19:31.18jnchello
19:31.37bubakid like to know
19:31.59bubaka) there is no 2.4 kernel in 3.5.4.1-alpha, right?
19:32.14CoreDump|homeright
19:32.41bubakb) i also bought sharp rh-cexxx remote for music player, probably -- it wont work with oz?
19:33.50CoreDump|homecorrect
19:33.55bubak#gpe
19:34.06bubakthanks for answers!
19:34.16CoreDump|homeyou're welcome =)
19:34.27alan|laptopgentlement, do you think a 4,8 charger would charge my c7x0 ?
19:35.06jncbubak: the remote emits keycodes.  if using GPE, you could use xmodmap to remap those keycodes to other symbols
19:35.19CoreDump|homepossibly, yes. but i'll use a larger current which may or may not damage your device
19:35.51CoreDump|homejnc: to my knowledge you'd need a driver for that
19:35.55jncoh?

19:36.18jncit's been a long time since i worked on keymaps
19:36.20jncyeah
19:36.27polyonymousdoes Cxx00 have microphone? Not at all or is it available with this remote or s something?
19:36.30jncbubak: how do you like your C3200?
19:36.32CoreDump|homeit doesn't work for him w/ 2.6
19:36.52jncpolyonymous: it has *either* microphone -or- headphone output
19:37.00jncnot built in that i know of
19:37.11polyonymousAha. Some special mike?
19:37.23polyonymousNot that I really need it, but just wondering.
19:37.25jncstandard electret mic, i think
19:37.53polyonymousHow does it know if it's mic or phones that is plugged in?
19:37.56jncbubak: i've got a C3000, and an C3100.  was thinking about selling the C3000 to get the C3200
19:38.30jncpolyonymous: same way any 6.1ch desktop pci sound card does, i suppose
19:38.32polyonymousjnc, I bought 3100 a month before 3200 came out for the same price :( But after all 2G is not a big deal.
19:38.41polyonymousjnc, Ah, I didn't know they do :)
19:38.54bubakjnc: may i help you somehow?

19:40.54jncCoreDump|home: i'm unhappy with both Opie and GPE for 3.5.4.1test
19:41.14jncthe nail in a coffin for my dissatisfaction is that suspend does not work
19:41.31CoreDump|homereally? ouch
19:41.58jncthough RP assures me that suspend works on his C3000, and that it is only my C3000 which is not working, i am worried that this indicates things are going on that may harm other hardware
19:42.06bubaki think its not worth to exchange c3100 for c3200 for jsut a 2G
19:42.12bubakof hdd
19:42.14jncbubak: okay
19:42.18JustinPjnc: the remote only emits keycodes with 2.4 kernel
19:42.24jncJustinP: oh, bugger
19:42.27jncJustinP: good to know
19:42.34JustinPjnc: the remote doesn't work yet with 2.6
19:42.43jncJustinP: would you have it emit keycodes, or register as an input device?
19:42.52JustinPbubak: yeah, I'm the "expert" because I'm th eonly one here who has one of the remotes....except for you now ;-)
19:43.05JustinPjnc: RP would have it register an input device
19:43.10JustinPjnc: it actually already does
19:43.25jncdoes it generate info?   i.e. could this be done in userspace...
19:43.29JustinPjnc: it just doesn't work.....haven't had time to try to delve into the max1111 code....
19:43.36jncoh
19:43.50JustinPjnc: it should be able to generate a single event for all of the buttons, yes (I can't differentiate them)
19:44.10alan|laptopa friend of mine told me he could build a system that would provide 4,8 volt for 10800A !!! do you think this could be used with a zaurus ? as an external charger, i mean...
19:44.11JustinPbubak: I don't suppose you're a hardware or kernel expert?
19:44.49jncalan|laptop: ten thousand eight hundred ampres.
19:44.54jncare you sure?
19:45.02CoreDump|homeAh
19:45.10CoreDump|homehe means Ah
19:45.13alan|laptopma, sorry
19:45.16JustinPalan|laptop: are you talking about a portable "charger"?
