| 11:49.20 | Bor_Ed | so it's used on x-ray weapons or what ? :D |
| 11:50.08 | Curalton | well, probably something security-by-obscurity "military intelligence" wise |
| 11:50.45 | Bor_Ed | which is completely standardized and documented on non-yankee countries prolly too |

| 11:53.03 | Curalton | smells like "lame excuse" to me anyhow |
| 11:53.10 | Bor_Ed | pretty much |
| 11:53.35 | Bor_Ed | broadcom prolly just has deal with apple so that FOSS community can't get the feats working on apple gear |

| 11:55.19 | Bor_Ed | or //GS manuals |
| 11:55.42 | Curalton | GS/OS - im bad at 2 letter acronyms |
| 11:56.09 | Bor_Ed | it was wdc 65c816 based apple (older ones were with mos6502 cpu) |
| 11:57.04 | Curalton | ah, erm no. im a opportinustic ibook g3 ppc citizen after seeing the x86 laptop mess :) |

| 11:57.35 | Bor_Ed | I wouldn't mind having g3 ibook either |
| 11:57.57 | Bor_Ed | though wouldn't mind having 603e powerbook either |
| 11:58.14 | Curalton | but what should i get then? anything 100% supported arround the 1Ghz pbook range? |
| 11:58.48 | Bor_Ed | powerbooks have airport extreme as option... you can opt not having it :) |
| 11:59.15 | pahartik | Curalton: iBook G4 |
| 12:00.35 | Curalton | pahartik: *cough cough*, see my first comment^ |
| 12:01.02 | Curalton | so external pcmcia wlan card. but what about power consumption of them? |
| 12:01.13 | Bor_Ed | ibook doesn't have pcmcia |
| 12:01.14 | Curalton | and g4 ibooks dont even have a pcmcia slot |
| 12:01.23 | Curalton | yeh, was refering to pbooks |
| 12:01.27 | Bor_Ed | usb sticks don't eat much guts and work ok |
| 12:01.53 | Bor_Ed | I had lucent wavelan silver on x86 lappie and battery life dropped from 2:45 to ~2:30 when in use |
| 12:02.00 | Curalton | usbstick. thats an idea |
| 12:02.33 | Bor_Ed | iirc, some here use dw211 or similar sticks |
| 12:03.49 | Curalton | still, dont have the advantage of the antenna built into the display in ibooks |
| 12:05.05 | Bor_Ed | some wiring hacks maybe ? :) |
| 12:05.28 | Bor_Ed | and inside of the apartment/office, the usb sticks will do just fine... |
| 12:05.58 | Curalton | hah, right |
| 12:14.22 | pahartik | Curalton: Bluetooth is still wireless, built-in and supported |
| 12:14.38 | Bor_Ed | and some 100's of kbits/sec |
| 12:21.40 | pahartik | Bor_Ed: fastest network interface one can use on iBook G4 is FireWire |
| 12:23.25 | Bor_Ed | yup, 480Mbit/sec |
| 12:23.32 | Bor_Ed | hrm, 400 that is |
| 12:24.34 | Curalton | 480Mbit/sec is usb gross, 400 is fw net |
| 12:24.48 | Bor_Ed | yup, recalled after hitting enter :) |
| 12:28.54 | pahartik | Bor_Ed: faster PowerBooks have faster FireWire and fastest PowerBook has gigabit Ethernet |
| 12:30.23 | Bor_Ed | 800Mbit firewire ... |
| 12:30.41 | pahartik | Bor_Ed: oh, actually those models with faster FireWire also have gigabit Ethernet |
| 12:30.48 | Bor_Ed | hehe |

