01:16.48BinaryMutantI dunno, I've reinstalled familiar a million times, switching gpe and opie a bunch
01:17.12huhligBinaryMutant, which do you prefer gpe or opie
01:17.20huhligGPE is nice as I can just X in
01:17.35BinaryMutantgpe, because of X
01:17.44huhligbut its kind of anoying as the applications lack alot of the functionality of their M$ counterparts
01:17.45BinaryMutantand snes9x

01:18.06BinaryMutantyeah like sd card support

01:22.56mzb_d800Noxx: what are you trying to do?
01:23.03akioi was wondering if i could copy its contents over to a usb drive
01:23.18BinaryMutantfdisk /wherever/the/card/is
01:23.18akioit runs a linx 2.4 kernel
01:23.28akioi dont have root
01:23.29mzb_d800huhlig: don't recall, there is PIM for that
01:23.36NoxxI'm trying to boot my h3850 correctly !
01:23.39Noxxlol
01:23.44huhligmzb_d800, the pim seemed very, lackluster
01:23.45NoxxI messed things up I think
01:24.17mzb_d800Noxx: you are trying to boot from the card? Please give a proper description
01:24.26Noxxyes thats it
01:24.29akiois there a way i could get that thing to run in a virtual machine?
01:24.43Noxxbecause COM1 booting leads to Kernel errors
01:24.47Noxxto me
01:24.53Noxxand I'm hopeless lol
01:25.03mzb_d800Noxx: you mean you are trying to install bootldr?
01:25.09Noxxno
01:25.15Noxxbootldr is already installed
01:25.22NoxxI'm trying to install family
01:25.27Noxxlike Opie or GPE
01:25.28mzb_d800right, start again, and assume that I've not been reading
01:25.31akiohuhlig: you know what im talking about?
01:25.37Noxxok

01:27.41akiothey are planning to do a foleo 2 with palm os
01:27.44mzb_d800Noxx: so you've never installed the root filesystem properly?
01:28.00akioi have access to one
01:28.07Noxxwell, I don't really know what I did... I followed the tutorial on handhelds.org
01:28.08akioits badass
01:28.18akiobelieve it or not
01:28.23huhligI believe you
01:28.25akiobut not for its price tag
01:28.26mzb_d800Noxx: have you ever had it booting?
01:28.36BinaryMutantwhy emulate linux on palm?
01:28.39Noxxto windows or linux ?
01:28.44akioeither
01:28.45huhligBinaryMutant, not emulation
01:29.11akioi want the bastardized linux and the closed binaries off of the device
01:29.16mzb_d800Noxx: what is this # about? and why do you think I asked the question? *sigh* linux of course!
01:29.18NoxxIn linux, the far that I get is a Kernel panic: init...
01:29.27Noxxyes lol
01:29.51BinaryMutantlol
01:29.53mzb_d800Noxx: and at what stage did it stop working?
01:30.02Noxxwhen I type boot
01:30.06Noxxit loads a bit
01:30.11Noxxthen I got an error message
01:30.13mzb_d800STOP TYPING
01:30.24Noxxok... :(
01:30.42mzb_d800read my questions: 1. Have you ever had linux booting. 2. At what stage did it stop booting?
01:30.55BinaryMutanthuhlig, what is it? Palm that can run linux binaries? It sounded like emu to me
01:31.06akiohuhlig: doing research or have an ideas?
01:31.10NoxxNo, Linux did not succesfully boot, and it stop booting at the near beggining...
01:31.19NoxxI don't think I've set up this well
01:31.24Noxx*things
01:31.49mzb_d800right, so you've never successfully installed linux (in the first place). Please paste link of the instructions you are following

01:32.59mzb_d800why can't you do 0.8.4?
01:33.08akioBinaryMutant: it runs from a 2.4 kernel, where did you hear it was being emulated?
01:33.39NoxxI have no idea.

01:39.19mzb_d800Noxx: read the instructions for 0.8.4 ... go through the steps, then tell me WHICH STEP you get stuck on
01:39.22mzb_d800right?

