00:21.55immoloThank fuck for that
00:22.29immololast time I broke my xda it took two months for them to send me a new one
00:23.11bhima^hmm?
00:23.33immolothe thing stop working for an hour
00:23.44immolowouldn't turn on or charge
00:25.56bhima^That doesn't sound very pleaseant.
00:26.06bhima^What happend with your xda? Two months is a long time to wait.
00:26.36immoloI got very drunk and dropped it down the toilet
00:27.02immolothe screen doesn't like to get wet
00:27.02bhima^Oops.
00:27.36immoloyeah lucky my insurcene covers all that
00:27.53immoloor it really would of been ?500 down the pan
00:30.10bhima^That's good, though two monthis is lame.
00:31.15immoloThat's o2 fault really as soon as they deemed it out of their hands the company took it to there people and sent a new unit out to me within 3 days
00:31.30immoloit's the annoying thing with UK providers
00:33.24immoloanyway to double check I need usbnet support to be able to talk to the pda from the host right?
00:35.40bhima^I don't remember. I'm sorry. I'm not very familiar with the bootup process.
00:36.08bhima^and I need to go now. Meeting in 8 hours, and I want to sleep.
00:41.41immolook
00:41.41immolobye

10:35.12rob_w-cgihey bhima^
10:35.23rob_w-cgiwas on lunch sorry
10:37.39bhima^I need to eat some lunch too. Be back in a few minutes.
10:37.53bhima^hrm. I think I need to reboot this computer.
10:38.08rob_w-cgisure
10:38.09bhima^because linux has totally fux0red the USB serial stuff.
10:38.31bhima^won't unload the driver cause it's in-use.
10:38.33rob_w-cgiyeah usb seems still general problems every where
10:38.35bhima^but it's not.
10:38.50bhima^it pretends to work when I plug in my pda2k...
10:38.56bhima^but won't actually work.

12:19.24rob_w-cgire
12:21.55bhimaMy h6300 has a big-ass battery which should last for a long, long time. my blueangel has more DRAM, faster CPU, and a keyboard built-in.
12:28.46rob_w-cgiah the 6300 was also in my choice list but then i chose the BA

14:54.24cp15Maybe they change the server?
14:54.45cp15Now i get a sql error
14:55.41cp15BTW: cr2 (which has most likely the same display as you) will test the new fb driver
14:58.04bhimaNo DNS for it.
15:10.36rob_w-cgixda is back for me
15:10.59rob_w-cgicool let him test the fb ! good idea !
15:18.09rob_w-cgibut nonethe less i will boot that kernel today evening ..
15:51.32clmntchbhima: i know
15:51.42clmntchbhima: what all works on the blueangel?
15:51.49clmntchor a good link to a good status page?
15:52.46bhimaThe channel topic has the best links that I am aware of.
15:53.28clmntchi don't see anything in those links about audio
15:54.04bhimaI don't _think_ that audio is working right now. The mixer is able to be manipulated into feeding telephony audio to the speaker, however.
15:54.39bhimabluetooth and wifi are not curently working. It has been suggested that this may change very soon.
16:01.21rob_w-cgibbl at home
16:01.49cp15And... I think I got data transfer
16:01.53cp15via gsm
16:01.59bhimawoot!
16:02.12cp15At least I can see the ppp control chars in the dpram
16:03.38*** part/#htc-blueangel rob_w-cgi (n=txuser@dd1010.kasserver.com)
16:06.20bhimaok. I'm going to try out stuff using the modem emulator thing over USB to my linux box, and see if I can actually make it connect via PPP to GPRS.
16:06.44bhimaremind me what the dpram actually is?
16:09.18cp15It is probably a dual ported ram between gsm cpu and main cpu
16:09.35cp15It seems the uart is only for protocol and the dpram is used to transfer the actual data
16:11.35bhimaInteresting. I wonder why. Do you think they feed audio data over it?
16:12.47cp15Absolutely. The bluetooth chip IMO does not have an analog input/output
16:15.15bhimaThe other option would be to digitize the audio using the device's ADC.
16:15.33bhimaAlmost all BT chipsets do have audio IO of some kind.
16:16.17bhimaAt least, every one I've looked at has had a PCM interface of some sort.
16:16.55cp15Unfortunately a datasheet is not available
16:21.46cp15Then again: Maybe it isn't used for audio transfer... The TX Buffer seems a bit small
16:22.35bhimaIt's worth noting that the device appears unable to do phone audio and system audio over bluetooth.
16:22.38bhimaIt will only route the phone.
16:24.54cp15But the ringtone has to be transmitted via bluetooth, I think. So there seems to be the possibility to transmit digital audio via bluetooth
16:25.31bhimaYou can make a headset emit its own ring tone via RFCOMM, AFAIK.
16:25.49cp15Ah... Do you know which ringtone you can hear?
16:25.49bhimaI _think_ you can just send it RING or something :)
16:26.01bhimaI don't remember. I'll check in a moment.
16:30.03bhimaheadset's built-in ring toone.
16:31.15cp15hmmm... what a pity
16:32.12bhimaSO that would _tend_ to suggest that they do something like route the PCM audio data over the BT module's PCM IF. Not definite, though.
16:32.43cp15I think I will try something: Build up a BT connection and boot linux. If the connection stops, it is probably transferred via software, if not, via hardware
16:33.20cp15Also i think its worth a try to look if some of the dma registers point to dpram
16:33.41bhimaRight now I'm goiing to see if I can do GPRS.
16:34.02bhimaEven if the audio is done via hardware, I don't know how much handshaking is needed.
16:34.08cp15But even if it is in hardware we have to find out how to switch from microphone and speaker to BT
16:34.28bhimaRight.
16:34.36cp15Yeah, and there is one additional reason to have it done in hardware: The timing
16:35.22cp15if you do the transfer in software BT will always be a bit ahead or behind gsm and you have to stuff in or drop some data
16:36.08cp15OTOH i have heard BT was very problematic in early BAs. That votes for the software solution
16:36.27bhimaThe h6300 is done in software, it would appear.
16:36.36bhimaYou can mix system audio during phone calls.
16:36.50cp15I see
16:39.51cp15Is the "call waiting" signal also generated from the headset itself?
16:40.53bhimaHmm. dunno.
16:42.32cp15I think I will check
16:49.16bhimaok. it worked.
16:49.27bhimaGPRS using WModem, that is.
16:49.47bhimaNow it's definitely possible that wmodem does weird, bizarre things with the interfaces.
16:53.55cp15I think I will eat something
16:54.06bhimaI need to head home shortly.
16:54.16cp15You are still at work?
16:54.28bhimayeah. Though I didn't come in to work till 11am.

