02:14.57 | mattcamp | Anyone considered using diet libc for the shell, init, and other small utilities and daemons? I figured that would reduce RAM usage somewhat. |
02:15.47 | kergoth | i'd rather go with uclibc myself |
02:17.12 | mattcamp | Because it's a shared lib? |
02:17.23 | kergoth | uhh |
02:17.32 | kergoth | you've never heard of static linking apparently. |
02:17.49 | kergoth | oh, nm |
02:17.49 | kergoth | heh |
02:17.52 | kergoth | misunderstood |
02:18.07 | kergoth | uclibc is incredibly full featured.. we could use it as a full fledged glibc replacement |
02:18.26 | kergoth | we'd lose bc, but i'm sick of being held back by sharp compat anyway |
02:18.44 | mattcamp | Sorry I was unclear. |
02:18.55 | mattcamp | And we'd lose compatibility with proprietary apps. |
02:19.01 | kergoth | that too |
02:19.19 | kergoth | at least the loss of bc due to a gcc2 -> gcc3, or qt2 -> qt3 can be solved via compatibility packages |
02:19.46 | kergoth | i dont think the uclibc ld-linux.so can link glibc binaries, so i dont think a glibc compat package would work |
02:20.46 | mattcamp | Yeah, I was thinking it would be better to link statically with diet libc for some utilities and then link with glibc for Qt apps, since statically linking Qt apps would prouce a lot of huge binaries. |
02:21.23 | mattcamp | That way we retain compatibility with proprietary apps that use glibc. Yeah, I know it's better if software is free, but some proprietary software (I'm thinking of speech synthesizers) really has no good free equivalent. |
02:21.55 | kergoth | in the qtopia/opie realm, i havent seen anything along those lines yet |
02:21.57 | kergoth | but point taken |
02:22.11 | mattcamp | I'm starting work on a Zaurus ROM for blind people, and I'm thinking I'll have to use a proprietary speech synthesizer. |
02:22.30 | kergoth | ah |
02:22.40 | kergoth | feel free to use OZ. just grab our buildsystem and produce some images |

02:50.57 | mattcamp | I wonder why OZ has a php package. Does anyone actually run a web server on their Z? |
02:51.38 | Solar[X] | It'd be very handy for development. |
02:51.58 | Solar[X] | I can imagine I'll use it some day. |
02:52.15 | mattcamp | Doesn't look like OZ has a web server package though. |
02:52.21 | kergoth | nanoweb is a nice small web server that is *written* in php |
02:52.24 | kergoth | therefore it supports php |
02:52.28 | Solar[X] | And if it weren't such a waste, I'd set it up as a web server. |
02:52.32 | kergoth | also, php is a fine commandline scripting language |
02:52.46 | Solar[X] | There is an apache package on killefiz.de I think. |
02:52.53 | kergoth | apache is a waste |
02:52.59 | kergoth | there are plenty of small web servers |
02:53.04 | kergoth | boa, nanoweb, thttpd, etc |
02:53.04 | Solar[X] | Probably |
02:53.59 | mattcamp | Anyone looked at fnord? 18k statically linked binary with CGI support (well, 18k on the x86 anyway). |
02:54.47 | mattcamp | Actually fnord also requires another program called tcpserver which is about 46k statically linked with diet libc. |
02:55.42 | kergoth | i'm a fan of boa myself, when i dont need php |

03:04.57 | mithro | we use it in out code generation language |

03:29.00 | kergoth | zap-zero: linux doesnt pay attention to partition type in the dos partition table when mounting |

03:31.25 | kergoth | you dont |

03:35.58 | zap-zero | you need a cf, not sd, for flashing |
03:36.11 | kergoth | depends on the type of Z |
03:36.16 | zap-zero | oh |
03:36.21 | kergoth | c7x0 can flash from sd/cf |

23:49.29 | cleverdra | is the 3.2 OZ initrd.bin compressed in any way? |
23:49.57 | mattcamp | It's a jffs2 file system, which uses compression. |
23:50.30 | cleverdra | Oh, not ext2fs. |
23:50.43 | mattcamp | Right. |

23:51.57 | cleverdra | How do you mount such filesystems under the Z? 'mount -o loop -t jffs2 initrd.bin t' gives me "No such device" |
23:52.50 | mattcamp | What Zaurus ROM are you running now? |
23:53.39 | cleverdra | Sharp ROM 3.1 (-- the initrd in question is OZ, as I said. I've a 5500 and a 5000D; the OZ ROM will go on the 5000D for now.) |
23:54.45 | mattcamp | The Sharp ROM uses cramfs (which is why it's truly read-only unlike OZ), so to mount the OZ filesystem on your Zaurus you'll need to find a jffs2 kernel module or cross-compile it. |
23:55.36 | cleverdra | ah, OK. I'll flash the 5000D and try to mount this under it =) |
23:56.08 | mattcamp | Yeah, that ought to work. |
