00:28.29 | NomNes | is there a web browser in oz? |

00:30.33 | NomNes | it does not seem to be in the feed on http://www.openzaurus.org/official/testing/3.3.5-rc1/shepherd/ipks/ - where can I download it from? |
00:32.48 | zakk | no idea |

00:35.45 | treke|home | then get it from oz 3.2 |
00:36.09 | NomNes | ok Thanks. didn't think of that |
00:43.35 | NomNes | also the package management doesn't work, it complains about a missing aq... file |

02:20.19 | Pendalar | wb |
02:21.04 | ljp | Husky is a dog bred for sled pulling |
02:21.29 | ljp | I think the 760 is shepherd |
02:21.30 | Pendalar | yes |
02:21.32 | offroadgeek | cute |
02:21.44 | Pendalar | husky == c760 |
02:21.46 | ljp | husky might be 750 |
02:21.55 | Pendalar | according to OZ's website |
02:22.05 | ljp | ahh. very well.. what he said |
02:22.10 | Pendalar | shepard == c750 |
02:22.24 | Pendalar | ibot: c760? |
02:22.26 | | Pendalar: parse error: dunno what the heck you're talking about |
02:22.31 | Pendalar | bah =-e |
02:24.09 | jaiotu | ibot: husky |
02:24.12 | | well, husky is Sharp Zaurus SL-C760 or a dog |
02:24.14 | ljp | ibot: c760 is the name of a dog, bred for herding |
02:24.15 | | ljp: okay |
02:25.12 | treke|ho1e | husky is shepherd. c860 is c760 |
02:25.17 | treke|ho1e | and that made no sense. |
02:25.31 | treke|ho1e | husky is c760 and shepherd is c750. |
02:26.44 | Pendalar | husky is c760, shepherd is c750, we never brought c860 into it ;-) |

02:29.30 | ljp | ibot:no, c760 is the name of a dog, bred for pulling sleds |
02:29.32 | | ljp: okay |
02:29.41 | offroadgeek | so I just flashed the husky 3.3.5 onto my 760, and in sysinfo... it shows 750 |
02:33.14 | ljp | maybe you really have a c750 |
02:33.22 | ljp | :) |
02:33.38 | offroadgeek | hah... don't think so |
02:34.22 | offroadgeek | how is the memory split up on 3.3.5? |
02:34.42 | zakk | your memory and I have been talking |
02:34.46 | zakk | and we've decided to split up |
02:34.59 | zakk | you'll get access to RAM style memory on weekends |

02:35.23 | ljp | every other weekend, really |
02:35.30 | zakk | well, we will see |
02:35.47 | ljp | but youhave to be supervised |
02:38.38 | offroadgeek | it is true that none of the oz devs have a 760 or 750? |
02:40.34 | ljp | well, none that count have them :) |
02:40.48 | offroadgeek | hmm... |
02:40.56 | ljp | treke has one |
02:41.01 | offroadgeek | it's a darn pretty rom |
02:41.41 | ljp | yup |
02:42.05 | ljp | treke's obviously not around at the moment |
02:43.09 | jaiotu | anyone have an idea when the 'final' for 3.3.5 might be released? |

04:39.17 | mrwoody | no |
04:39.28 | W8TVI | ok, your using DHCP |
04:39.36 | W8TVI | have your zaurus use DHCP |
04:39.45 | mrwoody | but if i use kismet, i can see my router, but it doesn't give any ip number |
04:39.54 | mrwoody | okie |
04:40.03 | W8TVI | then restart the interface |

04:41.48 | mrwoody | or no specific ? |
04:42.02 | W8TVI | no specific |
04:42.23 | W8TVI | it should work with the "any" setting for the AP |
04:42.40 | mrwoody | okie... but i still cannot get any ip from my wireless router |
04:42.54 | mrwoody | altough the signal seems to be very strong (wlanmon) |
04:43.48 | W8TVI | are you using wep on the ap? |

04:44.08 | W8TVI | thats your problem |

04:52.04 | mrwoody | when you say that wep doesn't work with 3.2 does it mean that it also doesn't work with <3.2? |

