00:40.15kairiPendalar, you put your left hand in, you put your stylus hand out, you put your right elbow in, and you shake it all about
00:40.32kergoth~fishslap kairi
00:40.34ibotACTION slaps kairi up side the head with a wet fish.
00:40.45hardwiretrout!
00:40.50kairibwahaha.
00:40.56kergoth~herring hardwire
00:40.58ibotACTION whacks hardwire on the side of the head with a large red herring named alfred
00:40.58hardwireoh the joys of a good fishing
00:41.03kergothtake that!
00:41.05hardwirelookie meeee.. I am all fishy
00:41.39hardwireman I can't wait for the action!~
00:42.24kairinewp, just Fark ;x
00:43.05Dormi|OFFwhat is the problem to crash the system opie-package?
00:43.17kergothit has a memory leak.
00:43.19kergothsee the mailing list archives
00:43.21Dormi|OFFfree memory?
00:43.42kergotheither use the commandline, or do only a few operations at a time in opie-package before quitting and restarting it
00:47.11kairiearlier, I do believe someone was saying that catting /dev/mem with busybox cat segfaulting after a failed mmap() was a bug ;x
00:47.25kairiwell, certainly, when you mmap() a memory device, that kinda happens ;x
00:48.07kairibut, perhaps there should be some sort of intelligence in cat to not mmap().  then again, I don't find it a very big deal ;x
00:48.47kergothhah
00:48.49kergoththats funny
00:48.51kergothno shit
00:49.05kergothARM doesnt allow unaligned memory access. you'll get a page fault
00:49.26kergothand last i checked, cat didnt read on page boundaries :P
00:49.29kergothsilly users
00:50.44kairiperhaps dd would be a better choice, anyhow
00:51.15kergothwriting an app to mmap() /dev/mem and do the reads aligned properly would be best.
00:54.58kairiany idea where the busybox/uClibc guys hang? ;x
00:56.29kergoth#uclibc :P
00:56.33kergothshocking isnt it?
00:56.36kairi:P
00:56.42kairiI checked #busybox and kinda gave up there
00:57.03kairibut yes, I do suppose #uclibc would be more of a development hotbed ;x
00:57.12kergotherik, the lead developer, is usually around #elinux or #oe as well
00:57.22kergothi recommend idling in #elinux and #uclibc if you want to be aware of such things
00:58.37kairigood plan.

01:41.36Pendalarmeh kstars doesn't like me either
01:41.41PendalarI think it runs out of memory
01:42.10Pendalarit wants to run heh
01:54.28kairiPendalar, I was about to mention that, too :D
01:54.29kairier, :(
01:54.48kairiYou're not using a 64-0, are you?
01:54.55kairiIt definately eats my 32-32 alive
01:55.16Pendalarwell it *was* loading
01:55.24Pendalarnow it says it can't find libstdc++
01:55.29Pendalarwhich is indeed installed and linked
01:56.45Pendalarmanually relinked libstdc++.. weird
01:56.55Pendalarsomething screwy with that lib's install process
01:57.23PendalarI think I've got 48-16 but with a 8mb swap file too
01:57.50Pendalararound "Creating Uranus" it goes to red in the memory applet.. maybe a joke therein?
01:57.51Pendalar;-)
01:58.12Pendalaractually I've gotten to "Loading Information URLs" and no farther
01:58.40Pendalarsad thing is I really wanted this to work, above a lot of other packages
01:58.57Pendalarplenty of memory left
01:59.11Pendalar1mb onboard, 5mb swap..
01:59.31Pendalarmaybe it's just slow as christmas.. been loading for about 10 minutes
01:59.41Pendalarit's still trying because the memory is still slowly dropping
01:59.49PendalarI might leave it on overnight for kicks
01:59.58kairithat's what my money's on
02:00.34Pendalarwe'll see tomorrow I guess =-( g'night all
02:02.20kairigood night!
02:02.33kairiI've to go to work, now ;x
02:02.36kairidamn retail.

02:20.17JrHackerExcuse me, is kergoth present?
02:21.21bayoubengalhowdy
02:21.34JrHackerHi
02:21.37JrHackerI'm looking for kergoth
02:21.47bayoubengaljust walked in. don't know who is where
02:21.49JrHackerMy Z bricked while trying to flash OZ 3.5.2 on it
02:21.52JrHacker:(
02:21.56JrHacker5500
02:22.09bayoubengalbricked?
02:22.16JrHackerwon't turn on anymore
02:22.44JrHackerthe reference, I believe, comes from it being good for nothing but to throw at people
02:22.52bayoubengalouch
02:23.04JrHackeryeah
02:23.17JrHackerOne tends to frustriculate majorly when one's Z bricks
02:23.39bayoubengalwhat did you do to destroy it?
02:23.50JrHackerNothing.
02:23.55JrHackerI've flashed it before
02:24.02JrHackerBut this time...
02:24.45JrHacker*sigh*
02:24.53bayoubengalwhat did you do?
02:25.40JrHackerUsual procedure: dl the files, put 'em on the CF card... rename them to the correct filenames... plug in the AC & flash...
02:25.43bayoubengaldon't feel bad. you are talking to the guy who fried an iMac motherboard because he was too lazy to unplug the computer while trying to bend the radiation shield in it :)
02:25.44JrHackerreset..
02:25.51JrHackerLOL
02:26.00JrHackerI don't feel bad - I didn't do anything wrong! :)
02:26.20bayoubengalfortunately, mine was under warranty
02:26.27JrHackeryeah well
02:26.32JrHackerI called Sharp today...
02:26.45JrHackerand if I pay for shipping, they'll reflash it for me for free
02:26.49bayoubengallol. I image you shot the warranty by flashing it
02:26.57bayoubengaloh well that is nice
02:27.03JrHackerI never had a warranty in the 1st place
02:27.10JrHackerI bought it second hand off eaby
02:27.12JrHacker*ebay
02:27.15bayoubengalshould come with a 90 day warranty
02:27.18bayoubengalah
02:29.50JrHacker...
02:29.53JrHacker:(
02:29.58JrHackerit was weird though
02:30.10JrHackertoday, when I tried (again) to reset & then power it..
02:31.03JrHackerright after I reset it and replaced the compartment cover (but had NOT changed the operating mode to "Normal Operation" - it was still on "Replace Battery")... the Mail LED came on for about 2 seconds, then went out
02:31.46bayoubengalyou sure the battery isn't dead?
02:36.55JrHackeryup
02:36.56JrHackergotta run
