04:45.18drpHey, does anyone know if OZ can run on a SL3100 ? I tried the ROM for the 3000 but it didnt work. Forums say there's a way to use the ROM for the 1000, but I couldnt see anyone say they had confirmed success. I have a 3100 here with Sharp ROM, it's only useful as a doorstop or paperweight until I find some OpenSource ROM for it ;)
04:54.02subdueif you think that, then you haven't done much homework
04:54.12subduesee meanie's page
05:02.59drpOK I will check. where's meanie's page ? I will try google for "zaurus" and "meanie"
05:04.29dgramdrp... me=jrj :)
05:08.36drpget back to work ya slacker :)
05:09.12drphttp://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=13937 says theres nothing for the 3100. :) Looks like more homework is needed
05:11.40dgramif you find something let me knwo and i'll post it on glugers.org
05:11.55drpI will post it !
05:11.56drp:)
05:12.01drpMy account is still virgin
05:12.17dgramlol, i'll make u a content moderator/admin
05:12.21drpapparently theres a patch to use 1000 rom on 3100. looking into it now.
05:12.32dgramany chance u making it to the LUG this saturday?
05:14.26dgramdrp: btw, dcsrhat in #redhat is the "D" man from redhat who we briefly met in the last training
05:17.42drpMeanie's page only has info on the 3000. not on the 3100 http://users.on.net/~hluc/myzaurus
05:17.54drpD ! The god!
05:17.54drpomg
05:17.55drp;)
05:18.05drpDOnt know about LUG yet
05:18.22drpwe have flu epidemic in ADL, and i am needed desperately at da klub
05:18.31drpthis saturday we had 3 contractors. all useless.
05:20.11drpanarchy was rampant ;)
05:20.21drpmy shoulder and knuckles were sore ;)
05:27.36dgramhaha
05:32.41drpand the review work... made other stuff sore.
05:32.56drpanyway. we are OT :) lets take this to msn
05:36.09jncdrp: i wish i had a 31000
05:36.12jncs/00/0/
05:37.04drpjnc: But why ? No ROM works on it
05:37.27jncit's black
05:37.29dgrami wish the Z's had build in wifi, bluetooth and gprs
05:37.30jnceverything black is cool
05:37.33drpYeah ;)
05:37.41drpYeah the lack of built in connectivity is stupid
05:37.42jncdgram: GPRS would not make sense
05:37.42dgrama flavour of the SL-6000 had them
05:37.44jncjapan is FOMA
05:37.47drpI like www.flybook.biz
05:37.51drpAnd I like nokia 9500
05:38.07jncyou could always cut the case and make it have 2 external CF slots
05:38.08dgramjnc: i obviously live under a rock :)
05:38.09drpjnc: In Australia, GPRS makes a lot of sense
05:38.29drpYeah fair enough
05:38.36drpJapan uses EVDO and stuff
05:38.43jncall in all, i have a c3000 (spitz) and it is a rather limited device
05:38.43dgrami have the SL-5600, love it.. gotta swap CF for wifi/gprs all the time tho :/
05:38.50drpdgram found a GPRS card that works on the 3000
05:39.02jncit would be tough to use even if the OS and programs did not crash all the damn time
05:39.04drpoh you have the 5600.  i thought you have a 3000
05:39.07jnci love having it though
05:39.20drpI think I will ebay my 3100 and just get the flybook
05:39.23dgramthe RTM-8000 is great for gprs
05:39.31jncoh
05:39.32drpand try to put ubuntu or fedora on it
05:39.33dgramwill linux go on the flybook drp?
05:39.40jncdrp: if you want, i might be interested in a 3100
05:39.45dgramkewl, be the first :)
05:39.55drpdgram: no idea. I am going to resell flybooks as soon as they launch in Australia. ETA is 4 weeks
05:40.18drpThen i will make a linux on flybook how-to on glugers.org
05:40.19dgramdrp: if you want someone to R&D features and stuff, send one up ;-)
05:40.26dgramswoit
05:40.33drpLOL. that would make no commercial sense
05:40.43drpthey gave me a wholesale price thats 5% below RRP
05:40.44dgramhaha... worth a try tho :P
05:40.50drpalmost like reselling Macintosh.
05:40.55dgramlol
05:40.57jncheh
05:41.01drpMacintosh reselling is bullshit
05:41.08dgramhahaha
05:41.17drpyou have to promise huge turnover, and tell them your business plan and org chart. and then all you get is around 5%
05:41.23dgramits all about reselling software hey...
05:42.03dgramonce VT and Pacifica come out for x86 intel and AMD (respectively) then no need to get a powerpc
05:42.08jnci'm sad that bluetooth is not integrated into the c3000
05:42.09dgrammac are going intel anyways :)
05:42.21jncit's soooo tiny
05:42.31jncand uses small amounts of power
05:42.37jnci don't see why you would leave out bluetooth
05:42.48dgramwe use linux... make a bluetooth thingy our of some paddlepop sticks and a rubber band
05:43.00dgramall is possible
05:43.07jnci have a bluetooth usb adapter and goldx host cable
05:43.11jncit's not very convenient
05:43.24jncmy GPS receiver is the Holux GPSlim236
05:43.29jncit is bluetooth
05:43.51dgrami havnt tried gps on my Z yet
05:44.05dgramgot other geeky projects to chop up before i get to that
05:44.13dgramxen :)

