**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Mar 21 02:59:58 2012 Mar 21 03:09:00 without a doubt, yes. Mar 21 03:09:25 but there are too few devices available where one can play directly with the metal... Mar 21 03:09:46 i should qualify that with 'fun'. Mar 21 03:09:49 too few fun devices. Mar 21 05:04:20 does building qt4-embedded give me qmake? Mar 21 05:05:54 oh yeah, i see it Mar 21 05:08:27 it's not actually a usable install though... Mar 21 05:08:36 JViz, yeah you are supposed to use this version of qmake over the one that might be available for the native platform Mar 21 05:09:43 i'm trying to point qt-creator to the one angstrom used to build it, so i can use it to build my project against Mar 21 05:10:34 if i build qt4-embedded-tools, it'll put it in the sysroot? Mar 21 05:12:54 weird Mar 21 05:15:55 sundar: what do you mean by "this" version of qmake? Mar 21 05:17:08 JViz, I assumed that you were compiling qt4-embedded for the beagleboard. when you do so, you get qmake which will generate Makefile taking the cross-compiler tolls into account. Mar 21 05:17:25 tools* Mar 21 05:17:59 so if you do make followed by a qmake, you compile for the target Mar 21 05:19:10 suppose if you had installed an x86/x86_64 version of Qt4 in your development machine, and if you use this qmake instead with the wrong specs then it may not generate binary that can be run on beagleboard Mar 21 05:19:22 i ended up with a few different qmakes Mar 21 05:19:29 all in work directories Mar 21 05:20:13 i think you should use the qmake that was generated after you compile Qt4 embedded. Do not mix with the native ones. Mar 21 05:20:28 where would that be? in a sysroot? Mar 21 05:21:00 while configuring Qt you would give the location in -prefix right? Mar 21 05:21:21 i just ran bitbake qt4-embedded Mar 21 05:22:21 i am not familiar on bitbake, but should be configured automatically in this case Mar 21 05:22:38 oh i know what you're saying now Mar 21 05:24:01 yeah, so i should try to find the config that angstrom built the local packages for, and build it on my native box seperately, with a slightly modified config? Mar 21 05:25:08 i guess modifications should not be necessary. just check where the built package is available. Mar 21 05:25:24 there should not be more than one qmake Mar 21 05:26:30 if you compile Qt4 development package instead, i think it might generate packages that runs on ARM Mar 21 05:26:49 so as long as i get the mkspecs right for my local version of qt4-embedded, then it should run right on the beagle? Mar 21 05:26:59 it's like having the beagleboard as both the development and target machone Mar 21 05:27:08 yes, it should Mar 21 05:27:18 sweet Mar 21 05:27:24 gonna give that a shot now Mar 21 05:27:26 wish me luck Mar 21 05:27:29 thank you Mar 21 05:27:38 sure, good luck :) Mar 21 07:04:40 Hi all Mar 21 07:51:48 great, cpu misdetection in linux Mar 21 07:52:31 hi Mar 21 07:58:14 hi Mar 21 08:05:20 can any body help me out about usb boot Mar 21 08:13:46 Dipto_: you might want to explain a bit more detailed your problem. (don't bother to ask me though, I can't help with it) Mar 21 08:13:58 hi Mar 21 08:14:25 I want to Boot the board with a pendrive. is that possible? Mar 21 08:14:31 i'm getting pretty decent downloads on my 3G hookup to the beagle board Mar 21 08:14:40 using laptop as a router Mar 21 08:15:11 satellite connection only had 2K byte /sec lol Mar 21 08:19:57 Dipto why not boot from the SD? that is the standard way Mar 21 08:21:45 yes, but I want to do that way. The mmc will not be present, I have to boot only using usb. Mar 21 08:22:38 is this for a class assignment