05:12.52 | mrwoody | what's wrong? |
05:13.20 | W8TVI | you said the router was the wireless ap |

05:13.27 | W8TVI | I understand that |
05:13.39 | mrwoody | yes |
05:13.52 | mrwoody | + a notebook with windows using the same router |

05:43.36 | TCMAN | offroadgeek: is it really that nice? flashing from MD is so slow |
05:44.43 | offroadgeek | oh yes... it's awesome... I'll never flash to anything else :) |
05:45.29 | W8TVI | yeah you will |
05:45.38 | W8TVI | when 3.3.5 is out |
05:45.39 | offroadgeek | ok... maybe to 3.3.5 |
05:45.42 | offroadgeek | :) |
05:45.54 | offroadgeek | I wonder how well it syncs... |
05:46.05 | W8TVI | its really nice... other than the APM problems |
05:46.14 | W8TVI | better than 3.2 |
05:46.49 | ljp | my images use the old kernel and dont have those small bugs |
05:47.03 | W8TVI | "small bugs"? |
05:47.13 | ljp | 2.4.18 isnt finished yet |
05:47.17 | ljp | for collie |
05:47.29 | kergoth | 2.4.18 has mostly integration issues |
05:47.37 | W8TVI | locking up solid is a small bug? |
05:47.38 | W8TVI | lol |
05:47.53 | W8TVI | its really fast without doc tab |
05:48.13 | ljp | well, thats why it locks up |
05:49.56 | ljp | my ofileselector docstab was fast and didnt lock up |
05:50.20 | W8TVI | ~old |
05:50.23 | | There are three ways of knowing you're getting really old: One is memory loss . . . . and I've forgotten the other two. |
05:50.35 | W8TVI | ljp: doc tab is gone :) |
05:50.45 | ljp | not really |
05:50.54 | W8TVI | well turned off |
05:50.56 | TCMAN | is 3.3.4 any better with sd card ? |
05:51.02 | ljp | it needs to be there, otherwise you get lock ups |
05:51.07 | kergoth | "better with sd card"? |
05:51.16 | ljp | because other classes depends on it |
05:51.18 | kergoth | we still use sharp's drivers. nothing has changed on that front |
05:51.46 | TCMAN | kergoth: crap, because 3.2 used to corrupt my sd cards |
05:52.07 | kergoth | good luck getting sharp to fix it |
05:52.16 | W8TVI | I refuse to use any programs that use crappy palmos type file serch |
05:52.17 | kergoth | itll improve when we switch drivers for 2.4.21 on colllie |
05:52.19 | TCMAN | kergoth: so my last invention was a sync and wait and sd card unmount in suspend script |
05:52.39 | heatxsink | for the suspend / resume bug in the 3.3.5-RC1 rom Deinstall usbd-common right after booting for the first time <---wouldn't that make access through the USB cradle break? |
05:52.47 | ljp | I should really look into reimplementing my docstab |
05:53.22 | W8TVI | heatxsink, who uses the cradle? |
05:53.25 | ljp | and I could probably find where its locking up without it |
05:53.27 | TCMAN | heatxsink: like anyone uses the cradle :) |
05:53.30 | heatxsink | haha |
05:53.32 | heatxsink | okay |
05:53.37 | heatxsink | true.. |
05:53.39 | ljp | I use the cradle |

05:54.09 | heatxsink | hahha |
05:54.10 | heatxsink | oh well |

06:01.49 | heatxsink | TCMAN: sweet |
06:01.50 | TCMAN | busy = code code, then compile compile, then run chip emulation :) |
06:02.11 | heatxsink | TCMAN: i've been doing a kinds of optimization with .NET xml crap |

