IRC log for #openzaurus on 20070511

00:09.30summatusmentisok, I know this is a stupid question, where do I set preferences, like ls being colored all the time, and stuff like that
00:09.42summatusmentisI set it in /etc/skel/.bashrc but it didn't do much
00:14.54CoreDump|homethe retarded busybox shell does not honor rcfiles
00:16.32summatusmentisso... I need to install bash instead, and override busybox somehow?
00:16.50CoreDump|homethat would work, yes
00:17.14summatusmentiswhat do you do?
00:17.31summatusmentisjust deal? or is busybox really crucial? can I remove it completely?
00:17.32CoreDump|homeinstall bash into your rootfs ( not an external mountpoint! ) and change your shell to bash in /etc/passwd or symlink /bin/sh to /bin/bash
00:17.42CoreDump|homeyou can't remove BB
00:17.43summatusmentisok
00:17.55summatusmentisok, thanks

00:18.34summatusmentisare other things crippled? should I replace other things as well? I've done vim
00:19.24CoreDump|homeI can't think of any ATM =)
00:19.42summatusmentisalright, thnks
00:19.43summatusmentisthanks**
00:22.38summatusmentisok, I thought that worked... I'll sumlink it
00:22.41summatusmentissymlink it
00:24.04CoreDump|homeif you didn't install it right into the rootfs, you _will_ hose your system for good
00:24.35summatusmentisCoreDump|home: I installed it to rootfs, I'm on a 3200, I've got a 1Gb /
00:25.22summatusmentisseems like busybox is overriding it... or something
00:25.37summatusmentisvim is acting like BB's vi, and I'm still not getting a colored ls
00:28.56summatusmentisCoreDump|home: it says BB is a dependency of task-boot, is it that crucial? I removed dropbear, and it was a dependency as well
00:29.26CoreDump|homedo _not_ remove BB
00:29.41summatusmentisok
00:29.55CoreDump|homeit will FUBAR your system as it provides many system binaries
00:30.13summatusmentisfair enough, I just wasn't fure
00:30.15summatusmentissure**
00:32.32CoreDump|homewell, there should probably be a non-BB rootfs for HDD/MD models
00:32.57summatusmentisI was just thinking the same thing, hrm
00:33.24CoreDump|homemaybe I'll make one when the SL-C3200 arrives =)
00:33.45summatusmentisyou'll be my savior forever, but it means i'm gonna have to reflash :-P
00:34.25CoreDump|homeinstalling onto MD != flashing
00:34.47summatusmentisMD? what is that
00:34.55CoreDump|homeMicroDrive
00:35.05summatusmentisok, not reflash, just reimage the MD
00:35.46summatusmentissorry, I just get used to using the term 'flashing'
00:36.55CoreDump|homeI'll probably provide loop-images as well, so deleting the old image is not required
00:37.34summatusmentisit's not terrible, just means I'd be reinstalling everything, whatever
00:44.31summatusmentisthe only issue would be fragmentation of images, which is what people didn't want, hence the reason for not supporting collie at first

22:21.26CoreDump|homeyou mean the desktop menu?
22:21.53hvontres|poodleCoreDump|home: Wb.
22:22.19CoreDump|homethanks!
22:22.49CoreDump|home~borzoi
22:22.51ibotsomebody said borzoi was the Sharp SL-C3100, or a dog (see http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/borzoi.htm )
22:23.01CoreDump|home~sl-c3200
22:23.10CoreDump|home~terrier
22:23.13iboti guess terrier is Sharp Zaurus SL-C3200, or a dog
22:23.16CoreDump|home=)
22:23.46summatusmentisCoreDump|home: yeah, sort of, there's a series of 'folder' icons on the GPE desktop
22:23.55hvontres|poodleCoreDump|home: Could you do me a favor? Could you flash a recent angstrom console image on "your" poodle and see if the screen comes back after resume? I am trying to see if the problem I am seeing is limited to pxa250's only or also affects pxa255's
22:23.59summatusmentisthen programs inside of those 'folders', I'd like to move them around

