00:22.06 | kergoth | my only wish is that the scroll wheel zoomed |
00:22.11 | Soopaman | yeah |
00:22.39 | Soopaman | this app is soo well done, that it would be perfect for embedded devices |
00:22.41 | kergoth | its like a commercial mapping/streets application, only free, and web based |
00:22.49 | kergoth | heh |
00:22.51 | Soopaman | yeah |

02:43.06 | chouimat | tim is leaving TI? |
02:43.10 | kergoth | yep |
02:43.20 | kergoth | e&ps chose nucleus instead of linux |
02:43.28 | kergoth | (education & productivity solutions) |
02:43.36 | chouimat | I see |
02:53.38 | T0mW | kergoth: I'm not surprised to learn that TI isn't interested in Linux, they really never were a mainstream processor company anyway. Their processors are more highly specialized and a generic thingy like Linux just goes against their grain. |
02:58.18 | kergoth | ? |
02:58.20 | kergoth | thats just education |
02:58.25 | kergoth | my division does tons of linux work |
02:58.31 | kergoth | 99% of which goes upstream |
02:58.52 | kergoth | their OMAP processors have an ARM core, and run linux well |

03:10.14 | TimRiker | T0mW: yeah, kergoth left E&PS and went to where the real Linux work is happening at TI. |
03:10.31 | TimRiker | I'll talk to that group seriously soon. |
03:11.40 | TimRiker | T0mW: most of the OMAP customers are cell phone vendors. many (all?) of them have linux projects in the works. |
03:11.59 | TimRiker | so Linux is _very_ important to TI these days. |
03:12.26 | TimRiker | course I doubt upper management knows that. ah well. gotta luv large companies. |
03:12.56 | TimRiker | T0mW: have you played with any OMAP hardware? the osk is a fun board. |
03:12.58 | TimRiker | ~osk |
03:12.59 | ibot | [osk] the OMAP5912 Starter Kit, a $295 development board with 32/32, serial, ethernet, usb host/client, CF, jtag, and expansion connectors available from http://www.spectrumdigital.com/cgi/catalog.cgi?show_product=701875 or http://tree.celinuxforum.org/pubwiki/moin.cgi/OSK, or http://www.ti.com/omap5912osk |
03:13.13 | chouimat | nice pricew |
03:13.13 | T0mW | TimRiker: no |
03:14.24 | TimRiker | I've got a few of em. have an OSK that uses the OMAP 331 at work with a qvga display on it. somone will grab it and put nucleus on it soon. =( |
03:15.24 | chouimat | hmmmm less than 400cad |
03:15.33 | TimRiker | kergoth: hmm. perhaps I should transfer to Nice and work on the Linux cell stack. ;-) |
03:15.55 | TimRiker | ~change 395 USD to CAD |
03:16.00 | TimRiker | ~change 295 USD to CAD |
03:16.07 | TimRiker | helps if I type it right. |
03:17.42 | prpplague | TimRiker: evening |
03:17.52 | prpplague | TimRiker: hope you find something in one of the other divisons |
03:17.56 | chouimat | TimRiker: look like a very nice kit ... |
03:18.10 | prpplague | TimRiker: ep&s seems to have a real problem understanding their target market |

03:29.07 | prpplague | TimRiker: not much hard core embedded dev going on in barbados right now, but hopefully that will change |

