01:05.06Gin-geRCan anyone tell me what is the real life battery life of 3100 ?
01:16.43JustinPGin-geR: no, but I can tell you with my C3000 with the screen off and playing music will last 7+ hours
01:18.28JustinPCoreDump|afk: have you perhaps done multiple e builds in the same dir?
01:18.57JustinPCoreDump|afk: OE seems to be having problems lately with pulling includes first from staging instead of the local dir...

02:25.11synthgah, how long should a good battery last for a 5500 ? 2-3 hours?
02:25.14synthor is that wishful thinking
02:27.22CoreDump|afka new one maybe heh
02:30.36JustinPshould last longer than that if you turn down the backlight
02:30.46JustinPand if you turn off the screen it should last for 5-6+
02:30.54JustinP(i.e. playing music)

02:32.57CoreDump|afkJustinP: it was indeed a b0rked staging
02:33.02JustinPas it should be

02:36.10CoreDump|afkhmm e-wm's do_fetch fails
02:39.00JustinPno
02:39.04JustinPno f-ing way
02:41.15CoreDump|afkyep
02:41.34CoreDump|afkcould you tar up sources/cvs/e-wm for me?
02:41.50JustinPe-wm shouldn't be pulling from cvs
02:42.06CoreDump|afkcvs://anonymous@thinktux.net/root;module=e17/apps/e/data/themes;date=20050926"
02:42.19CoreDump|afkcauses a python error
02:42.23JustinPthen you're building the wrong one....do you not have a DISTRO?
02:42.35CoreDump|afkoz-unst. of course
02:42.39JustinP....
02:42.45JustinPit shouldn't be building CVS
02:42.48CoreDump|afke-0.16.999.023-r1/
02:42.58CoreDump|afkit isn't
02:43.13CoreDump|afkit is only pulling the themes from CVS
02:43.57CoreDump|afke's file management upstream is a joke
02:44.32simcop2387e17 will rule! (this has been a public announcement by an E fanboy using fvwm2)
02:44.46simcop2387but yea its really a mess upstream last i looked
02:44.58CoreDump|afkit sure does =) but building it can be a pain at times
02:45.03synthJustinP, law of diminishing returns with battery memory then huh
02:45.29CoreDump|afk"diminishing returns" sounds soo WoW
02:45.31JustinPCoreDump|afk: hmmm...not sure why I'm pulling that. Try removing it
02:45.39CoreDump|afkheh k
02:45.48synthJustinP, wonder if i ran it full empty and fully charged it if it would last longer.  dont know how long it does last but i can practically watch the %s change when i have my wifi card in heh
02:46.07synthit keeps recalculatting. one minute its in the 30%s the next the 40s
02:46.30synthCoreDump|afk, trust me that's not from WOW :D
02:47.04CoreDump|afksynth: =)
02:47.10JustinPsynth: yes, wifi takes a lot of battery power
02:47.13CoreDump|afkNOTE: package e-wm-0.16.999.023-r3: task do_configure: started
02:47.33synthJustinP, but even w/out that the battery still goes fast.. i'll try to turn the screen off and see if i can get 5hrs out of a full charge then
02:47.40CoreDump|afkIIRC a brand new Collie w/ brand new battery lasted 2.5hrs w/ wifi
02:47.40JustinPCoreDump|afk: compile prepend is going to fail....
02:47.46synthJustinP, im wondering if its worth the 50 dollar investment for a new battery
02:47.46JustinPhmmm....
02:47.49synthahh really coredump
02:47.50synthok
02:48.12synththe 6000 was because of the 5500s crap batt life i know that much
02:48.37synthwow 33% to 29% in 5 minutes heh
02:48.48synthback to 33%! come on, normalize! ;)
02:49.53CoreDump|afkJustinP: might as well use themes from enlightenmen_$PV right?
02:50.06synthusing e's canvas?
02:50.36synthso is it better to let the 5500 drain low then charge or just charge whenever, because of battery memory
02:50.37JustinPCoreDump|afk: comment out the copies from themes in do_compile_prepend
02:51.30CoreDump|afkfor understandings sake, why were you doing that in the first place?
02:52.17JustinPsynth: if it's li-ion (I believe it is) it shouldn't have memory
02:52.28JustinPCoreDump|afk: because the themes were bad on one of the releases....