22:24.41cdbot2* * http://bugs.openembedded.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2120
22:25.03CoreDump|homehvontres|poodle: I don't have the poodle here ATM sorry
22:25.16hvontres|poodleCoreDump|home: np.
22:25.19summatusmentis~poodle
22:25.21ibotpoodle is probably sl-5600/b500, or a dog
22:25.54summatusmentishvontres|poodle: I've got a 5500 here I can try, but that may not be what you're looking for
22:25.55CoreDump|homesummatusmentis: they sort the icons based on some meta-data (SECTION maybe?) in their .desktop file
22:26.12summatusmentisCoreDump|home: ok, where are the .desktop files located?
22:26.26hvontres|poodlesummatusmentis: no, this seems to be limited to 5600 only.
22:26.28CoreDump|homefind /usr -name "*.desktop*"
22:26.43summatusmentisCoreDump|home: ah, ok
22:26.50summatusmentishvontres|poodle: alright, just thought I'd offer
22:26.58CoreDump|hometime to setup a spitz build env
22:27.00hvontres|poodlesummatusmentis: appreciate it :)
22:27.22CoreDump|homesummatusmentis: are you running some kind of OZ on your spitz?
22:27.27hvontres|poodleCoreDump|home: so, did you order that 3200 already?
22:27.41CoreDump|homehvontres|poodle: it should be here tomorrow =)
22:27.47summatusmentisCoreDump|home: Angstrom
22:27.54hvontres|poodleCoreDump|home: lucky dog...:)
22:27.54MindChildAnyone know what the last version of the Sharp kernel was (2.4)?
22:27.55summatusmentisso, sort of
22:28.04CoreDump|homesummatusmentis: thanks
22:28.07CoreDump|homehvontres|poodle: yeah =)
22:28.17summatusmentisCoreDump|home: sure, why?
22:28.19CoreDump|homeMindChild: 2.4.18 IIRC
22:28.41CoreDump|homesummatusmentis: I was wondering what to use as base for my images, Angstrom or the last OZ sources
22:28.59MindChildCoreDump|home: gracias
22:29.13hvontres|poodleMindChild: 2.4.18 for 5500/5600, 2.4.20 for clamshells I think...both heavily patched by Sharp and their lackeys and appearently a bit of a nightmare to fix :)
22:29.31CoreDump|homehvontres|poodle: I was about to say =) The clamshells had a newer kernel
22:29.40summatusmentisCoreDump|home: the images you were talking about yesterday, w/ the real utils vs. busybox? or the hentges images?
22:29.54CoreDump|homesummatusmentis: that would be the same ;)
22:30.13CoreDump|homehow well is Angstrom running on your spitz?
22:30.21summatusmentislol, oh, I guess I missed that
22:30.33summatusmentisCoreDump|home: much better than 3.5.4.1 was
22:31.09CoreDump|homereally?
22:31.18CoreDump|homehmm so Angstrom it is then
22:31.20summatusmentisit seems to be more stable, I was having minor resuming issues w/ OZ, the screen would drop to 0% brightness from resume, and I don't have small font issues after I reset it
22:31.30summatusmentisyeah, it's just the little things
22:31.52MindChildhvontres|poodle: Is there a project with sane patches to the kernel, keeping it compatible, but fixing such things?
22:33.31CoreDump|homeMindChild: I don't think so. SHARP kernels are a royal PITA to fix / maintain.
22:33.56MindChildWell, Im diving in
22:34.01MindChildwish me luck
22:34.06hvontres|poodleMindChild: good luck...:)
22:34.59hvontres|poodleMindChild: from my experience with both the sharp kernels and RP's 2.6 kernels, I must say the 2.6 ones have been much better behaved...
22:35.40MindChildIve tried the 2.6 kernel all last week, and it gave nothing but compatibility problems. Lots of apps just "Illegal Instruction"
22:36.13CoreDump|homeMindChild: the code quality of sharps "patches" is so bad, even someone w/o C knowledge sees it right away
22:36.25MindChildcrap
22:36.52CoreDump|homeright
22:36.55hvontres|poodleMindChild: plus a lot of the sharp-specific stuff that was patched into the 2.4 series has now made it to mainline
22:37.05CoreDump|homeit is nicknamed "2.4-crappix"
22:37.22hvontres|poodleMindChild: you might be better off trying to re-compile the programs, if you can
22:37.36MindChildThat may be an option
22:37.55MindChildHow well does the stock kernel.org kernel match up to the embeddix source?
22:39.01summatusmentisCoreDump|home: the only thing close I'm seeing is the Category meta-data, but it doesn't seem to be doing anything
22:39.20CoreDump|homecategory sounds about right
22:40.00summatusmentisok, maybe I'm unfamiliar w/ the titles, is there a way to look these up?
22:40.07CoreDump|homecopy the Category field of a "Settings/" app into .desktop of a Other/ app
22:40.27CoreDump|homesummatusmentis: I dunno. You might wanna check the matchbox website for docs
22:40.33summatusmentisCoreDump|home: ok
