02:47.50markwarmi :P
02:47.55markmy brain is too preoccupied :)
02:49.43warmimark: yeah .. making a lot of dough with this game
02:49.43warmihehe
02:49.52warmino wonder you are "preocupied"
02:50.07marki just had a sale with a c-700 listed as the device, didn't realise they were for sale yet
02:50.55treke|homemight have been bigboss :)
02:50.55warmiI don't think they are out
02:51.02markno, its japanese
02:51.02warmiat least that's what Jason said
02:51.14warmithere were only like 2 devices in the whole world according to him
02:52.50markyeah. thats what i thought.  and its not an @sharp.jp address
02:54.02warmiif you think of it ... you could get like 3 c700 for that money you made with Knights ..
02:54.23warmiand I remember you were wondering if it was worth it to charge for it ..
02:55.12Neo|Workthey are for sale
02:55.15Neo|Workand mind you, sold out
02:55.21warmiwhere ?
02:55.28Neo|WorkIn Japan of course. :P
02:55.43warmiI just read Jason comments about only 2 existing C700 like couple of weeks ago
02:55.49Neo|Workwent on sale last Friday
02:55.53warmireally ?
02:55.57markwarmi: yeah, i remember that :)
02:55.57Neo|Workyes
02:55.58DaWormyeah
02:56.02DaWormthey just went out
02:56.04Neo|Workditto with the SL-5600 equivalent
02:56.05warmithat quite fast - going from 2 prototypes to production
02:56.14kergothb500, yeah i've got a user who wants OZ on it
02:56.17kergothheh
02:56.21kergothas if we even have kernel sources yet
02:56.27DaWormhehe
02:56.34DaWormlet him donate stuff
02:56.53Neo|Workah, they just added the C700 and  B500 to Handango
02:57.02Neo|Workweren't there a few days ago when I added Motocross Stunt Racer
02:57.24DaWormNeo|Work: of course, you'll target those platforms as well when you get yours?
02:57.32warmiNeoTron: btw Motocross graphics looks really amazing
02:57.37warmiit is 2d , right ?
02:57.42Neo|Workwarmi: voxels..
02:57.47DaWormvolume pixel stuff
02:57.49Neo|Workit's a rendered landscape yes
02:57.49DaWormhehe
02:57.57Neo|Workmeaning not 3D landscape
02:58.14DaWormit has a good perspective though
02:58.18DaWormgreat illussion
02:58.20Neo|Workyeah, quite
02:58.23warmiwell, voxels are 3d 0 in the sense that you have height map + x + y position
02:58.28warmiso it is 3d of sorts
02:58.29kergothMSR, i shoudl buy that
02:58.59Neo|WorkMSR is nice because the difficulty is imho quite good
02:59.03DaWormi cant wait for Hyperspace too
02:59.07DaWormyah
02:59.08Neo|Workstarts out relatively easy getting challenging in the end
02:59.14DaWormi can't even go 1st place on the demo
02:59.27kergothi never did buy IF or a couple others i wanted
02:59.29Neo|WorkDaWorm: ouch. :P But, you don't need first place to continue
02:59.32warmithese voxels look great .. normally you get effect of pixelation like old Commanche game for PC
02:59.35warmibut these look great
02:59.43Neo|WorkDaWorm: in either case, it's quite easy if you take the shortcut

03:00.34Pendalarbetter start pimpin

03:00.48kergothNeo|Work: ohhhh yeah
03:00.48Neo|Workthey ARE fun when it is time to pay taxes though
03:00.58Neo|Workbecause you can save a heck of a whole lof
03:00.59kergothi havent had my first year's tax time since buying the house yet
03:01.05DaWormNeo|Work: i just wonder though, my wife is a zaurus user too...can i install a single app in 2 devices?
03:01.06Neo|Workanyhow, going home
03:01.25Neo|Workyou CAN. it's up to you to decide if you feel it to be morally correct
03:01.37kergothwarmi: trying to have a real life, work full time, manage OZ, and learn kernel dev, is tough
03:01.38DaWormright gotcha..just making sure
03:01.43markhmm, is networking two zaurii via IR possible?
03:01.50Neo|Workit really ISN't but I obviously can't stop you (if I could I would - i.e if there was a unique user id or something)

