sjhillTomW: UCB1xxx
14:25.45sjhillphilips
14:25.56TomWsjhill: the ucb1200 is EOL
14:26.00sjhillucb1300
14:26.04TomWk
14:26.14TomWsjhill: thanks
14:26.22sjhill*nod*
14:26.34TomWsjhill: same programming as the 1200?
14:27.03sjhillTomW: http://www-us.semiconductors.philips.com/pip/UCB1300BE.html
14:27.07sjhillpretty much i believe
14:27.15sjhilllinux drivers exist already
14:27.35TomWthat is what is important! heh
14:27.56TomWI'm getting lazy in my old age...
14:28.08prpplagueTomW: ya there are several TI chips that are nice
14:28.16sjhillhttp://www.hampshiretouch.com/chips.htm
14:28.30prpplagueTomW: just need ts only?
14:28.31sjhillhttp://focus.ti.com/docs/prod/productfolder.jhtml?genericPartNumber=TSC2003
14:28.40TomWprpplague: yes, only ts
14:28.43sjhillthat should make your brain mushy for a little while
14:28.56TomWsjhill: have to wake it up first.
14:29.19TomWEarl Grey is not kick starting my brain this AM
14:29.39sjhillTomW: the TI one is 16 tsop...nice little thing
14:30.03sjhillucb1300 has audio codecs which might be overkill
14:30.15jnorkHere, TomW, try some of mine.
14:30.51TomWyeah, I have no need for the codecs
14:31.11sjhillthe hampshire one has very high resolution...but i don't know your needs
14:31.24jnorkIt's a mix of Assam and Keemun teas called Malachi McCormick's Decent Tea. Good stuff.
14:31.44TomWbut, it will go on one of the Tux CPU cards, so I'll stick with the ucb1300 this time.  I will bookmark the tsc2003 for later consideration.
14:32.33TomWsjhill: the problem that I always seem to have with ts controllers is the damned jitter from external electronics noise.
14:32.46sjhillah
14:33.19TomWthis time, it will be a an integrated lcd + ts.  I had been using seperate units, maybe the bonding of the two is quieter?
14:34.11TomWthanks to Dave, I will be using the $99 special from earthlcd.com for this quickie project.
14:34.21prpplagueTomW: np
14:35.47TomWprpplague: I'm going to attempt to replace that POS app today with an X app of my own.  See just how the elographics ts will work with it.
14:36.15TomWprpplague: the company is in fits that I broke into / got a root login to the POS...
14:36.38TomWthey thought that it was hardened against people like me.  heh
14:36.52prpplagueTomW: lol
14:37.02jnorkOh well... more of this for me, then.
14:37.15TomW.. except, they didn't password protect the lilo
14:37.18prpplagueTomW: i found that the signature capture devices at worst buy still have the default config password on them
14:37.45sorphinprpplague: oh, those things are POS's literally
14:38.09sorphin1/2 of them when you sign it's below the line, and one no matter what you signed it was all over the place :P
14:40.41TomWI see that digikey has the TI tsc2003 chip, is there a linux driver for it?
14:42.46prpplagueTomW: i talked to rmk about that a couple months ago
14:42.51sjhillHi Tim!
14:43.10prpplagueTomW: iirc he said there was a sa based board with the drive for the 2003 chip
14:43.15sorphinTimRiker: you non-loyalist you ;)
14:44.00TomWprpplague: thanks, will check out Russell's stuff.
14:44.00sjhillsorphin: hey lackey

14:44.39TimRikersorphin: won't happen.
14:44.48prpplagueTomW: i also think there is some info on the TI site
14:46.06sjhillthekernel: do you hack on the linux kernel?
14:49.26prpplagueTomW: the ads7846 wasn't your cup of tea? lol
14:50.01prpplagueTomW: you might think about using it if your short on time
14:50.07TomWno, We got it working okay under uClinux, but, I wasn't too happy with using it.
14:50.19prpplagueTomW: ahh
14:50.25prpplagueTomW: http://focus.ti.com/docs/apps/catalog/resources/appnoteabstract.jhtml?abstractName=sbaa070
14:50.40prpplagueTomW: just some good notes there on working with the sa-11x0
14:51.04TomWprpplague: I have to order some stuff from Digikey & JameCo to do this project, also, I need a quickie PCB from Alberta Printed Circuits to mount the darned FPC connector.
