| 02:13.59 | piem | mmh ? |
| 02:16.25 | piem | anyone has troubles with mouseemu these days? |
| 02:16.39 | piem | it seems to hijack my keys much more than it should |
| 02:18.00 | piem | i.e. pbbuttonsd does not work anymore when moussemu does |
| 02:18.16 | piem | and i can't change from one tty's to another without switching mouseemu off |
| 02:19.11 | keenan | how does mouseemu work anyway? |
| 02:19.14 | keenan | i've never used it |
| 02:19.40 | keenan | what actions correspond to right click, wheel, etc.? |
| 02:19.54 | piem | you choose. it's an improved version of something like: |
| 02:19.55 | piem | echo 1 > /proc/sys/dev/mac_hid/mouse_button_emulation |
| 02:19.55 | piem | echo 68 > /proc/sys/dev/mac_hid/mouse_button2_keycode |
| 02:19.55 | piem | echo 87 > /proc/sys/dev/mac_hid/mouse_button3_keycode |

| 02:20.36 | piem | it also has a (nice) feature to block the trackpad when you start typing |
| 02:21.09 | keenan | any idea why my powerbook 3400 can't wake up after being put to sleep by pmud? |
| 02:21.43 | piem | no wake up at all ? or just the screen ? |
| 02:22.16 | keenan | well i press the keys and nothing happens, hard drive doesn't spin up |
| 02:22.26 | keenan | and when i press the power button it just reboots |

| 02:23.32 | piem | mmh, i always used pbbuttonsd to do that. still it does happen that the machine doesn't wake though, |
| 02:23.47 | piem | especially when i went a bit too fast on my bicycle :] |
| 02:24.57 | keenan | i'll try pbbuttonsd and see if that works |
| 02:25.52 | piem | keenan: yep. kernel wise, i had success with 2.6.9+patch7, and now 2.6.12-rc3 which works great too |
| 02:26.45 | piem | 2.6.10 and 2.6.11 were really unstable for me, weird even. |
| 02:27.04 | keenan | hmm, what if the internal battery were dead? |
| 02:28.14 | piem | keenan: like a CMOS thing ? is there one? |
| 02:29.05 | piem | if i unplug my ibook and remove the battery for a few seconds, i loose the time, which let me think there isn't |
| 02:32.38 | keenan | same thing happens with pbbuttonsd |

| 20:53.28 | simonrvn | pahartik: i got GSSAPI auth working finally :). hooked up to LDAP as a backend. really nice |
| 20:55.19 | pahartik | simonrvn: so you have authentication server for user accounts on various workstations and servers? |
| 20:55.57 | simonrvn | yes |
| 20:57.14 | simonrvn | i still have to set up the other machines, but this one is kerberised |
| 20:58.11 | simonrvn | next on the list, is setting up AFS, and figuring out how to do SSO for everything |
| 21:01.35 | deadcat | simonrvn: please help... bootsplash on 2.6.11.7 PLEASE!!! |
| 21:01.37 | pahartik | simonrvn: is it difficult? |
| 21:02.30 | simonrvn | hmm, in hindsight, it wasn't more difficult than groking LDAP itself |
| 21:04.40 | simonrvn | deadcat: if the patch doesn't apply clean, you're either SOL, or have to hand patch it |
| 21:05.08 | deadcat | simonrvn: the patch is fine. make menuconfig wont let me get into the bootsplash submenu. |
| 21:05.39 | deadcat | can you test it for me? bootsplash.de patch and kernel.org 2.6.11.7 |
| 21:06.50 | simonrvn | then there could be something wrong with the patch made to the Kconfig, if it made one |
| 21:07.34 | deadcat | simonrvn: works on x86 though |
| 21:08.29 | simonrvn | then check the Kconfig part of the patch, and emulate it as far as possible, and make sure it makes sense for PPC. |
| 21:09.31 | deadcat | simonrvn: ok |
| 21:13.10 | pahartik | simonrvn: have you noticed that Q-Funk is not around? |
| 21:13.19 | simonrvn | yes |
| 21:13.32 | simonrvn | where is he? |
| 21:13.34 | deadcat | where is FB_VESA? |
| 21:14.44 | simonrvn | framebuffer/video section |
| 21:14.57 | pahartik | simonrvn: ISP got bored of complaining and disconnected his uplink... |
| 21:15.06 | simonrvn | oh crap |
| 21:15.18 | simonrvn | !!!! |
| 21:16.35 | deadcat | simonrvn: cant find it. |
| 21:16.52 | simonrvn | then it doesn't exist on ppc, does it? |
| 21:16.54 | pahartik | simonrvn: yes... i do not know if he can get uplink from some other ISP |
| 21:17.10 | simonrvn | hope so |
| 21:17.11 | deadcat | simonrvn: but if other distros can do it why cant i? |
| 21:17.29 | simonrvn | it's called patches |
| 21:18.51 | deadcat | simonrvn: wonder what would happen if i ucomment the depend FB_VESA in Kconfig (= |
| 21:19.29 | deadcat | make meuconfig works. but i think it will fail make-kpkg though. but lets try hehe |
| 21:19.31 | simonrvn | you get to keep the pieces if it breaks |

| 21:37.35 | deadcat | heh |
| 21:38.16 | joshua_ | at the Yaboot boot: prompt when I manually enter /install/powerpc/vmlinux, it tells me that it's Not a valid ELF image |

| 21:40.00 | simonrvn | oh. /me has NFC |
| 21:40.39 | joshua_ | tried at first to netboot it, but the OpenFirmware apparently did not want to even touch my network... sat there not transmitting a single packet when I did a boot net. I decided to try installing using the D-I cd; when I entered 'boot cd', it said "menu" not found. I tried boot cd:install\yaboot, and it said "Config file error: Token is too long near line 0 in file /etc/yaboot.conf after claiming to have read 32768 bytes. |
| 21:41.21 | simonrvn | oi vey |
| 21:41.47 | simonrvn | question, did you have a dhcpd and tftpd to accept the connection? |
| 21:42.06 | joshua_ | I did and still do. |
| 21:42.48 | simonrvn | ok. had to ask, 'cause sometimes people try things without having the prereqs =) |
| 21:43.10 | joshua_ | I believe that the culprit is that it was trying to boot from the fiber optic interface, as opposed to the two rj45s. |

| 22:56.25 | dj-death | I dont think so |
| 22:56.36 | dj-death | there is a reverse driver |
| 22:56.49 | dj-death | but it's still < alpha |
| 22:57.06 | dj-death | http://r300.sourceforge.net/ |
| 22:58.03 | julian37 | dj-death: thanks! didn't know that |
| 23:03.50 | julian37 | actually I just managed to get the display working with 2.6.8's ati driver! but it's probably not accelerated |
| 23:05.40 | *** join/#debianppc cc (~cc@byte.fedora) |
| 23:08.37 | dj-death | there is not way to get accelerated display with 9600/9700 under linuxppc expect with r300 driver |
| 23:08.49 | dj-death | which is _really_ unstable |
| 23:09.01 | julian37 | when video=otonly is set, the framebuffer works fine but X11 doesn't. when it's not set, the framebuffer flickers but X11 works. anyone knows what's up with that? can I make both work right? |