18:04.25cp15Not for me, thank cr2

18:04.36immoloeven though I modprobed it any everything
18:04.47immolotoo many c based named :P
18:04.56cp15:-)
18:06.09immoloThere was one thing though is there a way to force an ssh connect though a cetain interface on the host system
18:06.34immolomy named system messes up connecting to the pda
18:07.23cp15I don't think so, you have to setup the routing properly
18:08.48immolothe only way I can thing of is to connect from the server and have give it full access to the networkl
18:09.34cp15How does your network setup look like`
18:09.35cp15?
18:18.56immolosorry had to finish some wasihng quick
18:20.00immolomy network is just a dhcpd with named so any computer that gets an ip uses the server for dns
18:27.08cp15And your problem with ssh is?
18:27.31immolomy pda is connected to the laptop
18:28.27immolohmm I've got an idea
18:29.47immoloI'll test it out in a little bit

20:13.32cp15bhima: Bluetooth audio is transfered via hardware :-(
20:15.02cp15It continued to work until linux shut bluetooth down and also I have seen the data from my last transfer in the dpram, and no audio data
21:06.40cp15Yeahhh.... Bluetooth is working
21:16.20bhimaSo is it just a standard UART device, or is there something special?
21:17.28cp15It is a standard uart device, but you have to turn on the power to the chip first (of course...) and use hciattach with device "texas"
21:22.19bhimaInteresting. Do you have any idea how the wince semi-sleep bluetooth stuff works?
21:23.14cp15Semi sleep?
21:24.16bhimaYeah. When the device is "off" you can still send OBEX stuff.
21:24.20bhimaand just about anything else.
21:24.28bhimabut it's...not that reliable.
21:24.34bhimaAs in, long transfers won't work.
21:25.18cp15Ah... Well... There are 2 bits to enable the chip. Probably one for the chip itself and one for the radio
21:26.22cp15If you disable the radio (hopefully the transmitter only) the chip will still get requests. You can then wakeup the device, receive and process the message and go to sleep again
21:26.35bhimaThe h6300 doesn't do that. It's one of my favorite features, since that makes it easy for my pen to work without having to turn it on.
21:27.34cp15I see
21:27.49cp15The dpram is only half working. I can only receive data :-(
21:28.33bhimaie: I pull out my pen, scribble stuff, tap "send" and it then it sends an OBEX message with my data. I have Python code that processes the file.
21:29.11bhimaInteresting. I got PPP handshaking working using WModem.
21:30.01cp15I think I have to look closer how the setup of the dpram is when windows has an active connection
21:31.36bhimaI did notice that it _seems_ that WModem knows when the link is shut down.
21:32.01bhimaThat would tend to suggest something strange like dpram transfers.
21:33.06cp15Can you tell from the following text whether BT supports audio?

21:40.34bhimaSounds like it's not very important.
21:45.26cp15:-) I see. I have already thought this means it doesn't support audio
21:45.58bhimaIn most cases, I believe the problem is that the interface needs to be fast enough.
21:51.02cp15The uart runs at 921600 baud on windows. Unfortunately it runs only at 115200 on linux, since the command to tell the chip "We want a higher rate" is missing
21:51.55bhimaOk. I think that will need to be fixed before BT audio will work.
21:52.42bhimaWhat do you mean, the command is missing...?

22:04.08cp15Yes, they don't work. The initialisation fails
22:07.51cp15I will ask the person who programmed the texas vendor code. Probably he knows the command
22:08.07bhimaYeah, that's a good idea. It sounds like it should be pretty easy to fix with the right magic.
22:11.59cp15Do you know how to connect to a headset? sdptool browse gives a "operation not supported" on it
22:13.53bhimaIs it discoverable?
22:14.04cp15Yes
22:14.39cp15And I can browse the sd of other devices, but not the headset