14:51.43prpplagueTomW: where did you find the fpc stuff?
14:51.46TomWfortunately, Digikey has the 0.5 mm jumper cables.
14:52.02TomWprpplague: various lengths up to about 10"
14:52.34TomWprpplague: just go to Digikey.com and inter "flat flex" into the search
14:52.45TomWs/inter/enter/
14:52.54prpplagueTomW: cool, i need some as well for the lcd's i have
14:53.32TomWprpplague: the connectors I got as samples from Molex, P/N: 0527462090
14:55.07TomWprpplague: I'll put a 3.3v switching regulator (MAX-728 or so) on the pcb, the ts controller + the lcd connnector, then some 34 pin box headers to plug it into the Tux CPU.
14:55.22prpplagueTomW: thats what i was about to ask
14:55.30TomWshould be a 4" x 3" PCB
14:55.41prpplagueTomW: no ttl for the serial port?
14:55.42TomW< $100 at APC
14:55.58TomWoh, forgot about that! yeah
14:56.32prpplagueTomW: whats the possibility of me adding one to your order?
14:56.39TomWI've got 5 of the Tux units laying around here, so I'll cannabalize one of them.
14:56.59TomWprpplague: could do that, I'll contact you before I order the pcb
14:57.05prpplagueTomW: ok thanks
14:57.09TomWnp
14:57.35prpplagueTomW: one other questions, even though you not using all the lines on the header, will you brings the connections out to solder pads?
14:57.40mallumhey ppl
14:57.46TomWI'll stick the whole thing into an aluminum minibox
14:57.47prpplaguemallum: hey dude
14:57.50sorphinah, so tomw was the tux hoarder
14:57.55sorphinmallum: allo mr matchbox
14:57.59mallumhehe
14:58.08prpplaguemallum: hows life in the UK today?
14:58.18mallumyeah OK, Im off to spain in a few days
14:58.38prpplagueTomW: or does that add too much time or cost to the board?
14:58.41TomWprpplague: if there is enough room, I'll bring a bunch of stuff out to a 0.1" 3M header conn.
14:58.43prpplaguemallum: cool
14:58.57prpplagueTomW: ok, thanks
14:58.57mallumI finally got my epia board working nice with the TV :-) so have been getting mb running nice as a kind of media box watching bittorrented 24 episodes :-))
14:59.10TomWfor $99 on that lcd, it will be a nice cheap system
14:59.19prpplagueTomW: agreed
14:59.32mallumsorphin: you have xbox ?
14:59.41sorphinheh, $99 for an LCD eh? what res? :P
14:59.44sorphinmallum: indeed
14:59.51mallumsorphin: you have it chipped ?
15:00.03sorphinyup
15:00.12TomWprpplague: something I can show one of my current customers, he wants to add a color LCD to his product.  Might as well show him something to make him drool!  :)
15:00.18mallumsorphin: cool, I just got mine done too :-)
15:00.25sorphinmallum: which chip?
15:00.32mallumsorphin: havn't tested it yet ... what should I check out ?
15:00.50mallumsorphin: not sure, a man came round took it away came back a few hours later I handhed him cash
15:00.56sorphinheh
15:01.02sorphinmallum: you brits worry me ;)
15:01.10TomWprpplague: I was thinking of adding the J602 connector as well and the circuitry for the Tux IDE port so I can attach a 2.5" drive to it.
15:01.11sorphinmallum: sure your xbox still has it's internals? ;)
15:01.28mallumsorphin: yeah it was my of sid's friends brothers
15:01.34prpplagueTomW: if they wanted to go into production of something what would you use? a pxa255 chip?
15:01.43mallumsorphin: crazy hong kong guy
15:01.45TomWprpplague: too bad we cannot get anymore of those Tux's, eh?
15:01.55prpplagueTomW: ya too bad indeed
15:01.58TomWprpplague: pxa255?
15:02.10prpplagueTomW: an xscale
15:02.11mallumsorphin: so what should I go download to play on it ?