02:52.34CoreDump|afkah i c
02:52.43JustinPCoreDump|afk: I'll check in those changes once I test them...
02:52.47CoreDump|afksure
02:53.07synthJustinP, i thought it was but im not sure so i'll take your word for it :D
02:53.22CoreDump|afkif you need webspace for sources (as e keeps deleting old releases...) let me know
02:54.28JustinPCoreDump|afk: well it's fine not having the old ones...the new ones *are* better...
02:54.39synthhaha i turned the brightness up to max and it immediately went to 3%
02:54.53synthdoes this thing keep track of how it normalizes its estimates?
02:54.58CoreDump|afkbut it stinks that 3 days old .bb files break due to not keeping old releases
02:55.18JustinPtrue
02:55.35CoreDump|afkyay NOTE: package e-wm-0.16.999.023: completed
02:56.20CoreDump|afksynth: may I ask what version of OZ you are running on that Collie?
02:57.09synthdunno, sys info says its a build from 2005-04-07 19:38
02:57.19synthi havent upgraded in forever, i had given up on the fucking thing
02:57.19CoreDump|afkugh
02:57.23synthtoo much frustration
02:57.36synthput it to sleep, it doesnt come back
02:57.42synthput it to sleep, it comes back w/no CF
02:57.51CoreDump|afksounds like 3.5.3 w/o new kernel =)
02:57.54synthput it to sleep once and lost a gpe session
02:58.03synthbeen logging in as root ever since
02:58.11synthlog on as my user and i just get the blank X with cursor
02:58.31CoreDump|afkyou should register for the 3.5.4RC builds from hrw
02:58.31synthso it hasnt improved much huh
02:58.44CoreDump|afk3.5.4 blows 3.5.x out of the water
02:58.51CoreDump|afk(and back)
02:58.51synthfor collie even?
02:59.11CoreDump|afkthe distro base has seen tons of improvements
02:59.14JustinPfor everything
02:59.17CoreDump|afkthat counts for collie,too
02:59.26synthregister? where and how
02:59.31synthhrw? who/what is that
02:59.36CoreDump|afkopenzaurus.org
02:59.58synthits not 2.6 kernel is it?
02:59.58CoreDump|afkhttp://openzaurus.org/wordpress/2006/01/09/openzaurus-354-release-plans/#comments
03:00.03CoreDump|afkno
03:00.03synthSD working?
03:00.05synthah
03:00.11CoreDump|afkstill 2.4
03:00.17synthwell good, i want SD :D
03:00.20CoreDump|afkcan't have everything 09
03:00.34synthwhat does 2.6 offer strongarm really
03:00.38synthhotplug?
03:00.47JustinPno crappy embeddix kernels
03:00.48synthi cant think what else
03:00.53CoreDump|afkno clue. 2.6 on collie doesn't exist for me due to missing SD
03:00.58synthexactly
03:01.02JustinPalthough some people put a ot of work into the collie 2.4 kernel...
03:01.09CoreDump|afkon akita it rocks
03:01.10synththere have been a couple collie patches applied to the main kernel tree in the last couple months
03:01.17synthfor touch screen and the actual screen buffer
03:01.17JustinPhas MMC doesn't it?
03:01.24CoreDump|afksystem is alot more responsive, feels faster
03:01.30synthbut i fucking hate the fact that the SD is so cllosed up
03:01.36CoreDump|afkJustinP: yes MMC should work
03:02.24JustinPif MMC works you can still access your "SD" cards fine....
03:02.55CoreDump|afkJustinP: nah SD does _not_ work. That's what RP told me a few month back
03:03.29CoreDump|afkanyway, screw collie =D
03:03.37synthhey thats all i have heh
03:03.41JustinPif you mean the *slot* doesn't work that's different
03:03.43CoreDump|afkheh j/k
03:03.52synthso SD doesnt work on the new 3.5.4 ?
03:03.55synthfor collie
03:04.05CoreDump|afksynth: 3.5.4 ships w/ kernel 2.4
03:04.24synthok. and its that module interface that their modules need huh
03:04.30synthwhy hasnt someone written a compat layer?
03:04.35CoreDump|afkyuck
03:04.46CoreDump|afkjust looks at the crappix kernel coe
03:04.48CoreDump|afkcode
03:05.01synthnever looked at embeddix stuff
03:05.03synthhorrible huh