03:04.40warmiI mean, just a couple of years ago you didn't even know what kernel was ..
03:04.47warmiheh
03:04.55DaWormheh
03:04.57kergothwell, i was building them in 94/95 in HS
03:05.01kergothso i knew what they were
03:05.02kergoth;)
03:05.06warmiHS ?
03:05.09kergothcourse i didnt learn C until 2 years ago
03:05.10kergothhigh school
03:05.10DaWormwow
03:05.15warmiah , right
03:05.17DaWormin HS i was reading playboy
03:05.17kergoth14/15 at the time
03:05.22kergothDaWorm: well that too
03:05.23markkergoth: writing in what?
03:05.23kergothhehe
03:05.29warmiso what kind o language were you using ?
03:05.54mark;)
03:05.56kergothat 8 i was coding in basic, wanted to learn c desperately but never did
03:05.59warmiDaWorm: reading? .. well, that's pushing it
03:06.05kergothdidnt code for about 6 years
03:06.10DaWormok i was reading the articles
03:06.11kergothlearned visual basic. eww.
03:06.12DaWormhehe
03:06.20kergothdidnt code for another year, learned x86 assembly, had fun with that
03:06.26kergoththen didnt code again for about 4 years
03:06.29kergoththat brings us up to date
03:06.29kergothheh
03:06.43warmikergoth: yeah, the natural way is to start with asm and then progress to C and then to all that OO stuff
03:06.45DaWormi almost went to law school after college
03:06.54warmithat way you know exactly dos and don'ts ...
03:07.00kergothwarmi: yep
03:07.02warmistuff that objects just don't come out of nowhere etc ..
03:07.04kergothwarmi: basic fucked me up
03:07.18kergothwarmi: but learning asm, then c, then c++ has straightened me back out
03:07.19kergoth:)
03:07.24marki've learnt in the worst possible way.  basic straight to Qt stuff
03:07.26warmia lot of coders , especially Java dudes, don't really understand what lies beneath
03:07.41kergothi cant stand doing something without knowing whats going on underneith
03:07.43kergothit just bothers me
03:07.47warmihmm ... looks like everyone still starts with basic
03:08.07warmijust like it was 15 years ago when I started
03:08.27warmiexcept these days basic is kick ass OO with all kinds of nonsense on top of it
03:08.34kergothi remember writing a app to calculate PI at 11, that was fun
03:08.42kergothhad to study a lot to understand what i needed to do
03:08.58DaWormmore than you needed to at the age i assume
03:09.01DaWorm:)
03:09.05kergothof course
03:09.08kergothit wouldve been boring otherwise
03:09.40warmiat 11 I was running from tree to tree fighting either Imperial Troopers or some other menace ..
03:09.47DaWormahhh when i was at that age, all i cared about was nintendo and bmx
03:09.57warmiDaWorm: same here
03:10.03DaWormand transformers
03:10.05DaWormhehe
03:10.20DaWormand he-man
03:10.40kergothwell i did all that too
03:10.52kergothjust on the weekends, i'd go to my dads house. he had a computer :)
03:11.00Pendalarwhat is the default usb connection ip in qtopia?
03:11.23warmimark: so , are you going to buy c700 ?
03:11.25PendalarI seem to have messed with it and 'revert' doesn't revert
03:12.09markwarmi: tempted.  but by the time i pay shipping/import tax its very expensive

03:13.08kergothyep.
03:13.09markkergoth: or i could take up a challenge and try and get OZ running on it :)
03:13.18warmiand , if Sharp ever decides to release official US/European version of C700 there gonna be issues with compatibility etc ..
03:13.19kergothmark: get me the kernel sources and we're done.
03:13.24kergothmark: :)
03:13.41markkergoth: not released yet?
03:13.59kergothmark: itll be months no doubt
03:14.03kergothmark: same way the 5000d was
03:14.08DaWormdeveloper site doesnt have it yet eh
03:14.09markwarmi: software hardcoded to 240x320?
03:14.18warmineo said something about C700 being available on amazon ?
03:14.43warmiuh .. handango ..
03:14.45warminever mind
03:14.59markkergoth: hmm, just need to get someone to ask for it.. does the GPL allow them to take months? :)
03:14.59warmias a category for developers
03:15.16markchouimat: wine?
03:15.24warmimark: not so much hardcoded screen size but there will be many other issues..
03:15.31chouimatmark: not winshit on another box
03:15.33warmidoes anyone which Qte/Qtopia version C700 will run ?
03:15.44markiirc harlekin thought it was 1.5 again
03:16.09warmimeaning good old qt 2.3.2  hehe
03:16.20warmiwithout all that "cool" qt 3.x stuff
03:17.02marksharp shoulda moved to qt3 and gcc3.2 for the 5600 while the user base is still small.
03:17.39warmiwell, perhaps ..
03:18.02warmion the other hand they do have 500+ apps available for 5500 devices
03:18.04marki just see the move getting harder and harder rather than easier and easier
03:18.15kergothwarmi: 90% of which only need slight changes to build with gcc3.2 and qt3
03:18.23warmikergoth: yeah but someone has to do it
03:18.42marksomeone would *have* to do it for commercial software if they wanted to continue selling.  so they would
03:18.45kergothwarmi: the open source ones are easy. shit i'll do it and add half of them into the oz feeds directly
03:18.49kergothmark: right
03:19.06warmikergoth: well, I am not saying that it would be difficult but it would take some time

03:22.30warmiI mean, how much time can your average Trolls developer spend developing go game for Qtopia
03:22.30warmihehe
03:23.09warmiis gomoku the same as go ?
03:23.20markvariant maybe
03:23.36DaWormits almost the same
03:23.41warmiThe game is currently available for the Qtopia application environment for handheld computers on Linux, X11 on Linux and for MS Windows desktop systems.
03:23.41DaWormexcept the chinese game has a smaller board
03:23.43numatrixwarmi: board size is the difference
03:23.55warmithat's interesting .... windows version running under Qtopia enviroment ?
03:24.00markhow good are computers at go?

