01:07.51 | hvontres|home | summatusmentis: hey there :) |
01:08.15 | summatusmentis | I figured mimecar wasn't here, so I should take the role of greeting people |
01:09.15 | summatusmentis | why does OE take up so much room? |
01:09.46 | hvontres|home | summatusmentis: what do you mean? |
01:09.59 | CoreDump|afk | extracted sources and compiled binaries need room :\ |
01:10.14 | summatusmentis | CoreDump|afk: I thought you were afk :-P |
01:10.23 | CoreDump|afk | I'm kinda |
01:10.25 | CoreDump|afk | <PROTECTED> |
01:10.26 | hvontres|home | CoreDump|afk: hey...you're supposed to be AWAY form keyboard |
01:10.27 | summatusmentis | hvontres|home: it's just big, that's all |
01:10.45 | hvontres|home | summatusmentis: yeah, but HD's are big and cheap now :) |
01:11.25 | summatusmentis | unless you're on a laptop, and a high school senior who needs money for college next year |
01:12.40 | hvontres|home | summatusmentis: you can try adding INHERIT += "rm_work" to your local.conf . That way bitbake cleans up after itself a bit. |
01:12.58 | CoreDump|afk | right, I forgot about that |
01:13.11 | summatusmentis | hvontres|home: ok, good to know |
01:14.05 | hvontres|home | summatusmentis: I am able to build on a 28 GB partition |
01:14.23 | summatusmentis | that's everything? |

01:16.03 | hvontres|home | summatusmentis: hmm, thats a bit tight...time to get rid of some games :) |
01:16.43 | summatusmentis | or my windows partition |
01:17.13 | summatusmentis | hrm... that's an interesting idea... I don't use it |
01:18.04 | hvontres|home | summatusmentis: or at least shrink it down a bunch :) |
01:18.04 | summatusmentis | that would entail shifting my entire partition scheme around |
01:18.10 | summatusmentis | I've only got 80Gb total |
01:19.47 | hvontres|home | summatusmentis: do you ever need windows to set up stuff on the laptop? |
01:20.15 | summatusmentis | only for like, ppt, and minimal phone hacking |
01:20.33 | summatusmentis | but my parents have a desktop running windows, so I suppose i could just use that |
01:21.50 | hvontres|home | summatusmentis: like I said, you could probably use parted or maybe partition magic to resize the windows install down to say 10-20GB and the rest for Linux :) |
01:22.23 | hvontres|home | summatusmentis: plus that way you have the real libs for wine to use as well :) |

01:39.53 | CoreDump|afk | hvontres|home: the bug causes BB 1.8 to hang on its first job doe to some redirection problems |
01:39.57 | hvontres|home | MindChild: IIRC there are still recepies for the crappix kernels in OpenEmbedded |
01:40.28 | hvontres|home | CoreDump|afk: hmmm, haven't run into that one yet.... |

01:42.24 | hvontres|home | MindChild: try looking at org.openembedded.dev/packages/linux/collie-kernels-2.4-embedix.bb as a starting point |
01:43.07 | MindChild | summatusmentis: honestly? I BOUGHT a LOT of apps for my zaurus. I refuse to use something that wont run them. So Im making my own |

01:44.11 | hvontres|home | MindChild: well,you might be stuck with stock sharp roms.... |
01:45.07 | hvontres|home | MindChild: most of the sharp rom stuff does not play well with hardfloat...and IMHO softfloat kicks it's ass on any day... |
01:45.19 | MindChild | exactly |
01:45.40 | MindChild | First Im recompiling a kernel, then to recompile qtopia and apps with softflat |
01:45.45 | MindChild | softfloat |
01:45.57 | hvontres|home | MindChild: but then again, the only piece of Zaurus SW I ever bought was tkc player.. |
01:46.38 | hvontres|home | MindChild: yes, but the sw you bought won't run right with softfloat... unless you have the source, in which case you could also rebuild it for the 2.6 series |
01:47.25 | MindChild | Youre right. I have no idea why that didnt cross my mind |
01:47.35 | hvontres|home | MindChild: kernel+qtopia w softloat ~= OZ 3.5.4 |
01:48.58 | MindChild | There must be a way to force hardfloat apps to use softfloat somehow. I remember doing this in DOS/linux for 387 emulation |

05:37.58 | NAbyss | er, org.oe.xxx/packages/linux/linux-rp-2.6.##/defconfig-collie is the appropriate defconfig file |

09:48.58 | Biblio_peb | daurnimator, as I told you: if you have the time, build the stable and operable platform by using pdaxrom and tailoring the distri to your needs. If you do not have the time (and if you're not an alpha geek), you have to make the decision if you pay and get productive immediately, or if you try to save the money and waste by that your time. |