07:44.44dgrami can touch it up a bit with some useful links
07:44.50dgramlike to serial_cs.o and stuff
07:45.10XorAis serial_cs not supplied in feed?
07:45.32dgramnot sure, i installed it manually
07:45.51XorAdgram: but its the best howto for an RTM8000 card ive seen for linux

07:47.52XorAdgram: erm, not sure I can swim 10000 miles in a week
07:48.21dgramhehe
07:48.43XorAdgram: maybe you should put HOWTO on oz.org, but just as a link to your site, that way the howto will keep upto date if you change it.
07:49.18dgramsounds good... can you modify content on oz.org?
07:49.45XorAdgram: if you have a login, its just a wiki
07:50.42dgramahh

07:51.07dgramlol

14:04.39yipstarhey OZ gods, I'm taking a stab at setting up my bluetooth card again
14:05.10yipstarwhen I insert the card logread tells me: serial_cs unknown symbol serial8250_unregister_port
14:05.16yipstarand similar entries
14:05.52yipstarI am effectively trying to load the kernel module serial_cs, anyone have any pointers on how I can proceed to get this card working?
14:09.13jnc_JustinP: hey man, let me know how it's gone with the GPE image :)
14:09.59XorAyipstar: 5600?
14:12.13yipstarXorA: actually a c860 husky
14:12.41XorAyipstar: oz 3.5.3?
14:12.44yipstaryes
14:13.11XorAyipstar: opie or gpe?
14:13.18yipstaropie
14:14.31theeferhi again.  Is the freshly released kernel update officially broken? all the comments seem to indicate so, and I still haven't read of any fix..
14:16.16hrw|gonetheefer: it depends - for some people it work (including me), for others dont
14:19.01florolfthe package manager (opie) segfaults when i try to install gnuplot for example
14:22.54yipstarXorA: I've also found on some forums mention of using bluez-csr-serial_0.1_arm.ipk, but I'm not sure that's for OZ, I think it might be for Cacko.
14:23.04theefermh, ok.
14:23.17theeferI downgraded mine to 3.5.2 for now..
14:23.35XorAyipstar: I dont have a BT card

14:24.34XorAyipstar: no probs, sorry I cant help any further
14:25.05XorAyipstar: have you tried ipkg install kernel-module-8250 just incase it ended up not in image by accident
14:25.27yipstarno I haven't but I'll give it a shot, thanks for the idea
14:25.29hrw|goneyipstar: which exact kernel you have?
14:25.57yipstarhrw|gone: how do I find that out, uname?
14:26.11hrwyipstar: you use oz 3.5.3 kernel or upgraded one?
14:26.25yipstaruname -a gives me: Linux c7x0 2.6.11 Tue Ap[r 12
14:26.41yipstarhrw: oz 3.5.3
14:27.46hrwyipstar: http://www.rpsys.net/openzaurus/packages/ - upgrade kernel and modules from here
14:30.11yipstarhrw: so I install kernel_2.6.11-r20_c7x0.ipk and kernel-module-serial-cs_2.6.11-r20_c7x0.ipk ?
14:30.43yipstarand perhaps this: kernel-module-8250_2.6.11-r20_c7x0.ipk ?
14:31.48hrwyoou need to reflash kernel also
14:33.08yipstarhrw: ok so I reflash the kernel with just the zImage file, and then install those ipk's?
14:33.46hrwyep
14:34.11yipstarok, here we go, and thank you for your help :)

14:42.49StarScreamhrw: what happened to that kernel you gave me to try. That one worked (the r21 in upgrades didn't). The only thing that failed was opie but the bootstrap worked.
14:43.05hrwStarScream: it was also r21
14:43.48florolfI switched on the wrong terminal with the opie-vt-switcher
14:43.48StarScreamhrw: ah...so it was the image that caused the boot trouble ?