03:28.06markthey want me to pay an upfront fee which includes a certain number of sales which i dont have to pay them commission and then split revenue after that
03:28.16warmimark: that's risky ..

03:28.26markwarmi: i know.  i'm not gonna do it.
03:28.43marknumatrix: they have additional courses for iGolf and not for iGolf2 basically.
03:29.09DaWormhey that game looks great

05:56.24frogmanon my laptop, that is
05:56.27TheMasterMind1just enter the key..
05:56.37frogmanjust one key?
05:56.42TheMasterMind1there should only be one
05:56.45TheMasterMind1for your network
05:56.51TheMasterMind1all the nodes on the wifi network use the same key
05:59.25frogmanok, i think i can get to it
05:59.39frogmani remember the password i used for the laptops, but not the key
05:59.57TheMasterMind1hmm
06:00.01TheMasterMind1i think you need to enter the pass
06:00.04TheMasterMind1not the key
06:00.49frogmanthat's the problem.  if i enter the password, it isn't accepted
06:01.09frogmanalso, is it necessary to setup the software on windows?

09:31.19BZFlagshould be possible to map to a vfat mmc/sd/cf card but that's not as useful.

11:06.20George-Piete: heh. I'm gonna wait for a SledgeHammer too :)
11:06.31ZxcvbPiete: yeah
11:06.41ZxcvbPiete: got a 2nd degree burn from one, even with the fan/heatsink on
11:06.59George-Zxcvb: from what?
11:07.21Zxcvbk6-2
11:07.22Zxcvbor was that k6
11:07.31George-oh right
11:07.32Pieteyea, I had a cyrix once that burned me 10 minutes after the system was powered down
11:07.38George-This K6-2 is very cold :)
11:07.46George-The G4 PowerBook gets *VERY* hot
11:08.00ZxcvbGeorge-: enough to burn your dick?
11:08.04George-probably
11:08.07ZxcvbGeorge-: like the P4 laptops

11:08.44ZxcvbGeorge-: what's the point of a laptop if you can't use it on top of your lap?
11:08.46George-All my machines with the exception of 2 are AMDs
11:08.53George-Zxcvb: I dunno
11:09.04Johnmcl7I like my one a lot, it's the only PC I've kept for over a year
11:09.05George-Zxcvb: I normally put a book on my lap then put the laptop on top of it
11:09.22George-Zxcvb: I don't like using my laptop as a heat source :)
11:09.41George-Johnmcl7: I kept my Athlon 600 for 3 years
11:09.48George-Johnmcl7: then I decided to go and upgrade it
11:10.00smee|wrkmy i8100 is like that; lap + cushion + laptop
11:10.21George-My tibook has never burnt me though
11:10.29George-given me an electric shock: yes, burned me: no
11:10.45Zxcvbat least the Z is cool
11:10.51Zxcvbhow long does the Z battery last?
11:10.52George-lol
11:10.55George-2-3 hours
11:10.59George-bbiab
11:11.12smee|wrkcan control the fans though - both on full all the time gets it cool :)
11:11.12Zxcvbeven when running SDL software like exult/doom?
11:14.11PieteZxcvb: well, I get around 1:30 when I use the CPU extensively and at low brightness
11:14.23PieteZxcvb: but I have a battery pack in my backpack
11:14.42ZxcvbPiete: do exult and doom use the CPU extensively?
11:15.00PieteZxcvb: so I just have a think wire from the backpack to the zaurus, and I have enought power to last me at least 12 hours at full bright + wireless