04:08.21 | [g2] | I think think there's a bug there with 2.6.9 on the ixp420 and probably the ixp425 |
04:08.38 | [g2] | I'm close to the issue now |
04:09.27 | prpplague | TimRiker / kergoth / chouimat there are some great opportunities in some of the smaller countries |
04:09.47 | prpplague | TimRiker / kergoth / chouimat you can influence the direction of the whole country |
04:10.11 | kergoth | okay, lets hear about these opportunities. where's the info? :) |
04:10.47 | prpplague | kergoth: hehe, thats just it, there isn't a dice.com for these places |
04:10.50 | kergoth | hehe |
04:10.53 | prpplague | kergoth: you gotta know someone |
04:11.02 | chouimat | ok lets hear about the paycheck :) |
04:11.15 | chouimat | and the living cost |
04:11.16 | jacques | a $1000 bribe will get you the info |
04:11.24 | jacques | then about $2500 for first round interview |
04:11.28 | kergoth | http://www.ti.com/europe/docs/empl/tif/gpitsw.htm .. heh |
04:11.39 | prpplague | hehe, chouimat you'd be surprised the living cost sounds high but the pay matches |
04:12.11 | chouimat | prpplague: I spent 1.5 months in Switzerland ... |
04:12.43 | chouimat | prpplague: so just I know what expensive mean =) |
04:12.44 | file[laptop] | AUSTIN POWERS! |
04:14.34 | prpplague | jacques: really? how was that? |
04:15.06 | prpplague | grenada is paying big $$ for network engineers |

04:29.52 | kergoth | night |
04:33.48 | prpplague | kergoth: so what kind of island environment are you attracted to? |
04:34.39 | ljp | the kind with topless beaches |
04:34.56 | prpplague | ljp: hehe |
04:35.11 | prpplague | ljp: you can find those on most islands |
04:35.18 | prpplague | just gotta know where to look |
04:35.53 | ljp | they don;t even use the secluded beaches here |
04:36.22 | ljp | busiest beach in queensland and you can find them |
04:39.57 | prpplague | ljp: oz? |
04:42.23 | kergoth | prpplague: heh, i've never been to an island, no idea. |
04:42.27 | kergoth | just open to the possibility |
04:45.10 | prpplague | kergoth: yea, probably need to visit some first |
04:45.17 | prpplague | kergoth: before you move |
04:45.45 | prpplague | kergoth: when i get settled, you could come down and check things out |
04:45.51 | prpplague | kergoth: its not for everyone |
04:45.57 | kergoth | nod |
04:46.32 | ljp | prpp: ya |
04:46.32 | prpplague | kergoth: you might find things difficult, like you'd need to order all your music over the net since the local store probably would not have it |
04:46.40 | prpplague | ljp: nice |
04:46.46 | prpplague | ljp: been there long? |
04:47.09 | prpplague | ljp: i always wanted to visit oz and nz |
04:47.13 | ljp | about a year and a half |
04:47.31 | prpplague | ljp: oh thats right i remember you talking a job down there |
04:47.41 | prpplague | ljp: hows that going? |
04:47.52 | ljp | going good. |
04:48.09 | ljp | besides beating my head against a wall at various times |
04:48.41 | prpplague | ljp: hehe, you get out to explore much? |
04:48.56 | ljp | a bit. |
04:49.14 | ljp | we had a business meeting on fiji a few months ago :) |
04:49.22 | prpplague | ow |
04:49.23 | prpplague | wow |
04:50.33 | prpplague | kergoth: i suspect that your personality is similiar to mine in the respect that we like new intellectial challenges |
04:50.52 | prpplague | kergoth: nothing more challenging that fitting into a different culture |
04:51.10 | prpplague | kergoth: thats what leads alot of ppl like us to computers, its always something new |
04:58.57 | prpplague | kergoth: from my personally experience, ppl like you and CosmicPenguin need to be put off balance to due their best work |
05:00.02 | prpplague | hehe |
05:00.20 | prpplague | ljp: why did you move to oz? |
05:00.35 | prpplague | ljp: was it simply for money or a job |
05:00.44 | prpplague | ljp: i'd be willing to be it was more than tha |
05:00.46 | ljp | job. working for trolltech |
05:00.48 | kergoth | prpplague: ljp is a troll, now |
05:01.01 | ljp | and escape the empire |
05:01.07 | prpplague | ljp: i would bet that thats just an excuse |
05:01.48 | ljp | nope |
05:01.54 | ljp | i love it here |
05:02.17 | ljp | except for their funny spellings and words they use |
05:02.23 | prpplague | kergoth: if your boss walked into your office tomorrow and said "chris, we are sending you to india to do some training for atleast a year" what would be your reaction |
05:02.41 | kergoth | mm, indian food |
05:02.45 | prpplague | kergoth: hehe |
05:03.05 | kergoth | my best friend is from there, would be interesting |
05:03.19 | kergoth | i'm not someone who likes to "vacation" places. i dont want to experience places as a tourist |
05:03.19 | ljp | but your boss forgets to mention they will be paying you Indian wages |
05:03.24 | kergoth | i want to live there for a while |
05:03.27 | kergoth | ljp: hah |
05:03.48 | prpplague | kergoth: next best thing trindad and tobago |

