| 02:29:59 | ^switch | does anyone have storm or scream working in 0.5.2? |
| 03:09:56 | Rich3800 | What do the linux Familiar kernel mean, as in for example, "linux-2.4.7-rmk3-np1-hh4"? |
| 03:10:35 | Rich3800 | What does "rmk3" stand for? |
| 03:11:08 | Rich3800 | What does "np1" stand for? |
| 03:11:30 | Rich3800 | What does "np1" stand for? |
| 03:11:50 | Rich3800 | What does "hh4" stand for? |
| 03:55:26 | GrmGrnngGhst | Can anyone help me figure out how to enable my targus keyboard. I have read the wikki, but I have some questions. First it asks me to change the boot params-I don't know which file to edit. Any help would be great! |
| 04:43:02 | kb244 | I'm having trouble actually partitioning my CF card in the Ipaq, and cannot find any programs to do it via the USB reader. Also when I Try to use cardmgr i get this "cardmgr[11]: cannot access /lib/modules/2.4.17-rmk5: No such file or directory" i'm trying to follow instructions from http://www.handhelds.org/z/wiki/BootingLinuxFromCF |
| 04:46:47 | kb244 | hrm, many users, none awake, how typical of a sleeper channel |
| 10:01:31 | theos | mornin all |
| 10:02:05 | theos | short one and easy for ya cracks |
| 10:02:47 | theos | istalled the familiar 0.5.2 and am now at the point after the xmodem transfer with a fully running system. I just want a mail application on it, nothing more |
| 10:02:51 | Kero | 'noon (7 minutes into it :) |
| 10:02:59 | theos | something that can send attachments |
| 10:03:24 | theos | any suggestions? |
| 10:03:25 | Kero | wouldn't know (doesn't e-mail over iPAQ) |
| 10:03:39 | theos | hmmm |
| 10:03:49 | Kero | ask at #handhelds.org, there a few ppl alive there, even though it's weekend :) |
| 10:03:56 | | i think mail is on it's way :-) |
| 10:03:56 | Kero | ibot, mail |
| 10:03:59 | theos | *G* |
| 10:04:01 | | Kero: excuse me? |
| 10:04:01 | Kero | ibot, mail program |
| 10:04:12 | Kero | or look at the wiki |
| 10:04:14 | | wiki is probably http://www.handhelds.org/z/wiki/HandheldsWiki |
| 10:04:14 | Kero | ibot, wiki |
| 10:04:20 | | theos: huh? |
| 10:04:20 | theos | ibot, mailer |
| 10:04:48 | theos | Kero: been to all the sites and stuff, is very limited ito mailers :) |
| 10:05:06 | Kero | grab mutt from debian? |
| 10:05:35 | Kero | I fear the pim-suites are not mature enough? |
| 10:06:19 | theos | I just thought about that also |
| 10:06:28 | theos | mutt is the only thingie i've seen |
| 10:06:33 | theos | that might come in handy |
| 10:06:56 | theos | there is qpe-mailit, storm, opie-mail and so on. They all have one flaw or the other |
| 10:07:05 | theos | as well as emailsync which is totally crap |
| 10:07:14 | theos | together with pymap |
| 10:07:22 | Kero | mut is certainly powerful enough, but I wouldn't know how bloated it might've become. |
| 10:07:59 | theos | well. biabam is what i need, not more...but well see |
| 10:32:42 | theos | is away: smashing his ipaq |
| 12:24:53 | panton | hi... does anybody know an ftpd (w/ ipkg feed) for my ipaq? |
| 12:26:52 | Kero | sftp-server not suitable? |
| 12:27:21 | panton | well im quite n00b to linux, what is sftp? |
| 12:27:32 | Kero | secure ftp, provided by sshd package. |
| 12:27:44 | panton | is it in the default familiar dist? |
| 12:27:46 | Kero | I never used it myself, though... |
| 12:28:05 | panton | i need to transfer files back and forth from my ipaq |
| 12:28:06 | Kero | prolly, /usr/lib/sftp-server |
| 12:28:25 | Kero | panton: for file transfer, scp will do the trick, too. |
| 12:28:50 | panton | scp? |
| 12:28:53 | Kero | run sshd on the iPAQ, run scp from your PC |
| 12:29:11 | panton | ok |
| 12:29:32 | panton | well then use somehing like rz and sz? |
| 12:30:02 | Kero | more cumbersome, but also possible. |
| 12:31:40 | panton | thanks |
| 12:32:23 | panton | i finally got the ipkg thing to work... it was a little tricky |
| 12:32:28 | panton | w00000000 2-0 |
| 13:48:41 | Rich3800 | Is it possible to triple-boot on an iPAQ, WinCE, Familiar/OPIE and NetBSD I have an H3850 and a 5GB PCMCIA drive. |
| 13:56:39 | Rich3800 | I noticed fields in the boot loader parameters that might allow for triple boot. |
| 14:39:24 | Rich3800 | The PocketPC "calendar", "contacts", "inbox" and "iTask" can be setup to do different things at bootup. |
| 14:39:50 | Rich3800 | Like boot different OSes. |
| 14:40:15 | Rich3800 | In different partitions. |
| 14:46:31 | Rich3800 | An operation can be associated with each hardware button, even with the joypad. |
| 16:49:54 | theos | evenin all |
| 16:50:04 | theos | a tiny little question |
| 16:50:28 | theos | I simply want to mail a recorded memo to somewhere |
| 16:50:36 | theos | how is that best done on the ipaq? |
| 16:53:33 | theos | hello? |
| 16:53:36 | theos | anyone alive in here |
| 17:40:40 | alvises | hi |
| 17:45:19 | lale | alvises: #handhelds.org č un po'pių popolato. |
| 17:45:36 | lale | alvises: entra anche in #opie e #gpe |
| 17:45:45 | lale | bye |
| 18:56:46 | Rich3800 | I have an H3800 series iPAQ and the Familiar home page recommends getting the 2.4.18 kernel but the highest-numbered kernel I see at ftp.handhelds.org/pub/linux/kernel/ is 2.4.16 and it then shows a list of kernel patches which do go up to 2.4.18 and beyond. Are there any other Familiar linux kernel locations on the web or do I really have to patch my own kernel to bring it to 2.4.18? |
| 18:57:40 | Kero | familiar 0.5.2 omes with 2.4.18 |
| 18:57:54 | Kero | See also handhelds.org/feeds/2.4.18* |
| 18:58:08 | Kero | and feeds/unstable/*modules* |
| 18:58:24 | Rich3800 | Thanks, Kero. |
| 20:37:11 | TrekCycling | anyone know anything about hotplug? |
| 23:06:12 | TrekCycling | anyone here run GCC on their handheld? |