11:26.16George-k
11:26.39PieteZxcvb: its a homebrew pack that uses 4 C cells, and I have a resistor to bring it down a bit
11:26.51PieteZxcvb: I have an article on how to make one somewhere
11:26.56Pietelemme just dig it out
11:26.58ZxcvbPiete: ah, no voltage regulator?
11:28.31Pietewell, I just keep it below 5v, and it seems to work pretty well
11:29.07ZxcvbPiete: you won't be able to fully run the Z with that
11:29.14George-http://www.gamespy.com/top10/december02/grails/index4.shtml
11:29.14George-hah
11:29.31ZxcvbPiete: the Z's charging system can handle too low power?
11:29.46PieteZxcvb: I know, its does not 'run' of the battery back, it basicaly just extends the normal battery
11:30.13ZxcvbPiete: won't that damage the charging system?
11:30.36George-Zxcvb: it just acts in the same way as a power cord
11:30.44PieteI've been using it for well over a month, and everything seems happy
11:30.46ZxcvbGeorge-: except that it could be 4V
11:30.55ZxcvbGeorge-: the power cord is 5V
11:31.00George-Zxcvb: instead of sticking it into the mains with a whacking great transformer, it runs off batteries
11:31.11ZxcvbGeorge-: some devices can be damaged by too low voltage
11:31.32George-hrmm
11:31.37ZxcvbGeorge-: is the Z that way?
11:31.37George-It takes a 6V DC input irrc
11:31.41George-s/irrc/iirc
11:31.42ZxcvbGeorge-: 5V
11:31.49ZxcvbGeorge-: but what if you only input say, 4V
11:32.10George-I dunno
11:32.24George-He said he only just keeps it below 5V
11:32.38George-so it's prolly at like, 4.7V which wouldn't really make a difference
11:32.57ZxcvbGeorge-: until the batteries start to drain
11:33.05ZxcvbGeorge-: he uses a resistor, not a voltage regulator
11:33.35George-what's wrong with using a resistor
11:33.54ZxcvbGeorge-: 4.7V at full charge
11:34.02George-0V empty..
11:34.03PieteZxcvb: on the back of the AC adapter it says output 5v, 2A
11:34.15ZxcvbGeorge-: then it could drop to 4V or even 3.5V before you know something is wrong
11:35.14Pieteargh, I meant a diode :)
11:35.15Pietesorry
11:35.32George-Piete: a *diode*?
11:35.47George-erm.. what help is a diode?:)
11:36.00Johnmcl7Makes AC into DC
11:36.11PieteGeorge-: just as sec, and I'll give you all the details
11:36.17Johnmcl7the current can only flow through a diode in one direction
11:36.26George-Johnmcl7: I know
11:36.34Johnmcl7<- idiot
11:36.39George-Johnmcl7: but what help is that to regulate voltage?
11:37.01Johnmcl7This from a dc power supply isn't it?
11:37.09Pietehttp://www.pocketpcpassion.com/General/BatteryExtenderBySJ/BatteryExtenderSJ.htm
11:37.14Pietethats basically what I have
11:38.01Pieteand I feel really stupid now, since I assembled the thing a while back, it uses both an resistor, and a diode *blush*
11:39.56Zxcvba diode will also eat 0.7V
11:40.22Pieteyea, but its neccesary in the circut
11:40.54Pieteanyway, I like it, I get to surf the net wirelessly the whole day when I'm out
11:42.03ZxcvbPiete: that's probably why it is used
11:42.16ZxcvbPiete: 1.2 volts * 4
11:42.42Zxcvbhow much power does the Z use when it's off?
11:43.19troffaskyPiete: why do you use the resistor?

11:58.25Zxcvbtroffasky: it's not quite as accurate, but you don't have to keep it running for several hours/days to make it accurate
11:58.33Zxcvbtroffasky: it's accurate to within a second or so
11:58.48Zxcvbtroffasky: ntp is much more accurate, but requires days to stabilize

12:08.13George-hahaha
12:08.42ZzzTigertroff... sure.. but which pin is which.. a stereo connectors got three pins.. used for the headpohines... are the same used for the mic? is it mono headpjones + mono mic after all?
12:08.58troffaskyi think the left one is the mic
12:09.07George-ZzzTiger: both sides can be used as output
12:09.13George-ZzzTiger: the left side doubles as input
12:09.25troffaskyget a 3.5mm stereo to 2-mono Y connector
12:09.51ZzzTigeri guess i'll just modify some old headset...
12:10.39ZzzTigerleft side is mic.. ok... is that he pin in the middle or the pin way down.. ?

13:42.02George-?
13:42.11Com[Plex]sharp has it. I called them yesterday, and they had it, had even worked on it that aternoon. - backordered parts tho :< - UPS delivered it monday without tracking it.
13:42.38Com[Plex]so the reason they coudlnt find it when I called them over and over again was because they didnt have it anymore.
13:42.40George-what's wrong with your Z?
13:43.47Com[Plex]well. initially I thought it just needed to be reflashed. I stuf a cf card in there to put the sharp rom on it for testing, and the damned thing crapped out. - after a ten mnute flash, I tested the cf card in mywriter, and it said it was unformatted.
13:44.01Com[Plex]- Id been using the same cf card since january last year
13:44.35Com[Plex]anwyay, the zaurus went dead. - but when I talked to sharp yesterday,they said they were replacing a board in it..
13:45.18Com[Plex]I wish I lived in naperville illinois,. I would dumpster dive that place every day
13:45.20George-ok
13:45.31Com[Plex]lol
13:46.04Com[Plex]I should have kept my battery and screen protector tho. - I got bad luck with things like that. - my extras tend toget "lost"
13:46.26Com[Plex]just like my packages from ups
13:46.33George-lol
13:46.40Com[Plex]man, I dont wanna go to work today
13:46.58Com[Plex]*sigh*. I can be such a sissy.- I ot the easiest job in the world.

13:47.33Com[Plex]I teach alternative ed computer literacy. high school level.
13:47.51Com[Plex]dropout recovery program, with the vocational center and stuff.
13:47.52George-arggh!!! teacher!!!
13:48.03Com[Plex]I get all the bad kids.
13:48.13Com[Plex]they love me tho, because I was a bad kid too :>
13:48.58Com[Plex]these kisd teach themselves, - I just keep em occupied. all they need is someone to stick up for them, and to teach em a little self respect. - Im good at that.
13:49.08George-lol
13:49.14George-you're..a..teacher...
13:49.18George-EVIL
13:49.19George-;)
13:51.52Com[Plex]why do you say that?
13:52.10Com[Plex]your problem is that the teachers you have had in the past  didnt like there jobs.
13:52.27Com[Plex]I DO like my job, and I feel like IM doing somehting good forthe world.

