20:03.40TC-Ruchohello
20:04.23TC-RuchoI need to add built in support for compact flash to the familiar kernel so I can boot from it but I haven't found it's conf anywhere
20:04.42TC-Ruchois there any way I can get the kernel's conf file?
20:46.50*** join/#handhelds RedDak (n=dak@host54-85-dynamic.10-87-r.retail.telecomitalia.it)
20:56.33TC-Ruchoanyone?
21:00.12pH5TC-Rucho: what kernel, what conf? There are defconfig files for many devices in arch/arm/configs.
21:00.36TC-Ruchohmm
21:00.54TC-RuchoI just formatted the CF containing familiar linux
21:01.17TC-RuchoI'm gonna compile my own kernel, gonna install Gentoo
21:01.35TC-RuchoI don't think it will be that hard to get it working in the iPAW
21:01.41TC-RuchoiPAQ*
21:02.15TC-Ruchohx4700, damnit, if I knew about zaurus by the time I bougt the iPAQ......
21:02.28TC-Ruchohad known*
21:04.13pH5I think you need some userspace support to boot from CF, see http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/BootingLinuxFromCF
21:08.00TC-RuchopH5: Brickin a device means you can't even get the serrial shell used to flashthe device?
21:10.46pH5TC-Rucho: bricking usually means to break it to the point where you need JTAG to revive it.
21:10.54pH5although on hx4700 this is quite improbable because you'll never overwrite the original htc bootloader.
21:11.14TC-Ruchohmm, making an initrd makeks more sense in terms of config time, the thing is that I still want portage
21:11.27TC-RuchoI see
21:12.24TC-RuchopH5: there's something that's been bothering me about using familiar on my iPAQ. Battery.... even on suspended mode it keeps eating and eating the battery
21:12.34TC-Ruchoeven the device heats
21:12.56TC-RuchoIt is not supposed to do that, is it?
21:13.33pH5TC-Rucho: no. familiar is just _very_ old. I think most of those issues are fixed in recent kernels.
21:14.04TC-Ruchowould you recommend me other distribution for the HP hx4700?
21:14.38TC-Ruchoby the way, I'm used to Gentoo's _everything_
21:15.06TC-Ruchoso it would be preferably to have a Gentoo based one
21:17.25pH5TC-Rucho: if you use gpe, you should give angstrom a try. if you use opie/qtopia, I don't know.
21:17.43pH5there are also some people who run complete gentoo on the hx (http://kmeaw.com/ipaq-gentoo)
21:17.54pH5you could search the hx4700-port mailing list archives for more info on that
21:18.02TC-RuchopH5: I'll use whatever gives me the most of my device
21:18.34TC-Ruchosince gpe is X based I think I'll go full blown with gpe even if I hate gtk
21:18.52TC-Ruchoopie is framebuffer based afaix
21:18.56TC-Ruchoafik*
21:19.00TC-Ruchoshi
21:19.05TC-Ruchoafaik*
21:19.07pH5yes, it is :)
21:25.03TC-RuchopH5: you use qwerty, right?
21:25.03TC-RuchoI have my own dvorak map files for X, but do you know where can I mod the on screen keyboard of gpe?
21:28.22pH5TC-Rucho: both xkbd and matchbox-keyboard have their own layout files that you can modify (/usr/share/xkbd/*.xkbd or /usr/share/matchbox-keyboard/*.xml)
21:28.42TC-RuchoAWESOME TIP pH5
21:28.46TC-Ruchothanks a ton
21:28.53TC-RuchoI was looking for the layout files
21:28.58TC-Ruchobut didn't find them
