06:50.10_law_has someone tried to open the usb cable (sl-760)
07:28.52RalafeHow does one repartition the microdrive on the 3100?
07:40.12RalafeI figured it out. Anyone have a link to the 2.6 Borzoi test image?
07:56.28*** join/#openzaurus kolla (i=kolla@firda.uninett.no)
07:57.49_law_Ralafe, you search http://ewi546.ewi.utwente.nl/mirror/www.openzaurus.org/official/unstable/3.5.4-RC/ ?
07:58.51RalafeI don't know whether or not 3.5.4-RC uses a 2.6 kernel. There's a link to the 2.6 Borzoi image on the OZ site, but the link is broken.
08:01.36*** join/#openzaurus obergix[home] (n=olivier@mag77-1-82-238-13-91.fbx.proxad.net)
08:01.39_law_Ralafe, here is another (newer) build http://ewi546.ewi.utwente.nl/tmp/OZ/ but i dont know if it uses 2.6 for borzoi (its an testing release, be careful :-))
08:02.00_law_does anyone use usbnetwork ?
08:02.33_law_i think my usb-cable is damaged :-(
08:03.03RalafeI use network over usb.
08:03.55*** join/#openzaurus JiniDog (n=jini@p54BFEBA6.dip.t-dialin.net)
08:07.12_law_Ralafe, linux or windows?
08:08.33_law_Ralafe, is some kernel module needed on my Z do get it work?
08:08.43_law_is use linux on my desktop
08:12.08*** join/#openzaurus Timelord0 (n=TL@4.78.4.43)
08:21.09RalafeMake sure it's enabled in your desktop kernel, either as a module or compiled in.
08:32.20_law_Ralafe, but if i only connect my Z (with either module loaded) lsusb should show a device or?
08:34.46JiniDogyes
08:35.00_law_but i dont see anything :-(
08:35.14_law_so my usb cabel is damaged or?
08:35.22JiniDogas long as you have the correct moduls in the kernel
08:35.46_law_JiniDog, Zaurus-side or PC-side?
08:35.47JiniDogchecked that? http://openzaurus.org/wordpress/howto/usb-networking/
08:35.53JiniDogboth
08:36.17_law_JiniDog, which modules are required on Z ?
08:37.41JiniDogusbdcore and perhaps usbdmonitor
08:41.29_law_JiniDog, usbcore is here but now usbdcore (i have got an sl760)
08:46.31*** join/#openzaurus ggg (n=ggg@212.20.245.206)
08:50.03JiniDogshould be the same, you are using a 2.6 kernel, that is a difference
08:51.51_law_JiniDog, but i dont get any dmeg output or something in lsusb
08:52.03_law_so i should be my usb-cable or?
08:52.42JiniDogI would rather guess that you don't have set up your PCs kernel right
08:52.50JiniDogwhat kernel version?
08:52.57JiniDogand did you follow the guide above?
08:53.12JiniDogdoes you're USB  port work with a USB stick?
08:53.34_law_JiniDog, yes i also tested it on an windows notebook
08:54.11JiniDogwell, you can boot into windows and see whether it "detectes new hardware"
08:54.22JiniDogif it does, you have no hardware problem
08:54.32JiniDogif it doesn't, well something is wrong then
08:54.46_law_JiniDog, it doesnt
08:55.19JiniDogyou should check your zaurus with another PC
08:56.37XorA_law_: not busted your Z again :-)
08:59.41_law_XorA, no only the usb cable :-) never used it before, but i seams to be broken
09:00.27XorA_law_: sucks, I take it you have another cable to compare with
09:01.07_law_XorA, no i only have an docking station for a 5000d :-(
09:02.13_law_but i think the cable is damaged, after the zaurus plug :-(
09:05.42_law_http://members.a1.net/patrick.steiner/dsc00003.jpg (only taken with my phone :-()
09:06.25_law_but this look good, so it only could be the cable
09:08.52XorA_law_: looks like you had a soldering accident there :-)

09:12.25_law_XorA, i only opened the cable, havent done any soldering
09:12.50alan|laptopmorning everyone
09:12.50XorA_law_: ah, looked like a soldering iron burn on the gromit
09:17.07_law_XorA, gromit? i know my english is bad :-)
09:17.50_law_is the powersupply needed?
09:18.01XorA_law_: the bit that stops the cable chaffing on plastic case
09:57.42_law_XorA, i think you are right
09:58.09_law_XorA, so i have do cut the cable...
09:58.54*** join/#openzaurus bjoern_ (n=bjoern@75-27.wlan.rz.uni-potsdam.de)
10:00.56XorA_law_: it didnt look deep enough in the pic to damage the individual conductors, but might give a clue that someone has messed with the cable somwhere
10:01.36XorA_law_: if you are not a proficient solderer/cable splicing, it might end up cheaper just buying a sync cable on ebay :-)
10:01.43XorAby cheaper I mean in time as well
10:05.51RalafeWhich file is supposed to be renamed to initrd.bin?
10:06.46Jinidogthe big one :)
10:09.02RalafeOh, I thought that was the one that was to be renamed hdimage1.tgz
10:09.49RalafeI'm trying to figure out what goes where for flashing 3.5.4-RC to a 3100
10:34.00RalafeWhat's the difference between the bootstrap image and the gpe/opie images?
10:34.37_law_Ralafe, bootstrap is without any gui
10:34.57RalafeAh, cool.
10:37.06RalafeIs there a way to re-partition the flash under OZ?

