01:56.13Dr{Wh0}anyone know anyone on buildroot list with svn access?
01:57.16Dr{Wh0}line 143 of target/linux/Makefile.in has a bad slash has \ needs to be /
02:06.00RobotGuyDr{Wh0}: If all you want is to download the current svn of buildroot, anyone can do that.
02:06.10Dr{Wh0}no i want to have a bug fixed.
02:06.30Dr{Wh0}ulf submitted a patch rev 19671 it has an error well at least 1 i can see
02:06.31RobotGuyDr{Wh0}: Ah, OK.  There is a bug tracking thing you could use.
02:07.01Dr{Wh0}looks like its verrrrryy old so i wonder why its still a problem
02:15.33*** join/#elinux GPSFan (n=kenm@12.10.255.246)
02:18.55Dr{Wh0}hmm maybe i didnt understand the line. It may work if its not a folder but a filename and the \* is a regex

02:38.07hd_chrohello, everybody
02:38.07hd_chroI am newer on uclinux hack
02:38.16hd_chroI want to try uclinux on i386, but I cannot find right open when compiler uclinux kernel.
02:38.16hd_chroplease help me, thanks
02:38.16hd_chroMy uclinux package is uclinux-dist-20070130.tar.bz2, I do make menuconfig arch cannot found intel(i386) option
02:38.16hd_chroShould I modify some configure ? please help me, thanks
02:39.25hd_chroon uclinux kernel configure, I cannot find right option for support intel(i386)
02:41.32hd_chroI dig source, and I found arch/i386 directory, but on kernel configure, it have not related option
02:42.26hd_chroany help will be appreciated, thanks
02:43.56Dr{Wh0}hd_chro maybe also try #edev maybe someone there uses uClinux
02:44.28hd_chrothanks
02:44.41Dr{Wh0}also would be good to pastebin your actual messages
02:46.17*** join/#elinux ico2__ (n=ico2@modem-636.chimpanzee.dialup.pol.co.uk)
02:46.42hd_chrowhat you mean, I donot understand, please said again
02:47.02Dr{Wh0}provide actual messages of your build errors
02:47.16Dr{Wh0}not "sudo" messages
02:47.50hd_chrook, I know, I cannot find right option, so I cannot compile for i386
02:48.14Dr{Wh0}ok so not so much an error as you cant even find the option to start to compile..
02:48.17hd_chroyou mean I try compile first
02:48.19Dr{Wh0}i wasnt sure.
02:49.03Dr{Wh0}ok but i dont think uCLinux is designed for i386?
02:49.16Dr{Wh0}its for cpu's with no MMU
02:49.19*** join/#elinux chouimat|away (n=dieu@kde/developer/chouinard)
02:49.45hd_chroit sure, but I want cheap platform for try uclinux, so I think use i386
02:49.59Dr{Wh0}hmm can i make a suggestion?
02:50.09hd_chrook , please
02:50.30Dr{Wh0}ok not sure if its even possible but maybe QEMU can help by emulating such a processor as one used for uclinux
02:51.35mnemocarm
02:51.41Dr{Wh0}http://www.uclinux.org/ports/ i just dont see any talk of i386 here.
02:51.59RobotGuyWhat is the MCU with the least RAM/Flash that uCLinux has been put on?
02:52.16Dr{Wh0}because it has an mmu and would be sort of against the point of uCLinux i am guessing. again i dont know this project.
02:52.56hd_chrobut on emulation, if any question It would trouble debug, I am not sure,
02:53.38hd_chroI see a post for try uclinux on i386 , so I want to try
02:54.03Dr{Wh0}not sure robotguy. i have used ATMEGA128 and others. But thats not on there list.. i see AT91SAM
02:54.17hd_chroif it is impossible, I will try virtual machine
02:55.53RobotGuyDr{Wh0}: I have two Renesas H8SX/1664 starter kits, and will soon have an SH7211 starter kit.
02:56.25RobotGuyI also have a couple of LPC2148 boards.
