10:56.35|stefan|hey =) just a quick question. i can't really get networking working on my ipaq and i was wondering if i somehow can update the packages for opie etc through my pc ? i'm booting familia/opie from a sd-card
11:00.15*** join/#handhelds md401 (i=md401@87.113.6.11.plusnet.pte-ag1.dyn.plus.net)
11:03.18bluelightning|stefan|: well, you'll need a network connection of some kind - USB, PPP over serial, wifi, hardwired network
11:20.19|stefan|can't i just plug in the sd-card in my linux computer and upgrade the packages somehow there ?
11:21.30|stefan|the usb networking with my linux comp isn't working that good. i get some watchdog network timeout
11:23.45bluelightning|stefan|: not really... you can download individual packages and copy them to the card and then install them when it's back in the PDA
11:24.00bluelightningwithout a network connection that's basically it
11:24.53|stefan|damn. i gotta get some bluetooth accesspoint up or get this usb thing working.
11:24.58|stefan|dunno what's wrong though.

13:09.49mmpbd2: looks like orinoco card starts to work:)
13:10.01mmpalthough it's just an ugly hack for now
13:10.25*** join/#handhelds agd5f (n=deuchera@65.242.105.130)

13:13.46mmpI'm not sure, I've done more changes at once, will track it in a minute
13:13.55mmpbut definitely incorrect MCXX settings
13:14.33mmpbut not the values which are "#define"-d at the start of pxa2xx_base.c
13:14.55mmpI had to change functions which calculate values for MCXX
13:15.06mmpso it will take a while to see what's wrong there
13:15.34mmphmm, looks like that the wifi even works, after I realized that I have MAC filter turned on and added it to the whitelist:)
13:16.49mmpnow just to find out why it doesn't work
13:16.52mmpwith original settings
13:33.48andy_graybealgar... my handheld is stuck in it's lapbelt case i put it into this morning
13:33.58andy_graybealmaybe i'm not supposed to have one of these things
13:34.11andy_graybealhow evil
13:34.22andy_graybeali can't slide it out
13:34.30andy_graybealmore ummmf ?  or is there some trick?
13:35.19andy_graybealgot it to come out, but it felt like i was breaknig it

15:29.07andy_graybealhow do i tell what IP address my ipaq 5550 has with wince?
15:29.17andy_graybealis there a cmd, or ipconfig ?
15:30.17mmpandy_graybeal: sorry I left yesterday, brother wanted to go sleep...
15:30.32andy_graybealeverything is working!  it's good.. now i'm trying to install the luunixes!  familliar
15:30.46mmpyou should see it in the grayed field where you normally set the static IP address
15:30.59mmpandy_graybeal: did you flash the non-WPA firmware?
15:30.59andy_graybealwith the wireless connector?
15:31.06andy_graybealyes, i did flash teh non-wpa firmware
15:31.13andy_graybeali can get on networks just fine and everything
15:31.18mmpandy_graybeal: sort-of network preferences, I don't remember exactly:)
15:31.31mmpbut if it works, it's just great:)
15:32.09andy_graybealyea, i'm trying to do the ftp thing to transfer bootblaster and get the image of wince and stuff
15:32.25mmpjust use hotsync:)
15:32.30mmperr, ActiveSync
15:32.45andy_graybeali can transfer bootblaster with activesync?
15:33.19mmpyes, it should be possible -- iirc you can upload files using activesync...
15:33.31andy_graybealok
15:36.36mmpandy_graybeal: but if pda buzzed yesterday, it might be possible you have bootldr already installed (I'm not sure though)
15:36.41*** join/#handhelds dariball (n=dariball@p54B1F028.dip.t-dialin.net)
15:37.19andy_graybealif ti's not installed, and i try to boot the bootloader thing, will i hose the machine?
15:37.34mmpno:)
15:37.50andy_graybealok, lemme try
15:38.01mmpandy_graybeal: if bootldr is already installed, it should be possible to just hold joypad and reboot
15:38.17mmpand you should get bootldr prompt on serial console
15:38.20andy_graybealhmm... it's the two far left buttons and then the reset switch right?
15:38.23mmp(booting wince otherwise)
15:38.24andy_graybealyea, nothing happened
15:38.28mmpsoft reboot should be enough
15:38.30andy_graybealyea, just booted wince
15:38.32andy_graybealaah okay
15:38.47mmpbut don't forget to press the joypad
15:38.53andy_graybealah joypad that's right
15:39.02andy_graybealah it did buzzy buzzy!
15:39.03andy_graybealthanks!
15:39.06mmpnp:)