12:13.22Ralafealan|laptop: Well, I quickly run out of space on the root partition in flash, when I have all the space in the world on /home and 4 gigs on the hard drive.
12:14.13hrw|workRalafe: you have borzoi - install all to hdd maybe?
12:16.48alan|laptopfolk, a friend of mine showed me he could watch tv on his cell phone. Do you think there will be anyway to to this on a zaurus ?
12:17.02alan|laptopi know we can do something like this with vlc
12:17.21RalafeHmm, I figured there might be an option to do that in ipkg, forgot about that possibility. Right now, though, I find myself unable to install anything on a fresh reflash. No idea why.
12:17.27alan|laptopbut i think about something like a dvb-t usb reciever...
12:19.03alan|laptopRalafe: to install to anywhere else than root, add a line to your /etc/ipkg.conf file (everything is explained there) and then type ipkg -d [location_name] install [ipk_name]
12:19.43Ralafeipkg -V 3 install gpsd scrolls for a few minutes, then spits out "Configuring unpacked pagkages" "Nothing to be done" and "An error occured, return value: 1." in that order. Happens with any package I try to install.
12:20.14hrw|workRalafe: blame sharp for not using uDrive as default
12:20.37RalafeThis is on a fresh reflash, 21.9m free on target.

12:31.03RalafeWell, for a minute there, I thought it might have something to do with my system time being somewhere in 1970

12:35.02RalafeI figured. I just didn't re-set the date after flashing.
12:35.31RalafeBut unfortunately that didn't have much to do with the problem.
12:48.44RalafeIs there a better way than -V 3 to get ipkg to spit out debug information? It doesn't want to tell me anything relevant to the error it's getting.

14:27.34folkertI've got a SL-5600, but the usb networking broke after upgrading my desktop
14:27.53folkertgot the same experience?
14:28.46hrw|workI dont use usbnet with my sl-5500 which run 2.4.18. and my c760 use other API for usbnet
14:28.57hrw|workfolkert: you lack 'zaurus' module probably on desktop
14:29.10folkertno, I don't
14:29.29hrw|workthen pester linux-usb people
14:29.49folkertwhen I plug my zaurus in, the modules 'zaurus' 'cdc_ether' and 'usbnet' are loaded
14:30.17folkertbefore, 'usbnet' and 'cdc_subset' were loaded
14:30.23folkertthat worked
14:30.35folkertbut now it's broken somehow
14:31.43hrw|workpester linux-usb people
14:31.52hrw|workI dont know how to change it
14:31.57folkertright, I will
14:32.06folkertthanks anyway
14:35.54Jinidogfolkert, I know that
14:36.26JinidogThat is a kernel bug that I experience with my zaurus since kernel 2.6.14
14:36.44JinidogI reported here, I mailed over the linux-usb list, but no one really cares
14:37.34JinidogPut in usb-debug support, then you will probably find some output in dmesg
14:38.01Jinidogwell, how is it broken? does usbd0 not show up in ifconfig or does the connection hang as soon as you use it
14:38.07Jinidogthe later is my problem
14:41.13folkertright now, usb0 doesn't show up at all
14:41.56folkertbut earlier (a previous version of udev probably) the connection worked, but crashed often when used
14:42.51Jinidognot showing off is one thing that has probably to do with a malconfigured kernel
14:43.04Jinidogthe crash is the real problem
14:43.44folkertit's the same kernel as before, only (probably) an updated udev
15:10.33*** join/#openzaurus mrz80 (i=1000@caledonia.cns.ufl.edu)
15:13.23folkertgee, it worked!
15:13.56folkertI don't know how, but with the altered drivers it just seems to work
15:14.07Jinidogaltered drivers?
15:14.32folkertyes, as of 2.6.14 the module usbnet is split up in submodules
15:14.46folkertfirst just usbnet was loaded
15:14.54folkertthen submodule cdc_subset
15:15.03folkertand now cdc_ether and zaurus
15:15.55folkertI now just have to try and fire it up automatically by hotplug
15:17.09Jinidogand can you ssh into your zaurus and get a correct output from dmesg without a hanging console
15:19.17Jinidog?
15:31.16Jinidogfolkert, please answer
15:36.02folkertsorry, but no, the connection often hangs for no particular reason
15:36.06folkertsame as before
15:36.26Jinidogyou see, that is the bug in the kernel
15:36.44Jinidogso I have at least one person else who can confirm it
15:36.54Jinidogtry with kernel-2.6.13, that'll work
15:37.17Jinidogit looks as if only the SL-5600 is victim of this
15:37.35JinidogI'll mail again to the devs
15:39.06folkertright
15:41.00hrw|workJinidog: you have pxa250 and proper kernel? not kernel for pxa255?
