02:33.19punk-assusing linux-sl5500-20030509-rom3_10.tar.bz2 and sound-2.4.18r2.patch, I get http://openzaurus.pastebin.com/712820
02:33.51punk-assalso does anyone know why there is a hunk of binary in cacko.patch?
02:34.20punk-assthe linux/drivers/s390/block/dasd.c section of it
02:35.17dhrIs that IBM mainframe jumk?  System/390?  "DASD" is IBM-speak for "disk drive".
02:35.33punk-assyeah it doesn't apply to me, but it is still odd
02:35.38hobbsseems that way. Why would cacko.patch even be affecting S390 code? ;)
02:35.56punk-assand makes me wonder about the integrity of the rest of the patch
02:37.31hobbspunk-ass: I'm at work right now, but I'm on my way out the door -- I've got an xcompile setup at home and some familiarity with kernel stuff, so I'll take a look if you're planning to be around in half an hour-ish
02:37.42punk-asshobbs: yes, thanks
02:38.06hobbsactually I think I'm interested in this patch ;)
02:40.00punk-assi'm curious if it makes aumix work with it
02:40.27punk-assi'm not really interested in running opie or GPE
02:40.47punk-assbut I wouldn't know from looking at it, don't know enough C

03:16.41hobbshello simcopter.
03:17.32punk-asshobbs: I got the patches from http://ewi546.ewi.utwente.nl/OE/other_scms/hg/org.openembedded.dev/packages/linux/openzaurus-sa-2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix20030509/
03:17.39punk-assbtw there is buzzer stuff in there
03:18.14hobbspunk-ass: I expect that the sound patch originated at http://www2.informatik.hu-berlin.de/~tkunze/zaurus/
03:24.43hobbspunk-ass: I suspect that the best method of attacking the problem would be to use the recommended OE build procedure, with the one particular line that reenables the sound patch uncommented
03:24.58hobbspunk-ass: and see if it still barfs that way
03:26.46hobbspunk-ass: there is definitely something out there with that cacko patch, but I guess it's harmless, since it's in a completely different arch, and lots of people are running the kernel that built from it ;)
03:29.52punk-asshobbs: are you going to use the OE build procedure?
03:30.01punk-assI don't have that stuff installed
03:30.04punk-assjust arm gcc
03:30.08hobbspunk-ass: yeah. But it might take me a good while ;)
03:30.13punk-assok np
03:30.54hobbsI tarred up my OE tree to save space, so step one is untarring it :)
03:31.41punk-assdo you know much about device drivers in the "current" collie kernel?
03:31.47punk-assi'm using an older one right now
03:32.05punk-assand it seems like just about everything is non-standard
03:32.18punk-asslike gpm can't see the touchscreen as a mouse
03:32.25punk-assaumix can't touch the mixer
03:32.26punk-assetc
03:32.44hobbspunk-ass: yeah, that's about the state of things. Design improvements in 2.6 have let more things use "standard" interfaces, but whether 2.6 will ever come to collie is very questionable.
03:33.48hobbsand no, I'm not _deeply_ familiar. I actually had a collie about 4 years ago, broke it, and just got one again a week ago
03:33.55hobbsso I've been out of the loop but getting back in ;)
03:34.32punk-assprobably not, i'd guess
03:34.34punk-ass2.6
03:35.00punk-assits pretty pointless without sd
03:35.02punk-asshttp://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=19269
03:35.42hobbsNow that I've been playing with the collie again and remembering how cool having a Zaurus is, I also notice how limited it is, and I'm thinking seriously about trading up for an akita
03:35.59punk-assscreen?
03:36.11hobbshmm?
03:36.22punk-asswhat about it is too limited for you?
03:37.17hobbsprocessor, screen, drivers, available software (pdaxrom looks nice but is only produced for clamshell models), bunch of things
03:37.26hobbsplus I think I'd like the form factor.
03:38.21punk-assyeah I originally wanted a clamshell but I am happy with the 5500 form factor now
03:38.33punk-assI like how it looks like a normal pda with the keyboard hidden
03:39.00punk-assprocessor is fine for me though, playing oggs and mp3s only uses 20% cpu