17:34.31JasonNJblah.
17:34.50JasonNJthis dynamism thing is one big headache
17:35.00kergothhow so?
17:35.38JasonNJbecause I cant support the SL-C700 in the us
17:35.57JasonNJthe problem is that end users perceive sharp as one big entity, not two separate companies
17:35.59kergoththey'll have to do their own support .. course it reflects on Sharp
17:36.03JasonNJsharp japan and sharp US
17:36.04kergothyeah, exactly
17:37.10numatrixJasonNJ: they're pretty explicit that the language change and support is all in their shop, isn't it?
17:37.51JasonNJyeah, but it reflects badly on us if anything goes wrong.
17:38.57chouimatJasonNJ: peoples are assholes. and that will be worst in the future ... come on they don't know how to read
17:47.43markJasonNJ: u'll just have to release it in the US officially then ;)
17:48.10JasonNJmark: easier said than done.
17:48.23JasonNJthe C700 has a battery life of about 20 minutes.
17:48.38markheh, yeah.  that sucks
17:48.50JasonNJthats the main reason why we didnt accept it in the US
17:49.00JasonNJin Japan, they use PDA's hooked up to AC power
17:49.02JasonNJthey are used to that
17:49.14JasonNJas sorta desktop electronic rolodexes.
17:50.06markwhy the awful battery life? is it that screen?
17:53.12JasonNJthe C700 has a 1000ma battery
17:53.28JasonNJthats about the same size as a SL-5500 battery

17:57.04ZzzTigerhmmm
17:57.38tezI'm hoping I can get the new battery and appropriate battery cover for the 5500...
17:57.54ZzzTigersomeone posted a link to pictures of the 5600... on one of them i could read the battery ID number.. EA...blah... couldnt find it at elctronic stores though
17:58.28ZzzTigeri dont think that sharp invented a whole new battery stadard... so we just have to find the electronic device where this battery is already being used................
17:58.47tezYes, that seems reasonable.
17:59.21tezAnyway, Sharp supply replacement 5500 batteries, so I assume they will for the 5600 when it comes out.  I hope.
17:59.34ZzzTigeryes they should
17:59.44marki just purchased another battery for my 5000
17:59.44ZzzTigerbut prolly way too expensive... dont u think?
17:59.55tezHmm.  Don't know...
18:00.58tezI'm going to have to wait and see, I guess.
18:01.33tezHow come?
18:01.40ZzzTigereurope
18:01.47tezI'll be in the UK.
18:02.00ZzzTigerok... maybe same $hit over there...
18:02.10tezYeah, most probably!
18:02.19marktez: heh, we dont know if the new Z is gonna be sold here
18:02.33ZzzTigerwhen its supposed to hit the us in january... its gonna hit our stores in march or so.. if at all
18:02.38tezBut when the 5600 does come out, I think the battery model number will be easy to find.
18:02.53ZzzTigertez: i alread had the battery modell number!!!
18:03.05ZzzTigerjust have to find the pictures again... on the net
18:03.08markZzzTiger: i'm gonna phone sharp and try and find out
18:03.17ZzzTigerjo mark!
18:03.20tezZzzTiger: Oh, I thoght you said you only got a little part of it.
18:03.41ZzzTigerwhats the model number of the current battery?
18:03.49tezmark: I think grey market importers will bring it into the UK.  Just very late, that's all.
18:03.52ZzzTigeri kinda remember numbers...
18:04.36tezEA-BL06
18:04.43ZzzTigerok
18:04.50ZzzTigerthen the new one is EA-BL08
18:05.17tezNice one!
18:05.33tez(time for froogle)
18:06.02tezDamn, no such luck.
18:06.43ZzzTigeronly thing u find are the specs for the 5600 or sl-b500 how it is called in japan...
18:07.19tezYeah, I just tried a search.  Anyway, if what I heard about the new battery beig physically larger, I would need to get a new battery cover too.
18:07.44ZzzTigerwell i dont know about physically larger...
18:08.14ZzzTigerdont think that they would sell a single battery cover, too...
18:08.24ZzzTigeror do they for the 5500 ?
18:08.33tezI have no idea.
18:08.52tezI suppose I'd have to email/phone and find out if they could send one or something.
18:09.06ZzzTigeryes... just try to be stupid :)
18:09.13ZzzTigerto sound stupid
18:09.14ZzzTiger:)
18:09.21tezExactly.
18:09.33tez"I keep it off to keep it running cool"
18:09.36tezor something.
18:09.50ZzzTigerEA-BL08 might be sharps internal ID'S ... i bet the same batters is ubeing used it multiple other devices... just under different names
18:10.25ZzzTiger"oh, so then we better dont send u a new one, because u wont be able to let u'r Z stay cool anymore"
18:10.38tezAh, I really am stupid.
18:10.40ZzzTigerno... u'r dog ate it or sumfin
18:10.51ZzzTigeror your cute little sister
18:11.27ZzzTigeror so.. sumfin humanly interesting for the call center employee....
18:11.37ZzzTigerhumnaly... does this word exist at all?
18:11.39ZzzTiger:)
18:12.28ZzzTigershaps internal ID's all seem to start with 'EA' ... the AC adapter is called EA-72 ... *grrrrrr*
18:13.17tezI starting to lose hope with this idea that other manufacturers make the same battery under a different name.
18:13.37__darius_If I linked /home to my SD card .. would that be bad?  Are there a lot of various write operations that would burn up my memory card?
18:13.44tezGoogle's not revealing any sites that sell alteratives to sharp's battery.
18:14.04ZzzTigertez: because of the diffrent name!
18:14.35ZzzTigertez: dont think that they had the money to develop and get permissions for a wholne new kind of battery
18:14.43tezZzzTiger: Yeah, but I'd imagine some site would at least mention "compatible with the EA-BL06"
18:14.50ZzzTigerhmm
18:14.54ZzzTigerright
18:15.05ZzzTigerthe Z is not that 'famous' though