03:05.08CoreDump|afkI've seen grown man break out in tears just _looking_ at it
03:05.09CoreDump|afk=)
03:05.17syntho/~ you make a grown man cry o/~
03:07.27JustinPe-image will fail
03:07.32CoreDump|afkJustinP: some day I'll have to look at spitz's altboot scripts again. There were many recent changes
03:07.33JustinPdue to dbus versions....
03:07.38CoreDump|afkmeh I forgot
03:07.46JustinPI'm doing e-image-core right now
03:07.52JustinPwill be testig e-image
03:07.56JustinPsoon
03:07.59CoreDump|afkbitbake e-image-core
03:08.42synthso you are foregoing gpe/opie for enlightenment canvas?
03:09.01CoreDump|afkNOTE: package e-image-core-1.0-r1: task do_rootfs: started
03:09.11JustinPcanvas?
03:09.23synthyeah rasterman has a canvas that runs on zaurus screenbuffers
03:09.29synthinstead of GPE/OPIE
03:09.34CoreDump|afkoh that
03:09.37JustinPno, not using that
03:09.40JustinPit's on X
03:09.42CoreDump|afksaw a photo of it once heh
03:09.44synththought yo were building the underpinnings
03:09.47synthahhh i see
03:09.52synthhis stuff is impressive :)
03:10.00synthi havent seen this canvas, but ive worked with his code before
03:10.12CoreDump|afkthe PDA e looked cool
03:10.23CoreDump|afkbut full blown e looks even better
03:10.34synthe17 needs a lot of help...
03:10.39CoreDump|afkhttp://hentges.net/tmp/screenshots/Zaurus/Akita/Enlightenment/
03:10.43synthit doesnt do xinerama right, and of coruse its still got tons of bugs
03:11.35CoreDump|afkwell, e17 is in dev since how many years again?
03:11.37synthits fun though, the eye candy is amazing. he re-wrote xrender using mmx opts and it fucking screams
03:11.44synthoh god since 94-95
03:11.49synthwell E originally.
03:11.53synthi made the first themes for it :)
03:12.01CoreDump|afk=) I see it more of a proof-of-concept than a DE
03:12.06synthbut if you were to see the lib deps
03:12.06CoreDump|afksynth: =)
03:12.10synthoh he's been harddd at work
03:12.47CoreDump|afkhe has one hell of a hand for eyecandy
03:12.48synthhttp://www.rasterman.com/files/efl.png
03:12.50synththere you go
03:12.55synththat's why e17 isnt done yet
03:13.26JustinPe-wm is actualy getting pretty stable
03:13.40JustinPlots of the efl isn't required for e-wm
03:13.47JustinPand raster doesn't care about anything but e-wm
03:13.47synthits usable, i used it daily for over a year constantly updating cvs- but he just doesnt have time to fix xinerama and neither do I
03:13.50synthso I ditched it
03:14.16CoreDump|afkNOTE: package e-image-core-1.0: completed
03:14.22synthits ok so far.
03:15.15synthgpe or opie?
03:15.34synthi should have just said "vim or emacs"
03:15.34CoreDump|afkthere is no war
03:15.38CoreDump|afkopie is dead
03:15.42synthoh really
03:15.43CoreDump|afkor dying
03:15.47synthahhh k
03:16.09CoreDump|afkand emacs sucks =)
03:16.10synthso since GPE is X based, OPIE was FB right?
03:16.20synthemacs = eight megs and constantly swapping
03:16.27CoreDump|afkhehe
03:16.56JustinPemacs kicks ass
03:17.02synthso you just ditched GPE for WM since GPE runs on X, huh CoreDump
03:17.24CoreDump|afksynth: I don't understand that question
03:17.41synthCoreDump|afk, well how'd you get windowmaker on there instead of GPE
03:17.53CoreDump|afkI was talking about my desktop lol
03:17.56synthi thought opie wasnt on X, i thought it was using trolltech's framebuffer
03:17.57synthiohhhh
03:17.59synthbastard :D
03:18.02CoreDump|afkhehe
03:18.20CoreDump|afkwell, wmaker would be somehow cute on a Z
03:18.30synthmetashitty is what i'm on now but i cant stand this thing so i'll find something else
03:18.35synthsawfish was slow..
03:18.44CoreDump|afkbut the coolest thing to date was running Amiga OS under UAE on a Z
03:18.55synthwmaker would be good on the Z cause of its win borders
03:19.01synthvery compact and easy to find corners to drag
