00:11.49kergoth_hm?
00:12.05blitzrageoh, I just read the wiki which lists the known issues :)
00:12.09blitzragein 3.5.1
00:14.41*** join/#openzaurus MrZaius (~cragos@199.8.171.180)
00:18.18MrZaiusI picked up a new 1gb sandisk CF card for my SL5500, replacing a 128mb from some other company, and now, whenever it resumes it ejects and reloads the card, causing my mp3 player to segfault
00:18.29MrZaiusdidn't ever do that eject/reload thing with the 128mb card
00:18.32MrZaiusis there a quick fix?
00:19.59*** join/#openzaurus CuZnDragon (~rcook@66.140.245.97)
00:20.37MrZaiusetc/oz_version: 3.3.4, the pre-OE build with opie
00:20.56kergoth_3.3.x isnt supported by us.
00:21.01kergoth_but no, there is no quick fix
00:22.06*** join/#openzaurus kolla (kolla@xn--frde-gra.home.uninett.no)
00:22.53MrZaiusproblem likely to stick around in 351?
00:23.07kergoth_the problem is likely a kernel issue.
00:27.01*** join/#openzaurus aTypical (~Jason@24-205-15-144.mpk-eres.charterpipeline.net)
00:27.05MrZaiuswill 3.5.2 have a new kernel/possible fix?
00:27.16kergoth_no.
00:27.25kergoth_we're using sharp's kernel until we make the move to 2.6.
00:29.06MrZaiusokay.  is the problem one related to just specific cards/manufacturers, or is it a size issue?
00:29.10MrZaius(last question)
00:29.28kergoth_neither.
00:29.33kergoth_its likely a flaw in the kernel's pcmcia handling
00:29.47kergoth_highly unlikely that it's specific to either manufacturer or size
00:30.08MrZaiusso dropping in just about any other gigabyte cf card oughta fix it?
00:30.25kergoth_once again, the problem isnt likely to be specific to manufacturer
00:30.30kergoth_what part of that do you fail to understand?
00:30.44MrZaiushmm?
00:30.45kergoth_if th eproblem isnt bound to manufacturer, then changing manufacturer isnt going to affect the behavior, now is it?
00:30.50kollawhat's the problem?
00:30.57kergoth_kolla: CF unmount/remount suspend/resume.
00:31.04kollaoh
00:31.06MrZaiusif it's not tied to size or manufacturer, and the last card worked w/o this problem, it seemed a fair enough question
00:31.28kergoth_if it isnt bound to size or manufacturer, then there's no way to say when it will occur and when it wont.
00:31.37MrZaiusokay.
00:31.38MrZaiusthanks
00:31.42kergoth_isnt logic fun?
00:32.56MrZaiusthat would have worked as an answer to the question above.  rough day?
00:33.00*** part/#openzaurus MrZaius (~cragos@199.8.171.180)
00:33.21kollaheh
00:33.38kergoth_no, i like to make users learn to use their minds.  an exercise in futility, certainly, but hey
00:33.52kergoth_aw
00:36.04kollamf.. my wlan card wont set its essid :P
00:38.20kollaperhaps it's broken :/
00:39.09kollatonights happening was the successfull buildt of a native toolchain (gcc-3.4.3) for the nslu2 :)
00:39.46kergoth_3.4.3? is that out?
00:40.25kollaNovember 4, 2004
00:40.25kollaGCC 3.4.3 has been released.
00:40.28kolla:)
00:40.32kollaI assume that's a yes
00:40.49kergoth_nifty
00:40.52kergoth_i should add that to oe
00:40.54kollait fixed my endian problems
00:41.10kergoth_kolla: i got the gcc ipk that oe emits to work the other day :)
00:41.18kollacool!
00:41.30kergoth_yeah, oz will have a usable native development environment soon
00:41.35kergoth_and of course openslug gets it as well
00:41.44kollayes, that's really really nice :
00:41.45kolla:)
00:42.07kergoth_course i'll never use it, but people keep requesting it, so..
00:42.09kergoth_:)
00:42.12kollahehe
00:42.47kollaI think the slug is quite ok to build on
00:43.11kollabut then I'm also used to building on m68k.. glibc on my 50MHz 030 takes like.. almost two weeks
00:43.12kolla:)
00:43.14kergoth_bah, i'm too impatient for that
00:43.24kergoth_i'lll hack on a package for hours to make it crosscopmile instead
00:43.28kergoth_:)
00:43.44kollalast time I compiled glibc I went on holidays and checked in from various internet cafes every now and then :)
00:43.50kergoth_HAH
00:43.52kergoth_er
00:43.52kergoth_hah
00:43.56kolla:)
00:44.07kergoth_i've got a cygwin build going
00:44.15kergoth_uclibc builds under cygwin take longer than glibc does under linux.
00:44.17kergoth_how fucked up is that
00:44.19kergoth_:\
00:45.43kollaheh
00:46.01kollawhat takes so much time with glibc, from my experience, is the iconv checks

