08:39.31sandmanCan you port most things to a zaurus?
08:40.09alan_sandman: depnds "you" means people in general or just me ?
08:40.43sandmanOn a zaurus, could I download the source to mplayer, compile it and install it, and use it?
08:41.23alan_just a bit more difficult than this.
08:41.58sandmanHow tough would it be to make a gentoo chroot (using ARM, of course)
08:42.22alan_OZ is based on Openembedded, which provides a good cross compilation tool called bitbake.
08:43.28alan_bitbakes works with some bb files, which declare where the sources are, what dependencies are required, how to compile for an arm proc, etc, etc...
08:44.11sandmanBut couldn't I still make a gentoo chroot and use it?
08:44.36alan_sandman: that's a good question...
08:45.12alan_i guess you could do this, but i don't know how. i'm still a beginner in all this...
08:45.31alan_sandman: did you search the forum ?
08:48.03alan_but for mplayer, believe me, the best one was compiled by XorA. you'll find it here : http://hyboria.mine.nu/~dp/feed/ (it's for GPE only, btw)
08:48.49alan_(unless he also compiled a nox-nosdl version...)

09:06.36alan|showersandman: take a look at openembedded.org.
09:06.58alan|showeri just made my own GPE image, and i'm really not a linux pro !

15:08.39sandmanI've got a problem.
15:08.50sandmanI can't figure out how to buy any zaurus products
15:08.54sandmanParticularly the SL-6000
15:09.18sandmanSharp must not want their customers to buy their products, because nowhere on their site do they have any links whatsoever about buying the sl6000
15:09.35sandmanAnd their 1800besharp phone line is completely useless. It's not even run by sharp
15:09.40sandmanBut yet they link to it
15:09.52sandmansharpplace.com doesn't even have the pdas on it, only accessories
15:10.04sandmanstore.sharpsystems.com is also useless
15:10.25sandmanAnd the 5 other official sharp sites (wtf? Is Sharp trying to fizzle out?)
15:10.34sandmanAren't completely and totally unhelpful

15:30.56adam-lsdI've got a question regarding USBnet on OpenZaurus 3.5.3:  The usbnet drivers in the 2.6.11 kernel for open zaurus seem to use some kind of new way of identifying themselves.  My macintosh (With the AJZaurus usbnet driver), does not see the device properly.  I know that kernel 2.6 does things on USBnet differently but I'm unsure what.  I'm hacking with the driver source to make a solution, but I need some help to be pointed in the rig
15:32.32*** join/#openzaurus congrio (~congrio@217.217.12.169)
15:33.31adam-lsdSo the question is: What's different in the protocol for usbnet used by OZ 3.5.3 and OZ 3.5.1 (The difference between usbnet in 2.4 and 2.6)

15:42.20synthit will of course, but the last thing it says before the seg fault is the important part
15:42.22synththose are system calls

15:43.24congrioammm ok
15:43.26congriothx.
15:43.28congriowhere can i download the correct version for apache-php for 3.5.3 on my sl6000??
15:43.42synthit looks like it fails on an mmap, trying to allocate some memory space. but that could be normal behavior, like a page fault
15:43.48synthso i cant say how/why that would crash it
15:43.50adam-lsdcongrio: Do you have your httpd compiled for that particular kernel?
15:44.00syntheverything else = 0, so that means success
15:44.12adam-lsdsynth: It sounds, based upon the last file opened, and what it reads, that it's trying to attach a linked library.
15:44.34synthadam-lsd: ahh so it fails mmap'ing that file?
15:44.40adam-lsdsynth: Looks like it.
15:44.43synthgotcha.
15:44.49adam-lsdsynth: See the open, and then the other file calls?
15:44.57synthyeah i didnt notice before. now its clear
15:45.04synthtiny irc window :D
15:45.07synthlots of scroll heh
15:45.07adam-lsdsynth: Then it's mapping, probably from that file handle (Would need to trace addresses, but that's what it sounds like.)
15:45.11adam-lsdHeh.
15:45.24congrioadam-lsd, i dont know, always use the same ipk but now dont work
15:45.30adam-lsdAnyhow, it sounds like his httpd is compiled for a different set of libs than his kernel.
15:45.48congrioi have a clean install of 3.5.3
15:45.53adam-lsdcongrio: on 3.5.1 and 3.5.2 did it work?
15:46.04adam-lsdcongrio: Because it sounds like it's compiled against the wrong ld-linux.2.so
15:46.08congriommm only have 3.5.3
15:46.20congriowhere can then download the corerct?
15:46.40adam-lsdcongrio: Which makes a slight amount of sense since 3.5.3 on most devices is going to 2.6 (Which is why I came into this channel in the first place...)
15:46.43adam-lsdcongrio: I wouldn't know.
15:47.11congriothis is my kernel: 2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix
15:47.23adam-lsdcongrio: Hm.
15:47.32congrioand alwais use this apache: http://www.choup.net/spip/accueil.php3?id_rubrique=12
15:47.41congriobut today, none of this works
15:47.42congrio:(
15:48.09adam-lsdcongrio: Has it worked on this OZ version in the past?
15:48.28congrioyes
15:48.37congriobut i need to reflash my z
15:48.40adam-lsdcongrio: My french is rusty...  Which link on the page is right for OZ?
15:48.47congrionow, all others soft works, but apache no
15:48.56adam-lsdcongrio: Hm.
15:54.03adam-lsdcongrio: You might try compiling the software you're after, on the Z, using some kind of network store to keep data on.
16:00.09congrioadam-lsd, this is very complicated to my... i think...
16:01.14adam-lsdcongrio: Have you compiled software packages on linux before?
16:01.20congrioyes
16:06.29adam-lsdcongrio: So I would suggest compiling this package.  However, instead of cross compiling it, compile it natively on the Zaurus.  If you need extra storage space, use some form of network storage (NFS, Samba, etc.).