06:08.28 | heatxsink | TCMAN: how long are your complie runs? |

06:12.11 | heatxsink | anyone know if I put in a WEP key do I need to put those ":" inbetween every two hex numbers? |
06:16.33 | kergoth | no :'s. just the hex value. no 0x prefix, no seperator |
06:17.20 | W8TVI | that was werid... |
06:17.25 | zakk | wtf |
06:17.32 | zakk | I restarted opie and it gave me the first start stuff again |
06:17.50 | W8TVI | it said my cf card was an unsupport card |
06:18.04 | W8TVI | but I ejected it and reinserted it and its fine |
06:18.54 | W8TVI | kergoth: can you make 3.3.5rc1 echo stuff to the screen like on a desktop box during boot? |
06:19.16 | kergoth | no release OZ is going to be overly verbose. |
06:19.29 | kergoth | just rebuild the kernel with console=tty1 instead of null |
06:19.58 | W8TVI | how hard is it to rebuild the kernel? |
06:20.41 | W8TVI | I'm guessing I need the cross compile chain and all that |
06:20.51 | W8TVI | and kernel sources |
06:21.10 | W8TVI | but I've never compiled a kernel before |
06:24.12 | TCMAN | will hostap module be ever upgraded ? |
06:24.19 | W8TVI | I doubt it |
06:24.34 | W8TVI | we'll be forever at version 0.0.0 |
06:25.23 | TCMAN | no its 2002-09 something, and the latest is like 0.1.2 |
06:27.00 | TCMAN | it is a year old or worse |
06:28.32 | zakk | treke|home: I think this suspend thing in the readme for the rc must be what I was hitting before perhaps |
06:29.10 | treke|home | What, it was take 10-15 seconds to suspend? |
06:29.14 | zakk | no |
06:29.19 | zakk | it locked up or something before |
06:29.21 | zakk | I can't remember |
06:29.26 | W8TVI | locked up |
06:29.48 | W8TVI | just get rid of usbd and your fine |

08:09.58 | W8TVI | werid... |
08:10.10 | W8TVI | I'm only getting 2mbit |
08:10.13 | TCMAN | lets try 3.3.5 |
08:10.47 | heatxsink | ahh |
08:10.48 | heatxsink | you doo? |
08:10.49 | TCMAN | W8TVI: hostap tends to do software wep when it doesnt like the card |
08:11.03 | heatxsink | perhaps I should get different drivers? |
08:11.34 | heatxsink | man this is crap |
08:11.40 | W8TVI | I'm using a ambicom wl1100c |
08:11.43 | W8TVI | prism2.5 |
08:11.54 | heatxsink | W8TVI: what drivers are you using? |
08:12.24 | W8TVI | that ones that come with 3.3.4 |

08:12.42 | heatxsink | hrmm.. |
08:12.51 | W8TVI | there we go... |
08:12.57 | W8TVI | bac at 11mbit |
08:13.16 | W8TVI | if I trun on wep it slows it wa down |
08:13.26 | W8TVI | s/wa/way |

09:56.54 | heatxsink | correct |
09:57.00 | TCMAN | sunnyvale is like twice smaller than santa clara |
09:57.01 | heatxsink | I'd think that santa clara isn't ghetto at all |
09:57.03 | heatxsink | actually.. |
09:57.08 | heatxsink | but.. |
09:57.21 | TCMAN | about 60k people in sunnyvale, and 100k in santa clara i think |

17:28.30 | awallace | I'll try that. |
17:29.25 | awallace | One other thing. When i stop opie, i can't log in. The keyboard doesn't respond as It should... Some weird chars are typed sometimes, but most of the times nothing is written to the screen when the keyboard is pressed. |
17:29.48 | awallace | what i wanted to do is an fsck on the sd |
17:29.55 | kergoth | thats odd. that shouldnt _ever_ occur.. |
17:30.05 | kergoth | qte is always supposed to clean up the console keyboard before exiting |
17:30.11 | kergoth | do you have opie-login installed? |
17:30.11 | awallace | Its very frustrating :( |
17:30.21 | awallace | kergoth: yes |
17:30.42 | awallace | but even if i select the "Quit" option on it, i don't get a console I can work with. |
17:30.49 | kergoth | uninstall opie-login |
17:30.54 | kergoth | it does .. odd things |
17:30.59 | awallace | ok. |
17:31.01 | kergoth | then see if you can exit normally |
17:31.24 | awallace | i wanted to exit to see if the SD would not be mounted then, but it might for what you mentioned right? |
17:31.31 | awallace | which is hanging the system. |