16:47.30andy_graybealmmp, well, transferring bootgpe image over
16:47.34andy_graybealfrom familiar
16:47.43andy_graybealdo most people use gpe or opie?
16:47.44mmpsounds positively:)
16:47.53mmphard to say :)
16:48.05andy_graybealthat must be like kde vs gnome or something
16:48.11andy_graybeali didn't know which to pick
16:48.12mmpsort of:)
16:48.26andy_graybealhah console, that would be cool if i could be brave enough :)
16:48.52mmpandy_graybeal: it's for development, not for real use:)
16:49.14andy_graybeal<-- lowly end user
16:50.48andy_graybealhave to attend a meeting at in about 30 minutes, luckily it's in the room i'm in now
16:51.15mmp:)
16:51.45mmpand maybe after the meeting ipaq will be already linux-positive:)
16:51.52andy_graybeal:)
17:16.31andy_graybealwell, it's booting :)  
17:16.36andy_graybealthis is good; gpe 2.7
17:17.33andy_graybealwhere do you think i can get a replacement powersupply to plug into the USB cradle?  i don't have one, and it appears that HP doesn't supply parts for the h5550, just software support.
17:19.45andy_graybealawesome, the wireless works!!
17:19.47andy_graybealhell yes.
17:20.34andy_graybealgpe is beautiful
17:22.50*** part/#handhelds r34 (n=BobB@unaffiliated/r34)
17:25.22andy_graybealis it possible to boot off of SD memory?

17:32.55slapin_nbHi, all! Does kernel-discuss ML work?
17:38.55mmpandy_graybeal: sorry delay -- no, it isn't
17:39.00mmpat least, not fully
17:39.24mmpslapin_nb: probably not, I have not received e-mail from k-d for a quite long time...
17:39.39mmpandy_graybeal: it should be possible to boot from CF cards in CF sleve, though... .
17:40.52slapin_nbmmp, to which ml kernel patches to be sent?
17:41.10mmpwith SD card, you still need to have linux kernel on the flash, no idea whether bootldr can read it from wince flash partitions
17:41.50mmpslapin_nb: well, actually I send the patches to k-d and Cc them to Paul Sokolovsky and my Anton Vorontsov (my GSoC mentor)
17:42.10andy_graybealaah cf card.. nice thank yuo mmp
17:42.37mmpandy_graybeal: np, I'm not 100% with CF card, as I have not ever seen CF sleeve, but it should be possible.
17:42.42andy_graybealdoes anyone use a wireless keyboard with their handheld?  i'm thinking bluetooth is better than IR
17:42.48andy_graybealthanks mmp
17:43.50mmpandy_graybeal: h5550 has bluetooth problems here and there, but bt should be viable I guess... . And, in case of need, I think there are some original bluetooth foldable keyboards on ebay:)
17:44.05andy_graybealhmm.. okay
17:44.10andy_graybealthat sounds not very promissing
17:48.38*** join/#handhelds nelson (n=nelson@rrcs-72-43-17-50.nys.biz.rr.com)
17:53.59mmpandy_graybeal: also, Erik Hovland claims he managed to get frogpad working with his h5550 :)
17:55.05andy_graybealaah those frogpads look weird
17:55.11mmpbd2_: hmm, any idea where/whom could I ask about the calculations of values for MCxx registers? I have no idea what's being calculated there...
17:55.19andy_graybeali want a regular keybaord, i guess i'm an old fart
17:55.25mmpandy_graybeal: but still, you have one hand free to hold ipaq, other one to type:)
17:55.47andy_graybealgood for inventory; i'll keep it in mind, we might be using this for inventory
17:56.39mmpandy_graybeal: I also prefer full-sized keyboard, but this is something you can use even in bus or train:)
17:57.11andy_graybealvery interesting.
17:57.17mmpalthough not very comfortable, still far better than typing on virtual keyboard
17:57.17andy_graybealaight i'm off to the meeting, they changed the room!
17:57.24mmpnot sure about text recognition
17:57.26mmp:) bye
17:57.29mmpand good luck
