03:36.43summatusmentishas anyone else experienced the screen going dark after coming back from suspend on a 3200?
03:37.16JustinPsort of
03:37.27JustinPI have a 3000 and have had the screen take forever to come up
03:37.42JustinPI've also had it keep turning itself off....over...and....over....
03:42.43summatusmentisreally? that's annoying
03:43.09summatusmentisI'm just wondering if there's something I can do to fix this issue, it's bothersome, because it' means running the stylus around the lower left hand corner
03:43.14summatusmentisin order to find the lighting applet
03:43.59JustinPwhat are you running on it? (distro, version, etc)
03:44.24summatusmentisOZ, 3.5.4
03:44.34summatusmentisI think the kernel is 2.6.17
03:45.00JustinPhmmm....I'd try a newer release
03:46.09summatusmentisnewer release? there's a newer release?
03:46.41JustinPlike....3.5.4.1 or 3.5.4.2?
03:46.50JustinPyou would also try upgrading
03:46.54JustinP(ipkg upgrade)
03:47.09summatusmentisoh, ok, yeah, I do have 3.5.4.1, I was mistaken
03:48.05JustinPyou can try editing the /etc/apm* scripts
03:48.18JustinPor the scripts in /etc/zaurusd
03:48.33JustinPor you could try building a newer release....or trying angstrom (although it's not done yet)
03:49.08summatusmentisI've thought about angstrom, but I'm paranoid about 'beta' software
03:49.37summatusmentiswhich is why I'm running gentoo :-P
03:49.38JustinPsure
03:49.56JustinPgentoo is not beta unless you're running ~arch
03:50.02summatusmentisoh, I need to setup OE on this machine, I've been so busy getting gentoo where I wanted it
03:50.09JustinPand gentoo's upgrade path is so damn easier than any other distro ;-)
03:50.19summatusmentisthat's true, it's just more 'cutting edge' than debian testing
03:50.27JustinPwhich is a good thing, IMHO
03:50.58summatusmentisno no, I don't disagree, it's just daunting for a someone coming from the binary world of .deb
03:51.47summatusmentisthere weren't 3.5.4.2 packages built and released for all models were there?
03:51.48JustinPheh
03:52.06JustinPI really don't know....I haven't used the releases since I set up OE
03:52.22summatusmentislol, so you just build the .dev image every now and again?
03:52.25JustinPand I tend to customize my install....
03:52.49JustinPalthough my installs always tend to have strange problems too...like remounting / ro
03:52.55JustinP(after a while)
03:53.06summatusmentisthat would bother me
03:53.10JustinPactually, I'm still running .oz354x as my base install
03:53.24summatusmentisoh really?
03:53.29JustinPyep
03:53.46JustinPI keep trying angstrom with loopback images and it keeps failing the "working" test
03:53.56summatusmentishrm... I've been meaning to setup OE
03:54.09JustinP(like wifi working...although it could be because some dingo didn't include the wifi stuff in the images)
03:54.18JustinPmostly it works, though
03:54.26JustinPI haven't had a chance to try it again in a while
03:54.39summatusmentisbuilding on a machine w/ 768Mb Ram, compiling lots of things takes a while
03:54.58summatusmentisoh, I forgot about loopback images
03:55.07summatusmentisdoes angstrom provide those?
03:55.18JustinP"provide"?
03:55.24JustinPnobody provides them, you set them up yourself
03:55.41JustinPhttp://pear.reversefold.com/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=zaurus:loopbackimages
03:55.46JustinPeasy as pie
03:56.38summatusmentisI seem to remember downloading one from OZ when I was playing with them on my collie
03:57.31JustinPperhaps hentges made some, yes
03:57.48summatusmentisthen using altboot to 'make it boot' or something, option 8 maybe?
