00:08.31Chetcan someone please point me at something that can help me understand how to edit my opie keymap? :)
00:09.18Chetmy searching has been fruitless
00:09.51Chetsomeone pointed me to an applet that lets me switch keymaps, but I still don't know how to write them

00:33.08karbakHello, is there a list of known CF cards which cause trouble while flashing ROMs ?
00:33.30karbakI simply cannot get my 5500 to flash with a Lexar 128Mb card.
00:36.08ChetYou checked filenames, VFAT, etc
00:36.23karbakChet: Yes, filenames, md5sums everything.
00:36.35karbakThe card was initially formatted FAT32, I changed that to FAT16 as well.
00:36.50karbakWhen I do C+D+reset, the power light simply goes out and nothing happens.
00:37.07karbakExcept that I lose all data, and boot back in to the default ROM of course.
00:37.14ChetHave you ever seen the maint menu?
00:37.36karbakChet: No ... on a 5500 ?
00:37.36Chet(I only have a 6000, so your may be different)
00:37.47karbakNo .. don't think this has one.
00:37.51Chetok
00:37.54Chetsec
00:38.44ChetAre you holding C+D down first, then hitting reset?
00:38.52karbakYes.
00:38.54Chetthat's what I had to do on my 6000 (well, diff keys)
00:39.07karbakC+D - then reset with the stylus tip.
00:39.29ChetHmm.. you'll probably have o wait for someone who knows that model
00:39.40karbakRight - thanks for trying anyway.

03:48.58Zero_ChaosCan anyone tell me, if opie-wirelessapplet going to be added to the 3.5.3 feed? I cannot seem to find it.
03:52.22CoreDump|afkZero_Chaos: that's a good thing...The darn applet was the reason No.1 for suspend/resume problems and nobody cared to look into it. So it was removed from the builds.
03:53.05Zero_Chaosthat sucks, I never had any problems :-) I loved that applet....
03:53.12Zero_Chaosoh well.
03:53.55CoreDump|afkZero_Chaos: hold on, I'll build it for you. No guarantes that it'll work though
03:53.58tanqis there a trick to the package manager still?
03:55.08CoreDump|afkhttp://hentges.net/tmp/opie-wirelessapplet_1.2.0-r0_arm.ipk
03:55.47Piranha-wpa isnt in openzaurus yet is it
03:56.04CoreDump|afkit is, look for wpa-supplicant.
03:57.35Zero_ChaosCoreDump|afk: any idea if it's safe? or at least no worse than the last applet?
03:58.29CoreDump|afkZero_Chaos: it's based on a snpashot from 2 days ago. I've no idea wether i'll work at all since some things have changed since the release of 3.5.3
03:58.49CoreDump|afkit's worth a try in any case
03:59.16Zero_ChaosLoL.  Is there any current intent on working on that applet in the near future? or should I test my luck and try the snapshot?
03:59.36Zero_ChaosHAPPY EARTH DAY
04:00.17CoreDump|afknoone has looked into it for almost a year AFAIK
04:01.10Zero_ChaosLoL, I admit, it doesn't really do much, but it is just so comforting to see in the tray.  Thanks for the download CoreDump.
04:01.23CoreDump|afkyou're welcome :)
04:03.38tanqthat was weird.. i just got the GPE screen and then the startup messages started overwriting it..
04:04.19CoreDump|afkheh that's normal. The splashscreen is just a hack "hiding" the fb
04:04.25Zero_Chaostanq: not a bug, that is the kernel messages overwrite feature in GPE
04:04.59tanqi'd rather the fb be up and then see the splash
04:04.59Zero_ChaosAlright, time for bed, thanks again CoreDump
04:05.09CoreDump|afknp, n8 Zero_Chaos
04:05.28tanqman this package manager is starting to annoy me.. it comes up ueber slow... i know this isnt normal behavior for it.
04:05.47CoreDump|afkthe GPE GUI package manager is broken IIRC
04:08.01tanqwe'll see.. i'm trying to install nano. which is simple enough..
04:09.30tanqCoreDump|afk: do you use opie or gpe
04:09.38CoreDump|afkopie
04:09.55CoreDump|afkyou may have more luck with the commandline ipkg :) Sorry, got to go

