05:50.18 | levi__ | I finally pulled my tuxscreen out of its box again... |
05:51.35 | TomW | heh, does it still power up? |
05:51.37 | levi__ | having a hell of a time getting buildroot-tux to work. |
05:51.49 | TomW | :( |
05:51.50 | levi__ | Yeah, it works great, just never got much done with it. |
05:52.09 | TomW | I'm working with some webpals lately. |
05:52.31 | levi__ | Never picked up one of those, figured I'd better play with the tuxscreen before I bought a new toy. |
05:53.44 | levi__ | Grr, the picogui compile is failing. |
05:53.57 | levi__ | Maybe I should use one of the other gui options. |
05:55.01 | TomW | yeah, try microwindows or tinyx. I don't think that the problem with tinyx and the screen colors has been fixed though. |
05:55.17 | TomW | is matchbox in there? IIRC, that compiled ok. |
05:55.26 | andersee | TomW: as I recall, you simply have to start tinyx manually |
05:55.49 | TomW | andersee: yeah from a network connection, e.g. telnet |
05:56.23 | TomW | Tim kept saying that he could start it from a script (manually) and get the color right, but I never could get it to do that. |
05:56.38 | levi__ | I'll try microwindows |
05:57.07 | TomW | TimRiker: how goes it? dis-illusioned yet? |
06:20.36 | levi__ | This was so easy last time I tried it. |
06:23.18 | TomW | heh |
06:23.35 | TomW | sometimes things change, but not for the better? |
06:23.56 | levi__ | Yeah, like people stopped using it and now it's broke. |
06:24.21 | kergoth | someone should test the tuxscreen kernel build in the OZ buildroot |
06:24.33 | kergoth | i added it ages ago but dont own a tux :) |
06:24.56 | levi__ | Why does the OZ buildroot have a tuxscreen kernel? |
06:25.06 | kergoth | because it has a configuration interface |
06:25.15 | kergoth | make menuconfig/xconfig/gconfig/config/oldconfig/* |
06:25.39 | kergoth | it supports what, 8-10 devices atm. zaurus, ipaq, simpad, etc |
06:25.58 | kergoth | kenb uses it to make ext2 images he accesses from his webpal |
06:26.05 | kergoth | heh |
06:28.54 | levi__ | I just want this stupid buildroot-tux to work. |
06:29.30 | levi__ | Does anyone use tuxscreens anymore? |
07:23.54 | TimRiker | TomW: nope. things are going well. I'm at OLS at the moment. |

09:15.43 | TomW | he is threatening to toss them into the landfill (trash). |

09:17.53 | mallum | TomW: Im suprised mr riker hasn't tried to by them in bulk |
09:18.04 | TomW | he says that he has a number of them that don't have power supplies, cords, etc. He asked if I was interested in paying the shipping to have them sent to me rather than trash them. |
09:19.11 | TomW | where do you live? |

09:19.56 | TomW | hmmm, you better not take any back with you, you'll probably end up paying Custom on them. heehee |

09:31.17 | mallum | are you up really late ? |
09:33.38 | TomW | mallum: yeah, got involved with getting a new server put together for a guy last night. Freaking Promise FastTrak RAID controller was something I'd never worked with before. Took me a while to get it "right". |
09:34.17 | TomW | mallum: it was very late (early?) before I got finished. I am starting to see double now, so it must be time to crash soon. |
09:35.28 | TomW | mallum: I worked for a couple of hours at designing a plugin board for my webpals. I have to demo a concept and the webpals would be perfect for it. |
09:35.50 | TomW | s/worked/worked tonight/ |
09:37.15 | mallum | TomW: sounds nice, wish I new more about electronics |
09:37.39 | TomW | no you don't |
09:37.43 | TomW | heh |
09:38.19 | mallum | hehe |
09:38.37 | TomW | this will be an interesting little project. I am planning on running IP over a half duplex RS485 link. |
09:38.59 | mallum | I got a jornada 720 the other week and have been experimenting with the kernel on that |
09:39.47 | TomW | I was thinking of hacking an ethernet driver and tacking in the RS485 stuff. I still don't know if I will be able to use the ARP tables though.. |
09:40.11 | TomW | I'll need some kind of arp table. |
09:41.02 | TomW | mmm, maybe not, maybe I won't need arp. |
09:41.32 | TomW | mallum: what is the jornada? a PDA? |
09:44.03 | mallum | yeah, hp one with keyboard and 640x240 display |
09:44.13 | mallum | strongarm, just about runs linux |