20:06.08Neo|Worktook it naturally since I couldn't have found a job most likely
20:06.27Neo|Workwell, such simple things as playing games for 24 hours in a row

20:13.39Neo|WorkI hope that by summer we can play in the backyard, got to the beach etc w/o them eating bark, sand or other stuff
20:13.52djkI used ZIC at one for IRC
20:14.02ZzzTigerICQ

20:14.12Neo|Work:)
20:14.13ZzzTiger!= IRC
20:14.24djksorry I am blind
20:14.35ZzzTigergot a braille display?
20:14.41djkthere a couple of jabber clients
20:14.49Neo|WorkEvan likes to eat anything fuzzy/furry. he eats fuzz of his pj's, fur from stuffed toys, cat fur off the floow
20:14.53ZzzTigerjabber... supports icq?
20:15.05Locutus4242djk: btw, what 802.11 card do you use and how's the battery life?
20:15.10Neo|Workand interestingly enough (this was very funny) fur directly from the source - pulling it off the cat
20:15.16Neo|WorkZzzTiger: yes
20:15.24ZzzTigerNeo|Work : lol
20:15.31Neo|Workand we got that on tape too
20:15.32djkAh now that you mention maybe not. I am hoping to see a GAIM client
20:15.38Neo|Workcat got rather irritated at him. :P
20:15.48ZzzTigerNeo|Work which one could u recommend at killefiz?
20:16.08Neo|Workthe gabber SERVER has agent support, one of them being icq (and AIM, MSN, Yahoo, IRC etc)
20:16.10djkI got the Ambicom works well has a low 17ma draw in idle state
20:16.11Locutus4242you guys heard that AOL got a patent on instant messaging?
20:16.38djkIf you are using for a long time get a battery pack
20:16.43Neo|WorkZzzTiger: for Jabber? try the free one first. :P
20:16.56djkwhen did they get the patent
20:17.01Neo|WorkI never personally use my Z for that since I don't have wireless and never use it networked unless I'm near a computer
20:17.20Locutus4242djl: I think it was just awarded. they filed in Jan 1997.
20:17.41Neo|Workwhen did ICQ and all those come?
20:18.22Locutus4242Actually, I know of something that predates ICQ( Nov 1996 ) and could invalidate the AOL patent. ;)
20:18.28Neo|Workmirabilis.com was Dec 1998 at least
20:18.42Neo|WorkI doubt it can be enforced
20:18.49djkI wonder what their patent states IRC could be considered IM
20:18.51Neo|Workunless it's something specific unique to aim or whatever
20:19.03Neo|Worknot to mention things like unix 'talk'
20:19.40Neo|Workn November 1996, only four months after the establishment of Mirabilis, the first version of the ICQ ("I Seek You") product was deployed over the Internet.
20:19.41Locutus4242they went after finding other users( registering with a name and getting an id(IP) ) plus some other stuff.
20:20.03Neo|Workif the AOL patent is from 1998 and is broad enough or whatever, it will never hold up
20:20.09djkgot be the 'AOL' only stuff that is protected. Anything at a concept level was in public domain long before
20:20.21Neo|Workgot any links for the patent?
20:20.59Locutus4242They filed in the US in Jan 1997
20:21.12ZzzTiger[Note:] You will need to install libexpat1_1.95.2-fam1_arm.ipk in the pda first! <-- where can i get that??
20:21.41Locutus4242hang on, I'll get a uspto.gov link to the patent....
20:24.13Locutus4242http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL&p=1&u=/netahtml/srchnum.htm&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=6449344.WKU.&OS=PN/6449344&RS=PN/6449344
20:24.40Locutus4242here's the news.com article:
20:24.43Locutus4242http://news.com.com/2100-1023-978234.html
20:25.35Neo|Workso it's actually ICQ that filed it or something
20:25.40Neo|Workwhich might make more sense
20:25.43Neo|WorkICQ was before AIM
20:25.50Neo|Workand of course is today owned by AOL
20:26.55Locutus4242There is something that predates ICQ by a couple of months so it could be that the patend is void. Prior art in the public domain...
20:26.57djkReads a bit broad and seems late in the game since there were several 'IM' program out years before in the public domain
20:27.27Neo|Worknow of course I wouldn't mind if they sued Microsoft or Yahoo so much
20:27.36Neo|Workbut if they fscked up Jabber I'd be pissed
20:27.43djkas stated before talk, IRC, old fashioned BBS Live Chat
20:27.51Neo|Workright
20:28.10Neo|WorkThe claim is it's a system where you have a network; you have a way to monitor who's on the network; and if you want to talk to them you hook them up," said Gregory Aharonian, publisher of Internet Patent News Service, a newsletter that's critical of technology patents. "If you're doing something like that, you're potentially infringing."
20:28.15Neo|Workthat describes IRC
20:28.18Locutus4242It reads to me like they think they invened using a server and an ID or naming system for finding a users IP address. Plus stuff about user data and notifications on connection.
20:28.35ZzzTigerqtjim needs some library.. i cant find it... where could i look? qpe-base (1.5.0) libexpat1_1.95.2-fam1_arm.ipk <- this one
20:28.50kergothZzzTiger: qpe-base you just -force-depends
20:28.53kergothZzzTiger: the package is flawed
20:28.54Neo|WorkZzzTiger: part of familiar, on handhelds.org somewhere perhaps?
20:29.02kergothZzzTiger: expat you can get from ipkgfind.handhelds.org
20:29.04Neo|Workkergoth: he needs expat

