02:21:10 | nelson | is back |
04:43:26 | LandWork | has the iPaq Linux work died down or am I dreaming? |
04:43:38 | a7r | you're dreaming. |
04:43:52 | digdude | definitely dreaming... |
04:44:00 | jacques | increasing exponentially |
04:45:05 | a7r | digdude: did you hear that the OSDN HH summit got shitcanned? |
04:45:54 | LandWork | seriously? |
04:46:03 | LandWork | how is the kernel looking? |
04:46:07 | LandWork | do they have power management working? |
04:46:15 | LandWork | to the equilivent of WindowsCE? |
04:46:19 | jacques | shit, where did reiserfs.org go??? |
04:46:45 | a7r | LandWork: Close,.. pretty soon it will be better. |
04:46:46 | digdude | a7r: yes I did. |
04:46:57 | LandWork | I has been over 8 months though ? |
04:46:57 | digdude | a7r: I vote for the first ever "West Coast Handhelds Hackfest" |
04:47:05 | digdude | a7r: in Santa Barbara, of course... |
04:47:20 | LandWork | is any work been going ahead for MIP based linux version for Casio's? |
04:47:42 | LandWork | and what about merging the strongARM kernel with other architectures etc? |
04:47:42 | a7r | digdude: Nod. I was gonna call it the ``SoCal Handhelds Developer Meet'', but Hackfest is cooler. |
04:47:54 | a7r | LandWork: yeah, work is being done. |
04:48:06 | LandWork | where can I find the Casio work? |
04:48:15 | digdude | a7r: I think "West Coast" if cooler than SoCal, because you might have people from WA, OR, NV, etc... |
04:48:26 | a7r | digdude: Yup. |
04:48:31 | digdude | a7r: plus, SoCal reminds me of gangs, high prices, smog, etc... |
04:48:44 | a7r | Hahaha |
04:48:51 | digdude | a7r: do you have dibs on an elk lodge somewhere or something? ;) |
04:49:03 | digdude | a7r: I hear your place is spacious... |
04:49:04 | a7r | digdude: Nah, we'd do it in a nice hotel if we were going to do it. |
04:49:11 | a7r | we could do it at my house. |
04:49:40 | a7r | catering is also a must. |
04:49:54 | digdude | a7r: so, I'm rsync'ing the entire handhelds.org::ftp/ tree. all 3.5G |
04:50:03 | digdude | a7r: i'm in a hotel with crazy bandwidth, they must be on a T3. |
04:50:07 | a7r | hahah |
04:50:14 | a7r | how many K you pulling a second> |
04:50:14 | a7r | ? |
04:50:43 | jacques | they aughta install cvsup |
04:50:44 | digdude | a7r: I didn't turn on --progress, so I'm not sure. let me do some serialized 'du -k's |
04:51:39 | a7r | digdude: So when is a good time for the Hackfest, sometime in July? |
04:51:50 | digdude | a7r: i'd have to guess between 320 and 400 kbps. |
04:52:12 | digdude | a7r: can any Compaq'ers show up? |
04:52:48 | a7r | digdude: not sure, I'm putting out feelers. |
04:52:56 | a7r | it depends on what we're going to do. |
04:53:16 | digdude | should be finding one of those dvd/divx irc servers, instead of linux/arm/carleton-winder-rpms/SRPMS/... |
04:53:26 | a7r | hah |
04:54:43 | digdude | a7r: but, once I have this sucker d/l'd, i'll transfer it to my server at home, and then rsync all handhelds.org:: once/week... :) |
04:55:25 | a7r | hehe |
05:02:15 | jacques | green: hi |
11:15:05 | nelson | a7r: yeah, I notice that the handhelds summit has quietly disappeared. |
12:41:26 | nikos | green: Are you around? |
16:07:11 | General_L | ppl |
16:24:50 | nikos | is away: Food |
17:29:14 | nikos | is back |
17:51:39 | mikekh77 | hi |
17:52:26 | | what's up, nikos |
17:52:26 | nikos | Hello |
17:53:33 | mikekh77 | argh. Ten seconds logged in, and already I need to be somewhere else. bbl. |
18:22:30 | halo7 | ? |
18:24:15 | nikos | Hello |
18:25:08 | halo7 | Hi |
19:02:18 | bipolar_away | is away: gone away... |
20:31:58 | BZFlag | so jamey's sound patch does resampling in software inside the kernel? Isn't that a Bad Thing(tm)? |
20:32:53 | nikos | Sounds like it, I think I will let RMK and NP voice their comments. ;) |
23:10:20 | Tangent | Hey mikekh77 |
23:10:26 | Tangent | Long time no see |
23:10:28 | mikekh77 | waves. |
23:10:51 | mikekh77 | yeah. Stuff keeping me away from the ipaq world. |
23:11:27 | mikekh77 | I'm somewhat out of the loop - hoping to catch up on the 31xx stuff, which I understand is a done deal thanks to David Neuer and some other fantastic people? |
23:11:42 | Tangent | Bad stuff... naughty stuff .... bad stuff... naugyhty stuff... ~:( |
23:11:58 | Tangent | mikekh77 : Yep... I believe it's largely OK |
23:12:10 | Tangent | I saw that there was some small problem with the jffs2 images... |