or something like that? Mar 21 08:23:10 yes.. something like that.. Mar 21 08:31:36 Dipto_: talking about which board? Mar 21 08:31:51 BeagleBoard Rev C4 Mar 21 08:32:07 you cannot boot from a usb stick Mar 21 08:32:14 you can boot from usb via a host PC Mar 21 08:33:04 so there is no way to boot from usb stic Mar 21 08:33:25 Dipto_: well the beagleboard has nand, it should be possible to have the bootloader in nand, eventually also the kernel and have the rootfs on usb. Mar 21 08:33:32 even by modifying u-boot or x-loader? Mar 21 08:35:14 where are you going to put xloader? Mar 21 08:35:26 if it's not on the usb stick, you aren't booting from it, no? Mar 21 08:35:35 i can flash the x loader to the nand Mar 21 08:36:09 but that's booting from nand, no? Mar 21 08:36:38 ya.. but the u-boot will be in the usb stick Mar 21 08:36:45 no. Mar 21 08:37:23 sure, add a usb stack to x-loader and load uboot from usb stick Mar 21 08:37:52 Dipto_: you can have the kernel and rootfs on the stick, eg. start a linux from the stick. you can _not_ have the bootloader on usb. Mar 21 08:38:11 How to add usb stack to xloader? i am new to these Mar 21 08:38:36 (except for arcane coding skillz applied, which are rare to find and you obviously don't possess ) Mar 21 08:39:02 Dipto_: if you have to ask, you can't Mar 21 08:39:06 If it is possible to start linux from usb stick, with out the sd card, please tell me the way Mar 21 08:39:09 Dipto_: the usb stack was a joke. you are not able to do this. Mar 21 08:41:12 i've got 226MB updates to ubuntu downloading Mar 21 08:49:06 i'm using my novatel 2200 MiFi box (supports 5 wifi devices), the laptop is using the wifi and connection sharing over a cat5 to the beagle board Mar 21 09:02:18 Dipto_: no queries, please. Mar 21 09:02:51 ok, thanks Mar 21 09:04:27 Dipto_: and its been said all already - ahve xloader and uboot in nand, have them boot to usb. modify the scripts accordingly, there should be enough examples, its very similar to booting from mmc after all. Mar 21 09:04:45 or just boot from sdcard Mar 21 09:04:53 and be done Mar 21 09:04:54 Thanks Mar 21 09:05:13 (you said its something lika class assignment, and i'm not gonna do your homework. go read the docs yourself, its part of the learning process :P) Mar 21 09:05:33 or: http://26-26-54.hardwarebug.org/43 Mar 21 09:06:36 <3 http://26-26-54.hardwarebug.org/110 Mar 21 09:07:40 av500: fun problem: find out if the kernel is wrong, TI programmed the efuses wrong or that the disty gave us the wrong chips Mar 21 09:08:04 [ 0.000000] OMAP3630 ES1.0 (l2cache iva sgx neon isp 192mhz_clk ) Mar 21 09:08:04 vs Mar 21 09:08:08 [ 0.000000] OMAP3630 ES1.2 (l2cache neon isp 192mhz_clk ) Mar 21 09:09:33 so 1.2 has no iva and sgx :) Mar 21 09:09:44 nice upgrade Mar 21 09:09:56 it looks like an AM370x Mar 21 09:10:06 instead of a DM3730 Mar 21 09:11:31 the software just parses the register Mar 21 09:11:52 I'm 90% sure the kernel isn't wrong Mar 21 09:12:04 you are holding it wrong Mar 21 09:12:24 so it's either the efuses that set the register bits or some physical mixup Mar 21 09:12:49 koen: that when you buy "factor floor sweeps" Mar 21 09:12:59 that's Mar 21 09:15:03 yeah Mar 21 09:43:39 well, at least it does have l2cache Mar 21 09:44:01 so it's still > rpi :p Mar 21 09:44:28 ah, no sgx, bummer then, you're doomed Mar 21 09:44:58 *DOOM* Mar 21 09:45:03 piratebay won't consider your kitty for their drones Mar 21 09:50:58 http://www.humanbirdwings.net/ - how udderly ubercool is this? :D Mar 21 09:55:12 lol Mar 21 09:56:53 what a summer this will be - sky full of flying people! :) Mar 21 09:57:26 and add some alcohol || dope...