15:02.17TomWprpplague: oh
15:02.20sorphinheh
15:02.25sorphinmallum: halo :P
15:02.37prpplagueTomW: aiui the pxa255 is a good choice for replacing sa designs
15:03.23TomWprpplague: somewhere, somehow, I have to get a nice juicy project where I can end up with purchasing that Zephyrtronics BGA soldering station...
15:03.48mallumsorphin: oh yeah I heard about the halo hack thing
15:03.49TomWI only need $10K .. :/
15:04.00mallumsorphin: you have a url ?
15:04.06prpplagueTomW: that would be great
15:04.07sorphinmallum: halo hack thing? :P i jus tmeant it's a cool game

15:22.27sorphini didn't know the Z had a new rom out
15:22.52chouimatsorphin: I did a search last night and the only thing I  found was a ps/2 to gamecube adapter
15:22.53sorphinguess it snuck by since it only showed up in /.'s devel listing

19:02.07sorphinpricey bugger
19:02.22TomW`workheh, I paid over $1k for mine
19:02.27sorphinah
19:02.31TomW`worknew
19:02.50TomW`workall those programmers are costly
19:02.51sorphinTomW`work: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3416959104&category=3666
19:03.18sorphinselling a TSOP56A socket module too
19:04.04TomW`worksorphin: the modules cost $100 per, the $525 instant purchase is a good price if someone can use the unit.
19:04.35sorphin+even
19:04.50sorphinTomW`work: so i'm back to my old idea
19:04.51TomW`workit comes with a dip-48 module, it will handle most of your 0.600" & 0.300" DIP parts, the TSOP stuff you have to purchase moudules.
19:04.55sorphinfind somehting else i have w/ flash
19:05.04sorphinand wire to the 72 pin simm socket ken sent me
19:05.22sorphinthe crappy thing
19:05.28chouimat?
19:05.31sorphinis everything i have, doesn't have enough lines
19:05.42sorphinaka sub 8Mbit flash
19:05.50TomW`workyeah, me too.  all the flash I have is 8 bit.
19:05.55sorphin128K or 256K
19:06.21TomW`workI have to put an order into digikey, maybe I'll see if they have some plcc / dip 16bit flash.
19:06.40sorphinTomW`work: so we can use these dct's ;)
19:06.45TomW`workyup
19:06.54sorphinTomW`work: is there any way
19:07.00TomW`workI have paying work to do now, cannot play with DTC
19:07.04sorphineven tho this simm is layed out in 16bit
19:07.10sorphinto flash from 8bit ?
19:07.46sorphini.e. still use one of these things that i have that doesn't have all the data/addr lines this amd chip does
19:08.05sorphinand just address this amd chip in 8bit mode (since it can do 8bit apparently)
19:08.06TomW`worksorphin: we could build a blob type loader to get the image from the serial port, then program it into flash.  Same way we did the Tux.
19:08.20sorphinTomW`work: yeah
19:09.11TomW`worksorphin: then, all we have to do is go our seperate ways and develop the code for it and each of us has a downloader.  Just a dip that plugs into the DTC with blob in it and free flash space.
19:09.30sorphinTomW`work: yeah
19:09.55sorphinTomW`work: (btw *points up at his 8bit/16bit question) :)
19:10.02TomW`workprolly be only 256 / 128K, but that is something to start with.  You could then use it to build a loader to program the onboard DTC flash itself.
19:10.14TomW`worksorphin: needs to be 16 bit
19:10.20sorphindamn
19:10.52sorphinnothing i have has flash that big :P
19:10.54TomW`worktoo much trouble to use 2 eight bit devices, although it would be possible.
19:11.37TomW`worksorphin: you would have to take the binary, split it between odd/even numbered bytes into two seperate files and program them both.
19:11.49sorphinnod
19:12.18TomW`workMy EMP-30 wouldn't allow me to gang the two devices and program them both.  It is restrictive on what I can make it do.
19:12.32sorphinwhy does it *have* to be 16 bit tho? the chip is organized as 1 Mbyte of 8 bits each or 512K words of 16 bits each
19:12.59TomW`workcheck the pin that selects 8/16 bit access, how is the DTC wired?
19:13.06sorphinthis isn't the dct
19:13.14TomW`work?