02:05.34Noxxok thanks
02:05.40mzb_d800(which in turn would leave me with more time to work on RamdiskRescue;)
02:05.49Noxxok
02:05.55Noxxlast question
02:06.18mzb_d800is that the last question before or after you install 0.8.4? ;)
02:06.27mzb_d800(jk)
02:06.33Noxxwhen I try to upload bootldr, my ymodem transfer window froze and I nothing trasfers
02:06.35Noxxlol
02:06.50mzb_d800try xmodem
02:07.05Noxxit says, using ymondem
02:07.14mzb_d800yes, I know
02:07.30NoxxI get the error no response from the remote syste,
02:07.44mzb_d800ensure you have all the right settings in hyperterm
02:08.03Noxxstill same bug
02:08.06Noxxlet me double check
02:08.41mzb_d800"If you have an H36xx, H37xx, H38xx, send the bootldr-sa-2.20.4.bin.gz file using xmodem,"
02:08.43zyxnullHow do i get sftp on familiar? (This gotta be placed on faq)
02:09.13mzb_d800zyxnull: are you trying to copy to or from?
02:09.45Noxxit worked with Ymodem
02:09.45zyxnullmzb_d800: I'm trying to copy to the PDA
02:09.45mzb_d800scp should work, but sftp (iirc) is not enabled in dropbear .... err ... could be wrong there
02:10.03mzb_d800scp myfile root@ipaq:/somedir/
02:10.09Noxxwell it worked with Ymodem
02:10.17Noxxso I supposed its ook
02:10.25mzb_d800Noxx: what did you change?
02:11.07mzb_d800zyxnull: I'm guessing you attempted to browse the ipaq with nautilus (or similar) ?
02:11.44NoxxI tried again and It worked
02:11.50NoxxI changed nothing
02:12.06mzb_d800Noxx: the quote I pasted above comes from: http://familiar.handhelds.org/releases/v0.8.4/install/upgrade-bootldr.html
02:12.13mzb_d800are we on the same page? :)
02:12.44Noxxyes
02:12.51zyxnullmzb_d800 in fact, I'm trying to figure out how to sync to the Ipaq, but if it is posible to use an gftp like interface, It'll be great
02:13.15Noxxbut now I'm sending the jffs file
02:13.22mzb_d800zyxnull: sync is different kettle of fish
02:13.54mzb_d800plain copy is easiest done with scp
02:13.56zyxnullmzb_d800: I know, however i saw that multisync can sync using sftp
02:14.23NoxxI'll give you news in 25 mins when the upload will be over
02:14.27Noxxok ?
02:14.41mzb_d800iirc: sftp functionality needs extra pkg (memory failing me) ... # ipkg list | grep sftp
02:15.09mzb_d800zyxnull: but I don't think it's worth the effort
02:15.46zyxnullmzb_d800: Ok, let's leave the sftp issue apart, how do i sync?
02:16.49mzb_d800http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/GpeSync ???
02:17.00mzb_d800can't really tell you ... never tried it
02:17.27mzb_d800iirc syncing is one of those problematic tasks
02:17.31zyxnullmzb_d800: I have tried that one, and makes a lot of sense, however i'm using opie
02:17.47mzb_d800ask on #opie for better advice
02:18.13zyxnullmzb_d800: Thank you very much, I'll check it out, brb

02:18.17mzb_d800np
02:18.45mzb_d800;)
02:21.34mzb_d800I can't say the feeling gets better with time :|
02:22.30zyxnullmzb_d800: :D I'm quite used to Linux and all it's ups and downs, it always takes a little effort to start
02:22.54mzb_d800:) good ... you won't be disappointed then :)
02:23.19mzb_d800I suspect what you're after is due (or out) in the latest version(s)
02:23.39mzb_d800I seem to recall some chatter about sync improvements recently
02:25.16zyxnullOhh!!! I didn't know that opie has an ftp server on port 4242
02:27.09mzb_d800me neither
02:27.27zyxnullThat'll be nice, ppl from WinCE will ask for that immediately, I didn't even try the WinCE of my pocket, just switched it to Familiar, damn scary thing, not like flash a WRT54G