Mar 21 12:27:51 Hi Mar 21 12:28:48 I am having some problems reading from the analog input ports of the beaglebone Mar 21 12:29:25 has someone experienced buffered problems from ain reading ?? Mar 21 12:44:10 how does one buffer problems? Mar 21 12:55:32 av500, unresolved ones can be considered to be buffered Mar 21 12:56:29 I use a EIFO type for my problem buffer Mar 21 12:56:41 EIFO? Mar 21 12:56:53 Easy In First Out, of course Mar 21 12:57:06 :) Mar 21 12:57:50 help! during the execution of "bitbake virtual/kernel -c menuconfig" i return this error "NOTE: Running task 190 of 395 (ID: 204, virtual:native:/home/gia/Desktop/oe/openembedded/recipes/gmp/gmp_5.0.1.bb, do_qa_configure) ERROR: fork failed: 12 (Cannot allocate memory)" Mar 21 12:58:05 for me, CINGO is the type then. Complex In Never Gets Out Mar 21 12:58:20 I use PWP Mar 21 12:58:34 problem? what problem? Mar 21 12:58:39 lol Mar 21 12:58:53 i don't see any problem in using that :) Mar 21 12:59:18 there's also the Not My [Fine] Problem buffer Mar 21 12:59:32 I like to mux in an appropriate buffer algorithm as necessary though Mar 21 13:00:13 just set up an SEP field and be happy Mar 21 13:01:10 Guest1376: well it says out of memory. Mar 21 13:01:45 always install as much memory as the motherboard will take Mar 21 13:02:30 .. and having some swap ready for emergencies also helps sometimes. Mar 21 13:02:50 swap is for wimps Mar 21 13:03:04 mru: ram only is for posers. Mar 21 13:03:23 *sing* wimps ans posers, leave the hall! Mar 21 13:04:05 LetoThe2nd: sung like a true brother! Mar 21 13:04:16 hello Mar 21 13:04:25 cruel world Mar 21 13:04:32 tnx Mar 21 13:04:38 I'm leaving you today Mar 21 13:12:51 hey. i am having a problem with loading my beagle board. the Nand is probably screwed up as it gives Error: reading boot sector, ECC failed, page 0x00080a00 Mar 21 13:13:08 and if i press user button while reset is says 40W Mar 21 13:13:31 then it hangs at Loading u-boot.bin from mmc Mar 21 13:13:52 can someone pls help me out Mar 21 13:16:00 what bb revision? Mar 21 13:16:27 revc4 i guess :) Mar 21 13:16:50 yea Mar 21 13:17:15 can you enter the uboot command line? Mar 21 13:17:23 if yes, do a nand erase Mar 21 13:17:23 no Mar 21 13:17:44 you have an sdcard inside? Mar 21 13:17:50 yea Mar 21 13:18:21 well, holding the user button should make it boot from SD Mar 21 13:18:43 well as i said it hangs on "Loading u-boot.bin from mmc" Mar 21 13:19:03 please pastebin a full boot log Mar 21 13:20:58 just a sec Mar 21 13:21:29 and nothing else? Mar 21 13:21:33 oops Mar 21 13:21:36 undo Mar 21 13:24:19 how can I connect to the beaglebone having a direct ethernet connection with it (no router or switch)?

Mar 21 13:27:43 ohs: how would it obtain one? either have the other device provide dhcp, or set one manually. Mar 21 13:28:15 I tried to set static IP but it did not work. It stills get IP from DHCP server Mar 21 13:28:30 revc4: ok, so xloader is loaded from the card, that is good Mar 21 13:28:39 do you know is there any small program that acts as a DHCP server to assign an IP to the bone? Mar 21 13:28:52 revc4: now, do you have u-boot.bin on the card? Mar 21 13:29:27 ohs: there certainly are, but i don't feel like googling for you. Mar 21 13:29:51 yes Mar 21 13:31:54 I googled it but I couldnt find it, I wonder if anyone knows the solution Mar 21 13:33:43 is it possible to find a toolchain