| 02:34:12 | samrolken | there isn't a way to install linux onto an iPaq 3150 over IrDA, is there? |
| 02:35:27 | samrolken | because i have no hope of getting a serial cable. |
| 02:36:32 | nickr | yow |
| 02:36:34 | nickr | that'd be a trick |
| 02:37:00 | samrolken | i have no way possible at all ever to get a serial cable :- |
| 02:37:03 | samrolken | ( |
| 02:37:07 | samrolken | :-(, i mean |
| 02:41:52 | samrolken | any suggestions on how i can get a serial cable? |
| 02:44:33 | jacques | does bootblaster work on the 31xx ? |
| 02:54:26 | samrolken | i heard that it does. |

| 05:58:57 | dneuer | hi all |
| 10:24:50 | hunger | Anyone ever tried familiar on a Sharp Zaurus? |
| 11:45:11 | Dymo-dcc | anyone know of a good terminal emulator for win2k? |
| 11:47:45 | Ng | Hyperterminal just about does, SecureCRT is quite nice, but it's possibly a little overcomplex for just a terminal emulator |
| 11:48:57 | Dymo-dcc | i am just trying to install the familiar on my ipaq :) |
| 11:49:08 | Dymo-dcc | so i quess i will just stick with hyperterm then |
| 11:56:06 | Ng | yeah, hyperterm will be fine |
| 11:56:20 | Ng | remember to turn off hardware and software flow control and it'll be fine |
| 11:57:20 | sachac | Ng: Some people use teraterm, too... |
| 11:58:03 | Dymo-dcc | seems to be working just slow :) |
| 11:58:38 | Dymo-dcc | 25 minutes to upload the root image |
| 11:58:54 | Dymo-dcc | boredom strikes again |
| 12:11:13 | olive | Dymo-dcc: it took 25 minutes on my ipaq to upload the ppp/ssh root 5.2Mb |
| 12:11:24 | olive | too. |
| 12:11:45 | olive | take the time to read the ppp setup. |
| 12:12:42 | olive | I must say to all members and contributors of the familiar project that i'm quite impressed by all you have done. |
| 12:13:26 | olive | i followed the docs, it installed flawlessly. All drivers OK... you know all this, but thanks to make linux come to this platform. |
| 12:13:33 | olive | that's very good work. |
| 12:16:50 | olive | can you tell me how i can tune the size of the ramfs ? |
| 12:17:34 | olive | it's 32 mb big, and i would try to size it 16 or 24... |
| 12:18:22 | Gabe_ | hey |
| 12:18:56 | Gabe_ | anyone awake? |
| 12:23:45 | Gabe_ | oh well |
| 14:06:53 | Dymo|cs | could anyone have pity on me and help me restore wince |
| 14:15:11 | Dymo|cs | could anyone have pity on me and help me restore wince |
| 14:51:45 | olive | question 'bout time: even after ntpdate, my time is bad. |
| 14:51:54 | olive | i've read the install howto, which says |
| 14:52:27 | olive | that i must find a timezone file, but it seems /etc/timezones doesn't exist. |
| 15:38:33 | olive_ | is away: preparing my courses |
| 17:44:06 | kergoth | question. if i have a jffs2 image, which is only a portion of a mtd device, what should the rest of the mtd be filled with? pad with 0xFFs? |
| 18:27:11 | rovitotv | hello |
| 18:27:26 | rovitotv | Can anybody help me with some IPAQ questions? |
| 18:31:00 | olive_ | rovitotv: ask |
| 18:32:44 | rovitotv | olive_ thanks, I am looking at Ipaq 3835, according to the Compaq website they do not have a keyboard for it only 3700 series. Can I get a keyboard for the 3835? |
| 18:34:36 | rovitotv | olive_ Can I install familiar with the usb craddle? |
| 18:39:26 | cworth | [info] cworth_ stopped wasting time: "Started wasting time elsewhere" |
| 18:44:43 | bipolar | is back (gone 21:29:38) |
| 19:07:51 | moray | rovitotv: you need to use serial to install familiar (a cable, which is cheaper, is fine) - once you have linux on the machine you can do everything with usb |
| 19:09:05 | rovitotv | moray Damn! I can't seem to find a local store that has a cable :-( Have to mail order then, that sucks. |
| 19:11:21 | rovitotv | moray I am assuming that the IPAQ 3835 comes with USB, is that correct? |
| 19:11:28 | moray | rovitotv: unfortunately the low level bootloader can only talk standard serial - it would have to be much bigger to do usb (and no one really wants to try to write usb code without an os anyway) |
| 19:11:44 | moray | I don't know for sure, but I'd be surprised if it didn't come with USB |
| 19:12:11 | moray | (in the past it's been different in different places, but I think everywhere will be given usb by now) |
| 19:12:12 | bipolar | 38xx ipaqs come with USB and serial in the same cradle. |
| 19:12:20 | moray | aha |
| 19:13:44 | rovitotv | GREAT, that means instead of studying for my final exam tomorrow I can have Linux on my new IPAQ 3835! Thanks for the info. |
| 19:55:46 | AIT | hi all |
| 19:56:47 | AIT | i've got a question. well, i am trying to change my gtk theme but i don't know how... |
