00:00.20CoreDump|homeok I read that wrong =)
00:00.39Gin-geRxdamn, what was that with nand restore... MD?
00:01.49Gin-geRxit just boots. I think I forgot how to do it
00:03.35Gin-geRxI can't get into service menu :)
00:04.32CoreDump|homehttp://trisoft.de/en_c3100howto.htm
00:05.03Gin-geRxokay, I am there
00:06.03Gin-geRxdelete all flash data?
00:06.39Gin-geRxhmm
00:08.18Gin-geRxrestoring....
00:10.19Gin-geRxit says ok... :)
00:12.20Gin-geRxit seems to be alive ;-)))
00:12.49Gin-geRxtime for oz now.
00:14.23Gin-geRxcomes up, indeed, with original sharp/trisoft barking borsoi :)
00:17.32Gin-geRxbooting...
00:18.36Gin-geRxI really like the console on zaurus. It looks so like the proper computer ;-)
00:25.18Gin-geRxWell, I can't login ;-)
00:26.48Gin-geRxis there a way to switch to console?
00:27.38Gin-geRxam I alone here? :)
00:28.49Gin-geRxI can only catch a glimpse of console when ctrl-alt-backspacing :)
00:30.13Gin-geRxheh, easy - ctl-alt-bs too many times for xdm (or whoever that is)
00:30.45Gin-geRxwhat sharp rom? I'm in oz gpe image
00:31.30Gin-geRxlooking at .xsession-errors now
00:33.19Gin-geRxX connectio to :0.0 broken...
00:34.08CoreDump|homerm /etc/keylaunchrc
00:34.22CoreDump|home(if gpe login dies)
00:34.59Gin-geRxexactly.
00:37.04Gin-geRxso, is there a way to get to console withouth ctrl-alt-bs-ing several times?
00:37.17CoreDump|homenope
00:37.29CoreDump|homeas there is no F1 mapped =)
00:37.43Gin-geRxpity. It's xmodmappable, though, I believe.
00:37.52Gin-geRxyou don't have to use f1 for it.
00:37.55Gin-geRxjust any key.
00:38.25Gin-geRxAt least on 'real' X
00:38.48Gin-geRxjust put into setup server or whatever.
00:38.55Gin-geRxOkay, here I am in mb :)
00:39.15Gin-geRxtime to get connected

21:18.22JustinPoh, messages *to* unregistered users...
21:18.26JustinPdid you register?
21:18.38Gin-geRxNope. ;-)
21:18.53Gin-geRxAnd no, not *to*
21:18.57Gin-geRxI received your messages
21:19.06Gin-geRxIt's just that my replies never reached you.
21:19.47JustinPoh< i see
21:19.51JustinPha
21:20.04Gin-geRxBut, I think I will not go for OZ...
21:20.22Gin-geRxIt is, actually, great for a tiny computer, but not really for PDA.

21:24.09Gin-geRxAnd since my "computer" needs belong to shell and mostly ssh, I think I'll have to go for something more PDA-oriented.
21:24.09Gin-geRxfor now...
21:32.00*** join/#openzaurus Timelord (n=TL@4.78.4.43)
21:44.16CoreDump|homeGin-geRx: I'm sorry to hear that
21:44.24Gin-geRxCoreDump|home, Me too, in fact.
21:44.53Gin-geRxIf I had two monsters I would definitely keep OZ on one ;-)
21:44.53CoreDump|homeyou did try GPE _and_ opie right?
21:44.57CoreDump|home=)
21:45.01Gin-geRxOf course. And more than once :)
21:45.05CoreDump|homehe
21:45.11Gin-geRxI was hoping ;-)
21:45.30CoreDump|homeopie is as close as you'll get to a "real" PDA OS (currently)
21:45.42Gin-geRxYes, but it's way behind cacko.
21:46.17Gin-geRxAt first I was scared by really ugly default windows decorations, btw. If I weren't me, that could be the end ;-)
21:46.35CoreDump|homeheh
21:47.05Gin-geRxWell, in fact, I think I'll check OZ again one day.
21:47.21Gin-geRxor another :)
21:48.26*** part/#openzaurus tapo (n=tklopp@u15-1.dsl.vianetworks.de)
21:48.33CoreDump|homechoice is a wonderful thing
21:48.53Gin-geRxVery true!
21:49.04Gin-geRxBut, in fact, it's a bad thing too.
21:49.19Gin-geRxWhenever someone asks me what linux distribution to chose I suggest BSD :)
21:49.23Gin-geRxFreeBSD that is.
21:49.35CoreDump|homelol
21:50.19Gin-geRxIndeed, when I wasn't as unemployed as I am now and had to deal with customers, I prefered FreeBSD on customers machines. But I use linux at home.
21:50.26Gin-geRxand at workplace, when I have one...
21:50.33CoreDump|home:\
21:50.50Gin-geRxI'm running gentoo now, but for a few years I've been building up my system from scratch ;-)
21:51.01CoreDump|homeouch
21:51.07Gin-geRxJust because I was dissatisfied with everything.