03:58.08*** join/#openzaurus Zero_Chaos (n=zero@c-71-60-239-40.hsd1.pa.comcast.net)
03:58.17JustinPsomething like that
03:58.22JustinPyeah, collie sux for space
03:59.57summatusmentisit looks as though OZ has finally been put to rest
04:00.24Zero_Chaosyes, and angstrom has no wifi so it is useless for me :-)
04:00.52JustinP"none"? I'm sure it's working for some people
04:01.10JustinPI don't think it's getting installed by default
04:01.20Zero_Chaoscorrect
04:01.28Zero_Chaosnothing wifi related at all
04:01.37Zero_Chaosexcept the freaking orinoco drivers
04:01.57JustinPwell, built an image with the wifi stuff
04:02.23JustinPI'm planning on trying it
04:02.23JustinPor you could just download the ipks
04:03.20*** join/#openzaurus kb7sqi (i=kb7sqi@cpe-071-071-104-054.triad.res.rr.com)
04:05.14summatusmentishttp://www.openzaurus.org/wordpress/2007/04/26/openzaurus-time-is-over-long-live-angstrom/
04:09.16summatusmentisI just noticed, in english, Angstrom can be split into two words, Angst and Rom... interesting
04:09.27Zero_ChaosLoL
04:09.37Zero_Chaosthat describes my feeling last I installed it
04:10.33summatusmentishopefully that fixes itself, as the rom matures, and has a release
04:10.44Zero_Chaosno doubt it will
04:10.52Zero_Chaosit looks like it has potential
04:12.47summatusmentisthere's no wifi stuff installed by default in Angstrom?
04:13.05Zero_Chaosnot unless the device has builtin wifi
04:13.18summatusmentismm
04:13.27summatusmentisJustinP: is there an OE branch for Angstrom?
04:13.38JustinPsummatusmentis: not its own, no, .dev
04:13.56summatusmentisoh, ok
04:24.39hvontres|zzZZzzsummatusmentis: I think hrw just put in a fix to add the wifi stuff by default. It should make it into the next set of images
04:27.37summatusmentishvontres|home: that's good to know, thanks
04:28.12summatusmentisI probably won't get OE setup for a couple of weeks, i've got ap tests and stuff coming up :-/
04:29.41hvontres|homesummatusmentis: which ones?
04:30.01summatusmentisAP Calc AB, AP Stats, AP English Lit(I think it's lit, I'm not sure)
04:30.22hvontres|homesounds like fun :)
04:30.53summatusmentisheh, that stats won't be bad, the calc shouldn't be terrible, but I'm not gonna do as well as I should, and the english is just gonna blow
04:31.08JustinPcalc wasn't bad for me
04:31.37JustinPI just threw away the formula my teachers had been giving me to 2 years and wrote what I felt like and I aced the lit ;-)
04:32.14summatusmentiswell, I guess that's one way to do it, but I'm just not sure... I guess the prompts are wide open, and we've been writing to specific books all year long
04:32.27summatusmentisthat, and I didn't read half of them

21:36.04polyonymousis there anywhere recent kexec ipk for oz available?
21:36.54CoreDump|homeit didn't change in a looooong time so the one in the feeds should be ok
21:37.24polyonymousCoreDump|home, "polyonymous: kexec got mainline in .21, under different syscall # than was before. userspace needs update too. maybe that's an issue."
21:37.35CoreDump|homeoops
21:37.38polyonymous(that's quote from psokolovky in #angstrom)
21:38.01polyonymousand I can't build it here anymore, since oz went out of .dev...
21:38.02CoreDump|homehe is right of course
21:38.24CoreDump|homeOZ is compiled using the .oz354x branch
21:38.33polyonymousYes, I didn't doubt it. I'm looking for a solution. I don't want to ruin my current OZ setup to try it.
21:38.35CoreDump|homeI don't have a build-env for that ATM
21:38.49polyonymousNeither I do :)
21:38.54CoreDump|home=)
21:39.01polyonymousDo you have any idea where can I get kexec-tools binaries?
21:39.17polyonymousI'm at the point of trying to build it on Z, if I have toolchain (which I'm not sure I do)
21:39.25CoreDump|homenot really, I never use the public feeds w/ my devices
21:39.37polyonymousneither I do :)))
21:39.45CoreDump|home=D
21:40.09CoreDump|homeI take it you tried compiling it from .dev?
21:40.37polyonymousThere's no OZ in dev anymore, and I doubt compiling it with angstrom setup would do.