14:55.12yipstarXorA: I don't see an ipk for that at http://www.rpsys.net/openzaurus/packages/
14:56.52XorAyipstar: hrmm, no idea then
14:57.53yipstarXorA: thanks anyway. I'm used to the feeling of defeat at this point. maybe I should go into acting, I'm developing quite a thick skin for rejection ;)
14:59.44XorAyipstar: what I have on my Z no longer resembles 3.5.3 in any form :-(
15:00.29yipstarXorA: ah the joy of hacking :)
15:00.41yipstarmaybe one day I'll actually become one
15:00.48XorAyipstar: and test kernel versions :-)

15:09.09yipstarI'm trying just my bluetooth stuff, without worrying about the kernel panic from the wifi card, let's just see if I can get the bluetooth stuff working.
15:10.46yipstarhrw: do i need to install the kernel_2.6.11-r20 ipk?
15:11.04yipstarafter I just flashed to the new kernel
15:11.14hrwinstall - then you will know which rev ou have
15:11.38yipstark
15:12.08yipstarbut I don't need kernel-iamge-2.6.11... right?
15:12.24hrwyep
15:22.05yipstarok
15:22.10yipstarI think we have progress
15:22.27yipstarnow the module is loaded, yay! :)
15:23.12yipstaras lsmod reports, however logread tells me after trying bluetooth start: setserial: not found.
15:23.51yipstaris there a ipk I need to install to get the setserial command?
15:25.33hrwipkg install setserial
15:26.04yipstarhrw: ok, but I have now internet access anymore so I'll download it to my cf card.
15:26.23yipstarI meant *no net access, cause my wifi is not working.
15:31.38yipstarhrw: I can't seem to find an ipk for that on openzaurus.org/official/unstable/3.5.3/feed
15:32.01hrwbut it exist there
15:32.44yipstarscratch that I found it, sorry bout that, I did a google domain search for setserial and it did not come up. got it now.
15:35.55yipstardarn it gotta reboot to get my cf reader to work, brb.