03:39.07punk-assmore ram would be nice, but they are all 64MB
03:39.15hobbsIf I can sell my collie to someone, along with a couple memory cards and this cable I got for it, I think I can get enough together to get an akita without breaking the bank

03:47.06punk-assakita is nice, I keep looking at them
03:47.19punk-assbut don't feel like spending $400
03:47.57punk-ass5500 is limited, but you get the most for what you pay
03:53.56hobbspunk-ass: okay, giving the build a spin. Hopefully it just does it without trying to drag anything else in
03:54.18hobbsfollowed the special kernel-building instructions, and I've done "bitbake collie-kernel-64-0"
03:56.04punk-asshmm, i'm guessing it will work
03:56.15punk-assbut we will see
03:56.32CoreDump|afkshould work just fine
03:56.52hobbsCoreDump|afk: yeah, my musing was just about how long I'll be waiting for it :)
03:57.04CoreDump|afk=)
03:57.13hobbshooray for wrong instructions
03:57.13punk-assI wonder why it will be different than it was for me though
03:57.24punk-assunless I am missing another patch
03:58.23hobbsthe howto I was reading said to use ASSUME_PROVIDED = ... and then after several minutes of grinding bitbake tells me that I really wanted ASSUME_PROVIDED +=
03:58.50CoreDump|afkhobbs: heh, that was changed only recently
03:59.22CoreDump|afkand at first you didn't get that warning. Boy was that a bitch to find
03:59.58hobbsat least the chugging goes faster this time 'cause the files are all in RAM :)
04:01.58punk-assalso wondering why -mtune=strongarm1100 is used
04:02.02hobbsCoreDump|afk: you were doing this stuff 3-4 years ago, right?
04:02.07hobbspunk-ass: why not?
04:02.10punk-asswouldn't -mtune=strongarm1110 be better?
04:02.37hobbsmight be if that was one of the choices :)
04:02.41CoreDump|afkhmm not 4yrs ago, no. I only became ative when OE came around
04:02.58hobbsCoreDump|afk: alright. That's just about the time that I crushed my first Z
04:04.24punk-assit is a choice, just edit arch/arm/Makefile
04:04.43punk-assright?
04:04.59punk-assi'm compiling a kernel right now, if it works I will try -mtune=strongarm1110
04:05.28hobbspunk-ass: no, because gcc doesn't have a spec file named "strongarm1110"
04:05.45hobbsit has strongarm, strongarm110, and strongarm1100
04:06.10punk-assmine does, unless it is just an alias for strongarm1100
04:06.15CoreDump|afkRP: I'm looking at locomo again. On a PC-type keyboard, after pressing Num_Lock, the Numlock keys return different keycodes than when Num_Lock is off. This doesn't work w/ locomo. Am I right to assume that the keycod switch is done with the kbd driver?
04:06.52hobbspunk-ass: anyway... I just hit the compile error, which means the patch must be out of date
04:06.59hobbspunk-ass: I'll see if it's within my skills to update it
04:07.04punk-assused it for compiling mplayer and it worked great
04:07.39punk-assah
04:08.28CoreDump|afksince the sound-patch breaks opie screen-tap & keyclick sounds it is a) disabled, and b) unmaintained. A Opie patch would be welcome I guess heh
04:08.46hobbspunk-ass: hmm... I think the problem might be a misuse of "static"
04:11.45hobbsactually it looks like mixer_unit and friends are just never declared if !MODULE
04:12.34hobbsnot 100% sure how to fix that, as there's presumably some reason why the declaration is inside that ifdef in the first place
04:12.49hobbsbut just removing the guards might work so long as you don't try to have more than one device (which is impossible anyway ;))