03:19.25synthi wanna play games on here but i cant believe how crap the battery life is
03:19.37synthi should go upgrade..
03:20.04JustinPbattery life is ok if you remove the wifi...
03:20.32synthi removed the wifi long ago and its gone from 30-40%ish to 5% since i started typing in here
03:20.34synth:(
03:20.45synthmaybe 60-66% brightness
03:20.59synthi could always get 2 batts and swap..
03:21.17synthif 3.5.4 is so much better for collies
03:23.02synthso whats the Akita? a newer zaurus?
03:23.09CoreDump|afk~akita
03:23.10ibotsomebody said akita was the Sharp SL-C1000, or a dog
03:23.19synthhaha
03:23.29synth"an akita is a dog"  "the sharp sl-c1000 runs like a dog"
03:23.33synthopen to interpretetation
03:23.53synthwell damn thats nice to have e17 on that
03:23.55synthlooks sweet.
03:23.57CoreDump|afk640x480 screen, PXA270/400MHz, 128MB "ROM" 64MB RAM, USB host(!)
03:24.02synthhm back up to 8%
03:24.16synthno shit? how much they go for
03:24.32CoreDump|afkumm 600 euros last time I looked
03:24.35synth400-550 froogle shows
03:24.36synthUSD
03:24.50synthwtf! 1% now lhaha
03:24.51CoreDump|afkwell, I didn't look in the past few month heh
03:25.00JustinPC3000 is nicer
03:25.04JustinP;-)
03:25.16synthomg i plugged in and it went to 25% immediately
03:25.20synththat has to be software.. :)
03:25.38CoreDump|afkyour battery is dead
03:25.49synthheh
03:26.00synthbut it really cant normalize its amts though :)
03:26.52synthso li-on has no memory effect issue, this is just an old crusty batt then
03:29.26JustinPa 4GB HDD makes booting images easy
03:29.42synthwish i had the $ to blow on that stuff
03:29.45synthi can barely make ends meet heh
03:30.14JustinPme too actually
03:30.20JustinPI just got lucky with a tax return
03:30.29synthand i wont charge it, cause i know id just make min payments and then pay interest to the cc comps
03:30.54synthyeah i have nothing to itemize so my taxes will be straightfwd this year
03:30.59synthno chances for me to rake back loot
03:31.17CoreDump|afkJustinP: entrance doesn't come up heh
03:31.54synthi do have a TIN though, wonder if i could write off some of these things as business expenses
03:32.04synthcause i do consult from my home.
03:32.30JustinPCoreDump|afk: I tested it the other day.
03:34.20CoreDump|afkJustinP: ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh does again the trick *shrug*
03:36.22synthso i have to sign up w/hrw to get the build for 3.5.4 ?
03:36.32CoreDump|afkyes
03:36.33synthim having trouble finding his email addy in that loonnnggg post
03:36.42synthhis name links to his web site
03:36.49synthbut i dont see it there either
03:37.05synthi cant wait. can you send me a copy? :D
03:37.13synthjustinp? :)
03:37.15synthdo you hav eit
03:37.36JustinPI don't have a collie any more
03:37.50CoreDump|afkwell, I have a not-so-standard collie Opie image
03:38.00synthif its 3.5.4 i'll take it :)
03:38.01JustinPCoreDump|afk: I don't believe that...I patched the hell out of it, there are no refs to /bin/sh in entrance....have you updated?
03:38.10CoreDump|afkyep
03:38.17CoreDump|afkpull from 20:00
03:38.59JustinPsomething must be wrong then...
03:39.01JustinPgrrr
03:40.34synthso the collie is considered stable with the 3.5.4 hrw builds?
03:40.40synthcause it _never_ was right..
03:40.48CoreDump|afkworks fine for me
03:40.56CoreDump|afkbut i don't use it much
03:41.09synthwow. tahts great. my zaurus collected dust for a year because of the frustrations i had w/it
03:41.40synthi ran software off of the CF and when an awake from a sleep didnt bring the CF back, aw fuck, that was a bitch
03:45.29CoreDump|afkFWIW, I am successfuly resuming when my _rootfs_ is on NFS.
03:50.26CoreDump|afkkilling off cardclt while root is on NFS is not the brightest of ideas
03:52.38synth<3 coffee