02:51.50huhlighey mzb_d800 curious
02:52.04huhligyou very adept at databases
02:52.30mzb_d800huhlig: I used to be
02:52.38huhligwhich would you suggest
02:52.41huhligone DB per user
02:52.49huhligor 5 tables per user 1 DB
02:52.57mzb_d800for what purpose?
02:52.58huhligor more tables
02:53.15huhligIm tossing together an exchange clonesqe thing
02:53.27huhligthe data needs to be easily modular
02:53.39mzb_d800in sql?
02:53.41huhligand tossing everything in one DB seems like a bad solution overall
02:53.41huhligyes
02:53.46huhligsql backend
02:54.18mzb_d800one db isn't the issue (imo), it's how you structure your tables
02:54.36huhligwell, there will be a email table
02:54.41huhliga calendar
02:54.43huhlignotes
02:54.51huhligpfs
02:55.02mzb_d800ie. the idea being that you never duplicate anything you could replace with a "link"
02:55.12huhligreletively modular
02:55.22huhligcause I have a few clients who have additional needs
02:55.28huhliga lawyer who needs to store files
02:56.30mzb_d800files in sql? good luck:) ... might be easier to have ftp|dav and put a "files" table with a link to the location of the file ... but afaik putting files in db is *bad*
02:57.14huhligwhy is that
02:57.31huhligwell usually what you have is a gz filesystem
02:57.46huhligso you would have 3 files for a user
02:57.50huhligcurrent.db
02:57.53huhligarchive.db
02:57.55huhligfiles.db
02:57.57Noxxwich webbrowser is recomanded for opie ?
02:58.04huhligerr files.gz
02:58.17mzb_d800Noxx: the one that is installed by default?
02:58.42mzb_d800huhlig: (potentially) big files in db is *bad*
02:58.44Noxxhmmm...
02:59.17NoxxI haven't find it lol
03:04.49Noxxwhere is it ?
03:05.43huhligmzb_d800, so would having 500 db connections open in java be bad?
03:05.53huhligor more
03:06.11mzb_d800java == bad ;)  ... so I can't comment
03:06.26huhligoh
03:06.30huhligwhat is your suggestion
03:06.32huhligbasic C
03:06.35mzb_d800none

03:06.44huhligI take it you dont like programming

03:06.58huhligheh

03:55.52Noxxme too... but
03:56.09Noxxthe only way to restore the screen is by unpluging the card
03:56.13BinaryMutantmzb should i run mkfs.ext2 on my sd card?
03:56.24Noxxand when the screen fizzle, the card stops to be powered
03:56.38BinaryMutantI'd say you've got a bad pda.

04:36.29BinaryMutantokay, I've got an h5500 and I want to partition my 2Gig PNY SD card with the pda because it's the only device I own that can read SD cards. But for some reason when I fdisk /dev/mmc/disc I get an error that says "Unable to read /dev/mmc/disc"
04:39.25mzb_d800do you have another device that can read the card? (eg camera, or computer)
04:39.42BinaryMutantnope, just my pda

21:02.08francethe cluster is great, the hw test are just finishing...
21:02.16francetakes a while to burn them in
21:02.30franceand it took longer assemble and debug than I thought
21:02.34franceabout 50 hours
21:05.31aquadranall nodes are builded ?
21:05.51franceyes - construction is done...
21:05.58francestill need to rack mount them
21:08.19franceand work on some infrastructure to allow folks to use them
21:17.15france--I need to put a note on the front page of hh.org
21:17.26franceabout osu, the hardware that had to be replace..
21:17.27franceetc...
21:17.33francemost of the servers are on ubuntu
21:17.51francethis weekend all the service will be moved to osu, so that the MIT boxes can be upgraded this week to ubuntu
21:22.28aquadranfrance: osu ?
21:22.58franceaquadran, hh.org has a bunch of machines at oregon state university
21:23.18franceI just spent a week there for maintaince and to work on the skiff/ipaq cluster

23:57.50mzb_d800which defeats the purpose of having any security ;)