04:20.23punk-asspower outage
04:20.27hobbsfun
04:28.44punk-assah I guess only newer versions of gcc have -mtune=strongarm1110
04:29.38punk-ass3.3 was what I used with mplayer
04:34.35hobbspunk-ass: I had to nuke my tmp dir to convince OE that I was serious, so it's sitting here rebuilding some native stuff before I can find out whether my patch to the patch worked ;)
04:34.56punk-asscool
04:37.05punk-assdo you know where the 64-0 stuff is set?
04:37.25punk-assor where there might be any info on bootstrapping the collie in a non-oe environment? :)
04:38.18hobbsnot offhand. I know where it's set in the OE build procedure, but I'd need to do a little sleuthing to find out where that actually affects the kernel build
04:40.42punk-assI see Default kernel command string: "<see openzaurus-sa_*.bb file in OpenEmbedded metadata>"
04:40.48punk-assand suspect it might be there
04:41.17hobbspunk-ass: oh, it's pretty simple. If storage is 0, then CONFIG_MTD_MTDRAM_SA1100 is n; otherwise it's y and CONFIG_MTDRAM_TOTAL_SIZE gets the size, CONFIG_MTDRAM_ABS_POS gets the right address to keep it from going off the end of memory, and CONFIG_MTDRAM_ERASE_SIZE is 1
04:42.00hobbspunk-ass: http://sial.org/pbot/17159
04:42.58hobbsthat code expects $mem and $rd to have values, obviously
04:43.34hobbspunk-ass: the .bb file is right in the dir above where you got that patch, though
04:44.49punk-assnice, thanks

05:19.44punk-assim not really sure what it does, just saw it there
05:21.27hobbspunk-ass: I believe so
05:28.57hobbsnow it's building gcc. And I don't even know why
05:40.02hobbspunk-ass: I got that file to compile. But now the next one errors ;)
05:44.42punk-ass:)
05:44.49punk-assI just finished compiling
05:44.58punk-assall of the patches worked fine
05:45.04hobbshow's that?
05:45.08hobbsincluding the sound patch?
05:45.12punk-assdidn't use the logo or bluetooth ones though
05:45.19punk-assor sound of course
05:45.35punk-assjust testing out the rest for problems
05:45.39hobbspunk-ass: any chance you could make clean, tar up your tree, and send it to me? :)
05:46.08hobbspunk-ass: I need to move outside of the OE environment so that I can work on this patch without lots of pain, and if you already have a working tree ;)
05:46.15punk-asslet me kill my downloads
05:46.17hobbspunk-ass: if your bandwidth can't handle it, though, I understand
05:46.21punk-assnot sure how lagged I am
05:46.37punk-assI am on a modem :(
05:46.46punk-asswhat distro are you using?
05:46.47hobbspunk-ass: oh, that's not gonna work then

05:47.37punk-assand am running it in qemu
05:47.46punk-assso i'm using the native arm gcc
05:48.05hobbspunk-ass: gotcha
05:48.12hobbspunk-ass: can I just get your .config file then?
05:48.19punk-assif you want my qemu kernel and initrd that isn't a big deal
05:48.24punk-assok
05:48.34hobbsthat'll save me a little work anyway

06:08.26punk-asspretty much the same
06:14.05hobbspunk-ass: I'm giving the stock kernel a spin to make sure that I patched it up right and have the compilation procedure down

