Mar 30 03:37:34 <mib_ox72ui> does anybody know i can get angstrom  to run php
Mar 30 12:21:21 <selzeda> Hey guys, does somebody use a recent angstrom on hx4700 with a pcmcia-adapter that utilizes serial_cs? I'm aware of the pxa-serial-problem and I'm using a patched kernel
Mar 30 12:21:41 <selzeda> After inserting the pcmcia-card, I get another /dev/ttyS4
Mar 30 12:22:09 <selzeda> But at the moment I access it (for example via 'cat /dev/ttyS4' the hx4700 freezes completely
Mar 30 12:22:14 <XorA> ouch
Mar 30 12:22:25 <selzeda> jepp ;)
Mar 30 12:22:32 <XorA> another ttys4?
Mar 30 12:22:36 <selzeda> Tried to debug it with strace and friends
Mar 30 12:22:45 <selzeda> XorA: Sorry, not another
Mar 30 12:22:52 <selzeda> There are ttyS0-ttyS3
Mar 30 12:23:02 <selzeda> And ttyS4 gets added after inserting the pcmcia adapter
Mar 30 12:23:11 <selzeda> Its a rfid reader (acg) btw
Mar 30 12:23:12 <XorA> ah ok, sounds like something is wrong with the 8250 driver
Mar 30 12:23:14 <selzeda> But that should not matter
Mar 30 12:23:23 <selzeda> yup
Mar 30 12:23:37 <XorA> never seen that problem on the pxa zauruses
Mar 30 12:23:52 <selzeda> XorA: So you're using a patched kernel also?
Mar 30 12:24:01 <XorA> selzeda: yes, I wrote the patch for the zaurus
Mar 30 12:24:14 <XorA> selzeda: but i no longer have that hardware
Mar 30 12:24:25 <selzeda> I've got mine directly from Dmitry "MAD" Artamonow
Mar 30 12:24:41 <selzeda> XorA: oh
Mar 30 12:24:49 <selzeda> Well, is there something I can try?
Mar 30 12:25:10 <selzeda> Or do you know of some other kernel-versions for a hx4700?
Mar 30 12:25:17 <selzeda> Maybe the old ones before hh17
Mar 30 12:25:27 <XorA> Ive never own an ipaq
Mar 30 12:25:33 <selzeda> According to google, they should work with pcmcia-serial-adapters!?
Mar 30 12:25:41 <selzeda> ah k
Mar 30 12:26:12 <XorA> they should be pretty identical to zaurus in the same mode
Mar 30 12:26:45 <selzeda> Well, the thing is that I only need some shell, python and a working pcmcia-serial connection ;)
Mar 30 12:27:10 <XorA> I assume you have no debug cable so you cant see the kernel oopsing
Mar 30 12:27:24 <selzeda> unfortunately not, just a usb-ethernet conn
Mar 30 12:27:35 <selzeda> But that dies at the instant of accessing ttyS4
Mar 30 12:27:44 <XorA> yeah, sounds like kernel is oopsing
Mar 30 12:27:53 <selzeda> yup
Mar 30 12:27:57 <XorA> try shutting down X before using the card
Mar 30 12:28:09 <XorA> the oops should get dumped to the console, you might be able to see enough to work it out
Mar 30 12:28:26 <selzeda> Oh, I didn't think of that, thanks
Mar 30 12:29:47 <selzeda> It should be no problem that I boot angstrom via the typical exe-bootloader from within win2003, accessing a sd-card with my ext2-partition, shouldn't it!?
Mar 30 12:37:36 <XorA> woudlnt have thought so
Mar 30 12:39:41 <selzeda> shutting down X seems not too easy though ;-) Killing X and gpe related processes spawns them again...
Mar 30 12:40:49 <broonie> selzeda: stop the display manager
Mar 30 12:41:57 <selzeda> broonie: metacity, right
Mar 30 12:42:07 <selzeda> broonie: then I try gpe-related stuff
Mar 30 12:42:17 <broonie> No, that's the window manager.
Mar 30 12:42:44 <broonie> gpe-dm is the usual one for GPE.
Mar 30 12:42:50 <selzeda> broonie: oh, you're right
Mar 30 12:43:21 <selzeda> broonie: killing gpe-dm freezes the screen
Mar 30 12:43:41 <selzeda> broonie: (ssh via usb-ethernet does still work)
Mar 30 12:45:27 <selzeda> Yup, killing gpe-dm freezes the screen, restarting it does work and killing again freezes again
Mar 30 12:46:21 <selzeda> Maybe I should rename X-related binaries so after booting they're not found and I get a console ;-)
Mar 30 12:46:43 <broonie> If you're going to do that just edit the gpe-dm initscript
Mar 30 12:47:52 <selzeda> broonie: done, good idea, thank!
Mar 30 12:47:59 <selzeda> s/thank/thanks
Mar 30 12:49:47 <XorA> heh someone woke the broonie 
Mar 30 12:53:59 <selzeda> ok, now there is some real kernel panic visible
Mar 30 12:55:07 <selzeda> Kernel panic - not syncing: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
Mar 30 12:55:40 <selzeda> Yeah well, the stacktrace would help more, right ;)
Mar 30 12:56:48 <selzeda> handle_irq_event and handle_edge_irq seem to be involved
Mar 30 12:59:21 <selzeda> Hm, the 'cat /dev/ttyS4' did show the expected string from the pcmcia-adapter (LDX 1.0, a version string from the rfid-reader) so at least some kind of connection works at first...
Mar 30 22:11:17 <neatojones> hello
Mar 30 22:12:42 <neatojones> Could anyone tell me where I can get .src and .tar.gz files for ipk packages in the Angstrom repo?  I'd like to try to modify a package.
Mar 30 22:17:53 <Crofton> www.openembedded.org
Mar 30 22:25:37 <neatojones> Thanks Crofton.