21:40.43polyonymouswith all this abi stuff.
21:41.11polyonymousI'm trying to try angstrom in chroot on my OZ handheld...
21:42.05polyonymousroot@pangolin:~/src/kexec-tools-testing-20070330# ./configure

21:42.05polyonymous<PROTECTED>
21:42.09CoreDump|homefor which machine do you need the ipk?
21:42.13polyonymousspitz
21:45.34CoreDump|homepolyonymous: I'll see if my akita setup builds and let you know. It'll take a day or so in any case
21:45.57polyonymousI'm trying to build it on HH now. Just pulled the patch from the tree.. :)
21:46.05CoreDump|home=)
21:46.12polyonymousI'm desperate, you know :)
21:46.29polyonymousdamn. C compiler can't create executables :)
21:46.37CoreDump|homehehe
21:47.03polyonymouscrt1.o no such file or directory. strange.
21:47.06CoreDump|homethe blasted openmoko image is compiling all day sigh
21:47.30polyonymousuhh.. on what host?
21:47.50CoreDump|homelocal
21:47.55polyonymous:)))))
21:48.01polyonymousbeing what?
21:48.11CoreDump|homea notebook
21:48.15polyonymousBut please, don't give me the hostname other than localhost :)
21:48.16CoreDump|homec2d
21:48.19polyonymousah.
21:48.48polyonymoushaven't tried parallel builds yet...
21:48.53CoreDump|homeon single-core the machine would be unusable with a bitbake run in the background
21:49.19CoreDump|homepolyonymous: it runs single-thread so I can use the notebook for other stuff as well
21:49.34polyonymousYeah, that's a good thing too :)
21:50.17polyonymouswell, I do not have working toolchain on my Z... that sucks :)
21:50.44CoreDump|homecompiling on an embedded device sucks anyway =)
21:51.03polyonymouswell, just kexec-tools wouldn't be a big deal with working toolchain.
21:51.09CoreDump|hometrue
21:52.09polyonymousof course I have an option of mv-ing my whole setup into subdir, reflashing angstrom kernel and booting it.. But I really can't do it, because with my insomnia having no ebook to read in bed is awful :)
21:52.54polyonymousI do not fancy the idea of checking out .oz branch and building it either, but I think that's the fastest I can do.
21:53.47CoreDump|homeyou should try one of the portrait Zs for e-book reading (or even an iPAQ)
21:53.57CoreDump|homethey are _perfect_ for that
21:54.10polyonymousI only have one Z :) And I'm quite satisfied with it.
21:54.19CoreDump|homehehe
21:54.23polyonymousEspecially with the ability to read ebooks BOTH in portrait and landscape.
21:54.31CoreDump|homeright
21:54.44polyonymousThere's nothing like putting clamshell on your chest and relax while reading :)
21:54.47CoreDump|homeI'd really like to checkout an SL-6000
21:55.27CoreDump|homeI've been told the 6000's display is even better than the SL-Cxx00 ones
21:55.57polyonymousah... No, I like clamshell.
21:55.57CoreDump|homeme, too really. Just not for ebook reading
21:56.03polyonymousWell, I don't use keyboard much, but I feel sooo uncomfortable when I don't have one... :)
21:56.09CoreDump|homebtw, got a decend source for good ebooks?
21:56.36polyonymousYou can portrait clamshell...
21:56.43polyonymousWell, I mostly read from gutenberg

23:22.33CoreDump|homepolyonymous: excelent
23:22.49polyonymousjust to let you know I'm not going to pester you for ipk :)
23:22.51CoreDump|homecould you talk to hrw so he uploads it into the feeds?
23:22.58CoreDump|homepolyonymous: heh
23:23.26polyonymousI can, but I really doubt there are many people who are willing and able to handle it.
23:25.21polyonymoushmm... not that the newlybuilt kexec works... Well, having build environment it's easier to think about the solution.
23:25.57polyonymousah, of course... .oz* has older kernel...
23:36.17polyonymousat least I managed to keep an idiot (myself) busy before it's time to sleep :)