16:06.01yipstarbut setserial is found now
16:06.19hrwdont know - my bt card is not serial one
16:06.55yipstarI thought this one would be supported, I read the list on oesf.org, but I think that list should reference which roms it refers to
16:07.04yipstarthis is my second BT purchase :(
16:07.19yipstarThe Socket Rev F card is the way to go right?
16:07.51yipstarhrw: you wouldn't mind telling me where you purchased yours from would you?
16:08.33hrwI got mine from lardman which got it on ebay
16:08.37hrwits socket rev E
16:08.55hrwOZ is not a rom
16:09.17yipstarno? please do educate me out of my ignorance
16:09.59hrwgive me definition or word "ROM"
16:10.30yipstarI thought it meant the bootstrapped software that's installed on the ROM of the device
16:10.44hrwwhat is a rom?
16:10.49yipstarthere seem to be a few, the original sharp ROM, the OZ ROM, the Cacko ROM... etc
16:10.56yipstarit's a type of memory right?
16:11.15hrwRead Only Memory
16:12.08yipstarso I should call them distributions (OZ, Cacko, Debian, etc...)?
16:12.48hrwyes
16:13.09yipstarok, thank you for the lesson, I wonder why there are referred to as ROM's though
16:13.35hrwand in OZ the problem is that we have all machines covered (except a300 and 3100) in few kernels
16:14.19hrw2.4.18/collie, 2.4.18(tosa, poodle), 2.4.20(akita, spitz), 2.6.x(c7x0) + experimental 2.6.x(collie, poodle, tosa, spitz)
16:14.47hrw3.5.4 will not support 2.4 kernel on c7x0, maybe we will drop poodle support
16:15.38yipstarah, I see, sounds like you have your hands full.
16:16.38hrwand on c7x0 we have 2.6.11 as stable one and 2.6.13-rc3-mm1 as unstable
16:17.06hrw3.5.4/c7x0 will have 2.6.11 or 2.6.12-mm1 but that is not known yet
16:18.00yipstaris there a mailing list or some other form other than this channel to stay up to date or help out if I can?
16:19.41hrwmailing list: openzaurus-devel@lists.sourceforge.net (zaurus things) and oe@handhelds.org (openembedded one)
16:20.30yipstarhrw: thank you for all the info, and for all your hard work
16:20.35hrwnp
16:22.01yipstarhrw: do you think my serial BT card will ever work (or be supported) or should I look into buying a socket rev e card?
16:22.14hrwavoid revE card
16:23.14yipstaris there one that will work out of the book with 3.5.3 and > going further, I've been dying to get a bluetooth card to work for net access from my phone, which will make it more feasible for me to carry my zaurus around
16:23.18yipstar?
16:27.16hrwre
16:27.43hrwyipstar: which module that card used under 2.4?
16:28.01yipstarhrw: I never had it working under 2.4, sorry
16:28.26hrwit is listed in oesf bt howto?
16:28.35yipstarhrw: I also have an AmbiCom BT2000D-CF but that one doesn't seem to be supported either
16:28.44yipstarhrw: yes it's the Blue Monkey Card
16:28.51yipstarbut apparently it's a newer one
16:29.32yipstarhrw: this page has pictures of both versions of Blue Monkey Card, mine is the newer one: http://www.shirtpocket.co.uk/spforum/index.php?showtopic=3
16:30.08yipstarwell that links seems to not show them anymore :(
16:30.52hrwhttp://oesf.org/index.php?title=Bluetooth_Card_Support
16:31.44yipstaryes, that link is why I bought the Blue Monkey card
16:31.57yipstarbut mine doesn't come up as LSE039
16:32.03yipstarit comes up as BT0100M
16:33.23yipstarso is the Socket Rev G/H a good idea?
16:34.17hrwany hci_uart one probably
16:35.53yipstarhrw: on that page you just sent me, under the Dlink entry there seems to be a note that seems applicable to my card.
16:36.06yipstarmaybe my card is a uart?
16:37.32hrwtry: btaurt-cs then
16:37.44hrwkernel-module-btuart-cs
16:38.13yipstark, and then edit /etc/pcmcia/bluetooth.conf to bind to that module right?
16:39.03yipstarhrw: and should I reflash to the original 3.5.3 kernel? and please tell me if I'm bothering you,  I do not mean to overstay my welcome
16:40.03hrwkeep r20 kernel
16:40.26yipstark

16:48.56meshugai installed it onto opie and its giving me weird errors, but it the 5xx0 release
16:49.19alanmeshuga: you need the c serie patch.
16:49.50JustinPjnc_: I got a GPE image built but you can't have it!

17:09.57ExisJustin:  the trouble I'm having is getting it to recognize my wireless card at all.
17:10.09ExisIt loads the kernel module correctly, but no network interface appears
17:10.19alanExis: sorry, i don't have wifi on my Z... but i guess you should use "iwconfig wlan0 key xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx essid xxx-xxx ; ifconfig wlan0 up" or something like this...
17:10.36meshugaExis: have you read the output of 'dmesg' or syslogd under 'system information'?
17:10.45meshugai noticed that OZ outputs tons more then my usual linux boxes
17:10.46_StarScreamhello
17:10.55meshugatypically says the exact error in the syslogd/boot messages
17:10.58hrwExis: poodle does not get too much love in OZ...
17:11.13Exismeshuga:  No, I didn't know where to look for error logs.  I'll check that out.
17:11.26JustinPmeshuga: this is because it's still in development and we want as much info as possible. ;-) Also, the Sharp/Embeddix stuff outputs more than it should.
17:11.35_StarScreamhrw: how many versions of the collie exist?
17:11.48hrwStarScream: hardware? 2-4
17:12.02hrwStarScream: 5000/5500 and US/DE keyboard