| 19:57:35 | AIT | have been searching for a way to do that, but all i could find were some theme switching tools or the gcc. could anybody help me? |
| 20:18:59 | mattzz | anybody using icewm here? |
| 20:19:10 | mattzz | I was wondering, if xstroke could be docked in the taskbar of icewm |
| 20:19:25 | AIT | yes, sort of ;) working out some probs |
| 20:20:53 | AIT | well, afaik not yet. but have you tried matchbox, i think it is possible with that wm. but i've just started using familiar a few days ago, not so experienced yet so I might be wrong... |
| 20:21:26 | AIT | you could check out: http://handhelds.org/~mallum/ |
| 20:21:49 | mattzz | AIT: matchbox is nice, but there are some odd things about it... like rotation an X11-Errors |
| 20:23:32 | cworth | mattzz: xstroke requests a dock according to the latest freedesktop.org standards. |
| 20:24:01 | cworth | mattzz: you could either hack on icewm to teach it those standards, or you could hack on matchbox to fix its quirks. |
| 20:24:22 | mattzz | cworth: hm, I am not familiar (harhar, what a word) with X11-programming, but that should be an item for matchbox |
| 20:24:46 | mattzz | cworth: I just see that there are heavy changes in mallum's changelog |
| 20:25:04 | mattzz | did I upset mallum? |
| 20:25:05 | mattzz | ups |
| 20:25:58 | mattzz | cworth: xstroke is a real cool app! |
| 20:28:05 | mattzz | mallum: is there an ipkg for 0.1.8 somewhere? |
| 20:39:57 | bipolar_away | is away: I'm not here... Really.... |
| 20:39:58 | mallum | mattzz: yeah in the familiar unstable feed |
| 20:40:51 | lorant | could anybody tell me how to change the gtk themes? |
| 20:41:01 | cworth | mattzz: thanks. |
| 20:41:03 | mattzz | mallum: thanx |
| 20:41:18 | cworth | mallum: latest xkbd is looking very, very nice. |
| 20:41:30 | mallum | cworth: thanks cworth & hi ! |
| 20:41:32 | cworth | mallum: you saw my bug reports I assume? |
| 20:41:45 | mallum | cworth: on bugzilla ? |
| 20:41:50 | cworth | mallum: yes. |
| 20:41:59 | mallum | cworth: hmm, it didn't mail me ... |
| 20:42:08 | cworth | mallum: odd, lemme check... |
| 20:42:35 | mallum | cworth: maybe my .forward file on handhelds isn't working or has dissapeared |
| 20:42:54 | cworth | mallum: "Bug 198 posted. Email sent to: mallum@handhelds.org, cworth@east.isi.edu" |
| 20:43:06 | cworth | mallum: funny, I didn't see it either. :( |
| 20:43:41 | mallum | cworth: I hope you havn't found a real evil bug ;) |
| 20:43:48 | cworth | mallum: and mine isn't even being forwarded. |
| 20:44:30 | cworth | mallum: no, trivial things. /usr/lib/menu/xkbd is totally broken. And I think xkbd should setup a monolaunch entry in /etc/X11/Xsession.d by default. |
| 20:44:53 | cmarqu | cworth: I also didn't get mail when you submitted that scummvm bug, just the reminder mails after one week passed |
| 20:45:35 | mallum | cmarqu: Im sure I've got some bugzilla mail since the switch ... |
| 20:45:46 | cworth | cmarqu: yep. And I just checked, someone files a new bug on me this morning and I didn't get it. |
| 20:46:05 | mallum | cworth: Im not having much luck with ipkg menu's ..... |
| 20:46:56 | cworth | mallum: See: http://handhelds.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=198 I spelled it all out for you. |
| 20:47:13 | mallum | cworth: yeah Im fixing now .... |
| 20:47:21 | mallum | cworth: many thanks |
| 20:49:34 | cworth | mallum: no problem |
| 20:54:47 | mallum | my cable modem is behaving like a yo-yo |
| 20:55:16 | a7r | intermittent connectivity.. worse than low bandwidth. |
| 20:55:49 | mallum | a7r: yeah, I know alot of tricks now to get it back |
| 20:56:16 | a7r | my wireless link has gone from being totally shitty to being stable and fast.. it's pretty amazing. |
| 20:56:42 | mallum | a7r: I discovered the -R flag in pump at that seems to fix it |
| 20:57:19 | mallum | a7r: theres something wrong with my ISP's dhcp, it gives me 10 minute leases .... |
| 20:57:48 | mallum | a7r: and then it will be fine |
| 20:58:02 | mallum | a7r: there trans proxy was broke for about 6 months |
| 20:58:15 | mallum | a7r: could never download anything over a meg over http |
| 20:59:21 | a7r | mallum: damn. |
| 21:02:45 | mallum | cworth: have you tried navigating matchbox with xstroke ? |
| 22:12:43 | cworth | mallum: no, and sorry I never responded to your email about adding WM navigation strokes to the default alphabet. |
| 22:22:36 | mallum | cworth: thats ok, I fitted them in. You hold the record key down and draw an 'n' and you goto the next window .. draw an l the toolbar collapse etc etc |