06:25.16jtdhow do you guys feel about pdaxrom?
06:25.18simcop2387syn-pda: mpeg2 150kbit video, mp2 64kbit audio using mplayer
06:25.33simcop2387i'm gonna try other players (specifically opie-mediaplayer later)
06:25.48hobbsjtd: I think it looks cool, but I don't have a clamshell device to try it on :)
06:25.53jtdit is apparently on 2.4.  but it is a buttload shinier and less buggy than OZ 3.5.4 for SL-5500, for whatever that's worth
06:26.00jtdhobbs: I feel your pain
06:26.18hobbsjtd: I think I'm going to get an akita next paycheck. But it depends on things
06:26.22simcop2387hobbs: mythtv recordings on a collie capable of fitting an hour on a 128mb cf card
06:26.39jtdshop at pricejapan.  they got it to me in *two days*.
06:26.48jtdnot to mention being super super cheap
06:26.53hobbsjtd: wow. Thanks for the recommendation
06:29.22jtdI'm thinking about trying 3.5.4.1, but not before I give pdaxrom a good try first
06:29.28hobbspunk-ass: it boots.
06:29.43jtdpdaxrom's package pool seems to be a good bit shallower than OZ's
06:29.48hobbspunk-ass: the boot scripts say that I'm a dangerous rebel because my version number doesn't match
06:30.03jtdbahahahaha
06:30.05punk-assnice
06:30.09punk-assthis is the stock kernel?
06:30.21jtdhey, I thought he was supposed to be the rebel punk guy
06:30.28hobbspunk-ass: it's the same set of patches as OE uses, just my own build.
06:33.17punk-assnot sure why, but I was worried there was some magic needed to bootstrap collie
06:33.36punk-assso it is nice to see how easy that was for you
06:34.00hobbspunk-ass: well there's a lot more that goes into it if you want to build a proper image and set of modules and everything
06:34.38punk-asswell i've been playing with qemu-system-arm lately
06:34.39hobbspunk-ass: but I'm not, I'm just replacing zImage and leaving the rest the same
06:35.04punk-assand build an initrd from scratch etc
06:35.10punk-assso that should be about the same I guess
06:40.59hobbspunk-ass: I got that sound driver compiling, but I don't quite expect it to _work_ at this point. It might though
06:41.19hobbspunk-ass: we'll know in a few.
06:42.42hobbsjtd: not bad. pricejapan's after-shipping price is about the same as some other places' before-shipping price.
06:43.37punk-assyeah from what ive seen you wont find it cheaper
06:43.59hobbspunk-ass: flashing. again.
06:44.21hobbsoh, for kexec ;)
06:45.50hobbsI fixed the version string so that it should be indistinguishible from the OZ kernel this time ;)
06:45.56hobbsand init won't call me names
06:50.48hobbspunk-ass: system boots, SD module still loads without any explosions
06:52.40jtdhobbs: are you testing the 2.6 SD on Collie?
06:53.03hobbsjtd: no, trying to get the "sound patch" for buzzer working again on 2.4
06:57.46simcop2387hobbs: sound patch?
06:57.49hobbspunk-ass: anyway, it compiles and the system works, but now _no_ sound of any sort
06:58.05hobbssimcop2387: for collie, to let you use the buzzer as a DSP device
06:58.16punk-assjtd: must have been spaced out, just noticed the rebel punk comment :)
06:58.42hobbssimcop2387: it used to be in OZ, but got backed out a while back, and hasn't been maintained
07:02.00punk-assit looks like i'll be fine without it, but if you do get it working please let me know
07:02.05punk-assim going to sleep soon

07:04.13hobbspunk-ass: yeah, it's interesting. Would help if I had someone to talk to who knew something about these two modules and how they're supposed to work
07:04.25hobbspunk-ass: right now I'm sort of guessing, and I think mostly wrong ;)
07:10.02punk-asshobbs: might want to ask in #oe
07:10.09punk-assa lot more people there
07:10.10hobbspunk-ass: I might have hit on something though. It looks like there were two drivers trying to use the same chip, and I might have found the right one to disable ;)
07:10.18punk-assand it is actually on topic for you since you are developing
07:13.54hobbspunk-ass: gonna give it one more try if you want to wait up