12:11.43hrw|workdefine not work
12:15.21dballesterhrw|work: well, i can get no references in any way to the mic, i can't know if it's activated, deactivated... no way to try nothing
12:16.06dballesterhrw|work: I can't know if the problem is Oz based or gpe based, but in anyway, no tools to make test with device
12:16.37dballesteri'm thinking in something like alsamixer, under command line
12:17.04dballesteror at least some report tool, something under proc... well i'm not a guru
12:17.11hrw|workdballester: opie-record try
12:17.18hrw|workI never used mic with zaurus
12:17.56dballesterit's possible to know something about sound device under kernel ( modinfo ? )

14:18.49tanqman i can't get one freakin mediaplayer to work on the sl5600 in 3.5.3 or 3.5.2
14:19.54lardman|lunchtanq: GPE or Opie?
14:20.19hrw|workI just tested how rammstein sounds on headphones using c760/oz353
14:21.02XorAhrw|work: thats gotta sound nasty ;-)
14:21.14hrw|workXorA: rammstein of c760?
14:21.30XorAhrw|work: both in combo :-)
14:21.33hrw|work;))
14:21.46XorAI found mp3 Rammstein doesnt work well due to white noise
14:21.52tanqlardman: Opie and GPE
14:22.11tanqactually just opie..
14:22.19hrw|worktanq: opie-mediaplayer2, xmms-embedded, opie-mediaplayer1 should all work
14:22.27tanqi didnt try gpe because of laziness and the package manager was not working..
14:22.44tanqopie mp2 just shows the skin and stops..
14:23.04tanqi thought it might have been the mp3 so i tried a bunch more and nothing..
14:23.23tanqhrw|work: and are you speaking for collie or poodle
14:23.41hrw|worktanq: collie with 3.5.2
14:23.46tanqi'm using poodle
14:24.07hrw|workon c7x0 I use opie-mediaplayer2 (with 1 mp3 song to test)
14:24.26tanqin xmms when i press the play button nothing happens
14:24.53tanqi had the same problem in 3.5.2 possible 3.5.1
14:24.54hrw|workhm.. why bt is so slow?
14:27.24lardmantanq: I'm running GPE (GXine works well), but it looks like I'll be flashing over to Opie (for the kernel) this weekend
14:28.00tanqI couldnt get the package manager to work in GPE... is it broken?
14:28.31lardmanCan one set the memory buffer amount in the ~/.xine/config file?
14:28.47lardmantanq: I think so, I only ever use command line anyway
14:36.48lardmantanq: does omp2 fail silently if you don't have libmad available?

14:43.11tanqi have no idea..
14:43.44tanqi thought the package manager downloaded the dependencies..
14:43.59tanqi have libmad installed though..
14:46.57lardmanhave you tried running the various apps frmo the command line to see if they'll tell you what's wrong?
14:50.41tanqwell first it can't find libmikmod.so. i'm not sure that is a show stopper.. but when the gui starts up it gets to Settin g BOundary and right after that it says Szam vege,gyuhet a kov.\ xmms gui destroying \ crash!
14:51.29lardmannice, understandable error messages ;)
14:53.16tanqindeed
14:53.24tanqthat was for xmms
14:53.27lardmannot sure that libmikmod would make any difference as it plays weird file types
14:53.32tanqlet me see what opie says
14:56.01hrw|workweird? amiga modules are not weird
14:56.35lardman;)
14:56.41tanqok i got opie working via cmd line..
14:56.54tanqbut the volume is really low even with it turned all the way up
14:58.32lardmantanq: what about the opie-volume-applet volume setting?
14:58.46lardmantanq: or do they control the same thing?
14:59.14tanqcontrol the same thing
14:59.19lardmanoh
14:59.23lardmanah
14:59.40lardmanI thought that there was a sound problem with the latest release
14:59.48lardmanthere was a fix in the upgrades feed
15:00.03lardmanhrw|work: that sound right, or was it just for the c7x0 machines?
15:00.22tanqwhat would i need to grab from the upgrade feed
15:00.23tanqs
15:01.14hrw|worklardman: libqte2 is not yet in upgrades (atleast not from me)
15:01.58lardmanhrw|work: Oh right, will it be?
15:02.06lardmanhrw|work: when you have time ;)
15:02.38tanqweird.. the sound is really loud now
15:02.47tanqi think i had to restart opie to make it louder
15:02.52tanqer opieplayer
15:03.34hrw|worklardman: have to add it into todo - was busy
15:03.43lardmanhrw|work: cool
15:05.08tanqyeah.  I have to restart opieplayer when changing the volume
