| 00:09.00 | aTypical | Hello |
| 00:09.21 | netsplit | Hi aTypical. |
| 00:09.47 | aTypical | Hi, netsplit. How's it going? |
| 00:15.38 | netsplit | Fine, thanks and with you? |
| 00:27.30 | tanq | ugh.. has anyone else had any problems with ipkg |
| 00:27.42 | tanq | from 3.5.1 for the 5600 |
| 00:30.46 | aTypical | Sorry, tanq. I've never owned a 5600. |
| 00:31.28 | aTypical | netsplit, I've just installed Fedora Core 3 and want to sync to it. I was hoping someone else had already done it and could walk me through it. |
| 00:38.34 | tanq | hmmm |
| 00:40.46 | netsplit | Haven't you been asking about sync'ing with Linux for a long time? ... guess still no answers :/ |
| 00:41.52 | aTypical | netsplit, yes and no. I had Fedora Core 2 which I understand was not a problem syncing with. I then read that Core 3 was coming out so I figured I'd wait instead of messing with it. |

| 00:47.27 | orangey | hey guys! |
| 00:47.47 | orangey | if I wish to get a zaurus in ~ 5 - 6 months, can I count on a 6000 or 5600 to run oz by then? |
| 00:48.14 | kergoth | they can both run oz today. only the 5600 is officially supported in a release today. |
| 00:48.18 | kergoth | short answer: hell yes |
| 00:50.05 | orangey | cool. |
| 00:50.16 | orangey | I thought I read on the main site that it was to be supported in the future.. |
| 00:50.35 | kergoth | the plan is for the 6k to be supported in 3.5.2. |
| 00:50.44 | netsplit | kergoth: any idea when that might come out? |
| 00:50.53 | kergoth | a number of oz users funded the purchase of a 6k for me so i could ensure that its well supported |
| 00:51.04 | kergoth | netsplit: afaik the plan is for in a week or two. mickey is the release manager |
| 00:51.17 | kergoth | i should be able to have the 6k support relatively solid by then |
| 00:51.18 | netsplit | Oh wow, that's nice. |
| 00:53.35 | netsplit | kergoth: will 3.5.2 also support flashing from SD card? |
| 00:53.55 | kergoth | hm? |
| 00:54.05 | aTypical | kergoth, when you get OZ for the 6000 I'll give you a hug. ;-) |
| 00:54.13 | kergoth | every zaurus but the sl5500 and sl5000d supports cf or sd |
| 00:54.17 | kergoth | only the 5500 is limited to cf |
| 00:54.22 | netsplit | kergoth: I mean flashing from it. |
| 00:54.29 | kergoth | i know what you mean. |
| 00:54.32 | kergoth | tahts what i'm telling you |
| 00:54.41 | kergoth | only the 5500 cannot flash from sd |
| 00:54.52 | netsplit | Oh, I thought I read somewhere that I should only flash from CF, but if you say SD works, then that's great. |
| 00:55.02 | kergoth | the old openzaurus.org site was taken down for a reason |
| 00:55.14 | kergoth | most of the old content was worthless |
| 00:55.20 | kergoth | and what wasnt worthless only applied to the 5500 |
| 00:55.46 | kolla | I have flashed my SL5500 with SD :) |
| 00:55.59 | kolla | (using an adapter though, hehe) |
| 00:56.29 | kergoth | someone literally hex edited the sharp updater app (that runs on the Z) to use a different crc, adn thereby be able to flash from sd |
| 00:56.34 | kergoth | but that was a hack, and was never supported |
| 00:56.40 | kergoth | (i still have it in my inbox somewhere) |
| 00:56.47 | kergoth | for the 5500, that is |
| 00:56.53 | kolla | kergoth: can newer models also use SD for other than storage? |
| 00:57.02 | kergoth | no, sdio is not supported by anything |
| 00:57.07 | kolla | ok |
| 00:57.12 | netsplit | sdio? |
| 00:58.01 | kergoth | netsplit: sd wireless cards and the like. |
| 00:59.39 | netsplit | kergoth: is write-speed important in an SD card for lets say running normal apps like a browser and a PDF viewer? |
| 00:59.54 | kergoth | hm? |
| 01:00.00 | kergoth | why would write speed have to do with anything? |
| 01:00.12 | kergoth | running the app just reads it off the card into ram and executes it |
| 01:00.50 | netsplit | OK. Thanks kergoth. |
| 01:00.50 | kolla | and keeps this strange "lock" on the filesystem from which it is started.. the unix way :) |
| 01:01.27 | *** join/#openzaurus sunny (sunny@sunny.user) |
| 01:24.32 | cyn | the lock isn't kept on the fs it was run from is it |
| 01:24.35 | cyn | should just be in /var |
| 01:42.32 | kolla | cyn: well, you cannot remove the filesystem a program has been started from |