for angstroms distribution for windows environment? Mar 21 13:34:03 ohs: no. Mar 21 13:34:38 av500: do u have any idea what i could do to solve this problem Mar 21 13:36:50 revc4: could you please try MLO and u-bott.img from here: http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/demo/beagleboard/ Mar 21 13:39:04 dammit I have willie nelson / julio iglesias "to all the girls I've loved before" stuck in my head. Friggin 93.3. Mar 21 13:39:38 * LetoThe2nd hands over a Meshuggah cd to SilicaGel Mar 21 13:40:05 do i just directly copy onto the card. or do i have to partition and set up the card Mar 21 13:40:40 just copy Mar 21 13:40:46 overwrite Mar 21 13:52:38 i got this when booting from mmc(on mmc there is only MLO, uboot.bin and uImage) http://pastebin.com/grcPAUXj Mar 21 13:54:39 hmm Mar 21 13:59:08 does anybody know if bitbake can have a SRC_URI that just pulls directly out of github? Mar 21 13:59:23 It awnts the URI to include ;md5sum= Mar 21 13:59:26 so I'm not sure how to do that :( Mar 21 14:00:07 SilicaGel: just make a tgz from github :) Mar 21 14:00:15 and add patches Mar 21 14:00:23 and re-upload it as a 'download' on github? Mar 21 14:00:29 \o/ Mar 21 14:00:43 call it *_psp_* something Mar 21 14:01:11 upside-download Mar 21 14:02:53 av500: any ideas?? Mar 21 14:03:28 no Mar 21 14:03:32 how do you power the board? Mar 21 14:04:05 usb mini Mar 21 14:04:20 hmm Mar 21 14:04:43 could you power it from 5v dc-in? Mar 21 14:05:15 will try Mar 21 14:05:29 just to rule out stuff Mar 21 14:05:42 koen: ^^^ Mar 21 14:05:57 i have a wierd problem with dropbear Mar 21 14:06:25 I've had many weird problems with that Mar 21 14:06:28 i can start it up when logged into serial, but then it stops when i disconnect from serial Mar 21 14:06:41 how are you starting it? Mar 21 14:06:57 maybe it's still attached to the tty and dies when it goes away Mar 21 14:07:18 etc/init.d/dropbear start Mar 21 14:07:44 also etc/init.d/dropbear start & Mar 21 14:08:15 why would the init script attach it to the tty? Mar 21 14:08:21 no reason Mar 21 14:08:28 but you didn't say how you were starting it Mar 21 14:08:58 maybe because of the '&'? it should background itself automagivcally. Mar 21 14:09:16 s/background/daemonize/ Mar 21 14:09:19 i tried it both ways Mar 21 14:09:25 same behavior Mar 21 14:09:27 LetoThe2nd: if it does, the & should make no difference Mar 21 14:09:36 ok Mar 21 14:11:17 av500: My problem yesterday with SCHED_FIFO and TIImgenc1 was the CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED option. Turning that off fixed it. Mar 21 14:13:17 chrisw957: ic Mar 21 14:14:25 av500: same error with external supply as well Mar 21 14:24:27 i replaced dropbear with sshd, now all is well Mar 21 14:24:31 thank you Mar 21 14:24:33 bbl Mar 21 14:24:34 SilicaGel: koen@dominion:/OE/tentacle/sources/meta-ti$ git grep github.com | grep SRC Mar 21 14:24:37 recipes-kernel/linux/linux-ti33x-psp_3.1.bb:SRC_URI += "git://github.com/beagleboard/linux.git;branch=${BRANCH} \ Mar 21 14:24:40 recipes-misc/payload/beaglebone-getting-started.bb:SRC_URI = "git://github.com/jadonk/beaglebone-getting-started.git" Mar 21 14:24:43 recipes-ti/beagleboard/beaglebone-tester.bb:SRC_URI = "git://github.com/koenkooi/validation-scripts.git;protocol=git \ Mar 21 14:25:14 koen: any idea: http://pastebin.com/grcPAUXj Mar 21 14:26:00 koen: holy crap Mar 21 14:26:21 koen: thanks!