17:31.48 | kergoth | yep, as i said opie doesnt do anything with it |
17:31.56 | chouimat | http://www.cbc.ca/stories/2003/11/21/Consumers/power_lines031121 |
17:31.58 | kergoth | it just monitors /etc/mtab to see when it gets mounted on insert |
17:32.29 | awallace | ok, so kill the cardmg deamon I should. |
17:32.34 | kergoth | no. |
17:32.39 | kergoth | cardmgr is pcmcia/cf |
17:32.42 | kergoth | i said sdmgr |
17:32.46 | awallace | right, sorry |
17:33.22 | awallace | it's sad that i could break opie, I was liking what i had installed. |
17:33.55 | awallace | don't know what it was, my closest guess is libsdl |
17:34.54 | awallace | libsdl, sorry |
17:36.45 | *** join/#openzaurus fishy273 (~fishy@adsl-154-19-143.asm.bellsouth.net) |
17:37.56 | awallace | kergoth: thanks a lot for the help, I'll give all that a try, hopefully it will let me fsck the card, but don't know if I will able to fix that setup. The think is that whatever broke opie, won't let me login any way at all. |
17:38.15 | kergoth | np |
17:38.27 | awallace | is there a "single mode" in oz? |
17:38.31 | awallace | single user |
17:38.40 | kergoth | how would you get to it? |
17:38.50 | kergoth | you cant just 'linux single' since you have no access to the bootloader |
17:39.11 | awallace | i see.. .so no way to prevent opie from starting right? |
17:39.23 | kergoth | remove the startup script links.. |
17:39.34 | kergoth | rm -f /etc/rc*.d/S*opie |
17:39.34 | awallace | i guess if i mount the sd and edit the startup script... right. |
17:39.37 | kergoth | rm -f /etc/rc*.d/S*opie* |
17:39.38 | kergoth | heh |
17:39.41 | kergoth | yep |
17:40.06 | awallace | ok, I'll try that, maybe then i can try uninstalling all i installed to see if i can get it back. |
17:40.53 | awallace | one last question and I'll stop bothering you for now: When rc-1 becomes release, would one have to reflash to go to it? |
17:41.40 | kergoth | reflashing is always the recommended upgrade path. it isnt always required, but is always recommended |