04:34.11CoreDump|afkonly entering a wrong password works, tries everything
04:34.30JustinPso entering a wrong password makes it go back to username?
04:34.36CoreDump|afkyes
04:34.40JustinPkind of strange....is it that way on startup?
04:34.51CoreDump|afkhmm dunno, sec
04:35.14CoreDump|afkinstalling task gpe introduced a few problems
04:35.38JustinPyou shouldn't have installed task-gpe....
04:35.53JustinPOZ is not set up to have multiple wms...
04:35.58JustinPinstall some of the smaller tasks
04:36.01JustinPlike task-gpe-pim
04:36.05CoreDump|afkI did
04:36.31CoreDump|afkand OZ _could_ be setup to handle mutliple wms...
04:36.54JustinPsure it could

06:49.07hrhrhi all
06:50.48hrhrplz, help me anybody, I want to buy used sl-c3100... what things I need to test at first, what bugs or deffects I can see...
06:50.49shadowsder
06:51.04hrhrshadows: any ideas?
06:51.17shadowsthere's a built in technician's test menu
06:51.41hrhrlink for description?
06:52.05hrhror say me plz how it works and what I need to do
06:52.08shadowsoh
06:53.16hrhr=/
06:53.22shadowsremove battery and charge cord, depress "reset" button in battery compartment, hold "D" and "M" keys on keyboard while replacing battery and AC power
06:54.00shadowsit is vital that the D and M key presses remain contacted without interruption while restoring power to the Z
06:54.14shadowsthen the technicians menu will boot
06:54.27shadowsthere's a whole section of it for testing your Z
06:54.42shadowslike, LCD test, where i found the 2 dead pixels my unit has
06:55.02shadowsone pixel is dead under most conditions and i knew about, the other one is only under certain conditions and is new news to me
06:56.27shadowssound tests, USB and mouse tests, and so on
06:56.43shadowssome of the tests are destructive, and will fry your Z
06:56.56shadowsit is best to buy a C3100 from a reputable dealer
06:57.22hrhrI try to buy 3100 - 850$