19:45.18CoreDump|homemaeven
19:45.23alan|laptopJustinP, yep
19:45.28JustinPalan|laptop: I bought a portable battery which has switchable voltages
19:45.40JustinPalan|laptop: and switchable ends
19:46.07bubakJustinP: im not, i would describe myself as advanced linux user :) (just use computers for everyday work with a bit of programming in languages like java and python)
19:46.16JustinPjnc: FWIW 2.6 seems to be acting a bit strangely on my Z as well as far as suspending....like dying in a few days when 2.4 used to stay suspended forever
19:46.35jncJustinP: that is probably the same issue i have
19:46.44JustinPbubak: so kind of like me.... I've gotten the kernel driver "working" but it's not *really* working...
19:46.47jncmine is amplified, as it works up until about 3-4 min
19:46.48jncthen dies
19:47.04JustinPjnc: I don't have that problem. I'm talking abut battery dying
19:47.11alan|laptopJustinP, if i understand correctly, i shouldn't use such a charger...
19:47.14jncmaybe it's not the battery!
19:47.23CoreDump|homejnc: did you try that with a fresh image?
19:47.27jncCoreDump|home: yes
19:47.41jnc3.5.4.1test
19:47.43CoreDump|homew/o any inserted h/w?
19:47.51jnccorrect
19:48.01jncthe SharpROM works perfectly on the same hardware
19:48.07jnci had verified that recently
19:48.09CoreDump|home:(
19:48.32jncJustinP: try that same process with AC adapter in
19:48.37jncJustinP: see if it still dies?
19:49.03jnci have to unplug all power from the C3000 when suspend crashes like this, and hit the reset button
19:49.11jncsimply hitting the reset button does not work
19:49.22JustinPjnc: this is a few days in my backpack causes it to eat the entire battery...I can't reset, the battery is dead
19:49.37jncJustinP: are you sure the battery is dead though
19:51.34jncremote schem => http://home.arcor.de/relei2004/zaurusfernb.html
19:51.46JustinPthe remote scheme doesn't help me
19:52.21JustinPyes, I'm pretty sure the battery is dead. Removing the battery and putting it back doesn't let it come back on. I have to charge it for a few minutes before it come sup
19:52.28JustinPthen again my Z just came back up fine
19:52.42JustinPprobably my backpack is turning on my Z and it dies like that ;-)
19:52.50jncoh
19:53.02jncdid you try the reset button after removing all power?
19:53.22jncmine it is not enough to remove all power after a crash
19:53.32jncit has to be removed of all power, and the reset button
19:54.29JustinPyeah i think this is my fault.....
19:54.45jnc:(
19:55.09jnci need suspend to work if i'm going to use OZ instead of SharpROM
19:55.31jnci've made a list of things in 3.5.4.1test that seem like bugs
19:55.57jncthe time applet crashed during opie first start, leaving the PDA unusable
19:56.15jncthe 'shutdown -r now' behavior results in power off
19:56.24JustinPyes, reboot doesn't reboot
19:56.32JustinPRP knows and doesn't see it as a big bug
19:57.14jnchmm
19:57.32jncit's not right for a releasable image IMO
19:57.42jncif i tell the computer to reboot, it should reboot.
19:57.56JustinPyou shouldn't be rebooting a PDA anyway....and it's not that big of a problem
19:58.00JustinPjust press the power button
19:58.13jnci would if i could suspend reliably, man

20:06.17RPjnc: reboot does reboot but requires a button press. Get over it.
20:07.24jncit is very minor, yes, but the point is that "reboot" actually shuts down
20:07.37jnc"reboot" would implicate that it's going to be booting again.
20:07.52JustinPjnc: semantics
20:07.53RPjnc: It does not make the image unreleasable
20:08.15jncokay but then, how would someone actually reboot?
20:08.36AlexTeI would like to display japanese fonts, what package do you recommend ? Tried qte-font-japanese-230, did not help
20:09.16JustinPjnc: press the power button.....
20:09.23jncwithout pressing the power button
20:10.02RPjnc: I'm not saying anything further on the issue. Please never mention it to me again as I don't want to know.
20:10.03jncthat's fine
20:10.36jncbut it's a missing feature, and other features are misnamed, and it all kind of bothers me that reboot doesn't reboot, and shutdown shuts down but doesn't turn off the device (like i would tend to want shutdown to do on anything modern)
20:10.55JustinPjnc: Zaurii don't shutdown
20:11.14jncJustinP: mine does, i do "reboot" and the OK+Power button combo works
20:11.19RPJustinP: Its no good, he doesn't listen. I've tried to explain this
20:11.20jncthat's pretty well shut down for me
20:11.35JustinPOK + Power?