21:07.10 | chuckr | Sorry for the newbie question, but the website cautions you should save your present rom before flashing, but doesn't say how ... |
21:07.26 | kergoth | chuckr: where does it say that? |
21:07.45 | chuckr | I don't recall, I;'ve been looking for how to save it for 2 days now. |
21:07.58 | kergoth | um, tar? |
21:08.43 | chuckr | I don't know if it's accessible as a filesystem object, or a area of memory, or some special application, or what. |
21:09.21 | kergoth | what? |
21:09.23 | chuckr | I just bought the 760 and the only thing hollding me up from flashing is this questions |
21:09.43 | kergoth | you dont need to back up anything. the 760 rom updates are available online. if you need to go back to sharp, download them and flash them |
21:10.35 | chuckr | I think I shold explain, my son had grabbed an ealier zaurus of mine and turned it into a brick, so I'm being cautious before I brick it up too (he'd named zImage wrong) |
21:10.48 | mickeyl | brick? |
21:10.48 | kergoth | naming zimage wrong is not bricking it |
21:10.49 | mickeyl | how that |
21:10.54 | kergoth | its making it unbootable temporarily |
21:10.55 | mickeyl | you can always flash again |
21:10.59 | kergoth | "brick" is permanent |
21:11.33 | chuckr | it refused to wake up for 5 days, I finally found out that, if I REALLY tried (8 times in a row) to reset it, it would take |
21:12.03 | kergoth | again, if you mess up a flash, you just reflash. |
21:12.09 | chuckr | this reallyy happened, fellas, I didn't make it up |
21:12.17 | kergoth | you're not listening. |
21:12.31 | kergoth | if you mess up a flash, you reflash. if you hosed something, it wasnt the flash process that did it. |
21:12.41 | kergoth | or you're mistaken about what you think happened. |
21:12.51 | chuckr | perhaps it wasn't the fact of his misnaming the zimage, he'll like that, but it wouuldnt 'awaken for 5 days |
21:12.52 | kergoth | regardless it wasnt bricked. once AGAIN, brick implies permanence. |
21:12.53 | W8TVI | chuckr: kergoth knows what he is talking about |
21:12.57 | kergoth | "awaken"? |
21:13.07 | chuckr | it would not show a light |
21:13.15 | kergoth | so what? |
21:13.17 | W8TVI | "a light"? |
21:13.19 | kergoth | you just reflash. |
21:13.27 | chuckr | it did not react to the otuside world in any fashion whatsoever |
21:13.30 | kergoth | a c7x0 unit that doesnt boot into linux isnt a problem. |
21:13.37 | chuckr | it was a 5600 |
21:13.44 | kergoth | 5600 is identical wrt flash process. |
21:13.56 | chuckr | this happened, how do you explain it? |
21:14.09 | kergoth | I explain it through your obvious misunderstanding of the situation. |
21:14.19 | kergoth | the fact that it doesnt *turn on* does not mean its dead. |
21:14.33 | chuckr | that's entirely possible, but the fact of it being unresponsive for 5 days was a slight problem |
21:14.36 | kergoth | you use one of the two flash procedures to flash again |
21:14.39 | kergoth | wrong. |
21:14.42 | W8TVI | chuckr: you said it worked again after 5 days. you DID NOT brick it |
21:14.45 | kergoth | it was responsive, just not to what you were trying to do. |
21:14.47 | chuckr | it would not wkae up to flash, darn it |
21:15.20 | chuckr | it acted as if it was entirely out of power |
21:15.21 | W8TVI | chuckr: you DID NOT brick it, DAMN YOU. LISTEN!!! |
21:15.29 | kergoth | chuckr: then that had nothing to do with the flash. |
21:15.32 | ljp | details.. who cares |
21:15.34 | kergoth | flashing cannot cause that behavior |
21:15.35 | W8TVI | then you CHARGE it |
21:15.44 | chuckr | OK, I belive you |
21:15.50 | ljp | the real point is, he was having difficulties |
21:15.57 | chuckr | it was not out of power, it just refused to awaken |
21:16.13 | W8TVI | chuckr: how do you know it was out of power? |
21:16.18 | kergoth | the device wasnt suspended. it didnt refuse to awaken. |
21:16.21 | chuckr | the other guys' right, forget it, it's not important |
21:16.39 | W8TVI | ~lart chuckr |
21:16.40 | ljp | I have seen that, but taking the battery out for a few mintues and then back in and charging did the trick |
21:17.08 | ljp | sometime the Z can get into a limbo state |
21:17.13 | W8TVI | ljp: when mine was flat, I had to keep plugging and unpluging untill it would keep charging |
21:17.20 | chuckr | (the thing that's confusing me is, you guys keep saying i t needed reflashing and ignore the fact that you MUIST have alive box to reflash, not the OS, but at least a hot screen. |
21:17.41 | kergoth | the fact is, a device not having sufficient power to get to the flash menu has nothing to do with your actions in the flash process |
21:17.44 | ljp | is that Z still not working? |
21:17.50 | kergoth | you're making an incorrect correlation |
21:18.20 | kergoth | anyway, go ahead and flash. worst case you reflash sharp |
21:18.22 | chuckr | it had power, it just acted like it didn't, it finally woke up after I went into a marathon reset period with it, 8 times in a row, when I had a suggestion to that effect from my son |
21:18.49 | ljp | I would have told you to take the battery out for a few minutes |
21:18.57 | chuckr | that might have worked. |
21:18.58 | ljp | and then try again' |
21:19.23 | chuckr | anyhow, that thing about saving the rom image, that's false? |
21:19.31 | ljp | ya, it would have. I have seen the state you are talking about. and the panic it brings does nothing to calm |
21:19.35 | kergoth | what thing? you still havent pointed out where you got this information |
21:19.47 | ljp | just have a way to reflash another rom |
21:20.20 | ljp | I think he saw that from the ipaq/handhelds site, I believe it talks about saving the rom |
21:20.42 | chuckr | If you've never heard of it, it would save me a while trying to hunt it down again. I read on the night before last about it, but I can't recall where anymore. I am probably wrong if you cna't remember anything like that. |
21:20.58 | ljp | ehh, dont worry about it... |
21:21.02 | chuckr | ok |
21:21.28 | ljp | if you have a zaurus, there are roms available to go back |
21:21.47 | ljp | oenzaurus doesnt flash the bootloader, so its not as dangerous as you think |
21:21.59 | chuckr | Once it woke up, I changed the zimage name to what the website notes said, and it flashed right up |
21:22.09 | ljp | ahh, ok |
21:22.17 | chuckr | I have a 5600 to sell, actually |
21:22.19 | ljp | good |
21:22.23 | ljp | :) |
21:22.35 | ljp | make it a 6000 and I might buy it |
21:22.37 | chuckr | probably go on ebay if there's no immediate callers here. |
21:22.48 | chuckr | I'm not pushing |
21:23.04 | chuckr | just rying to be polite in making the offer |
21:23.11 | ljp | yup. :) |
21:23.13 | W8TVI | chuckr: give it to me :) |
21:23.14 | yeiazel | 5600's suck |
21:23.19 | yeiazel | <== not polite |
21:23.30 | W8TVI | I want the case and battery :) |
21:23.35 | ljp | you ever tried a 5600? |
21:23.44 | W8TVI | no |
21:24.15 | yeiazel | I've tried some 5000, 5500s, and C7x0s... then I know what a 5600 is :) |
21:24.16 | chuckr | I'm not gonna give it away, but I'm not trying to get new price, either. Would a price of, oh, 200 be right? |
21:24.28 | W8TVI | yeah |
21:24.29 | yeiazel | chuckr: 10 and I'll take it |
21:24.43 | W8TVI | 200 is good |
21:24.43 | chuckr | (note I haven't any idea what's right, I haven't done the ebay reserach on it) |
21:24.51 | chuckr | want it? |
21:24.56 | ljp | a lot of people will wait for the sl6000 |
21:25.06 | W8TVI | if I had $200 |
21:25.09 | W8TVI | lol |
21:25.19 | ljp | 200-250 is good price |
21:25.23 | chuckr | (I'm not pushing, go ahead and try to talk him out of it, if it's the right thing to do). |
21:25.52 | chuckr | oh. |
21:26.12 | chuckr | well, I think I shojuld drop it then, someone on eBay will buy it for sure. |
21:26.54 | ljp | np |
21:27.04 | chuckr | anyhow, I gotta go do some flashing. I'll stay andlisten for fun, tho. |
21:29.35 | chuckr | 10guys, what are the choices for Objective-C compilers? any native ones? |
21:30.19 | mickeyl | eek |