07:04.13hrhrwhat devices are compatible with zaurus usb-host?
07:04.25hrhrkeyboards, printers?
07:08.00shadowsit depends on drivers
07:08.04shadowsthe hardware is USB 1.1
07:08.21hrhrcan I use zaurus as a usb-storage device? (I mean g_file_storage on pxa270)
07:08.32shadowsyes, that is rumored to work
07:08.39shadowsi don't use it myself though
07:09.26hrhrI read that it have USB 2.0 but not full speed, and somebody on #openzaurus say me this
07:10.23shadowsthey are referring to USB 1.1
07:10.29NAbyssYes, USB OTG is part of the 2.0 spec.

07:16.00shadowsi am saying, the life may be reduced from your expected "average hard disk" MTBF  mean time between failure, due to its useage pattern

17:11.10radugathe closest I can think of is the old Psion S5
17:11.24radugaand then you've got the super-expensive handheld PC clones
17:11.46Gin-geRPsion S5?
17:12.22Gin-geRWell, basically, what makes me think of nokia is that it has 800x480 screen...
17:13.15radugagin-ger: the real crucial dividing point between Zaurus and non-Zaurus, for most people, is the keyboard
17:13.28radugaif you don't care about the ability to type, get a nokia
17:13.38Gin-geRwell, yes, nokia lacks the keyboard and it bothers me a lot.
17:13.41radugaits probably faster, better screen, more memory, etc
17:14.02Gin-geRlack of the keyboard and 3 hours battery lifetime...
17:14.53Gin-geRbut what I don't like about zaurus is this 640xx480 and a lot of space wasted around the screen...
17:14.53Gin-geRHow convinient is zaurus keyboard, btw?
17:15.16CoreDump|homevery
17:16.12Gin-geRGood... Looks like I'll go for zaurus...
17:16.16radugagin-ger: there *are* handhelds with better keyboards, but all of them so ancient as to be nearly extinct (and mostly heavy and bulky)
17:16.44Gin-geRraduga: well, I don't want heavy and bulky one. ^)
17:16.55radugapretty much all the psions, a couple old HP Jornadas, and a few models of Toshiba Libretto
17:17.36Gin-geRNot sure what HP and psions are running, but I'd prefer linux. And libretto is indeed nearly extinct and bulky.
17:17.54Gin-geRbesides, I think its battery life isn't very appealing.

17:18.33CoreDump|homeouch
17:18.40Gin-geRdoesn't sound like much fun ;-)
17:19.02radugathe jornadas (some of them anyway) can run linux, and are not bad machines. (well, relatively old and slow, but not unreasonably)
17:19.05Gin-geRI think zaurus wouldn't last less than my palm tungsten for, say, plain reading?
17:19.36radugait would last less time, most likely; at least based on my previous palm experience,
17:19.44radugabut I have no idea about the tungsten
17:19.45Gin-geRI'll look into jornadas, but I'm afraid if one considers zaurus he's not likely to go for jornada?
17:19.53radugagin-ger: don't look into the jornadas
17:20.00Gin-geROkay, I will not ;-)
17:20.44Gin-geRhmm... much less? I think my tungsten now lasts for 8 hours at most (it's 3 years old)

17:25.37CoreDump|homeyep
17:25.45Gin-geRThanks, CoreDump
17:25.49CoreDump|homenp
17:26.43radugaif you're running an X-based system, you can use most standard X stuff (fonts, etc)
17:27.03Gin-geRGreat. And if I'm not (I'm not sure yet what I'm going to run there)
17:27.12radugathough by default the Zaurus ships with a system developed by Sharp that not-a-lot-of-people seem to like
17:27.39Gin-geRYeah, I know. Most likely I'll just back it up and go for something completely different, but there are alternatives.
17:27.40radugaOpenZaurus is one attempt to fix that problem. Its very likely the best.
17:28.07Gin-geRlooks like it. That's why I'm here.
17:28.53Gin-geRwonderful screenshots. And, as far as I remember, Akita has no HDD, right?
17:29.03radugaakita has no HDD, correct
17:29.28Gin-geRSo all this stuff that fits into it is pretty smallish...
17:29.52radugaprobably slightly better battery life than Spitz and Borzoi
17:30.18Gin-geRBut I'm not obliged to use HDD all the time even if I have it, right?
17:30.19radugacurrent models of Zaurus have up to 128mb of flash onboard
17:30.34radugawhich is the primary storage for the C1000 (and all earlier)
17:31.00radugathe hdd should power down when not in use
17:31.14radugaC1000 = 128mb flash
17:31.15Gin-geRyes, but I can use, say, 3100 mostly in c1000 fashion, right?
17:31.22radugaC3000 = 16mb flash, 4gb hdd
17:31.33radugac3100 = 128mb flash, 4gb hdd
17:32.03Gin-geRyup. so whatever fits on C1000 in flash can sit there on c3100 as well.
17:32.08radugawell, yes.  just don't access anything on the other filesystem
17:32.27Gin-geRSounds like fun.
17:32.40radugayes :)
17:32.59Gin-geRAnd, I think, SD card drains power less than hdd either?
17:33.38radugasd and cf flash don't use a whole lot of power, but they use a bit.
17:33.58radugacf wlan uses quite a bit.
17:34.08Gin-geRsure they're not taking power from the thin air ;-) I just have 128M SD card from my palm...
17:34.18Gin-geRAha, and bluetooth uses less, I think?
17:34.23radugano idea
17:34.32Gin-geRI have both WLAN and bluetooth here, so I can chose.
17:34.41hrw|workbt use less then wifi rather
17:34.44Gin-geRI use it to get mail on my tungsten...
17:34.53Gin-geRjust ppp over bt
17:35.15Gin-geRAnd there are USB charging cables available?
17:35.34hrw|workGin-geR: yes
17:36.01Gin-geRGreat. I think I'll order one as a birthday gift for my precious self ;)
17:36.20radugaalso, if you're enterprising (and don't like the idea of a spinning disk inside your zaurus) you can remove the HDD, and replace it with a CF flash card
17:36.35radugathough that probably voids the warranty (and may be a little tricky)
17:36.56Gin-geRI may go for it when it's a year or two old, maybe ;-)
17:37.23radugathe 3000, 3100 have an internal CF socket in addition to the standard external one.  you probably won't fit anything other than a memory card in it though.
17:37.49radugagin-ger: wait until the HDD warranty runs out.  Then it will crash for sure.
17:37.52Gin-geRAh. I didn't know that.
17:38.08Gin-geRWell, I sure will do that if HDD crashes ;-)
17:38.13radugathe internal CF slot is not "user serviceable"
17:38.18radugasome disassembly required
17:38.34Gin-geRSo I'll better postpone playing around with it.
17:38.49radugapractice on your Tungsten, first :)

