00:00.34Russgtkterm?
00:01.12Russits purty....
00:01.19CosmicPenguinminicom is what I use
00:01.37CosmicPenguinIs there any particular emulation you need?
00:01.40Russhmm...I might start using gtkterm
00:02.06kergothgtkterm.. havent tried that one
00:02.20kergothCosmicPenguin: nothing specific at the moment, just seeking something that doesnt suck.
00:02.37Russit seems like its meant for hardware hacking and such
00:21.25kergothhey jacques
00:23.23jacqueshi kergoth :-)
00:23.30kergothhttp://treke.net/~bk/
00:23.39kergoth^^-OE spiffiness
00:23.51CosmicPenguinHow complete are we - can it build a Z image?
00:24.05kergothI can produce basic nfsroot filesystems, and a jffs2 image from it
00:24.10kergothbut there's no deviceisms in place yet
00:24.21kergothto handle different devices quirks
00:24.28kergothwe're tantalizingly close
00:24.39CosmicPenguinI'll get to it tommorrow
00:24.40kergothneed to integrate the deployment tools better and improve their ease of use
00:24.44kergothcool
01:34.00Russkergoth`bbl: do you have the version of mkcramfs that supports jffs2 device tables?
01:39.36CosmicPenguinRuss: I've got a copy of the patch if you need it
02:19.05RussCosmicPenguin: I wrote it, I was checking if kergoth had it
02:19.15CosmicPenguinOk then
02:19.34kergothyeah, its floating around here somewhere
02:19.38kergothdunnow here.. but somewhere
02:20.02Russshould make it easy to give an option of jffs2 or cramfs creation
02:20.31kergothyeah
02:20.38kergothI need to patch gnu tar to have device table support
02:20.49kergothFor ipk/deb packaging
02:21.13Russkergoth: could you make a script that uses fakeroot?
02:21.27kergothyeah, did that for the moment
02:21.34chouimat|boredhmmmm Microsoft want to fight spam
02:21.38RussHAHAHA
02:21.39kergothwould still prefer the table method, feels more explicit, rather than implicit.
02:21.44kergothchouimat|bored: hah
02:21.57chouimat|boredyup a new mail protocol
02:22.00Russchouimat|bored: they also want to fight chatroom trolls
02:22.38chouimat|boredRuss: the problem is the reporter still believe them ... 20 minutes in the french news here
02:23.35Russmost reporters are just regurgitators
02:24.02chouimat|boredRuss: imagine that you will need you CC number to use MS-SMTP (0.05$ billed every time you send a email)
02:24.32Russor that you could hack someones computer to ring up a huge cc bill
02:24.41chouimat|boredhehe

02:39.33Russgot it with that case
02:39.47RussI like them because they don't act as space heaters
02:40.19kergothspiffy
02:42.07file[wifi]well that was a fun 6 hours
02:42.13kergothdoing what?
02:42.22file[wifi]installing FreeBSD
02:42.31kergothah
02:42.38file[wifi]it's still not quite right either
02:44.42CosmicPenguinidot is a spiffy website too - thats where I got mine
02:44.47CosmicPenguinAnd I'm thinking about getting another
02:45.26RussI got a completely fanless system from them from an autoshop POS I did for a friend
02:45.51Russunfortunately, a reliable system means less free auto service
02:45.56CosmicPenguinThey would make an excellent POS system
02:46.03Russs/from/for/
02:46.04CosmicPenguinMuch better than Geodes... :)
02:46.29kergoththat reminds me, need to hit up fry's for a 2.5" hd ide adapter
02:46.34kergothso i can fix my magnia
02:46.55Russkergoth: how is speakeasy btw?

14:33.54chouimathi tim cp
14:34.53CosmicPenguinchouimat:
14:38.11CosmicPenguinhis stunts seem to be more like Fear Factor and less like Secrets of the Magicans
14:38.23mallum_yeah
14:38.45CosmicPenguinThat ice block bit he did a few years ago, he had a thin layer of air between him and the ice, it was perfect insulation
14:38.56mallum_I think his PR company wanna pull him out as the british public are such c**nts muahahahha
14:39.19CosmicPenguinThe Eskimo's were going:  "Nice magic there, we've been doing that for 3000 years"

15:00.28mallum_kergoth: why is you nick kergoth
15:03.24kergothah
15:03.38kergothno reason. there's no meaning behind it, just something that popped into my head one day
15:03.55kergothsince I knew it was unique, and not a word, didnt have to be concerned with others already having it, so said what the hell
15:13.49mallum_ah ok

16:50.47CosmicPenguinmmmm...  gnucash has a new invoice format
16:51.26CosmicPenguinThere are only two things about gnucash that piss me off - 1) its hard to make custom reports, and 2) you can't directly type names or numbers into the dialog boxes, you have to do a "search" for the name, and then select the item
16:51.34CosmicPenguinOther than that, it rocks for home and small office

21:49.58CosmicPenguinThese developers are kind of dicks
21:50.03kergothwho?
21:50.14CosmicPenguinON the development page, they talk about how bad the contributed patches suck
21:50.23CosmicPenguinthe Twibright Labs
21:50.30chouimatkergoth: the codename the new alpha of kde 3.2 after one of the czech bartender ... she was hot ...

21:58.00kergothCosmicPenguin: jeeze. thats gratitude for you, they should be happy people are contributing at all
22:23.09CosmicPenguinkergoth: looking at links right now - it should be not too difficult to port to Nano-X
22:23.22CosmicPenguinThe X code is already here, it should be a 1 to 1 match even
22:23.44chouimatCosmicPenguin: 2 or 3 days of work for you :)
22:23.58kergothCosmicPenguin: nice
22:24.00CosmicPenguinI'll work on it tonight - that will get me out of having to watch Friends with the wife

22:55.02CosmicPenguinbut this links code uses a goto in place of a perfectly good if() { } block
22:55.08kergothhah
22:55.10CosmicPenguinAnd they have the guts to call other people unexpert?
22:55.15kergothi like goto in deep error handling
22:55.18file[wifi]my computer science teacher won't let us use gotos
22:55.22file[wifi]she says they don't exist in her universe
22:55.23kergothfor free()'ing and the like
22:55.26CosmicPenguingotos are ok - in the right world
22:55.29kergothbut thats about it