22:26.44 | Shdw_work | does anyone make a CF-based I/O card? Something with direct digital lines? |
22:28.35 | kergoth | what are you looking to connect to it? |
22:30.38 | ljp | some electronical device |
22:30.47 | chuckr | on the 760, instructions say to push the power button whilst holding the OK button ... problem is, ther are TWO power buttons (whichone, keyboard one or backpanel one?) |
22:31.00 | ljp | back panel |
22:31.22 | chuckr | that faq needs a bit of light text editing, too. |
22:32.08 | ljp | probably so |
22:33.27 | chuckr | is there any appreciable daly, after the OK-power button thing, before the screen comes alive? |
22:33.40 | chuckr | delay, sorry for my poor typing |
22:34.21 | kergoth | chuckr: flip batt switch to off, hold OK down, flip back switch back, then hit power, keeping OK held down the entire time |
22:34.29 | kergoth | try that |
22:34.56 | chuckr | ok hold one one, it would help if I had 3 hands for this |
22:35.44 | chuckr | what the postion of the screen in all that? |
22:35.54 | kergoth | shouldnt matter |
22:36.08 | chuckr | screen remains blask, let me try it again |
22:37.15 | kergoth | if that doesnt work |
22:37.20 | chuckr | screen still remains black. If I hit the front panel on button , it comes right back and asks for my passwd. |
22:37.24 | kergoth | flip switch, pop battery, unplug AC |
22:37.45 | kergoth | reinsert battery, hold OK, flip switch, hit power, not releasing OK until after that |
22:37.59 | kergoth | removing all its power will cause it to reset |
22:38.14 | kergoth | alternative, hit 'reboot' from the gui, and hold OK down through the reboot cycle |
22:38.20 | kergoth | s/alternative/alternatively/ |
22:38.30 | chuckr | let me try it all again, please hold on |
22:40.00 | *** part/#openzaurus Shdw_work (Data@sourpuss.net) |
22:40.04 | chuckr | switch flipped, battery in my lap |
22:41.04 | chuckr | (verifying the name, it's zImage.bin for the 760, right?) |
22:41.13 | ljp | ya |
22:41.30 | ljp | and you need the updater.sh file also |
22:42.04 | chuckr | I have updater,sh and initrd.bin, yes, all in cf |
22:42.30 | kergoth | you arent getting to the maintainance menu at all then? |
22:42.38 | chuckr | OK, I'm gonna put the battery back now, as yougave it to me |
22:43.22 | chuckr | what about the power cord, shouldn't it need to be inserted during the procedure? |
22:43.46 | chuckr | no maint menu yet |
22:44.01 | ljp | power cord should be in |
22:44.02 | kergoth | this isnt the flash procedure yet, you dont need AC until you actually flash |
22:44.24 | chuckr | the pint I'm at now is, the battery is back, the power is doconnected, the switch is still off |
22:44.43 | chuckr | OK, I will put the power cord back in. |
22:46.35 | chuckr | I got the maint menu now, thanks |
22:46.55 | chuckr | damn it's in japanese ... Oh, yeah, 4th option, I remember |
22:46.59 | kergoth | np |
22:47.45 | chuckr | After I selected cf, there's another completely japanese option, with two choices and one default, do you remeber the way to choose? |
22:48.39 | chuckr | Oh, I see embedded in the Japanese characters, there's a Y and N, maybe it's a last chanc e to bail out? |
22:49.32 | chuckr | it's flashing, thanks, folks |

