01:19.01Eddyanoyone here
01:19.03Eddy?
01:21.44JustinPsometimes
01:25.17EddyHey is there a way to create some kind of overlay filesystem on a Zaurus?
01:25.28Eddythat you know of
01:26.11JustinPoverlay?
01:26.34JustinPunionfs is IIRC supposed to do that kind of thing, but I know nothing about it except that it wasn't stable...
01:31.47Eddyyeah
01:32.07EddyI was wanting to install some ipkg's but I don't have enough space on /
01:32.26EddyI was hoping I could install it to some kind of unionfs or something like that
01:32.31Eddyand overlay it over root
01:33.02JustinPyou can just install to a card
01:33.09JustinPipkg install -d sd package
01:33.21Eddy-d sd?
01:33.25JustinPor...my favorite option...move root to an SD card
01:33.26Eddyit knows what that means?
01:33.32JustinPipkg help
01:33.43Eddyyeah
01:33.45EddyI read about that
01:33.57Eddyit seemed kind of ambiguous to me
01:34.09Eddyis it just as fast running everything from SD?
01:34.19Eddyor root I mean
01:35.39JustinPdepend son your card and machine
01:35.42infinite-thats my question too
01:35.48JustinPbut it's always easier to deal with
01:35.55infinite-which is easier? :P
01:36.04JustinProot on a card
01:36.32EddyYou definetely get way more space
01:37.33infinite-nmmmm but which is faster
01:39.07Eddyor what might be a good idea is to put /usr/local on SD
01:40.06infinite-hey no  answer? :P
01:40.16Eddyare all the ipkg's compiled so they can be placed anywhere on the filesystem
01:40.18Eddy?
01:41.38JustinPit doesn't work that way
01:41.45JustinPyou can install it anywhere
01:41.52JustinPthen use ipkg-link to link the files to root
01:42.11Eddyah sweet thats how you're doing it
01:42.18EddyI didn't know about ipkg-link
01:43.21infinite-um
01:43.30infinite-silly question from a newbie
01:43.34JustinPinfinite-: I said earlier it depend son your card and machine
01:43.37infinite-but how hard is openzaurus to use?
01:43.44infinite-JustinP ok ;)
01:43.47JustinPummmm...depends on what you do
01:44.10infinite-well using cacko now but curious... what im doing.. internet & office mostly:)
01:44.19infinite-internet, both bt and wlan
01:45.54JustinPyou can try oz
01:46.00JustinPit can do all that
01:46.08JustinPbut it's not as user friendly as the Sharp ROM
01:48.02infinite-ive never used the sharp rom
01:48.03infinite-only cacko
01:48.24infinite-i have no wishes to try and make the sharp rom english
01:48.40infinite-(i know what process is like, enough of that on my sigmarion 3)
01:48.47infinite-so..
01:49.01infinite-what is confusing me is the several versions of openzaurusd
01:49.02infinite-:O
01:51.35EddyI have packages in a subfolder of my SD card call 'newipk' how do I ipkg-link them?
01:51.57JustinPinstall them to a card, then use ipkg-link mount sd
01:51.59JustinPor similar
01:52.24Eddywill that link everything on the card or something?
01:52.40Eddydoes it have to be a clean card?
01:53.16Eddyor in a root directory
01:53.16JustinPneeds to be ext2
01:53.26JustinPand you have to *install* them to the card first
01:53.38EddyI guess I can make a loopback
01:53.41Eddyon the card
01:54.03JustinPyep
01:54.30Eddyso it has to be its own filesystem, it can't just be a subfolder in my home directory?
01:55.44JustinPcan be anywhere
01:55.56JustinPbut you have to set it up in /etc/ipkg.conf
01:56.13Eddyman I wish man was included
01:56.19Eddy:-p
01:56.31JustinPipkg help
01:56.54Eddyyeah but it doesn't tell you about ipkg.conf or ipkg-link
01:59.22JustinPyou've already complained about space....
01:59.26JustinPno room for man
01:59.38Eddyyeah
01:59.56Eddynot compaining though, just trying to work out a solution
02:00.46tanqok what is the largest compatibly microdrive with the zaurus 5000 series
02:00.47Eddyso do I add 'src localrepo file:///home/user/pkglist/' and put my packages there?
02:00.58JustinP*install*
02:01.39Eddysrc install file:///home/user/pkglist/ ?