17:38.54Gin-geROnce you open the device you can hardly stop doing it once in a short while ;-)
17:39.06Gin-geRBTW, I haven't opened tungsten even once yet.
17:39.37radugahave you seen the OESF forums?
17:39.49radugahttp://www.oesf.org/forums
17:39.58Gin-geRnope, should I go there before buying the thing? :)
17:40.12radugaits a good source of information, actually
17:40.25radugayou can go there, and find out what people don't like about the Z
17:40.29radugaand find out what they do like
17:40.32Gin-geRThank you. I'll go read now instead of bothering you then.
17:40.38radugaand see what's available, and what doesn't work
17:40.47radugaoh, feel free to bother us all you like
17:40.56radugabut be warned, I don't always give accurate information
17:41.02CoreDump|homehttp://hentges.net/tmp/photos/Akita/ <- open Akita
17:41.40Gin-geRWell, nobody does, rainbow. But you know it's not nice of me to ask you for things I can read over there.
17:43.25Gin-geRraduga, where does you nickname come from?

17:45.12Gin-geRAha, I'm trying to figure out if you also had to deal with cyrillic ;-)
17:45.28radugathere are a bunch of russians here, actually.
17:45.31radugaI'm not one of them :)
17:45.52radugabut cyrillic is fairly well supported, at least on pdaXrom and CaCko QT rom
17:46.01raduganot sure about OZ.
17:46.01Gin-geRI see. Well, if they are here then they probably have all the solutions which means the solutions exist ;-)
17:46.27Gin-geRWe'll see then. ;)
17:46.28hrw|workOZ/opie use ttf-dejavu which has cyrylic glyphs
17:46.40Gin-geRaha, thanks hrw
17:46.56Gin-geRBTW, can one load console fonts on zaurus?
17:47.09*** join/#openzaurus sleeplap (n=sleeplap@24-116-26-66.cpe.cableone.net)
17:47.24CoreDump|homehmmmmmm, as it is a real linux at its core, I'd say yes
17:47.25hrw|workGin-geR: install console-tools (by default on clamshells) and proper font
17:47.52Gin-geRThanks.
17:48.25Gin-geRhrw|work: thnks, so far I was only trying to figure out if it's possible. But now I even know there's nothing special about it.
17:48.43hrw|workGin-geR: basically it is linux box with 2.4/2.6 kernel
17:48.59Gin-geRyup. But things like that may depend on hardware as well.
17:50.34Gin-geRCoreDump|home: I never configure fonts as long as I have all characters needed available ;-)

17:50.55Gin-geRWell, thank you guys, I'll go read forums for a while.