22:54.29 | chuckr | it seem to be stuck, after it flashed, it said switching to runlevel 6 and rebooting, but the screen hasn't cleared, it's been 3 minutes now, should I help it along any? |

23:04.52 | chuckr | I suppose it possible I have a bad zImage.bin, I'll try again with a freshly downloaded one. At least now I can reliably get to the maint menu (take off the plug in power as well as the battery, holding down the OK the entire time, hit power at the end of it) |

23:17.21 | chuckr | with the new image, it seemed to finsh flashing (like the first one) but it doesn't reboot, what's the correct reboot procedure? |
23:18.38 | chuckr | like, maybe someone knows if one of the other 3 options on the flash screen, once might mean (go back and use the sytem)? |
23:19.02 | kergoth | it should reboot itself. if it hangs at the reboot, something's likely up with the kernel you flashed |
23:19.08 | kergoth | did it show it flashing the rootfs and then the kernel? |
23:20.40 | chuckr | yeah. One funny thing, the second time I flashed I noticed that the line of dots on the second line (the flash line) didn't stretch entirely across the screen before it said finisihed |
23:21.02 | kergoth | it relates to the size of hte image. it puts one dot per some certain block size |
23:21.07 | chuckr | didn't stretch as far as the first (erasing) line |
23:21.07 | kergoth | so obviously kernel is a lot smaller |
23:21.14 | chuckr | oh |
23:21.30 | kergoth | brb |
23:21.47 | chuckr | it's hanging, but my big fear, the bricking, isn't happening, I can reflash fine. |
23:22.27 | chuckr | I have the 4-option screen up now |
23:23.28 | chuckr | shall I try some different image? This one was from experimental/husky, right? |