07:21.29punk-assnot that the buzzer is important, but it makes you wonder about 2.6
07:21.57simcop2387hobbs: cool if you get it working tell me it'd kick ass for tv
07:22.05simcop2387assuming it worked at all
07:22.22simcop2387wtf is blinkenlights anyway?
07:22.24hobbsstill no love
07:22.44punk-assi can't pageup (power went out), what was the problem opie had with it?
07:23.04hobbspunk-ass: you don't get the "standard" buzzer features like alarms or keyclick
07:23.38punk-assah ok, wasn't sure if it was more serious like crashing when those events happened
07:24.43hobbsI wouldn't expect so. I just think it's a loss of features, mostly because opie-alarm expects the buzzer to be there
07:25.28simcop2387i'd rather have the audio since opie-alarm doesn't work on collies since 3.5.2
07:25.57hobbsworked for me when I tested it, I think... but yeah, keyclicks and alarms don't interest me a whole lot either
07:26.14simcop2387hobbs: it won't work while suspended is the issue
07:26.24simcop2387something like that anyway
07:26.31hobbssimcop2387: maybe it's intermittent. I tested just that, and it did wake up
07:26.44hobbssimcop2387: but I know that recent OZ on collie has issues with suspend/resume all over the place ;)
07:27.18simcop2387are you booting of sd if you are then you'll have issues
07:27.28hobbsyeah
07:28.48jtdI seem to recall it wasn't long ago when you could play mp3s (poorly) through the buzzer
07:29.04hobbsjtd: yeah. The driver was apparently removed. And since then it's apparently become broken.
07:29.05jtdopie-mediaplayer also used to be able to turn the screen off during playback, which was a great feature
07:29.08jtdsince gone.
07:29.23hobbsjtd: at least that's the impression I get from the bitbake file
07:29.28jtdhrrm.
07:29.56jtdI feel like if changes to the kernel made the buzzer driver go 'splody, other things would have broken too.
07:30.33jtdbtw I just found out the proc in the Akita is actually a 617MHz processor :D  you can clock it up whenever you want
07:30.41jtdwhich is *awesome* for development.
07:30.51hobbsjtd: you'd think, but this is what I hear. Who knows, this stuff is weird. And whoever at Sharp wrote the original stuff didn't exactly follow _any_ kernel conventions ;)
07:30.58jtdmight even be able to host its own build environment and not have things take a million years.
07:31.22jtdyes, so I've heard.  lots of "praise" for the Embedix kernel.
07:31.32hobbsjtd: it's running at 416 by default, isn't it? But yeah, a 50%-ish boost can be useful. So long as you don't melt anything.
07:32.23jtdhobbs: it is.
07:32.49hobbsanyway I'm flashing one more image and going to bed. Won't fix anything, but I turned on DEBUG in the driver. So hopefully it'll spam me with info. And _wishfully_, I'll understand some of it ;)
07:33.08jtdsleep is for the weak!
07:33.22hobbsjtd: I have work to go to. And I keep coming in late because I went to bed at 3AM
07:33.34jtd:) trust me, I feel your pain
07:33.43jtdI used to do this stuff *at* work when there was no work to do
07:33.55jtdmy boss didn't bother me mostly because it looked like I was "working hard"
07:33.59hobbsjtd: I might be doing that tomorrow. They haven't been giving me anything for a few days ;)
07:34.27jtdthere was also a prohibition against web browsing, so of course I used Links, which looks like Important DOS Computer Stuff to a PHb.
07:34.35hobbs:)
07:38.28hobbsokay, considering all of the debug info that I'm _not_ seeing, I get a feeling the driver isn't being loaded ;)
07:42.35hrw|workmorning
07:42.39jtdhey hrw.
07:42.51jtdI got my Akita!!!
07:43.07hrw|workI saw that you guys are working on sound-via-buzzer patch on collie?
07:43.23hobbshrw|work: attempting to
07:43.27jtdat the moment it's running pdaXrom, but I'm gonna try OZ soon, if for no other reason than pdaXrom doesn't seem to know how to pivot root to an SD card.
07:43.32hobbshrw|work: you knowledgeable on it?
07:43.36hrw|workhobbs: move sound to modules or it will not work
07:43.39jtdhrw: the module seems to be badly broken
07:44.04hobbshrw|work: okay, I can give that a spin
07:44.21hrw|workjtd: which module?
07:49.22hobbsI forgot how much more annoying the build process was under 2.4 ;)
08:03.55hobbswe get buzzer!
08:04.37hobbspunk-ass: you gone already?
08:06.00hobbssounds like crap, but it kicks pretty good ;)