05:09.05 | prpplague | kergoth: when i was in longview i used to pay for ztv |
05:09.14 | prpplague | kergoth: indian television |
05:10.11 | prpplague | well like i said, once i get settled ayone that wants to visit barbados from elinux has a place to stay |
05:10.45 | TimRiker | prpplague: sounds like fun. are we getting together before you split? |

12:07.41 | T0mW | jacques: BTW, good morning, heh |
12:12.40 | jacques | T0mW, i did go to groklaw but they have so much content now... what did pj say? |

12:18.04 | T0mW | jacques: heh |
12:19.03 | T0mW | jacques: yeah, I didn't know that you went there first. I noticed that the article on news.com.com was not as optomistic (actually seemed to downplay IBM's chances) as PJ was. |
12:20.58 | jacques | the quotes from the judge are pretty clear to me :-) |
12:24.25 | T0mW | yeah, I guess he finally got fed up with all the BS that SCO tried pulling. I just love this case, SCO really bungled it badly. Their CEO thought that all he had to do was run his mouth and IBM would buy their company just to shut them up. |
12:25.33 | T0mW | just another 6..12 months and IBM can purchase their assets at rock-bottom prices. |
12:25.42 | T0mW | if they wanted to. |
12:27.04 | jacques | yep I want this to be a loud and clear message to all the other slime |
12:27.25 | T0mW | SCO has really done us a service |
12:27.36 | T0mW | gave linux tons of free publicity |
12:28.03 | jacques | an unambigous verdict would be nice too |
12:33.59 | T0mW | WTF is an ICMP type 11 for port 53 ? |
12:34.08 | T0mW | is that a transfer request? |
12:36.51 | jacques | 53 is DNS |

12:37.02 | jacques | oh you already know that :-) |
12:37.40 | T0mW | yeah, was just trying to change my primary dns and godaddy keeps bitching that it's "not available" or such |
12:38.27 | T0mW | So, I checked the firewall and saw that icmp being blocked, but, before I allow it... I want to know what it is I'm gonna let in, heh |

16:43.41 | prpplague | pb_: however after jtag'n a new bootloader on, the reset button/line does work, i have to power off the unit before it will start the new bootloader |
16:43.51 | prpplague | s/does/doesn't |
16:44.24 | prpplague | pb_: am i missing something at the end of my jtag app ? |
16:45.06 | pb_ | prpplague: maybe your jtag code isn't setting the cpu back into run mode correctly. It might be getting left in EXTEST or something, with the core isolated from the I/O. |
16:46.07 | pb_ | you could try connecting the jtag nTRST signal to system reset, so the reset button also resets the TAP. |
16:46.31 | prpplague | pb_: yea, thats what we were thinking about doing |
16:47.38 | prpplague | pb_: do i need to do anything with the other jtag lines when i set nTRST low? |

16:53.36 | kergoth | CosmicPenguin: that sucks man. sounds like someone(tm) needs to spread some linux clue around management |
16:54.08 | CosmicPenguin | The thing about it is that my director is an old school dude - he used to trade lisp code with RMS back in the 80's |
16:54.34 | CosmicPenguin | I think its just the general constipation that all corporations feel |
16:57.43 | prpplague | pb_: yea, it looks like its being left in extest |
16:58.06 | prpplague | pb_: should i do a bypass before issuing nTRST? |

