10:49.50oho_Good morning
10:50.40cp15Hi oho
11:01.35oho_hi cp15
15:26.07cp15Oh no, soon I will be alone
15:26.26cp15~say But I am here
15:26.27aptBut I am here
15:26.34cp15At least
15:27.58ohoand me ;-)
15:28.30ohoI am just writing down which commands fall into which category
15:28.58ohoonce I am finished I will send you the list to double check
15:31.04cp15AT commands or gomunicator functions?
15:31.54ohoAT commands
15:32.17ohoand what we have to do in respond to them
15:32.51cp15Then please extend the wiki at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlueangelGSM
15:33.11cp15if it fits in there
15:33.37ohothis is where I am getting the meaning of the AT commands from
15:33.51ohoonce finished I will put the list up there
15:36.26cp15It doesn't have to be really finished. Often other people see someone working on a page and contribute
15:36.46ohook - will do

15:47.56ohoHi _cronos_
15:53.39_cronos_hi
15:59.37cp15Hi _cronos_, since you got your BA sucessfully installed, is there any project related to the BA where you want to help?
16:01.32_cronos_if i can help :p
16:01.43_cronos_say me
16:03.08cp15Well, what experience do you have?
16:03.21_cronos_i am a programmer :p
16:03.26_cronos_in windows platform
16:03.28cp15In which area?
16:03.41_cronos_in france
16:04.06cp15Ah... No, your country is not important :-)
16:04.51_cronos_ok
16:04.52_cronos_lol
16:05.01_cronos_In which area? langage ?
16:05.17_cronos_i don t realy understand the mining of the question
16:05.19cp15Well, maybe you can pickup a idea which cr2 had some time ago: Integrate kernel, initrd and startup.txt as resources in haret, so you just have a single file
16:05.19_cronos_lol
16:05.34_cronos_ok
16:05.36_cronos_:p
16:05.40_cronos_i can trie that
16:06.02cp15In which area you are a programmer? GUI, Embedded Systems, whatever... But you already answered the question
16:06.14_cronos_k :P
16:06.51cp15Maybe there is a better word than "area"... Hmm...
16:07.02_cronos_purapse
16:09.23ohocronos do you know:  C , C++, Java, Visual Basic (is that a language ;-) , etc..... ?
16:10.37ohocp15: I just found a goto in the code - arggg
16:11.05_cronos_Visual Basic (is that a language ;-) lol
16:11.06cp15Hihi, have you read a recent slashdot story: Goto speeds up your code?
16:11.18_cronos_c c++ java soon vb .... vb .net c#
16:11.23_cronos_purapse soon delphi
16:11.31_cronos_and j# soon too
16:11.55ohocp15: maybe, but it can get really messy
16:12.54cp15No, it was just joke... It was a math library programmed by someone named Goto Something
16:13.21ohocp15: which prog would you use to talk to the GSM modem for testing out a few of the commands ? is there a terminal prog in the distro ?
16:13.48cp15Hmmm... A terminal program is not enough
16:13.51ohocp15: a ok, like a lot of paper which have sex in the title
16:14.26ohoI might write a little test script using term
16:14.29cp15You need the encapsulation. But I can send you my gsm.sh which emulates a little terminal program
16:14.45ohothat would be very useful
16:14.57ohoI like to test all commands before I put them into the code
16:15.07ohoand to find out the exact replies
16:17.02ohothanks
16:17.06cp15You can terminate it with ctrl-c
16:17.14cp15But you need a killall dd after that
16:17.37cp15If you look into the code you probably know why :-)
16:17.51ohook cheers
16:18.29cp15I have to go shopping now and will be back in half an hour
16:18.37ohook - see you