02:02.51JustinPno....
02:02.59JustinPyou have to *install* the packages, not just put them there
02:03.15Eddyok, do I need the packages themselves after installed?
02:03.20JustinPno
02:03.30Eddyok so if I do this:
02:03.53Eddydpkg -d home *.ipk # In my directory with new packages
02:04.04EddyI mean ipkg
02:04.10JustinP-d localrepo
02:04.49Eddyin my ipkg.conf there is already a 'dest home /home/packages'
02:04.56Eddywouldn't that be where I would want to send it too?
02:05.41JustinPsure
02:06.11Eddyok so I do that and it installs it to /home/packages
02:06.22Eddythen do I just run ipkg-link add *.ipkg
02:09.29Eddyor just ipkg-link add /hom/packages
02:10.11Eddy<PROTECTED>
02:11.19JustinPipkg-link mount home
02:11.37Eddyeven though home is not a mount?
02:11.51Eddyis it just looking for one of the dests or something?
02:12.03kadosmy sl-6000 running 3.5.4 (pre release) loses wlan0 every time I suspend
02:12.15kadosis there some way I can force it to come back up properly?
02:12.46JustinPEddy: a dest of course
02:13.00Eddyok thanks
02:13.14JustinPkados: yes. donate an SL-6000 to a developer who can fix it :-|
02:14.29Eddyjustinp are you a dev?
02:15.14kadosJustinP: um ... ok ... so hopefully I'd get more than just that out of the deal
02:16.07kadosI'm all about sponsorship :-)
02:16.33JustinPheh
02:16.45EddyI'd say I'm a leach but I always tend to contribute code and patches of some sort to the different projects I work with at some point
02:16.46JustinPEddy: for some things. I'm not a hardware/kernel hacker really, though
02:16.52Eddyit keeps me in the ethical blue
02:17.53jncnot unlike microsoft donating billions to  charity
02:18.09kadoswhen I try to unload the usbcore module I get:
02:18.14kadosusbcore: Device or resource busy
02:18.26jnckados: yeaah.  
02:18.28Eddyjeez I figured that was the open source way, what do I know though :-P
02:18.35jnckados: is usbdcore involved?
02:18.36kados(someone on this channel recommended that i unload usbcore )
02:18.57kadoswell ... i think on the sl-6000 usbcore manages the wlan0 device
02:19.08jncoh!
02:19.24jncall pre-requisite modules need to be unloaded first
02:19.31kadosinteresting
02:19.35jncs/pre-requisite/dependent/
02:19.38kadosgot it up
02:19.45JustinPlsmod
02:20.10jnclsmod | grep usbcore
02:20.12kadosI rmmoded prism2_usb and p80211
02:20.14jncshould show you the shortlist
02:20.16jncyeah
02:20.22kadosand then did ifup wlan0 and it came back up
02:20.33kadosshould I add those commands to the 'interfaces' file?
02:20.37jncit may be that the firmware gets confused
02:20.50jncyou could.   i think that would be a sort of a hack, but it should _work_
02:21.15Eddyhey thanks for the help
02:21.19kadoswhere is the best place to add that so that when the z comes out of suspend it brings wlan0 back up?
02:21.22Eddygot it going now
02:21.23jncwhat i might instead do though is make a custom script that checks what state things are in, and acts. then trigger the script
02:21.45EddyI'll go report my progress to my boss Bill Gates now
02:21.51Eddy:-P
02:21.54jnchehehe
02:21.58jnccheers, Eddy
02:22.07Eddylater
02:22.19kadosjnc: is there a way to add scripts to the list of processes run after suspend ends?
02:22.33jnci don't think that's something i would know about
02:22.34kadosie when it comes out of suspend (been a long day)
02:22.38kadosk
02:22.41kadosanyone know?
02:22.58jncyou might just make it easier to bring down / up the interface
02:23.12jncit's not too bad to bring the interface down and then back on again
02:23.20JustinPapmd
02:23.34kadoscould I add a menu item somehow to run my little script?
02:23.47jncopie/gpe?
02:23.48kadosif so, how would I go about doing that?
02:23.50kadosopie
02:25.48jnchmm... opie launchers.  don't know.,
02:26.01JustinPsimple, just add a file to the menu...
02:26.08JustinPdon't remember where it is offhand, though