02:56.54Dr{Wh0}24k of ram. that would be fun
02:57.06RobotGuyLPC2148 has 42KB RAM
02:57.38Dr{Wh0}i have done lots of fun stuff with ATMEGA128 using nutos but its amazing how little room you have left after loading any reasonable portion of nutos
02:57.52RobotGuyI have no doubt of that.
02:58.21RobotGuyWhat is nutos?  I have been experimenting with FreeRTOS on my LPC2148 proto board.
02:58.22Dr{Wh0}they must have done tuns to strip the heck out of linux to fit on such chips.
02:58.44Dr{Wh0}nutos is a realtime multithreaded os / API
02:58.58hd_chrothanks Dr{Wh0}
02:59.05RobotGuyDo you have a link to it?  Is it free or commercial?
02:59.07Dr{Wh0}has lots of libs to help in doing i2c talking to network chips etc
02:59.11Dr{Wh0}ya sure brb.
02:59.14*** part/#elinux hd_chro (n=rhg_xu@59.108.23.235)
02:59.18Dr{Wh0}ill pull it out of my wiki page
02:59.24RobotGuyThanks
03:00.06Dr{Wh0}http://www.ethernut.de/en/software/index.html
03:00.32Dr{Wh0}originaly i loaded it with a jtag port but added a small bootloader later to load any updates via its serial port.
03:00.53Dr{Wh0}still trying to figure out if i can get enough of the code into a bootloader to load via the ethernet chip but its tight.
03:01.33RobotGuyI haven't done anything with AVRs yet.  I've been doing PICs/dsPICs, and just recently got into ARM7 (LPC2k) and ARM9 (Hammer).
03:01.41Dr{Wh0}only like 512 bytes of asm code is all you get for the boot loader. but i was thining i could keep a second stage boot code library out in nvram to have the basic libs i need for talking to the network chip.
03:02.04Dr{Wh0}ya i made my choice. was going to do pic but decided to go avr
03:02.10MonMothaAVR is great, but not for Linux
03:02.13RobotGuyIf you have a lot of flash, that might be usable for that.  LPC2148 has 512 KB Flash.
03:02.17MonMothathough I guess there is AVR32
03:02.35RobotGuyMonMotha: Greets.  I want one of the NGW100 boards.
03:02.50MonMothanever heard of it
03:03.05RobotGuyIt's the Atmel AVR32 development board.
03:03.12MonMothaoh
03:03.20Dr{Wh0}this is the board i use for my home automation projects
03:03.22Dr{Wh0}http://www.soc-machines.com/product/Amber_Specs/Amber_Processor.html
03:03.38MonMothaI'm curious why Atmel decided to invent a new arch rather than just use ARM
03:03.41MonMothathey are an ARM license
03:03.42MonMothae
03:03.44Dr{Wh0}its just a clone of many other's same basic design of mcu and network chip + some extra stuff
03:04.09MonMothathough perhaps if it's more AVR than ARM, it won't have the errata their AT91 ARMs do :)
03:04.11RobotGuyMonMotha: That's a nice looking little board!  I've been looking for a good Atmega128 board to start out with.
03:04.33MonMothahum, dunno about what to get for something that big
03:04.43Dr{Wh0}be patient with that guy he takes a while to ship beyond that its all good.
03:04.44MonMothaanything that's available in DIP can be used on the STK500, which isn't overpriced
03:04.53RobotGuyMonMotha: Who knows, but I have wanted to work with the AVR32 since it was introduced - it's designed for multimedia.
03:05.10Dr{Wh0}WS168 is smaller
03:07.44MonMothaRobotGuy: indeed, it is
03:07.57Dr{Wh0}if you have a login on http://www.avrfreaks.net/ you can look at blips.. that is what i use to bootload new code just boot up and send a serial byte and the amber will begin downloading new program over the serial..
03:08.24MonMothaheh, I have a JTAGICE
03:08.29MonMothamakes code downloads REALLY easy
03:09.39Dr{Wh0}ya but you have to put on the jtag port to program. i just plug in the serial on the amber to a box. or use ethernet->serial and i can program remotely.
