03:36.37raleighim trying to commumicate with a ti86 calculator through the zaurus headphone jack...
03:36.40raleighideally i would read a byte at a time
03:36.46raleighbut...
03:37.33raleighhttp://www.ossh.com/zaurus/mirrors/docs.zaurus.com/audio_howto.shtml says AFMT_U8 is buggy on the zaurus
03:37.46W8TVIwhy not use a serial cable?
03:37.52W8TVIthe zaurus has a serial port
03:38.20raleighjust for fun
03:41.47ljpI found 8 bit audio buggy on the original kernels
03:42.11raleighbut its not anymore?
03:42.15ljpmight be different in openzaurus, but you can always resample
03:42.34treke|homeyeah but he doesnt want to get audio data :)
03:42.52ljpits all bits
03:43.17matr1xheh
03:43.17treke|homehow do you resample a serial stream? :p
03:43.36ljpumm.. very carefully
03:45.16matr1xwhats the average battery time on a zaurus running OZ? best estimate?
03:45.40ljpdepends on what you use it for
03:45.55matr1xsay ebook reading
03:45.56ljpwifi sniffing you arent going to get too much
03:46.14matr1xsomeone should make a chart :)
03:46.31ljpthe zaurus isnt known for long bettery life
03:46.37matr1xyah
03:47.16ljpif its plugged into power, you can read a long time :)
03:48.11matr1xi bought one despite that, havent got it yet but im just looking around with google at all the stuff thats been done
03:51.14raleighljp, can you explain how i can 'resample'?
03:53.29RedBeard-matr1x: I've had good success reading ebooks on mine.
03:53.52RedBeard-but I turned the back light almost off, and still kept it pluged in as much as possible
03:56.32matr1xdoes kpilot work with the zaurus?
03:57.17RedBeard-duno.  I haven't tried.  I've just pulled my CF flash card, put it in the pc reader, copied over the files I want then plugged it back into the Z
04:06.42raleighoh well... i think ill just read a byte at a time and hope for the best
04:13.03raleighif i read from /dev/dsp into a buffer, read() should return sizeof(buffer), right?
04:13.19raleighand if they arent the same, i have an error

14:47.29PhantomsDadSome CF wireless cards are Type II and some are Type I/II.  Does this matter? (Oz 3.3.5, SL-5500).
14:47.35yeiazelno
14:47.50yeiazelbut don't you know what 'politeness' means ?
14:48.00sonix`:-p
14:48.16PhantomsDadyeiazel: Excuse me?  Was I impolite?
14:48.24sonix`no
14:48.27sonix`you werent polite
14:48.29yeiazeldid you say "hello" ?
14:48.41yeiazelyou came, asked your question
14:48.54sonix`bossing us around as if you own us
14:49.00PhantomsDadyeiazel: No, I apologize. Hello everyone.  Hope you had a happy holiday.
14:49.13yeiazel:)
14:49.18yeiazelhello PhantomsDad
14:49.49yeiazelthe CF card 'Type' is the thickness of the card
14:49.55yeiazellike for PCMCIA cards
14:49.58yeiazelthat's all
14:50.29yeiazelthe Z has a Type II CF slot, you can put Type I and Type II cards
14:50.51yeiazelif they existed, you wouldn't be able to use Type III CF cards :)
14:51.00PhantomsDadAnother question please.  Should I stick with cards that are known to work in SL-5500, or will almost any 802.11b card work?
14:51.02yeiazel(but Type III only exists for PCMCIA)
14:51.12yeiazelPhantomsDad: any that has a prism chip
14:51.20sonix`I SECOND THAT!
14:51.22sonix`woops
14:51.24sonix`caps lock
14:51.37sonix`dealing with drivers on a PDA isa bitch
14:51.46yeiazelif it's not directly recognized, you would just have to add 3 or 4 lines to a config file
14:51.53yeiazelas long as it's prism, it's good
14:52.01sonix`I got teh ambicom
14:52.02sonix`its good
14:52.07sonix`my friend got a sony
14:52.10sonix`looks slicker than mine
14:52.17sonix`both provide plug and play
14:52.33yeiazelgot a linksys WCF12
14:52.41yeiazelworks with OZ
14:52.43sonix`there was smethign about those cards
14:52.47sonix`linksys ones
14:52.52yeiazelyes, WCF11
14:53.03yeiazelthe antenna was pcmcia-size-wide
14:53.04sonix`yeah it sucked major balls or something
14:53.23yeiazelblocking the stylus and the jack slot
14:54.05PhantomsDadUm, not good.  Glad I asked.  Is the WCF12 802.11b?
14:55.32PhantomsDadI'm not familiar with the Sony.  Got a model number?
14:55.37sonix`nope
14:55.37sonix`sorry
14:55.44yeiazelPhantomsDad: yes it is
14:58.24PhantomsDadThere's a list of cards at http://myzaurus.com/acc_Comm2.asp.  The WCF11 is listed there.  The Ambicom is also included.  (I'm asking 'cus I'm about to go out and try to buy a card, so I'd like to know which ones will work well with Oz 3.3.5.)
14:58.45yeiazelgo for a prism
14:58.55yeiazellynksys are prism
14:58.58yeiazels/y/i/

22:29.51pb_ibot, collie?
22:29.52well, collie is sharp sl-5500 and sl-5000d, or a dog
22:29.55pb_ibot, corgi?
22:29.56somebody said corgi was sharp sl-c700, or a dog
22:30.00pb_you get the idea.
22:30.44George-ibot: poodle
22:30.45i heard poodle is sharp sl-b500/5600, or a dog
22:32.03somervil_why not just name them something intuitive
22:32.12treke?
22:32.25somervil_like zaurusslc760
22:32.38trekebecause it isn't as fulfilling
22:33.03George-somervil_: because that's what Sharp chose to call them.
22:33.15somervil_They did ?

