18:41:35ungrznahi
18:41:38Tangentrazzer : Evening
18:41:52razzerhey mate
18:41:57razzerhows things?
18:42:50Tangentrazzer : Oh.. pretty good... having a day of messing with StrongArm stuff today
18:43:38razzeryou brewing a distro?
18:43:59Tangentrazzer : Already have one... intimate.handhelds.org is my baby
18:44:19razzerwhat kinda state is it at?
18:44:42Tangentrazzer : It's been working for the last 12 months...
18:44:54Tangentrazzer : Check the screenshots page
18:45:00razzerwait a mo', what platform is it for?
18:45:15Tangentipaq, tuxscreen and almost for the psion
18:45:34Tangentrazzer : It's a little on the large side for my psion...
18:45:41razzeralmost? whats stoppping it from working?
18:45:55TangentLaziness on my part
18:46:08Tangentrazzer : I booted it up a couple of months back, and it was all fine...
18:46:34Tangentdidn't actually try the X server at the time, but I know people who enjoy tweaking xserver code and recompiling it, so that wouldn't be a problem
18:46:55razzerhmm I would like to see x running as thats whats stopping psilinux taking off
18:47:09razzera console just isnt enough
18:47:21razzerand picogui hasnt the apps to use by default
18:47:24Tangentrazzer : Let me find you some files to mess with...
18:47:53razzerhuzzah :)
18:49:07Tangenthttp://intimate.handhelds.org/installer/randr/Xipaq
18:49:17TangentHere's the familiar X server....
18:49:28Tangentgive that a try on your iPAQ
18:49:50razzererm why do you think I am in #psilinux?
18:50:07razzerI only have a psion 5mx, well unless you count my vtech helio
18:50:18Tangenterm.. I meant psion
18:50:31TangentSorry.. been messing with iPAQ all day
18:51:09razzeryeah you better apologise, now hang your head in shame and say a thousand hail psion's
18:51:28TangentHail psion.. you have a good keyboard and long battery lide
18:51:32Tangentlife
18:52:04razzerexactly, thats why its better for linux, no wasting of cramped screen estate for some lame onscreen kayboard
18:52:26Tangentrazzer : You could try putting intimate onto a CF card even... if you were feeling daring...
18:52:41Tangenthttp://intimate.handhelds.org/intimate20011113.tar.bz2
18:52:50razzeryeah? whats the chances of it working?
18:53:00razzerand will I have x?
18:53:02Tangentrazzer : 80% chance it'll work just fine
18:53:21Tangent70% chance X will need some command line parameters changing
18:53:44razzeroh but aslong as its part of the distro Im willing to give it a shot
18:54:12razzeryou know you should get in contact with wazlaf as he is building a distro with debian style package support
18:54:18razzeruses ipkg's
18:54:26Tangentuses .debs
18:54:35razzerwhats the difference?
18:54:48razzeror am i confusing dpkg with ipkg
18:55:15Tangent.deb is some tar.gz files in an ar archive.... .ipk is some tar.gz files in a tar archive
18:55:25Tangentother than that, they're pretty much identical
18:55:43razzeroh right, theres me thinking it was a different format
18:56:02Tangentipkg is designed to be more lightweight than dpkg... so ar was dropped
18:56:17Tangentthe packages themselves are basically identical
18:56:21razzeryup makes sense
18:56:35razzerare the files interoperable?
18:57:19razzer31mb is pretty big, is this inimate got everything?
18:57:20Tangentrazzer : No.. sadly not..
18:57:42razzerhow much space does it need? I only have a 64mb cf
18:57:58Tangent64Mb probably won't be enough
18:57:59Tangent:(
18:58:27Tangentintimate does have _everything_ by default
18:58:38razzerdamnit :(
18:58:58razzerwell is there anyway you can moduralise it, maybe use packages?
18:59:37Tangentrazzer : It is all packaged... there's a base image that's a lot smaller...
18:59:48Tangentrazzer : That one's a tar with all the stuff installed.
18:59:55razzerwell cut me a slice of that cake :)
19:00:07Tangentrazzer : The base image is only available with rsync at the moment
19:00:24razzerhmm and how would I use thees rsync?
19:01:07Tangentrsync -zcurvpl --progress intimate.handhelds.org::intimate-beta <dir to put the files in>
19:02:00razzersave that thought and let me restart into linux
19:05:02razzerbak
19:05:05Tangentrsync -zcurvpl --progress intimate.handhelds.org::intimate-beta <dir to put the files in>
19:05:12razzernow that rsyn thingy a me bobby
19:06:15razzerhmm its doing a whole lotta nothing
19:07:05razzershould I be seeing some sorta output
19:07:07razzer?
19:08:24TangentYeah.. you should.... I'm not seeing anything either...
19:08:36razzerthats not a good thing is it :(
19:09:12razzerfailed to connect to intimate.handhelds.org - Connection timed out
19:10:06TangentI've just mailed the hh.org people about the problem...
19:10:41Tangentrsync -zcurvpl --progress h1.handhelds.org::intimate-beta ./test
19:10:49razzerthat workds?
19:10:53TangentYep.. seems to
19:11:04Tangenthh.org just moved servers in the last couple of days
19:11:34razzerhmm not getting anything
19:12:40Tangentbrb... food
19:15:02razzerfailed to connect to h1.handhelds.org - Connection timed out
19:15:03razzerok
19:24:59Tangentback
19:25:07Tangentrazzer : Are you stuck behind a firewall?
19:25:24razzerI do have a router
19:25:25Tangentrsync needs tcp 873
19:25:47razzerok I'll set it up
19:26:03TangentHrm.. it worked a second ago... not it's not working
19:26:46yoshihola
19:27:24Taderaloh
19:27:59razzerdo I need to mkdir test?
19:29:20yoshirazzer ?
19:30:21yoshiso anybody here an idea where I have to put libcurses - 'cause bash needs it and doesn't find it..
19:31:21razzerhmm still not working Tangent
19:32:18Tangentrazzer : No.. not working just yet
19:32:38razzerwell I opened the port for it
19:46:12Tangentrazzer : It's strange... rsync is clearly running on the server, but it timeouts when connecting
19:46:30razzerhmm, well I know nothing about that#
19:49:22Tangentrazzer : Hrm.. it's starting to look like the box itself is having some problems
19:50:16razzerok, I dont spose you have a link to the latest kernels do you?
19:50:39Tangentrazzer : Sadly not...