23:12:33 | Tangent | the 31xx series has a different type of flash, so required differently structured jffs2 images |
23:12:46 | mikekh77 | right. |
23:13:38 | mikekh77 | When I last heard from David, he said that there was also a problem with the ipaq not being able to download all of the 16 meg images, though that might well have been the same deal. |
23:14:15 | Tangent | There's a workaround for it now anyhow |
23:14:41 | mikekh77 | is that documented somewhere? |
23:15:02 | mikekh77 | I'm only on digest mode these days - too many mailing lists. |
23:15:29 | mikekh77 | I'm doing some stuff with Mac OS X... and a bit with Ruby. Too much mail traffic. |
23:15:41 | Tangent | mikekh77 : not documented... you just tell mkfs.jffs2 to use 0x20000 for eraseblock size instead of0x40000 |
23:16:08 | mikekh77 | OK... *notes that down* |
23:16:13 | jacques | Tangent: is display working on 31xx yet? |
23:16:21 | Tangent | jacques : Not sure.... |
23:16:58 | Tangent | jacques : I spend all day working on intimate today :) |
23:17:11 | mikekh77 | I got the impression that the display was working now. |
23:17:27 | jacques | Tangent: I get tomorrow off!!! |
23:17:34 | jacques | Tangent: because I was oncal this week |
23:17:36 | mikekh77 | I'll have to drop David (and Ignacio, was it?) a line. |
23:17:53 | jacques | mikekh77: that would be cool if it is working |
23:17:54 | mikekh77 | don't want to be too much of a hassle since I'm not really able to help directly :( |
23:18:01 | mikekh77 | yeah. |
23:18:22 | mikekh77 | though, my 31xx is only just recovering from my having left it for a very long time, with the switch in the 'on' position. |
23:18:33 | jacques | mikekh77: heh :-\ |
23:18:35 | mikekh77 | battery seems to be conditioned properly now though. |
23:19:29 | mikekh77 | this is completely and utterly off topic, but I must say that Spirit Of The Century by The Blind Boys Of Alabama is totally bloomin' fantastic. |
23:19:43 | mikekh77 | kept me in a fine mood all evening. |
23:20:00 | Tangent | has been listening to C64 classics all day |
23:24:37 | mikekh77 | I'm going to have to try all this stuff... *writes note to david neuer* |
23:27:07 | mikekh77 | it'll be good to wipe CE off it, anyhow. |
23:27:17 | mikekh77 | I'm horribly addicted to Solitaire. |
23:28:43 | mikekh77 | I'm buying the first bits of an 802.11 network tomorrow. Trying to get my dad to get into using a PC. However, if he has to go sit at it in the spare room, he'll never use it. |
23:29:58 | mikekh77 | so I'll get a card for the ipaq too, at some point. Have there been any actual success stories with that CF card from Symbol? |
23:30:31 | Tangent | what chipset is it? |
23:31:31 | jacques | mikekh77: it's not available yet |
23:31:44 | mikekh77 | jacques: ah. |
23:32:04 | mikekh77 | It's the same chipset as a preexisting PCMCIA card, if I'm not mistaken. |
23:32:24 | mikekh77 | Presumably there are power consumption issues, though? |
23:32:41 | jacques | mikekh77: only that it uses same amount of power as pcmcia |
23:32:52 | jacques | mikekh77: because the limiting factor is the transmitter |
23:33:02 | mikekh77 | jacques: right. |
23:33:13 | jacques | mikekh77: however - it's supposed to have some cool powersaving modes in the CE driver |
23:33:29 | jacques | mikekh77: if you could control the transmission power, that would be very cool |
23:33:30 | mikekh77 | is that going to be something that can be supported without the extra battery that the PCMCIA sleeve adds? |
23:33:55 | jacques | mikekh77: excellent question - tho it works under CE in that configuration |
23:34:26 | mikekh77 | OK, I'll probably wait and see. |
23:35:17 | mikekh77 | don't think I'll be quite up to speed with the ipaq for a bit yet, anyway. Big problem is going to be resisting the temptation to buy all sorts of gadgetry when I'm in LA in july :) |
23:37:44 | mikekh77 | is handing over the maintenance of his XML parser to someone else... anyone know much about multiple project admins on freshmeat.net ? |
23:43:32 | mikekh77 | isn't even sure it's possible. Hrm. |
23:50:34 | mikekh77 | bummer. Freshmeat only seems to support a single project owner. |
23:54:42 | mikekh77 | OK, time I was away. |
23:54:46 | mikekh77 | wavea |
23:54:54 | mikekh77 | waves, too. |
23:55:04 | Tangent | You going? |
23:55:08 | Tangent | Guess so. |