20:15.43FunklordI will need to pull down the gnulinux.biz server for about 1-2h during this week
20:16.09Funklordneed to change some raid drives, and set up at the same time
20:16.30Funklordno, worries, I'll report before I do it
20:16.35Funklord=P
20:18.54_cronos_some body know if it s exist a spv m3000 or qtek 9100 sim unlocker ?
20:19.07cp15Funklord: No problem
20:20.23rob_wFunklord, nice , what raid card do you use ?
20:22.19Funklordraid5
20:22.21Funklorderm
20:22.27Funklordlinux raid =P
20:23.02rob_whardware or software
20:23.08Funklordsoftware
20:23.19Funklordthe one built into linux
20:23.32rob_wnice , feels good to have disks for that !
20:24.11Funklordcan't see a reason to buy hardware raid controllers anymore
20:24.47rob_wwell beside off loading the cpu , there is not too many
20:25.01rob_wi work for a hardware raid card manufacturer
20:25.32Funklordthey often use proprietary or wierd formats on the hdd, so you need a similar card if it breaks
20:26.05rob_wsure , you need meta data
20:26.27FunklordI used to sell nas, das etc. solutions before
20:26.40rob_wwe do have long  3 years hardware warranty so that should do the trick for some time
20:26.42Funklordmicrostorage, tandberg
20:27.10rob_wnice , i am supporting these kinda stuff now ..
20:27.51Funklordthe raid code hasn't failed me a single time
20:28.05FunklordI've been pulling out the drives on the fly
20:28.18rob_wheeh it does never , but the disks do !?!
20:28.39rob_w?
20:28.46Funklordthey rebuilt fine after that and didn't lose any files
20:29.04Funklordso something they're doing is right =P
20:29.25FunklordI'm going to test the raid6 code next time I buy hdds
20:29.37Funklordprobably a 6-8x250gb array
20:30.01Funklordyay!
20:30.27rob_wif it is reall hot data , still prepare to have offsite backups !
20:30.43Funklordreal men don't use backups =P
20:31.05Funklordheh, yeah, I got my tape robots coming in soon
20:31.09rob_wthese days the drives sizes grow quick and we see more and more people loosing data as they only have one copy .
20:31.36rob_weven raidsets are not meant tobe all time backups , they are meant to serve data redundant
20:32.12rob_wmost customers freak out when i tell them this !
20:33.08Funklordwell, if someone just acquired raid, it's usually a good idea to congratulate them, so they don't start thinking data storage is futile =P
20:33.18Funklordsmall steps =P
20:33.37Funklordmost people I know, have no redundancy what so ever
20:33.58Funklordif their hdd crashes, they lose everything
20:34.31Funklordmy workmate lost all his work on a crashed laptop drive last friday
20:35.05Funklordhe's not one of my favourite co-workers so... =P
20:35.16rob_woh
20:35.35rob_whe probaby
20:35.46Funklordhe's a pain in the ass coder, who never produces any results and puts all the workload on others
20:35.51rob_wscrewed it up himlsef with M$
20:36.55rob_wwhen does a beginner coder start getting a good coder in your view ?
20:36.55FunklordI rewrote this interface to fit my code, so you rewrite all the existing code to fit the new interface, ok?
20:37.50Funklordrob_w: when they understand that there's always something new that needs to be learned
20:39.04Funklordalso, it depends, some people work awesomely alone, and are terrible when co-operating, or vice versa
20:39.13rob_wi had once a guy who was good but when i mentioned that this software was made by many as a team , he was the one standing up " .. but this i did , and this and this
20:40.34Funklordhehe, a bit childish, but funny
20:40.36rob_wthen in his eager mind he run out and posted all that , not seeing that we already moved on quite far after he "stopped " producing progress
20:41.08Funklordhehe
20:41.51rob_wso somethign are linux coders but dont get the "community thing " whatsoever
20:42.50rob_wanyway , if all works out well , i might get back to fulltime coding soon and stop the stupid "hotline " thingi
20:43.02Funklordyou're a hotline coder?
20:43.19rob_wwell , wished-tobe-coder hotliner
20:43.26rob_wi would say ..
20:43.59rob_wbut i am still in that stage where i need tons pratice , which i only get on full time
20:45.03Funklordso, you've not coded for very long?
20:45.33rob_wmaybe you can count 2 years of full time coding but not in a team unfortunately
20:45.48FunklordI had the image, that you were like the shiznit of code =)
20:45.56rob_whad people assisting me or participating , but not a real team in that sense
20:46.27rob_whehe , well i know my stuff , so still you can bring it on to me
20:47.01Funklordcool, I think 2yrs is more than enough to go pro
20:47.23rob_wand i might be able to life from it soon again ( and feed a wife and 2 kids ) . That makes me already happy
20:47.50Funklordcan you find a linux job?
20:48.14FunklordI turned my windows job into a linux job
20:48.17rob_wwell for me it is : i need more time to spend then i would get into a good speed soon i hope
20:48.30rob_wi ve one
20:48.44Funklordconvinced them that they _need_ a linux port (I'm the only one who knows linux)
20:49.03rob_wyeah , that was what i did !
20:49.44rob_wand it was good that i did the port and it was just fine , but the stupids did not manage to sell the crap
20:49.55Funklord=/
20:50.05rob_wthat then brought me into the support hotline again
20:50.57Funklordunlucky
20:51.39Funklordin my experience, it's rare that any kind of pro-active sales or marketing sells linux software
20:52.05FunklordI made sure to find the customers that want it, and are asking us for it now

22:35.13rob_wur patches also compile here
22:35.21llangeGreat news =)
22:35.30llangeDoes it still boot ? =)
22:35.37llangeNo regression ? =)
22:38.15rob_wdid not boot yet
22:38.46rob_walso i domt have a himalya
22:39.41llangeI was talking of BA, does it still boot after the modif I've done on the common code ? It should of course, but regression is still possible.
22:47.55rob_wsure , regression is fine !!  i will need to do that tomorrow
22:48.58llangeno probs. =)