08:15.39hobbshrw|work: and there's a hack in the driver that lets you have buzzer sounds too... given a little work I can make it a less hacky hack ;)
08:15.52hobbshrw|work: but that's a job for tomorrow, since it's once again after 3AM
08:15.57hobbsand I once again have work tomorrow ;)
08:16.50hrw|workhobbs: feel free to hack it
08:17.01hrw|workhobbs: 2.4-crapix is not maintained
08:17.08hobbshrw|work: right
08:17.23hrw|workhobbs: would be great if someone will disable that notexistant second cf slot...
08:17.32hobbshrw|work: but I think I can make it fly. Actually I already have screen taps working, and the alarm presumably does too
08:18.29hrw|workopie use ioctl() to produce taps/clicks/alarms
08:18.45hobbshrw|work: but the driver has a hardcoded constant in just to handle SHARP_BUZZER_MAKESOUND and throws errors on the volume stuff, which isn't right. But I can import the code that _is_ right :)
08:20.11hobbshrw|work: the actual code to do the work is there, it's just that someone got lazy with the ioctl handling
08:21.05hrw|workmaybe - I looked at this once over year ago

13:58.40alan|homeusing python would use machine ressources, right ?
13:59.07lardman|workyes, but it's supposed to be reasonably lightweight
13:59.19alan|homeok
13:59.19lardman|workthat link you gave is just for a widget, it would need an app written around it
13:59.43alan|homelardman|work: ok.
14:00.02lardman|workthough it could just be a very simple one...
14:03.36alan|homesomething like a file brower, a movie window and a play/stop/fullscreen button ?
14:04.08alan|homewonder how hard to write something like that would be...

14:15.11lardman|workXorA: 810% ??
14:16.58XorAalan|home: can you do mplayer -vc null -vo null /media/cf/moby.mp4 and tell me percentage
14:17.00alan|home808% for superman... then why does mobby work ?
14:17.04alan|homeok
14:17.42XorAim guessing ipod has some hardware for mpeg4 decoding
14:17.54XorAalan|home: mine is sitting about 16%
14:18.13lardman|workXorA: Take a look at rockbox.org, they should have a technical description
14:18.42alan|homeXorA: 17%
14:19.22XorAalan|home: so fixed/floating libfaad in mplayer makes no difference
14:19.39XorAalan|home: its purely the format of the mp4 video thats the problem
14:21.59alan|homelooks like you are right
14:22.13XorAalan|home: ahah, moby is ffodivx codec, mi3 is ffh264 codec
14:22.22alan|homehaaaa
14:22.32XorAso we can surmise h264 doesnt play well on Z
14:22.35alan|homehow did you figure that out ?
14:22.52XorASelected video codec: [ffodivx] vfm:ffmpeg (FFmpeg MPEG-4)
14:23.11alan|homeof course...
14:23.30lardman|workdoesn't plat at all on my Nokia 770, so count yourselves lucky ;)
14:23.37lardman|works/plat/play
14:23.44alan|homehehe
14:24.42alan|homeXorA: that is too bad...
14:25.00XorAlardman|work: does anything real play on a n770, sites I saw were very disparaging about its video capabilities
14:25.38lardman|workXorA: It needs avis basically, but can also play realmedia stuff which is good
14:29.50lardman|workseems a bti picky about encodings though in the .avi which is a real pita
14:30.22XorAlardman|work: :-(
14:31.21lardman|workXorA: Yes, but it will run mplayer (without the dsp), so it just needs people to write dsp plugins (though there's not much info around atm about how to interface with gstreamer which is a pain)
14:31.38hrw|workNOTE: package linux-openzaurus-2.6.16-r24: task do_patch: completed