09:51.54 | mallum | TomW: right |
09:52.25 | TomW | mallum: you do the MatchBox, right? |
09:53.26 | mallum | yeah |
09:53.45 | TomW | mallum: is there any reason that you cannot run something like Mozilla under Matchbox? |
09:54.58 | TomW | I mean, all Matchbox is is a video rendering engine, right? |
09:55.24 | mallum | TomW: mozilla runs well under matchbox |
09:55.42 | mallum | TomW: all matchbox does is manage windows, size/position/decorate them |
09:55.58 | mallum | TomW: I've been playing with the minimo branch of mozilla recently |
09:56.10 | TomW | mallum: right, I use the matchbox to replace XFree86 then. |
09:56.25 | TomW | minimo? |
09:56.35 | TomW | oh, mini-mozilla |
09:56.50 | mallum | http://mozilla.org/projects/minimo/ |
09:57.03 | mallum | TomW: matchbox dont replace xfree, it just runs on top |
09:57.26 | mallum | TomW: just like any other window manager - eg blackbox, metacity, e etc |
09:57.52 | mallum | TomW: matchbox is just more suited for PDAs, kiosks etc with its management policy and resource use |
09:58.04 | TomW | mallum: oh, so I need tinyx then to run minimo |
09:58.37 | mallum | TomW: any x server will do |
09:58.54 | TomW | yeah, even debian |
09:59.14 | TomW | I mean the debian ARM stuff has a decent version of X in it. |
10:00.20 | mallum | yeah, though I never got debians X to run on my CATS machine :/ |

10:11.40 | TomW | mallum_: yeah, I was wondering about the need for X and running mozilla. The board that I'm putting together for the webpal is going to add: 10BaseT + Quad serial port (2 RS232 & 2 RS485) + a CF slot. |
10:12.27 | TomW | mallum_: I'll be increasing the DRAM up to 32Meg and then I'll see how / if debian X can be made to run on it with minimo |

10:13.37 | TomW | mallum_: heh, could add one easily enough, eh? |
10:14.23 | TomW | mallum_: yeah, it has a 640x480 VGA output to either a TV monitor (RCA jacks) or you can plug in a CRT. |
10:14.56 | TomW | mallum_: I have one of them running in console mode right now on my TV set. |

10:18.15 | TomW | mallum_: IIRC, 27MIPS, so what is that? 66MHz? |

10:21.06 | mallum_ | yeah me too |
10:22.06 | TomW | mallum_: how do you find out what the difference is between ARM710 & ARM720, etc? I looked on the arm.com site and it didn't seem to have a lot of very technical information. |
10:23.09 | TomW | like ARM10 is mostly added DSP stuff, ARM11 is faster chips + DSP, etc. |
10:24.36 | TomW | mallum_: yeah, I recall, the webpal stuff uses the acorn framebuffer stuff. I had the devil's own time getting the font changed. |

16:12.25 | kergoth | and the web site wasnt being worked on _while_ you working on it pixil why exactly? |
16:12.28 | kergoth | anyway. |
16:12.51 | CosmicPenguin | kergoth: you have been following our trials and tribulations - are you really surprised? |

16:13.51 | mallum- | CosmicPenguin: np, sorry to hassle |
16:14.01 | mallum- | CosmicPenguin: its runs on X right ? |
16:16.39 | CosmicPenguin | mallum-: most of it. The PIM suites at least |
16:17.22 | CosmicPenguin | mallum-: The games, window manager, Nano-X utils, etc.... are Microwindows only |
16:22.59 | mallum- | CosmicPenguin: ah thats cool, using fltk ? |
16:27.22 | CosmicPenguin | mallum-: yep - the pims use FLTK |
16:27.26 | CosmicPenguin | So does ViewML |
16:27.59 | CosmicPenguin | We'll probably be integrating the Nxlib into the build system too, so you can build and run X11 apps on Microwindows... :-) |
16:28.23 | mallum- | CosmicPenguin: right, it'd be intersting to see if mb can build against nxlib |
16:28.35 | mallum- | CosmicPenguin: does it do SHAPE and mitshm ? |
16:28.37 | CosmicPenguin | Doubtful - we don't handle any of the funky WM hints or anything |
16:29.04 | CosmicPenguin | The nxlib implements a good chunk of the X11 core functions - so if your library is built against the X11 core, it might work |
16:29.53 | CosmicPenguin | When we originally wrote it, we were targeting QT |
16:30.13 | CosmicPenguin | And then we have recently expanded it to run most of the GTK tutorials |

22:21.48 | legodude | alright |
22:21.51 | legodude | no idea what that one is then |
22:22.09 | file | I like the 560 series... so my current 560 is almost dead |
22:22.17 | file | so I thought I'd get a 560Z since it has cardbus and USB |
22:22.23 | legodude | ah |
22:22.30 | legodude | I love my 240 |
22:23.06 | legodude | it is slow though |
22:23.08 | legodude | only 300mhz |

22:23.19 | prpplague | anyone have experience using pselect()? |