20:11.39jncyeah to get to the flash menu
20:11.46jncthe device has to be actually off for that to work
20:12.23RPbut then what the heck do I know about Zaurus hardware...
20:12.42jncis that my device only?
20:13.13jncJustinP: what does yours do when using "shutdown -r now" ?
20:13.23jnccan you use OK+Power button after that
20:17.38JustinPjnc: I'll try it
20:18.28JustinPjnc: not that it will prove anything
20:18.43JustinPjnc: it just means it's in "shutdown" mode. The Zaurii never power off unless you pull power
20:19.34JustinPyep, OK+power starts the flash menu...that just meant that RP did a great job making the Z "shutdown"
20:19.37JustinPRP: nice work :-)
20:23.15RPPersonally, I prefer this behaviour...

21:00.18jnco_O  
21:00.31jncJustinP you just confirmed that the C3xxx does indeed shut down.
21:00.46CoreDump|homesigh
21:00.55CoreDump|homejnc, they never really shut down
21:01.12jncwhat does that mean
21:01.58CoreDump|homeas RP and JustinP tried to explain you, an SL-Cxxxx never "halts". The mainboard is never really powered off
21:02.13CoreDump|homeonly if you pull the battery
21:03.09jnci consider when the device responds to firmware features like Power + OK, that it is as shut down as it will get
21:03.41jncCoreDump|home: x86 still draws power in "off" mode
21:04.00jnci mean, that is considered halted yah?
21:04.04CoreDump|homeyep, but not the CPU, RAM etc
21:04.21CoreDump|homeyes it is, the PC inside that x86 is w/o power
21:04.46CoreDump|homethe only thing powered is a part of the AC / DC logic to power on the machine
21:04.54jncso the pxa270 is powered when OK+Power firmware feature works
21:04.58jncthat is what you're saying?
21:05.32CoreDump|homewhat I say is that you can not know the conditions for the firmware menu to show up
21:05.43CoreDump|homethis is done in hardware and firmware
21:06.04jncif the firmware menu is working, i'd presume that is the definition of "off" or "shut down"
21:06.12jncif it still draws power or not, what do i know
21:06.15jnci don't
21:06.27jnca lot of devices draw power when they are off
21:06.41jnchow is that such a problem when i say the device is shut down
21:06.43CoreDump|homewell, you could just measure if your Z draws juice off the battery when "halted"
21:06.55JustinPbut you said earlier that shutdown didn't work....
21:07.14CoreDump|homegotta use a very precise instrument for that tho
21:07.17jnc"shutdown -h now" does not enter a mode where Power+OK will work
21:07.53polyonymousisn't there a difference between shutdown and poweroff?
21:07.54jncand "shutdown -r now" does not reboot the device
21:07.59jncyea
21:08.34jncso technically the "shutdown -h" is working as it should be, but it would be nice to make it also power off the device as i described (Power+OK feature working)
21:09.03polyonymousI mean, what shutdown does is 'halt'.
21:09.07jncthe "shutdown -r" is non-working.   the hardware is capable of a real reboot, why not have the device do that
21:09.14polyonymousreboot does what poweroff should do
21:09.21jncyeah
21:09.22polyonymousand poweroff does halting.
21:09.32polyonymousNot a big deal once you remember what does what :)
21:09.50CoreDump|homejnc: jesus, RP admitted that this is a bug. A _very_ minor one at that.
21:10.10CoreDump|homeand the bug has the status "WONTFIX" currently
21:10.15polyonymousthat's it. Bug that definitely doesn't deserve high priority.
21:10.30polyonymousAnd this is, on the other hand, wrong status for the bug :)
21:11.00polyonymousI'd rather tag it as "never do today what you can postpone till tomorrow"
21:11.31CoreDump|homehis ToDo list is rather full :) and patches are of course welcome hehe
21:11.34jncfeature for feature, the real reboot is something that exists in SharpROM which is not possible in oz.
21:11.56jncso is it a bug, or is this the way everyone wants it to be
21:12.17CoreDump|homeI take a non-rebooting kernel 2.6 over a rebooting pile of rubbish any day hehe
21:12.20polyonymousCoreDump|home, I don't think having this bug on todo list should make it a heavy burden, especially if you know you're not going to resolve it any soon :)
21:12.32polyonymousjnc, It's a "feature" :)
21:12.35jncoh
21:12.53jncit's not said anywhere that this is what is intended
21:13.01jnci ask about it, and people say that it is low-priority
21:13.10CoreDump|homewhich it is
21:13.11jncno one mentioned to me if it was something that should be improved
21:13.22jncthey just say "i don't want to talk about it"
21:13.31jncwhich is not helpful :/
21:13.57polyonymousjnc, is it really your biggest problem?