20:39.59cosmo-how stable and mature GPE is compared to OPIE?
21:23.00alancosmo-: GPE isn't as stable for now. Well, you won't notice any difference for basic use (pim, etc...) but GPE is changing so fast ! Virtualy, any prog availiable on your PC could be ported to OZ GPE.
21:23.25benplautwell... available on you _linux_ PC :)

21:29.09benplautdidn't know
21:29.35benplautthat might not work becuase of problems with a different processor architechture (sp?)
21:31.54cosmo-gpe feels quite good.. it has crashed only once so far

21:49.30cosmo-i'd be happy if i got stable system with network and sync
22:01.32cosmo-looks like gpe crashed :(
22:02.13cosmo-maybe i should start using palm again and use zaurus as a expensive mp3-player
22:02.34JustinPZaurii work great. Depends on your model, though, some have older kernels.
22:02.42JustinPcosmo-: what model and kernel?
22:03.20cosmo-5500 and 2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix-3.5.3
22:04.15cosmo-maybe i have a faulty unit or something, but both opie and gpe seem to crash often
22:05.30JustinPwell...the embeddix kernels always have problems
22:05.41JustinP(Sharp's fault)
22:06.05cosmo-can i get a better kernel somehow?
22:06.35cosmo-i've been using the files from openzaurus.org
22:06.50JustinPthe 2.6 kernel may not be ready for 5500 yet
22:07.07JustinPactually my 5500 worked pretty well with both Opie and GPE
22:07.13JustinP(before I fried it)
22:07.32JustinPmy C3000 crashes often on resume but it's newly supported, so...
22:11.32cosmo-sharp rom worked quite well, but there's no multisync plugin for it
22:13.20JustinPsharp rom is also much more limited and screwed up
22:15.46cosmo-it's quite strange that opie & gpe both fill all of the internal memory initially
22:16.33cosmo-and i haven't found a way to install to cf in gpe
22:16.56JustinPcosmo-: get an SD card, format it ext2, and move root to the SD card
22:17.16JustinPI used a 256MB one
22:18.21cosmo-that might be a good idea
22:18.24jdimswhats the easiest way to move root
22:18.31JustinPuse rboot
22:19.04cosmo-i have a 128mb cf card now.. but i'll buy a wlan cf card so i must use SD for storage
22:20.03JustinPand CF gets ejected and reinserted on suspend so you can't move root to it
22:20.12cosmo-how sharp has managed to put opera and hancom office on their rom? both opie & gpe have only very basic apps
22:20.30JustinPboth together take lots of space for base stuff
22:20.47JustinPwhich is why I said to use SD for root
22:20.51JustinPI wrote the "howto"
22:22.59jdimswhere is it JustinP?
22:29.02VladDracgpe looks nice, feels better than opie
22:31.04cosmo-i think after all the sharp rom is best for unexpanded 5500.. you get web browser, ssh, and networking with it
22:31.34cosmo-gpe crashed again :(
22:34.44subduegpe = less apps, but stabler than opie
22:34.52subdueopie = prettier, but easy to crash
22:35.06subduesharp = conservative, inflexible, but stable
22:35.18subduetkc = same as sharp but without the sharp things
22:35.24subdueimo
22:37.47cosmo-open source coders have made a lot of hard work on gpe & opie, but i'm still disappointed about the situation
22:38.31cosmo-i paid 185¤ for my zaurus so it's not a very big loss
22:38.33VladDracunfortunately, these packagemanagers *always* fail on me
22:39.39cosmo-i'm working at Nokia, hopefully i might get a 770 prototype for testing some day
22:54.04benplaut185 isn;t a big loss?!