23:25.40 | chuckr | i suppose I could try anything more stable, but there's some disappointment |
23:26.03 | tuxoverflow | how long before rc2 any ideas - or when it comes!! |
23:33.59 | chuckr | openzaurus.org is extremely slow right now, can someone suggest the right place to get a reasably reliable image for the 760? Surfing through the site will take hours at this rate. |
23:34.47 | chuckr | oh, I think it's down entirely, in fact |
23:35.02 | kergoth | isnt sourceforge great? blech. |
23:35.04 | vvff | I'm not sure if there *is* a reasonably reliable image for the c760 |
23:35.44 | vvff | :-D |
23:38.48 | Disconnect | its almost nov 26 (2 months after the last announcement).. might be about time to post another news blob on the site about how the transition is going.. |
23:39.46 | tuxoverflow | i would put there stick with 3.2 |
23:39.49 | tuxoverflow | for now |
23:40.01 | *** join/#openzaurus aw (~aw@cs2888-53.austin.rr.com) |
23:40.40 | Disconnect | even something like "We're still alive, its going well, check [bk/irc/the stars] for more info." |
23:42.20 | chuckr | is openzaurus on sourceforge? Oh, too bad, I didn't realize that, I wouldn't have wondered then |
23:42.26 | aw | I need to run fsck on an SD card, If i insert the card the way it is, opie hangs when trying to mount it. If i do /etc/init.d/sd stop opie doesn't hang but the device is not detected so i can't fsck it... What can i do to prevent oz mounting the sd? |
23:43.14 | chuckr | what about just telling it to umount it, then do the fsck? |
23:43.25 | kergoth | heh, he just said it hangs when it goes to mount |
23:43.25 | aw | when i insert the card opie hangs |
23:43.52 | aw | kergoth: i know we talked about this a while ago, now that i tryed it, /dev/mmcda1 is not detected |
23:44.08 | Disconnect | tuxoverflow: some of us can't stick with 3.2 :( (c760, got it just after the big "all bugs are closed/unfinished, we're going to the new buildsystem" announcement (doh) |
23:44.11 | kergoth | so sdmgr has to be running to even have hte device exist? |
23:44.14 | kergoth | that cant be right |

23:44.26 | chuckr | I oughta read first ... you'd what, have to change the /etc/fstab file? so it would stop mounting it? |
23:44.27 | aw | kergoth: it looks like it. |
23:44.44 | Disconnect | aw: try stopping sdmgr, then modprobe the sd module (erm.. sd-mod? or sharp-sd? something like that) |
23:44.52 | aw | chuckr: I have edited /etc/fstab, but it still mounts it. |
23:45.05 | aw | Disconnect let me try that. Thanks! |
23:45.13 | chuckr | huh, ok, I don't know linux that well yet |
23:45.30 | kergoth | the module shoudl be autoloaded on boot (/etc/modules) |
23:45.34 | chuckr | did you hup mountd? |
23:46.08 | kergoth | chuckr: sd mount commands are issued by sdmgr. |
23:46.24 | chuckr | ok I'll be quiet and read |
23:46.45 | Disconnect | chuckr: mountd (at least on most systems) is for nfs stuff. nothing to do with local mounts, removable media, etc. |
23:47.36 | aw | Ok, this is funny, when i log off opie then the system doesn't hang if i insert the card, I've unmounted it an am fscking it right now. |
23:47.37 | chuckr | I thgouth it was also used for automatic mounts, I guess I'm wrong |
23:47.44 | Disconnect | random quickie, before I go.. is 3.3.5-rc1 up to a point where its worth installing on a 760? |
23:47.52 | Disconnect | aw: prolly the 'hang' was it searching for documents. |
23:48.32 | Disconnect | (and never finishing, evidently) |
23:49.04 | aw | I also did the "all boot from sd", would that do it too? |
23:49.26 | aw | Disconnect: how does one disable the "document search" feature? |
23:49.39 | kergoth | in theory, you use the mediummount tool |
23:49.41 | Disconnect | aw: not sure. I think there is a patch (in HEAD?) for it but thats real recent. |
23:50.06 | kergoth | yeah, HEAD has the ability to kill the docs tab completely |
23:51.26 | aw | kergoth: i have it so that it does not do medium checking but still... I have rc-1 so if i kill the docs tab that should do it? |
23:51.40 | vvff | kergoth: hey, why not forget about 2.4.22 or 18 or whatever and have the next oz be 2.6.0? |