21:14.08jncat the moment, yes
21:14.29jncmy C3000 and OZ 3.5.4.1test do not successfully suspend/resume reliably
21:14.31polyonymousWell, jnc, then you're the happiest Z user so you should just keep your mous shut with happiness :)
21:14.38jncso i would have to shut down my Z everytime i am not using it
21:14.59polyonymousjnc, What exactly failes with suspend/resume cycle?
21:14.59CoreDump|homethe suspend / resume thingy has nothing to to with it now rebooting
21:15.19CoreDump|homebecause suspend/resume works perfectly fine on akita
21:15.23polyonymousAnd, jnc if you have to shut it down why not use reboot?
21:15.31jncbecause the reboot is for rebooting
21:15.44polyonymousjnc, but you wanted to shut if down, not reboot!
21:15.52jncexactly
21:16.04polyonymousso, use reboot. Or do you refuse it use it because of the name?
21:16.10jncwhy the heck am i telling my Z to reboot, when i want it to shut down
21:16.13jncthat makes no sense
21:16.27polyonymousYou're more german than any german on this channel I know :)
21:16.48CoreDump|homehey
21:17.03jncwell it sounds like a bug, or at the least undocumented difference compared to what is expected
21:17.20polyonymousjnc, we've agreed on that already, haven't we?
21:17.31jncwell, should this be improved, or documented
21:18.10jncon SharpROM, reboot reboots the device, shutdown halts the device.
21:18.17jncthat makes sense to me
21:18.31polyonymousCoreDump|home, This doesn't have anything to do with godwins law. It was established by say Mark Twain way before the war.
21:19.03polyonymousjnc, and until it's not improved or documented you refuse to use it?
21:19.28jncno, i want to know if my hardware is broken
21:19.41jncJustinP confirms that my hardware works the same as his
21:19.51polyonymousWhich means it is likely not broken.
21:19.58hrw|tvpolyonymous: your last patches to opie - will look at them but do not know when
21:20.01jncnow i'm wondering if this can be improved, or if i should leave it alone
21:20.14jncand so far people are just acting like they are angry at me for bringing the idea up
21:20.39polyonymoushrw|tv, I'm glad to hear it. But does it mean nobody else but you works on these parts of opie?
21:20.54jncit's a fairly simple thing i could spend some time on.   so far people won't even talk to me about it without being upset
21:21.04hrw|tvpolyonymous: qt/e enviroments are dying
21:21.07polyonymousjnc, I think people get angry at you when you're going over and over again about it.
21:21.35polyonymoushrw|tv, that's what I meant... pity there's no adequate replacement yet...
21:22.41jncokay say in documentation,  if i say "reboot your zaurus"  do i mean "shutdown using reboot and hit power button to boot again" or do i mean "reboot and reference the release notes to find out what that means"
21:23.08jncit should be simple but this is a source of confusion, because reboot does not reboot, and shutdown merely halts with no powerdown
21:23.19polyonymousMaybe someone should put it to the FAQ?
21:23.35jncyeah that's all i'm talking about
21:23.44polyonymousBut, jnc, do YOU know how to shutdown your Z?
21:24.06jncapparently, using 'reboot' is the undocumented way to shutdown the Z
21:24.19polyonymousjnc, so the answer is "yes"?
21:24.22jnci was wondering if my Z was broken, since this wasn't expected
21:24.27jncit doesn't appear to be
21:24.31jncnot a big deal then
21:24.44jnci wish i could reboot though
21:24.48polyonymousAnd now you know it's not broken and the answer is yes, using reboot is the way to shut it down, right?
21:25.27jncyeah.  i don't see how this helps OE to berate me for not assuming things
21:25.40jncwho would document such things (or maybe i could?)
21:26.06RPjnc: Your hardware is not broken and most devices (expect the c700/c750) sow the same behaviour
21:26.12jncoh
21:26.13polyonymousSo, you know how to shut it down and you refuse to use reboot to shut it down because it'snot in the docs?