14:49.02 | XorA | mount -o bind /media/new/oe /home/summa/oldoe |
14:49.56 | summatusmentis | ok, that's good to know, I'd need to do that every reboot right? |
14:50.27 | XorA | summatusmentis: can put it in fstab :-) |
14:50.58 | summatusmentis | I was just sitting here trying to figure out how to do that |
14:51.31 | XorA | <PROTECTED> |
14:51.33 | XorA | I thinkl |
14:53.15 | summatusmentis | so /dev/hda4(for instance) /home/summa/OE ? |
14:53.23 | summatusmentis | or do I need the mountpoint for hda4? |
14:53.40 | XorA | summatusmentis: you can just mount the partition in directly if you wish |
14:54.09 | summatusmentis | oh, I guess that's an option too |
14:54.14 | summatusmentis | hrm, thanks XorA |
14:54.34 | XorA | linux, land of a thousand choices |
14:54.50 | CoreDump|home | Choice Is Good |
14:55.09 | summatusmentis | choice is good, this is true |
14:55.26 | summatusmentis | I feel like such a noob around you all, and i've been using linux for 4 years |
14:56.10 | CoreDump|home | ~10 years here =) |
14:56.27 | summatusmentis | ok, well, I guess I deserve that :-P |
14:57.40 | CoreDump|home | There is always someone that knows more than you do yourself |
14:58.27 | summatusmentis | yeah, I know |
14:59.01 | summatusmentis | I just assumed I had a decent knowledge for linux/etc. this whole OE thing has slapped me in the face :-D |
14:59.24 | CoreDump|home | heh |
14:59.40 | CoreDump|home | embedded linux has a steep learning curve |
15:00.20 | summatusmentis | I noticed :-) |
15:00.27 | CoreDump|home | =D |
15:01.02 | CoreDump|home | I'm into embedded Linux for 4+ years now =) I feel old... |
15:01.22 | summatusmentis | good for you, are there job opportunities? |
15:01.37 | CoreDump|home | oh yes |

15:04.17 | summatusmentis | :-) |
15:04.21 | CoreDump|home | =) |
15:04.50 | summatusmentis | instead of just annoying people like you, XorA, and polyonymous |
15:06.01 | CoreDump|home | if you were annoying we wouldn't have this conversation heh |
15:06.38 | summatusmentis | lol, well that's good to hear. I try to not be annoying |
15:27.59 | hrw | summatusmentis: you are doing good job |
15:28.20 | summatusmentis | hrw: of not being annoying? thanks :-D |
15:28.47 | hrw | x |
15:28.58 | hrw | of angstrom/oz things |
15:29.15 | summatusmentis | really? I feel like I haven't done anything |
15:29.44 | hrw | atleast your are not afraid of using our images |
15:30.01 | summatusmentis | that's true |
15:30.21 | hrw | and you provide some feedback |
15:30.40 | hrw | which is good. |
15:30.41 | summatusmentis | after I lost a semesters worth of notes when I was playing w/ partitions on my laptop, I'm not afraid of too much |
15:30.55 | summatusmentis | well, I'm trying |
15:31.18 | hrw | in tuesday I will buy new hdd for this laptop. moving crypto lvm will be chalenge probably |
15:31.26 | hrw | two options: |
15:31.41 | hrw | 1. connect hdd via usb and move lvm to it using lvm tools |
15:32.10 | hrw | 2. insert new disk, boot debian installer via TFTP and install minimal. then move data from old hdd to new one |
15:33.43 | summatusmentis | I'd install, then move data |
15:34.04 | summatusmentis | what i did, I don't use lvm, or crypto, but I made a tarball of / |
15:34.06 | hrw | I do not know will I have so much time |
15:34.23 | hrw | crypto lvm is a must for me |
15:34.23 | summatusmentis | then booted knoppix, and untarred it to the new partiton |
15:34.43 | hrw | I have misc stuff on this laptop which can not be shown to some people |
15:34.56 | hrw | and this laptop does not have cd/dvd drive at all |
15:35.06 | summatusmentis | ah.... |
15:35.35 | summatusmentis | is there a way to set up lvm/crypto, then copy data? |
15:35.43 | hrw | yes |
15:36.19 | summatusmentis | that's the install option right? that would be my method, but again, it's sort of dependant on time, and what you're comfortable doing |
15:37.33 | hrw | yes - Debian 'etch' allow to install to crypto lvm |
15:37.48 | summatusmentis | yeah, personally that's what I'd do |