16:56.07LaibschCoreDump|home: But possibly disastrous consequences.
16:56.23LaibschI updated bug 944 and I think I understand what led to my grief.
16:56.46LaibschI think there should be some improvements to prevent this from happening to other OZ users.
16:58.03CoreDump|homeright
17:00.05LaibschApparently, there is no correlation to what the GUI shows and what mount shows (the real situation).  umount'ing still shows the card being ready to be ejected :-(
17:00.19LaibschThe same thing the other way round.
17:04.34radugalaibsch: i have one small anecdote to share with you, if you're interested.
17:04.52radugai have a 512mb CF flash card; its been very reliable, and very good, for the last two years.
17:05.04radugatwo days ago, it started acting flaky, and losing data,
17:05.08radugaand being unreliable.
17:05.20Laibschwell, that is of course always possible.
17:05.31LaibschBut usually, I go with simple explanations.
17:05.47radugait started this on 2.4.crapplix/pdaXrom, continued it on 2.6/pdaXrom, and continues to be flaky in 2.6/OpenZaurus
17:06.03LaibschMaybe you can try and verify what I wrote about failure to umount in bug 944?  I think this is a software, not a hardware issue.
17:06.32radugalaibsch: a coincidence, but it *started* behaving badly, the very moment that I copied the pdaXrom beta4 system over the network, to it.
17:11.19Laibschraduga: I think my problems at least came from a verifiable software error.

18:07.34radugasimcop: i try same thing... 5 times.  4 times out of 5, no problems.
18:07.49radugasimcop: out of 10 fsck's,  twice showed up with problem.
18:07.54simcop2387hmm
18:08.08radugasimcop: different conditions each time, so hard to be sure
18:08.26radugasimcop: maybe hw failure, maybe not, but i would like to eliminate the possibility
18:08.27simcop2387have you tried checking for bad blcks with badblocks on another linux machine (e.g. different card reader)
18:08.32radugasimcop: yes
18:08.39radugano problems detected so far
18:08.42simcop2387hmm
18:08.51radugai hope its the card, and not the CF port :D
18:09.02simcop2387try reformatting it then and see what happens, maybe it'll work again
18:09.11radugaeh. i have reformatted it.
18:09.18radugaoccasionally bad.
18:09.19simcop2387got any other cf cards?
18:09.35radugayes, i'm not seeing problems with other cards,
18:09.46radugabut its sporadic enough that I can't be really sure
18:09.52radugaannoying, yes
18:10.01simcop2387i'd guess its the card then only extensive tests would find out for sure
18:11.54simcop2387you said its 2 years old now? if its been used alot it could be worn out flash, have you done a write test for badblocks?
18:12.27*** join/#openzaurus JiniDog (n=jini@V8803.v.pppool.de)
18:12.50radugasimcop: not a lot of use; if its worn out, I'm going to guess it could be defective :)
18:13.00simcop2387yea
18:13.17radugabut, multiple possibilities. *might* be dirty, *might* have poor contacts
18:13.42radugaI will feel better with a new card;  then send this one for more extensive testing
18:13.48simcop2387yea
18:14.02simcop2387too bad there isn't something like memtest86 for flash devices
18:14.34simcop2387at least i've never seen nor looked :)
18:15.04radugaat 1gb for $30, or 2gb for $60, its hardly worth the time invested in "fixing"
18:15.10raduga(card is 512mb)
18:15.35radugasimcop: i'm not sure I'd *want* a write intensive memtest86
18:15.54radugabrickbake86 :)
18:15.57simcop2387probably not but if you think its bad you'd be more willing to try :)
18:16.42radugawell, intensively writing to it, if performed rigorously, will only *prove* that its bad :)
18:16.50AlexTejust dd the card with zeros will normally fix it. If there are bad blocks there are supposed to be reallocated with spares ones
18:17.07AlexTeIt's definetely dead when there are no more spare blocks
18:17.17radugaalexte: ok. i'll try that.