22:33.18George-...
22:33.32somervil_wow... crazy ... so what is th c760  ?
22:33.36trekehusky
22:33.47George-ibot: husky
22:33.48from memory, husky is Sharp Zaurus SL-C760 or a dog
22:38.15chouimathi George-
22:38.33George-chouimat: piss off
22:38.49chouimatGeorge-: no
22:39.06somervil_is updater.sh in japanese, or just compressed somehow ?
22:39.10trekechouimat: dont you have ops in here?
22:39.24chouimattreke: nope :(
22:39.34trekeGeorge-: can you join #openembedded please?
22:39.36George-no, he's a blasted frog.
22:39.44chouimattreke: ;)
22:39.48George-treke: no, beacuse chouimat is an op in there
22:39.53George-treke: and chouimat is a gay frog
22:40.21George-in fact, I'm going to ignore him.
22:40.59chouimattreke: I just say hi and everytime he said obscenities and put me on ignore ...
22:41.12trekehe's predictable
22:41.24trekechouimat: I've got debian on my ppc now
22:41.26trekechouimat: it's yummy
22:41.47chouimattreke: I need to get one of those ... but they have all sold their ibook g3 :(
22:42.09chouimattreke: so I need to work a little before getting a g4
22:47.08somervil_anyone have the sl-c760... im having trouble with install ... im following the instructions for the c700, but it doesnt seem to be working
22:47.11somervil_i plug in
22:47.24somervil_power off
22:47.37somervil_slide battery slider over and back
22:47.52somervil_then hold the ok button next to the power button while pressing the power button
22:47.56somervil_and nothing happens
22:50.05pb_I think the drill for c760 is a bit different.  iirc, you need to actually pop the battery out rather than just flipping the switch.
22:51.31somervil_thanks... actually its slide switch, take battery out, remove power adapter, then replace all, and holdok and power
22:53.02somervil_here goes... : )

23:35.27somervil__is the usbnet driver unstable ??? Iv just had kernel panic when plugging in my zaurus
23:37.05trekeuntable is being generous
23:37.21somervil__that really sucks...
23:38.40Rackwhat is the 'file browser' on the zaurus?
23:39.17somervil__im also having really wierd problems with my zaurus... when ever it suspends because it hasnt been touched for a while... it wont turn back on  properly... it will turn on for 3 seconds and then blank back out, and the touch screen is unresponsive
23:39.30trekeyou need to upgrade
23:39.39trekesounds like you use an older snapshot
23:41.05somervil__im using husky 3.3.5
23:41.13somervil__do I need to get it from cvs ?
23:41.31trekeThe bug shouldnt be there  in 3.3.5
23:41.38trekeI know it isnt in newer builds
23:41.55trekeI just dont recall where it was actually fixed
23:42.07somervil__http://www.openzaurus.org/official/3.3.5/husky/ is where I got it
23:42.19trekeI guessed as much.
23:42.39George-somervil__: yeh, I had that trouble with the suspend/resume on my 2.4.18 hack (which is almost identical to the 2.4.18 in 3.3.5)
23:42.43George-somervil__: try 3.3.6-pre1
23:43.07trekeI think the fix was in the C860 source tree, so 3.3.6 would probably do it
23:43.31somervil__cool... ill try it
23:43.59somervil__... if i can manage to plub it in without crashing my computer : /

23:47.50Rackanyone use SD memory with the zaurus?
23:47.55Rackor is cf preferred?
23:48.13ljpI use both
23:50.41trekesame
23:50.43somervil__is cvs handeled by sourceforge? ... i noticed the release files have been depreciated
23:50.53trekewe dont use cvs
23:50.57trekeibot bitkeeper
23:50.58extra, extra, read all about it, bitkeeper is at http://www.bitkeeper.com/ or at http://www.bitmover.com/ or hosted trees at http://www.bkbits.net/ or like cvs and subversion, but its non-opensource.. but its really good, even linus uses it to develop the kernel!
23:52.40somervil__do I need a bitkeeper client to get 3.3.6-pre1 ?
23:53.16Pendalarno
23:53.33Pendalarit's on the website normally unless it's been moved
23:53.48Pendalarbitkeeper is for the building system.. different thing
23:55.11somervil__its not obvious where to find it on the website... can you point me to it ?
23:55.26Pendalarit's at http://www.openzaurus.org/official/experimental/collie
23:55.31Pendalarassuming you have a sl5500
23:55.38Pendalaror 5000d
23:56.11Pendalardo look at the readme
23:56.27Pendalarbecause there's some things you'll be griping about later if you don't
23:56.40somervil__Im using husky... which has nothing but updater.sh
23:56.53somervil__will the collie work in the stead of husky ?
23:56.58Pendalarno
23:56.59trekeno
23:57.07Pendalarthat would be bad (TM)
23:58.05somervil__so im up shit creek ?
23:58.40ljpyup. better just send me the c760
23:59.03Pendalarheh
23:59.14Pendalarsomervil__: just use whatever the stable husky is for a bit