21:47.10benmeyerhttp://www.warmi.net/zaurus/blits.shtml
21:47.16benmeyerhey he did put up his blits
21:47.18numatrixheh.  Nobody ever accused them of good syncing
21:47.37benmeyernice!
21:48.09numatrixbenmeyer: definitely; very cool.  though you could have pulled them from the qtopiagnuboy source earlier, that is nice
21:48.38benmeyernonless I didn't know he had put them up
21:48.55numatrixyeah, I didn't either; that's cool
21:49.06numatrixOut for the day, see y'all later.
21:49.11benmeyerit would be nice to get those into the qvfb or base QWidget class
21:49.28numatrix|awaybenmeyer: you really can't since they're assembly...
21:49.37benmeyerso?
21:49.56kergothbenmeyer: you feel like writing it in x86 asm?
21:50.04benmeyerhave an ifdef
21:50.09numatrix|awayWell, the libraries are supposed to be archetecture independant, it's not very convienant.  You'd have to rewrite it for all the other architectures.
21:50.10benmeyerif arm
21:50.12kergothbenmeyer: it uses ARM specific instructions afaicr. multiple register load/storefor example
21:50.23benmeyeryah
21:50.31benmeyerso on the arm it would be really fast
21:50.38benmeyerwhat would be bad about that?
21:50.38benmeyer:-D
21:52.45kergothhehe
21:52.55ZzzTiger´:( igot hte jabber client to work, but it cant regsiter icq stuff, yet... is there any other icq client? what about micq? there only a bla.gz available.. how should i install it?
21:53.24kergothZzzTiger: the ability to connect to icq depnds on the jabber server, not the client ..
21:53.45ZzzTigerkergoth: u cant input a gateway in this client...
21:53.51ZzzTigerthats the thing
21:54.21kergothZzzTiger: ahh

22:48.44PorkySpineis the problem with Sandisk 128Mb resolved in Openzaurus 3?
22:49.29PorkySpinebecause i dont have a cf card, so i have to install through SD
22:49.43Pendalarmost of the problems with Sandisk chips isn't the OS's fault ;-)
22:50.09PorkySpineok :)
22:50.41Pendalarbad clusters or something or other.. in the forums
22:50.57PendalarI bought lexar since they are cheaper and most people have no problems with them
22:51.24PorkySpineits working in my current kernel
22:51.42PorkySpinebut i had to reinstall the driver
22:52.34Pendalarnot all the cards had the problem, it was certain batches
22:52.48Pendalarafaik, but like I said I didn't read much about it since I wasn't affected
22:53.09PorkySpinebut if i flashed the rom, and lose my internal memory then i couldn't use my SD to install OpenZAurus
22:53.34kergothPorkySpine: eh?
22:53.46kergothPorkySpine: theres no supported method to install oz without CF
22:53.48kergothPorkySpine: read the faq
22:54.14PorkySpinesupose i wanted to install OpenZaurus 3
22:54.19kergoth?
22:54.29kergothyes, and there's no supported way to install it without a cf card
22:54.31kergothlike i just said
22:54.40PorkySpinei don't have a CF card, but i have a SD
22:55.00kergothare you not listening?
22:55.05PorkySpineok!
22:55.08Pendalarheh
22:55.18kergoth17:07 <@kergoth> yes, and there's no supported way to install it without a cf

22:55.35Pendalarit's not a OZ thing, blame sharp ;-)

22:59.59PorkySpinei came here for some help! and this is what i get!
23:00.17Pendalarheh we are helping ;-) know you know that you can't flash via SD
23:00.47kergothPorkySpine: http://openzaurus.org/
23:01.00kergothPorkySpine: if you read the faq before asking, it'll help
23:01.21Pendalarwhy isn't http://www.openzaurus.com/offical/unstable/feed/ opening up?
23:01.36kergothPendalar: um, because its .org not .com? :P
23:01.39Pendalardoh
23:01.46Pendalardamn I got to sleep soon
23:03.21Pendalarhttp://www.openzaurus.org/offical/unstable/feed/ doesn't like me either
23:03.30Pendalarwhat other typo have I made =-/
23:03.50kergothits official