| 13:59.43 | M4dkiss | I am using k3b, thus cdrdao |

| 19:24.15 | Madkiss | uhm, this cdrecord-thing is getting me |
| 19:25.10 | ericb_ | I'm currently installing debian for ppc (yellowdog made me sick), and was wondering, for X, what are you recommanding, xorg or XFree86 ? and will XFree86 support ati 128 quite nicely ? |
| 19:25.35 | Madkiss | ericb_: There is no official xorg for Debian. |
| 19:25.43 | Madkiss | And ati128 will work with XFree86 for sure. |
| 19:25.44 | ericb_ | ok |
| 19:25.46 | ericb_ | cool |
| 19:26.44 | ericb_ | because I just removed that yellowdog crap and it didn't supported ati with more than 8bbp and no xv support and was slow as hell and *** buggy and apt missed me too much.. and it didn't even have firefox |
| 19:26.58 | ericb_ | usb support was crappy |
| 19:30.09 | ericb_ | it's funny that they say that yellowdog is faster than OS X ... I found it so slower |
| 19:35.23 | Curalton | ericb_: try ubuntu for an easy debian start |
| 19:43.39 | ericb_ | I've used debian for x86 for many years curalton.. never used it for ppc however |
| 19:48.35 | Curalton | ah, should be the same then essentially |
| 19:55.42 | ericb_ | the power3 kernel should work on a g3 right ? |
| 19:56.12 | pahartik | ericb_: no |
| 19:56.57 | ericb_ | then the powerpc should work on a g3 ? |
| 19:57.31 | pahartik | ericb_: yes |
| 19:57.36 | ericb_ | ok thx |
| 20:02.16 | pahartik | ericb_: you can build important things with optimizations for "-mcpu=750"... including kernel |

| 20:24.01 | mirak | it matters that much for a G3 ? |
| 20:24.12 | mirak | what's the gain ? |
| 20:24.23 | mirak | 5% ? |
| 20:24.25 | mirak | 1 ? |
| 20:24.42 | Bor_Ed | I compile with defaults (6xx) for g3 and haven't noticed lag of performance compared to 603ev at pretty much same speed |
| 20:25.55 | mirak | interesting |
| 20:30.49 | pahartik | Bor_Ed: difference between generic and optimized stuff is about 5 to 20 % on my systems with PowerPC 603e and 604e |
| 20:31.11 | Bor_Ed | I haven't noticed much on 601, 603ev and 750 |
| 20:32.02 | Bor_Ed | maybe I should pick mplayer source and check if it'd stop lagging on 90 min divx clips, now I have to pause it in every ~30 mins to get synced |
| 20:32.46 | Piru | hmmm haven't seen anything like that |
| 20:33.07 | pahartik | Bor_Ed: i like it when "rsync" or "gzip" something takes 20 minutes instead of 25 minutes |
| 20:33.51 | Bor_Ed | hmm... weird that I haven't noticed such on optimized setups... I'm either blind or then my systems just suck |
| 20:40.17 | simonrvn | lack of mem would slow anything down |
| 20:40.49 | Bor_Ed | 750 has 160 megs and 603 has 80 |

| 20:50.41 | Curalton | put a line in /etc/fstab |

| 20:52.10 | Curalton | /dev/hda7 /osx noauto,ro,defaults 0 2 |
| 20:52.16 | Curalton | errm |
| 20:52.24 | Curalton | /dev/hda7 /osx hfsplus noauto,ro,defaults 0 2 |
| 21:03.50 | Crock | are the noauto, ro, defaults 0 2 significant in any way? |
| 21:06.03 | Curalton | no |
| 21:06.13 | Curalton | ro is probably better so you dont try to write big files on them |
| 21:06.22 | Curalton | err, something has to go there though, cant leave it blank |
| 21:06.35 | Crock | so noauto doesn't mean auto mount? |
| 21:06.40 | Curalton | you can write stuff but at some point you might break it, my guess is ~1GB |
| 21:06.43 | Curalton | yes |
| 21:06.45 | Crock | and ro, is read only |
| 21:06.58 | Crock | why not auto mount ? |
| 21:07.12 | Crock | so now do I type mount /dev/hda7 |
| 21:07.20 | Crock | or will it be there? |
| 21:07.32 | Crock | at the mount point??? |
| 21:09.16 | Curalton | yes |
| 21:09.28 | Curalton | you can put "auto" there and it is there automatically |