19:13.15sorphinthis 8/16bit bit is the webpal
19:13.19TomW`workoh
19:13.41sorphinthe DCT will be a simpler animal :P
19:13.46sorphinsince it's not a bloody simm
19:14.08TomW`worktry cutting the trace that flips 8/16 bit mode.  IIRC, I looked to see if I could use it as an 8 bit device, the trace you have to cut is under the IC.
19:14.37sorphinwhat signal is it? remember off hand?
19:14.58TomW`worksorphin: ok, so, I guess that I could make an adaptor to adapt the webpal simm over to the 42 pin dip socket for the DTC, ...
19:15.12sorphinumm
19:15.23sorphinwhy would you do that?
19:15.38TomW`workso I could use the 16 bit simm to run the DTC
19:15.45sorphinah
19:15.50TomW`workI already can program the simms.
19:15.56sorphinTomW`work: but i can't :P
19:16.02TomW`workoh well
19:16.04sorphinhence why i'm doing what i'm doing
19:16.04TomW`workheh
19:16.15sorphinwhich brings me back to
19:16.20sorphinwhat signal is it? remember off hand?
19:16.41sorphinah
19:16.43sorphinnevermind
19:16.48sorphinit's BYTE
19:16.57sorphinw/ the line
19:17.11TomW`workmaybe make a PCB that has the 42 pin socket header on it, and a 72 pin socket.  That way, the pcb can be plugged into the DTC boot prom socket and the simm into it's own socket of the pcb..
19:17.24TomW`workthat way, I can do rapid changes to the simm contents.
19:17.32sorphinTomW`work: ok, staying on the non dct side for a second
19:17.34TomW`worksorphin: yeah, BYTE
19:17.45sorphinTomW`work: if i flip this simm into 8 bit mode
19:18.30sorphini 1/2 my data and addr lines, which is fine, for this purpose, this is prolly a stupid question
19:18.38sorphinit doesn't matter what mode the data was written in does it?
19:18.45TomW`workyou know, you _can_ build your own simm programmer, I mean, you know how to program flash chips right?  The algorithm and all?
19:18.50sorphini.e. i write it to the simm in 8 bit mode
19:18.57TomW`worksorphin: you could
19:19.14sorphinand the webpal will still like it when it's in 16 bit mode?
19:19.25TomW`worksorphin: no, doesn't matter, just so that the BYTE line is set back to 16 bit mode for the DTC
19:19.31TomW`workor webpal.
19:19.40sorphinTomW`work: yeah, i could, but it's a bit overkill to build something just for these 2 simms :P
19:19.40TomW`worksorphin: yeah, you got it.
19:19.45sorphinok
19:19.46sorphingood
19:19.52sorphinthen this is doable :P
19:20.21TomW`worksorphin: overkill? dunno, maybe it will convince you that you needed the programmer more than the scope you purchased?
19:20.22TomW`workheh
19:20.31sorphinTomW`work: bah
19:20.36TomW`worklol
19:20.40sorphinthe scope is more fun :P
19:20.44sorphinand more versatile
19:20.49TomW`workyeah, more usefull
19:22.20chouimatTomW`work: how much to flash a webpal simm?
19:22.43sorphinchouimat: generally it's free :P bill danielson will do it too *g*
19:24.13chouimatsorphin: or I finally build the serial port and I use gdb to flash it ...
19:24.23sorphinchouimat: trivial
19:24.28sorphinchouimat: least you can tho :P
19:24.42sorphinbah
19:24.46sorphinthis sucks
19:24.53sorphindamn 5V flash
19:25.04chouimatsorphin: not enought time lately
19:25.45sorphinTomW`work: the device i'd be using as a piggy back flasher uses 2.7V flash, so i'd have to hijack 5V from elsewhere (or would that not be a good idea, cuz it'd feedback onto the other pins?
19:28.29TomW`worksorphin: you may want to use LVX logic as a voltage shifter to protect the controller that will be driving it and to translate the drive levels between the disparate +5, +2.7 & +3.3v stuff?
19:28.41TomW`worksorphin: 74LVXxxx
19:29.04sorphinhmm
19:29.04TomW`worksorphin: it is +5v tolerant
19:29.25TomW`worksomething like a 74LVX245