03:09.53RobotGuyDr{Wh0}: I have never been able to get an account on AVRFreaks.
03:10.04Dr{Wh0}?
03:10.27Dr{Wh0}i dont think i did anything special to make one.
03:10.31RobotGuyI've never been able to get validated there.
03:10.39RobotGuyI don't get e-mails from some software.
03:10.40Dr{Wh0}hmm spam trap?
03:10.50RobotGuyNo spam trap - I see all of it.
03:11.00Dr{Wh0}odd. gmail account : c )
03:11.21RobotGuyNo gmail or yahoo, etc.  Real domain e-mail.  I have 12 domains now.
03:11.43Dr{Wh0}did you see that gmail is now hosting email for your domains for free now.
03:11.58RobotGuyI didn't see that.  I wonder what the catch is.
03:12.33Dr{Wh0}thay have more machines that GOD and want to keep them busy.. not sure if we should start worring about google taking over the world but maybe soon.
03:13.52Dr{Wh0}i need a good jtag debugger.. : ( i still debug via printf
03:14.11Dr{Wh0}whats the damage on that toy?
03:14.49Dr{Wh0}http://www.google.com/a/ for hosting your domain/domains on gmail's servers
03:14.56RobotGuyI still have to get ISP style e-mail working on my server so I can host all my domains for e-mail.
03:15.06Dr{Wh0}only catch is no store / forward unless you pay
03:15.18Dr{Wh0}but they allow imap
03:15.43Dr{Wh0}i have had to help a few friends move lately to that or others because comcast is killing all port 25 now.
03:15.50RobotGuyI may look at them for one of my domains that will expire soon.  I don't care for the hoster it is on.
03:16.18RobotGuyInbound AND outbound for comcast?
03:16.20Dr{Wh0}ya.. free is free seems to work ok so far.
03:16.23Dr{Wh0}ya both
03:16.32RobotGuyComcast just sucks anyway.
03:16.37Dr{Wh0}they are doing it stealthy.
03:16.47Dr{Wh0}by area
03:17.14RobotGuyThey must be trying to catch anyone running a secret server.
03:17.38Dr{Wh0}they will deny it if you ask the tech.. but its clear.. i host like 100+ domains for email and i have had more and more people call in with issues.
03:17.59Dr{Wh0}ya i expect thats part of it.
03:18.08RobotGuyI am not surprised that Comcast would do that. I refuse to pay them for ANY services.
03:18.53RobotGuyI have a cell phone as my only phone, DSL (6 MB/768 KB) for internet and no TV at present.
03:20.08MonMothacomcast is going to eventually piss ALL their customers off, not just the ones who they don't want anyway
03:20.10Dr{Wh0}im still trying to get off the copper. trying to link my office and home.. just need to get my yagi up higher and get a 400mw wireless card
03:21.12Dr{Wh0}ya. i dont think they told the tech support people. They are clueless or getting a clew slowly. they go through the trouble to look at the routers and see the block module is loaded but then go hmmmm why ill have to ask our security people to look at this and see why you were blocked.
03:21.39Dr{Wh0}then you get a bs email the next day
03:21.54Dr{Wh0}saying you had a virus
03:23.52Dr{Wh0}so then you ask ok i found it or i dont have one please unblock they ignore you or tell you to use a different port to send and they wont remove the block.
03:25.10*** join/#elinux _lifeless (n=patrick@90.150.113.209)
03:27.40Dr{Wh0}i understand the need to keep the spammers down and viri etc. but why be covert about it? just say "Hay we need to do this"
03:29.02RobotGuyYeah, I know.  I just have to ask my ISP about stuff and they tell me straight out.
03:36.57Dr{Wh0}seems like a no brainer to me..
03:48.21Dr{Wh0}ok well sysctl_check.c seems to be missing in the latest kernel i cant figure out where it went yet kdb patch wont apply blaa. ok time to get back to reality ... im out.. laterz..
03:49.59Dr{Wh0}dho.. my bad wrong patch : c ) oh well tomarrows project..