18:12.53 | Soopaman | hmmm.. anyone familiar with usb enclosures |
18:12.55 | Soopaman | ? |
18:57.20 | cdm | Soopaman, for drives? |
18:57.51 | Soopaman | yeah |
18:58.07 | Soopaman | trying to figure out if i have a bad chipset, or faulty power brick |
18:58.21 | CosmicPenguin | is the light on? |
18:59.46 | Soopaman | but for the record, i hear the drive spin up, click, then spin down |
18:59.56 | CosmicPenguin | ugh |
19:00.16 | Soopaman | any ideas? |
19:00.27 | Soopaman | the drive works properly when connected to my desktop box |
19:00.43 | CosmicPenguin | strange |
19:00.59 | Soopaman | but the usb enclosure works properly with my maxtor and seagate drives |
19:01.06 | Soopaman | just not my western digitals |
19:01.21 | Soopaman | and i can't figure out if that's because the wd's draw power differently or what |
19:01.28 | CosmicPenguin | Thats a badly performing drive, sounds like to me |
19:01.42 | Soopaman | but the drives are good |
19:01.59 | Soopaman | some are frsh out the box new, others are tried and tested |
19:02.02 | CosmicPenguin | badly performing as far as spec is concerned, not actual functionality |
19:02.09 | Soopaman | oh |
19:02.15 | Soopaman | so what would you suggest? |
19:02.27 | hardwire | a kiss |
19:02.30 | Soopaman | lol |
19:02.37 | CosmicPenguin | Well, if the failure doesn't track a single part, then don't use that brand |
19:02.47 | Soopaman | french kiss the ps? |
19:02.49 | CosmicPenguin | "Doctor it hurts when I do this" "So don't do that" |
19:03.21 | Soopaman | CosmicPenguin, i was hoping to figure out a solution instead of just ignoring the problem |
19:03.47 | CosmicPenguin | Soopaman: well, think about it in a pratical manner |
19:03.57 | Soopaman | i have |
19:04.03 | CosmicPenguin | The failure doesn't happen to any single drive, right? |
19:04.05 | Soopaman | but i'm trying to learn aswell |
19:04.17 | CosmicPenguin | The failure doesn't happen on other platforms, so its unlikely that the code is acting strangly |
19:04.36 | CosmicPenguin | The enclosure does seem to generally work on other devices |
19:04.40 | CosmicPenguin | The moon is not full |
19:05.03 | CosmicPenguin | Ergo - the only pratical assumption that I would make is that WD is doing something thats out of spec, so its failing |
19:05.41 | Soopaman | k |
19:06.09 | CosmicPenguin | But I might not be creative enough to see a solution here |
19:06.24 | CosmicPenguin | when we're testing our cpus, and something breaks, and we test it on a pentium, and it breaks the same way, we normally don't bother persuing the issue |
19:06.38 | CosmicPenguin | So thats what I'm used to suggesting |

19:18.09 | Soopaman | ok, i figured it out |
19:18.12 | Soopaman | thanks CosmicPenguin |
19:18.24 | Soopaman | now time to google for the specs on creating a mini psu |
19:18.44 | Soopaman | well a psu capable of powering 5 3.5" drives |
19:19.46 | CosmicPenguin | cool |
19:20.26 | Soopaman | it was the way the enclosure fed power to the drive |
19:20.57 | Soopaman | so i used an old psu to power the drive, and connected the usb enclosure to the drive, and it worked perfectl |
19:20.58 | Soopaman | y |