21:26.15jnc:)
21:26.39RPjnc: By the time I explained the subtle hardware issues involved for reboot vs "shutdown" I could probably fix the problem :-/
21:27.08jncpolyonymous: i don't mind using reboot to shut it down, it just seems really, very weird.  at the very least some reference to this behavior would be important to have in a release note
21:27.45polyonymousYou show some inconsistency in your approach. Previously you said you won't do that because it's reboot and not shutdown.
21:28.25jncRP: i'm sorry to bother, mate.    it's just like you are saying, not high on the hitlist.  i'm confused because i want to automate the shutdown as a workaround until suspend/resume gets attention, so i can use OZ and test other things
21:28.38jncpolyonymous: i asked why would i
21:28.57jncpolyonymous: to which you ignored and went on some tangent.  anyways, not important
21:29.27RPjnc: Basically, for now, tell the device to reboot as that give the behaviour you desire
21:29.47jncokay.  that's pretty safe?
21:29.57polyonymouspolyonymous: And, jnc if you have to shut it down why not use reboot? jnc: because the reboot is for rebooting
21:30.14jncyeah
21:30.41polyonymousI didn't know it means "why would I?". I'm learning new stuff every day.
21:30.46jncevery other piece of hardware in my 10+ years of computer use has the capability to reboot itself when issued the command to reboot.
21:30.50jncthat's what i was meaning
21:31.05CoreDump|homewhy can't you just give it a rest?
21:31.11jncthe word reboot means, the device resets itself and comes back up
21:31.45CoreDump|homeand we told you over and over and _over_ again that it is a bug. What else is there to say?
21:31.46polyonymousThanks for letting everyone know.
21:32.04jncmeanies, heh.
21:38.05RPjnc: We know its a bug. One of these days I might fix it. I also take patches. What more can I say?
21:39.24jncRP: i was concerned that my Z was somehow broken, and it's been established that it's not.  also helpful to know that it is a bug which would be considered to be fixed if there are patches.
21:40.11jnci'm not concerned bout it still
21:40.24jncguys, let it go.   i was worried that my Z was broken
21:41.05jncno one i have heard of has reported suspend/resume issues that are repeatable
21:41.16jnci mean, on cxx00
21:41.38polyonymousjnc, what does your Z do when you resume/
21:41.44jncnothing
21:41.55polyonymousdoesn't power on?
21:42.01jnci can suspend, and resume,  but if the device is suspended longer than 3 min there is nothing
21:42.16polyonymousnothing as in no power on?
21:42.24jncyeah.   i went through with RP on a debugging session, and it appears that the RAM gets hosed
21:42.29jncbut not sure about that even
21:42.43jnci used a serial cable and a kernel patch suggested by RP to output debug info
21:42.55polyonymousSo this is what you should be concerned about and think if your Z is somehow misbehaves, not reboot/shutdown issue.
21:43.12jncdon't i know it :)
21:43.39jncRP is a busy guy though, i don't expect suspend/resume to be given attention soon
21:43.40polyonymousThen I want to have a tea.
21:43.59polyonymousjnc, isn't that exactly what people were telling you for ages?

21:45.14jncif suspend/resume isn't working, i would like to at least be able to use my zaurus with OZ.  this makes shutdown/reboot my focus for the time being.
21:46.49polyonymousjnc, maybe you should put some wrapper scripts that will change shutdown/reboot behaviour? :)
21:46.58jnchmm
21:47.21jncwell, would i want to fix this kernel side, or establish the current behavior as correct, and hack around it
21:48.13jncalso, what are the capabilities of other Z's?  RP mentioend the c7x0 as being exceptions
21:48.20jncwhat is the difference of those
21:48.58polyonymousjnc, I don't know the answer and wouldn't bother RP with those question as he might fix the problem instead of answering.
21:50.15jnci don't have to bother RP with it
21:50.37jnci can ask people what their dog is, and how it behaves :)
21:51.14RPjnc: The differences are subtle and most people don't even realise there are differences
21:51.25RPI only saw them with a 760 and 700 side by side
21:51.45jncis the end result similar?   or is end result different
21:52.24jncmy definition of "off" being that maybe device still draws power, but will do whatever firmware functions the Zaurii tend to do with key combinations
21:54.02jnci want to put together a doc which describes what to expect, where different from SharpROM.  I am using both systems (SharpROM / OZ), it is not a problem for me to do this for cxx00 at least