02:06.32tanqi like the comment they made though
02:07.18tanq"It sucks, but if any community can handle themselves without a corporate support net, it's Zaurus users. Half of them are running modified and hand-rolled ROMs already""It sucks, but if any community can handle themselves without a corporate support net, it's Zaurus users.

02:07.31tanqoops.. i thought something weird happened
02:07.44tanqthis dial up connection blows
02:07.47kolla:)
02:08.20kollawell, it doesnt help much with a community if there's no hardware available
02:09.56kollaone zaurus is enough for me though, find them a bit too akward
02:12.34ljpsharp has since retracted that statement a bit
02:13.01kollaoh, that was their statement? :)
02:13.41kollaperhaps Sharp should ask themselves _why_ half of the zaurus users run modified roms :)
02:13.52kergothhehe

02:15.17kollapalm is really putting an effort into creating devices that lacks the features I want :)
02:15.35ljpwhat features are that?
02:16.07kollabluetooth, wifi and keyboard
02:16.12kollathat simple :)
02:16.48kollacan have two of them, but not all at once :)
02:17.23ljpwhy ot?
02:17.25ljpnot
02:17.58kolladont know, they simply dont have a model with both wifi and bluetooth

02:54.07tanqhye i have a question... sometime yesterday when i was installing packages my network stuff got messed up
02:54.27tanqso now for my wifi i can see the network but my dhcp wont work
02:54.37tanqits like i can't get an ip address
02:55.20tanqthe only thing in my settings now is wlan0, wifi0, and lo
02:55.34tanqmy eth0 and all of the pp stuff disappeared
02:55.40tanqnot that i really used them anyway
03:02.07*** join/#openzaurus deki (~dk5hr@ipv6.reiner-h.de)
03:02.27tanqany idea what i broke.

03:03.26kollaeth0?
03:03.40kollawlan0 is what you're supposed to use
03:03.47kollaif you have a wireless card that is
03:03.55kolla(which you obviously have)
03:04.47tanqyeah i type iwconfig and all is well
03:04.54tanqbut i can't get an ip
03:04.58kollaI have a similar problem with gentoo though, it seems like iwconfig doesnt set the essid
03:05.06tanqit doesnt
03:05.19tanqyou have to do iwconfig ath0 essid somessidhere
03:05.41tanqi wrote a script to set my network configs
03:05.44kollawell ,that's what I meant.. I can do that, but it sill says ESSID="" afterwards :)
03:06.03tanqi think you have to be root
03:06.11kollaanyways, I just chroot back to the internal flash and set up the network from there.. that still works :)
03:06.17kollaI am root :)
03:06.22tanqhmm
03:06.33kollaI'm rebuilding wireless-tools now
03:06.33tanqeh ?
03:07.40tanqi know i'm missing a step here
03:07.52tanqwhere do i go to actually start the netowrk
03:08.27tanqman i did a massive braindump on this.. see on my laptop i set iwconfig then do /etc/init.d/net.ath0 start
03:08.43tanqwhich is about equiv to ifconfig ath0 up
03:09.07kollagentoo, huh? :)

03:10.02kollaath0? sounds redhat
03:10.17tanqit's just a name
03:10.32kollaa as in air? :)

09:49.51Xyo|workis it theoretically possible to recompile firefox, that it could work in opie?
09:53.53hrw|workXyo|work: not
09:55.40Xyo|workunfortunatelly konqueror-embedded is still in 2003 :(
09:56.09hrw|workthat's last version which build with qt/e 2.3.x
09:56.45hrw|workafter qt/e 4 release opie team maybe will switch to it
10:03.32XorAXyo|work: there is a kde effort to port firefox to QT, go use google and join in
10:03.51hrw|workXorA: to qt3 which opie doesn't use
10:04.38XorAhrw|work: thought the kdepimpi people had some conversion layer
10:05.11hrw|workXorA: they only get some functions from qt3
10:05.23hrw|workXorA: similar to libqtaux2 from opie
10:05.44XorAah well :-(
10:06.16XorAlinks -g works well on portait devices :-)