21:51.26Gin-geRxHad a kind of ports tree. Ported pkg-install tool from BSD and used it on my machine:)
21:51.39CoreDump|homenice =)
21:51.45Gin-geRxNot that my 'ports' were like BSD ones.
21:51.57CoreDump|homeBut I'd be to lazy for LFS
21:52.15Gin-geRxWell, I've done my best to avoid :)
21:52.38CoreDump|homein fact, I'm curretnly looking for a "point and click" type of Linux distro
21:52.46Gin-geRxNever could use anything but slackware for longer than 10 days :)
21:53.03Gin-geRxWell, I do love convenient desktop as well.
21:53.11CoreDump|homeheh my first linux was slack
21:53.23CoreDump|homeinstalled from floppy =)
21:53.24Gin-geRxBut I don't want it to take over my computer :)
21:53.31Gin-geRxYes, that was it :)))
21:53.40Gin-geRxboot/root/a*/n*/x* :-)
21:53.56CoreDump|homeindeed!
21:53.57Gin-geRxdon't really remember the rest.
21:54.05Gin-geRxap, I think tcl ;)
21:54.13CoreDump|homei did that as a total linux n00b
21:54.33CoreDump|homeand it sucked :)
21:55.01Gin-geRxMe too. But I've been almost n00b to DOS as well. I just moved from pdp-11 machines ;)
21:55.55CoreDump|homesheesh, never even seen a pdp
21:56.07Gin-geRxWell, I started with punchcards! :)
21:56.56Gin-geRxI wasn't working with punchcards for a long, though. I moved to Russian pdp clones real soon.
21:57.17CoreDump|homewell, what were pdp's using?
21:57.35Gin-geRxwhat do you mean? The OS? RT-11 and derivatives.
21:57.43Gin-geRxand RSX
21:57.49CoreDump|homeas storage I mean?
21:57.51Gin-geRxBut I was sticking to RT-11 family.
21:57.52Gin-geRxAh
21:58.08Gin-geRxwell, punchtapes, magnetic tapes and even disks.
21:58.16Gin-geRxYou know these 2.9MB huge monsters.
21:58.29Gin-geRxand 29MB made of 10 2.9MB ones.
21:58.39CoreDump|homehehe
21:58.50simcop2387grr, i'm having dhcp problems with busybox 1.00 and opie, /etc/resolv.conf is setup as a link to /var/run/resolv.conf which doesn't exist
21:59.23Gin-geRxpunchtapes were fun. Not very convenient though.
21:59.40CoreDump|homesimcop2387: well, that sounds famliar
21:59.53Gin-geRxBut then there was an alternative - entering programs using switches on the front panel.
22:00.12CoreDump|homerm resolv.conf symlink and restart DHCP
22:00.28Gin-geRx(use it to enter bootstrap loader)
22:00.48CoreDump|homeI've heard tales about something like that
22:00.55CoreDump|homemay I ask how old you are?
22:01.13Gin-geRxSurprise - 32 (hopefully 33 in 3 days if I'm still alive).
22:01.39Gin-geRxBut I'm lucky - Russia was somewhat behind in technology when I started, so I got to go all the way
22:01.45CoreDump|homeahhh
22:02.06CoreDump|homewell, I guess "luck" is relative hehe
22:02.40Gin-geRxWell, it is luck, I think. Going all the way surely does help to understand things. Much better than starting to click with one-button-mouse.
22:03.28CoreDump|hometre
22:03.33CoreDump|hometrue
22:04.12*** join/#openzaurus darkschneider (n=gab@213-140-6-96.ip.fastwebnet.it)
22:04.13Gin-geRxI wonder why when they teach math they start with ancient math, but not when it comes to computing.
22:04.45CoreDump|homebecause youre not going to run into such an old beast these days
22:05.05Gin-geRxThat is a problem, in fact.
22:05.42Gin-geRxBecause people lack understanding why things are made this way and not any other.
22:06.50Gin-geRxBesides, it's really shame that people have no idea what 012737 000060 177566 stands for :)
22:07.00Gin-geRxAnd can't speak octal fluently :)
22:07.35CoreDump|homeit's a bootstrap
22:07.54Gin-geRxno, it's output of '@' character to console :)
22:08.17CoreDump|homehuh
22:08.28Gin-geRxAnd people can't appreciate the beauty of commands like 'inc #1' ;-)
22:10.39Gin-geRxAnd isn't pdp coder :))
22:10.54Gin-geRxI am not the latter as well nowadays. But I still love that monster ;-)
22:11.54CoreDump|homei think i prefer my laptop heh
22:12.15Gin-geRxyou don't know what love is! :)
22:12.34Gin-geRxYou're material, selfish, and... contemporary! ;-)
22:12.45CoreDump|homeoh I _love_ to hack my Z =)
22:13.10Gin-geRxOh well.. Hope I will come to love it as well.
22:15.14CoreDump|homethe 3100 is a very nice machine
22:15.30Gin-geRxYup. I like it a lot.
22:15.49Gin-geRxWish I could go for OZ and cacko at the same time :)
22:16.03Gin-geRxMaybe once I get used to internals I will find a compromize.