23:04.44PendalarI'm on a windows machines atm, sadly
23:04.50Pendalarpart of my defunction

23:07.07kergothyea yea, well theres multiple unstable feeds :)
23:07.17kergothfeeds/ has been a dir full of symlinks into the other dirs for a while now :)
23:07.21troffaskymod_speling is an apache module that corrects typo
23:07.26kergoththen i just ditched it
23:07.28troffaskys in URLs
23:11.09Pendalarsiily you
23:11.16Pendalarbe good to us that never sleep
23:11.28kergothsilly you
23:11.30kergothyou should sleep
23:11.34Pendalarnever!
23:11.55Pendalarnot til OZ let me use my wifi
23:12.06Pendalarthen I can sleep happily
23:16.35Pendalarkergoth it detects my wifi, even apparently finds the channel.. worked through the WEP issue..
23:16.44kergothPendalar: whats the behavior?
23:16.48Pendalarbut still says net unreachable like I had the gateway or something wrong
23:16.59kergothcan you ping the AP?
23:16.59PendalarI've got a solid light, but can't ping anything, including LAN ips
23:17.02Pendalarno
23:17.10Pendalarnet unreachable, doesn't even try
23:17.21Pendalarplayed with network.opts and wireless.opts /conf
23:17.48kergothifconfig -a?
23:17.51kergothdo you have an ip?
23:18.30Pendalarusb one
23:18.37Pendalarlemme see if there's the other in this dump
23:18.41kergothi'm talking about your wlan0 interface
23:18.45kergothdo ifconfig wlan0 then
23:18.56kergoththen it'll only show you that interface
23:19.02kergothhrm, left my Z at home today
23:19.09kergothguess i'll test this kernel when i get home
23:19.31Pendalarno
23:19.37kergothno ip?
23:19.40kergothare you using dhcp or static?
23:19.46Pendalarsays it's up and all but no ip
23:20.01Pendalarwell I've tried both, I prefer static but I'm doing dhcp to cut down on problems
23:20.29kergoththe question isnt what you've tried, its how is it setup right now
23:20.30kergoth:
23:20.32kergoth:)
23:20.47PendalarI'm sure it's prob something in wireless.opts
23:21.03kergothPendalar: does iwconfig wlan0 output look correct?

23:23.22Pendalarwhen I play with udhcpc, it says it doesn't know what wlan0 is either
23:23.24kergoth'tell it to turn on' how?
23:23.24boulezI've seen that page...it covers tons of linux usb connections and Windows serial, but I don't see Windows usb on there...
23:23.34kergothboulez: theres nothing to windows usb.
23:23.42kergothboulez: you plug it in and install the driver and you're done..
23:23.55Pendalarno you have to enable ICS
23:23.58Pendalar;-)
23:24.10kergothonly if you need your Z to get internet access :)
23:24.19boulezWell, the tricky part, maybe, is that I'm connecting to a box that's already connected to another box via ICS
23:24.28boulezRight, that's what I'm trying to do
23:24.36boulezSync works fine
23:24.41kergothboulez: -this- box is using ICS, or its going through antoher box which has ICS enabled?
23:25.19boulezTHe flowchart is: Zaurus connected to laptop.  Laptop connected to desktop.  Desktop connected to cable modem.

23:27.26Pendalarkergoth why would turning on the key, or messing with udhcpc say 'wlan0 : no such device'
23:27.36Pendalaropie finds it fine
23:27.38boulezI've read some pages that say I need to use a proxy...trying that now and it still doesn't seem to work.
23:27.41kergothPendalar: ifconfig -a shows the device?
23:27.49kergothboulez: you dont. just turn on ICS
23:27.57kergothboulez: unless of course you're on 95/98
23:28.00boulezon the laptop?
23:28.04boulezno, win2k
23:28.12Pendalaryes it does
23:28.17kergothboulez: then enable ICS
23:28.22kergothPendalar: odd
23:28.27PendalarI've never had parts of the OS find it, and others not
23:28.28kergothPendalar: anything useful in 'dmesg'?
23:28.37Pendalarmaybe I need a real aliases file
23:28.37kergothPendalar: its not about finding it
23:28.42kergothPendalar: the device is there, but unusable
23:28.46kergothPendalar: aliases matters not
23:29.10Pendalarh,
23:29.18kergothj.
23:29.21Pendalarhm rather this is interesting
23:29.28Pendalartake me a min to copy
23:30.58Pendalarwlan0: INFO - fid=0x02cf - len=2 type=0xf200 LinkStatus=6 (Association failed)
23:31.09Pendalarthat would prob have something to do with it
23:31.33kergothyep. failed to associate w/ the AP
23:31.42kergothbut iwconfig should still function..
23:32.09Pendalark that may have something to do with the encryption thing or not?