21:39.40 | TimRiker | anyone try 2.6 on the tux yet? I took mine home so I'll have to get back to it later. |
21:39.54 | file | nah, ignore the tuxscreen for now - focus on the zipit! |
21:40.07 | CosmicPenguin | I was going to actually bring my tux in today and play with it in my spare time |
21:40.09 | CosmicPenguin | but I forgot it |
21:40.24 | CosmicPenguin | I'm trying to build up a library of embedded images that do The Right Thing(TM) |
21:40.36 | CosmicPenguin | so I can craft them into a sizable cluebat |
21:40.36 | TimRiker | heh. are there pictures of where to attach the serial lines? |
21:40.44 | TimRiker | and jtag too for that matter? |
21:42.13 | TimRiker | CosmicPenguin: I upgraded the tux build root so that 2.6 works and it's the release bb 1.0 with the release uclibc 0.9.37[?] seems to all work great. I copy that root/ around with minor tweaks on many systems. |
21:42.56 | TimRiker | ie: I did a version with XIP userspace on cramfs that uses a ramfs for /var and read-only root. works like a champ. |
21:43.01 | TimRiker | no GUI in the images though. |
21:43.44 | MonMotha | TimRiker: is it still in the normal CVS place? |
21:43.52 | MonMotha | I've got a tux here I could probably do somethign with |
21:46.55 | TimRiker | MonMotha: yepper. |
21:47.31 | TimRiker | I'd like to merge the tux specific stuff into the uclibc.org buildroot so that it moves forward with the rest. not started that yet though. |
21:48.40 | MonMotha | hum, did CVS move from sourceforge? or are sourceforge's CVS servers just down (like usual)? |
21:58.20 | MonMotha | I'm using pserver since I don't have a sf account |
22:00.39 | prpplague | TimRiker: what up? |

22:02.38 | prpplague | TimRiker: yea, i think there was some posts with the details |

22:28.25 | CosmicPenguin | TimRiker: well, we have the Alchemy stuff, and thats for sure embedded |
22:29.13 | CosmicPenguin | And since we recently added a high end geode re-branded athlon core to the top of the Geode line, our other geodes have been targeted at more embedded designs |
22:31.12 | CosmicPenguin | yessss? |

22:34.02 | fishhead | hehe |
22:34.04 | fishhead | dude |
22:34.06 | fishhead | you rock |
22:34.18 | fishhead | that alchemy is wicked |
22:34.23 | fishhead | don't give that up without a fight |
22:34.31 | fishhead | I remeber amd's former product the elan |
22:34.34 | fishhead | their 486 core |
22:34.39 | fishhead | was popular as hell for embedded |
22:34.45 | fishhead | people were actually sorry to see it go |
22:35.00 | fishhead | they sold a canuckload of 186 cores for embedded too |
22:35.02 | fishhead | till recentely |
22:35.04 | fishhead | for control apps |
22:35.17 | CosmicPenguin | Well, it obviously wasn't *that* popular |
22:35.29 | fishhead | na I think it's time was just up |
22:35.36 | fishhead | didn't have enough ump anymore |
22:36.00 | fishhead | I think you guys will do better with geode than nat semi did |
22:36.06 | fishhead | since you guys *KNOW* x86 |
22:36.12 | fishhead | it's part of your core market |
22:36.22 | fishhead | I have no ills against nat semi they rock for what they do |
22:36.56 | fishhead | but that alchemy is damn wicked for ultra low power apps that need 32 bits |
22:37.53 | CosmicPenguin | To be fair, the geode core team knows their stuff |
22:38.00 | CosmicPenguin | AMD hasn't taught them much they didn't already know |
22:38.07 | fishhead | :P |
22:39.11 | fishhead | oh I didn't mean to suggest they didn't |
22:39.16 | fishhead | I mean in terms of sales, marketing etc |
22:39.23 | fishhead | it didn't fit nat semi well like it does you guys |
22:39.55 | fishhead | will alchemy run linux mips ? |
22:39.59 | fishhead | or do you need uclinux |
22:40.06 | fishhead | or ecos |
22:40.49 | CosmicPenguin | alchemy has a mmu |
22:41.18 | fishhead | :) |
22:52.48 | fishhead | well good luck with that cosmic |

22:52.57 | fishhead | mabye I will buy a devel board eventually :P |
22:53.37 | fishhead | yeah that would own your canuck |
22:53.43 | fishhead | alchemy looks wicked for voip |
22:53.49 | fishhead | should make it both cheap and secure |
22:53.59 | fishhead | in fact it should nuke a lot of arguments for NOT using crypto |