17:12.14_StarScreamyeh i meant heardware. which one do you have?
17:12.22hrwStarScream: 5500US
17:12.40hrwStarScream: but it is in cradle as I use husky (c760)
17:12.40ExisI'm using a linksys.
17:12.41_StarScreamhrw: hmm well i thought mine was US too...how can i tell?
17:12.57hrwStarScream: you have 2 shift keys?
17:13.18hrwStarScream: DE has Shift on left and AltGr on right side
17:13.26hrwStarScream: and ZY reversed
17:13.32_StarScreamhrw: yeh i have 2 shift keys
17:13.33JustinPExis: AFAIK the linksys WCF12 should work fine. It used to at least. Unless you have some new hardware revision (damn Linksys and others for changing hardware unexpecedly).
17:14.01JustinPExis: There are some notes on the forum about adding lines to certain files to get a Linksys to work I think...
17:14.11_StarScreamhrw: just trying to work out why yours works but mine doesn't.
17:14.37hrwlinksys wcf12 should work out-of-box under OZ (atleast it does on collie and husky)
17:15.10_StarScreamhrw: in terms of the r21 image etc..
17:15.18hrwStarScream: understood
17:15.57hrwyipstar: rebuilded r20 kernel - now will build hostap

17:21.22JustinPwhat's the difference between Alt and AltGr?
17:22.36_StarScreamso what is the best zaurii to get then ? in terms of OZ support
17:22.53meshugai am using a wcf12.
17:22.58meshugaworks great.
17:23.10meshuga_StarScream : i think the c8xx or c7xx
17:23.34meshugaand i have a c1000
17:23.35_StarScreamhmm and everything on those works fully?
17:23.46meshugai think so, but i'm not the person to ask, i've never owned one of them
17:23.48JustinPThe 5500 has been around for ages and works great (at least always did for me). However, it's not the best machine. Pretty slow and such. I love my C3000 but it's not 100% yet, lots of little problems.
17:23.53meshugajust a 5500 and a c1000.
17:24.12JustinPThe c7/8xx have also been around for a while and people seem to like them a lot.
17:24.27alanXorA has a 860 iirc, and each time i ask for something that won't work on 750 works on his zaurus...
17:25.03alanbut i admitt this may come from me... ^^'
17:25.07_StarScreamJustinP: i have a 5500 already
17:25.27_StarScreambut hrw is pretty much the only one working on stuff for it afaik

17:27.22hrw5500 is most popular but wont get 2.6  kernel working rather, poodle (5600) is most unsupported device
17:27.31JustinP_StarScream: my WCF12 worked with the Sharp Rom....
17:28.05JustinPC3000/3100/1000 will have a 2.6 kernel before too long hopefully.
17:28.24JustinPand many are hoping that will fix many of the problems
17:28.29_StarScreamJustinP: do you have a link for that card.
17:28.50JustinP_StarScream: a link? what do you mean?
17:28.55hrwJustinP: under 2.6 there will probably be one kernel for c1000/c3000/c3100 like it is done for c7x0
17:28.57_StarScreamhrw: is it lack of docs and help from sharp that causes the issue with 2.6
17:29.14hrwStarScream: lack of doc

17:32.55JustinP_StarScream: plus the fact that they have lineo do the kernel and those kernels are the source of much of the grief on the Zaurii. They're fragile and not written well at all.
17:33.16alanhrw: and 21 on /home :)
17:33.17JustinP(or at least this is what I hear. I'm not a kernel dev myself)

17:33.55hrw2.4.xx zaurus kernels suxx

17:34.57hrwJustinP: feel free to improve it ;)
17:35.21hrwbut that non-OZ parts was rewritten, cleared etc so...
17:35.54JustinPhrw: it's one of those things which is on my todo list...I have a lot I'm "working on" right now, though. ;-) First of all I want to fix bugs and make my Z more usable. Hence the addition of lineakd, support for CE-RH2, mpd, etc. I us emy Z to play music quite a bit. :-)

22:04.36EnceloAMDhi
22:04.51EnceloAMDhow can I use libsdl extra libraries on GPE?
22:36.15kolla_hehe, nice zaurus thread on slashdot
22:36.15EnceloAMDwhich is the package containing C standard includes?
22:38.22JustinPI was asking that just the other day...and many days before that...
22:38.27JustinPlibc6-dev I think
22:42.12EnceloAMDit sounds like you're right :)
22:44.30JustinPhowever it may be missing other things...I tried to run a configure script and it bailed on me because syslimits.h is missing. I haven't figured out yet how to get that. I don't think it's in any packages.
22:53.20EnceloAMDI will try
22:53.45EnceloAMDit's downloading glibc-extra-nss_2.3.2+cvs20040726-r15_arm.ipk...