Mar 21 14:33:26 does watching Angstrom compile count as "working" ? Mar 21 14:33:34 * SilicaGel stares off into space Mar 21 14:33:38 303 Mar 21 14:33:51 depends are you filling out timesheets :P Mar 21 14:35:34 * mranostay yawns Mar 21 14:35:50 s/yawns/compiles/ Mar 21 14:36:02 * av500 compiles a lot Mar 21 14:36:33 av500: http://xkcd.com/303/ Mar 21 14:37:04 [15:33:37] 303 Mar 21 14:38:03 is av500 a bot today? Mar 21 14:40:11 today? Mar 21 14:40:48 the av500 bot is just not communicating in "most interesting man" memes today…switched to xkcd mode Mar 21 14:43:30 koen: it shouldn't matter that my project has no 'configure' script right? it's just a makefile Mar 21 14:43:47 (well, and a pile of source) Mar 21 14:44:19 SilicaGel: what, you dont test for fortram compile? Mar 21 14:44:26 or that 1+1 == 2? Mar 21 14:44:27 precisely Mar 21 14:44:30 heh Mar 21 14:44:46 you SW will never run on an unpowered PDP11 Mar 21 14:44:54 maybe i should have a configure script that tests for ncurses and all that, but I dno't know how to make one Mar 21 14:45:05 i'll whatever av500 is drinking this morning :P Mar 21 14:45:15 what if it's arsenic Mar 21 14:45:21 SilicaGel: and what are you going to do if it's not there? Mar 21 14:45:32 if you're just going to fail, you might as well do that when compiling Mar 21 14:45:34 mru: cry? rm -rf / ? Mar 21 14:45:46 mru: yeah. ok. sounds reasonable to me. Mar 21 14:46:02 checking for stuff only makes sense if you can do something useful with or without it Mar 21 14:46:09 yeah Mar 21 14:46:44 well the bitbake way I say DEPENDS= and add panel and ncurses and I think it should take care of thing sfor me .. I hope Mar 21 14:47:02 mru: in that respect checking for fortran compiler is ok Mar 21 14:47:06 if not, then I don't really need bitbake I suppose. I can just say "modify the makefile to point to your cross compiler and type make" Mar 21 14:47:33 av500: fine, checking makes sense if you need to do something differently depending on what you find Mar 21 14:47:45 * mranostay goes back to digging around for a smoker detector to disassemble Mar 21 14:47:49 I am trying to convince myself that this is all worth it. Setting up the bitbake/oe environment takes a long as stime and a lot of disk space Mar 21 14:48:24 SilicaGel: disk space is a concern? Mar 21 14:48:34 heh is this 1999? :) Mar 21 14:48:47 must be Mar 21 14:48:50 not so much. It's more that if someone else wants to build this they have to go through all this too Mar 21 14:48:54 do you know what I mean Mar 21 14:48:58 mranostay: smokers can usually be found in the back gardens of pubs Mar 21 14:49:13 SilicaGel: yocto is easier… http://vimeo.com/24743626 Mar 21 14:49:35 like "here's a 300 line long C program. But to build it, first you have to download a gigabyte worth of crap. And then compile it all, which takes 4 hours. And uses up 24G of your disk." Mar 21 14:49:57 jwinnebeck keeps telling me this is worth it. I'm just not sure. Mar 21 14:49:59 SilicaGel: that all depend on who your users are Mar 21 14:50:05 why would you make it _require_ OE? Mar 21 14:50:11 just write a damn makefile Mar 21 14:50:30 yeah. that's what I have now. A damned makefile. :) Mar 21 14:51:21 and a readme that says "Modify CC= and MACHINE= to match your target" Mar 21 14:51:28 well, that's paraphrased, but you get the idea Mar 21 14:51:45 mru: the radioactive ones still legal in the .eu? Mar 21 14:51:51 Illegal!?!!? Mar 21 14:51:58 radioactive smokers? Mar 21 14:51:59 mranostay: radioactive smokers? Mar 21 14:52:02 How do european smoke detectors work without a souce of ionization? Mar 21 14:52:06 mru: u lag! Mar 21 14:52:20 SilicaGel: optical Mar 21 14:52:23 Are they optical only? or rate of rise? Mar 21 14:52:25 huh. Mar 21 14:52:36 SilicaGel: they have ones that don't use an ion chamber Mar 21 14:52:49 Do they work as well? Mar 21 14:52:55 namely people that view anything nuclear as bad :) Mar 21 14:53:03 and no i've heard they don't Mar 21 14:53:45 d Mar 21 14:53:45 NOTE: Running task 477 of 1174 Mar 21 14:53:48 haha I love it.

Mar 21 15:09:55 nothing blinks until the kernel is up Mar 21 15:10:07 sometime I think these leds do more bad than good Mar 21 15:10:23 only when they are lit Mar 21 15:10:36 so when linux is running, it's evil only part of the time Mar 21 15:11:01 it makes all the people report meaningless LED patterns Mar 21 15:11:19 beep codes ftw Mar 21 15:11:38 yeah, add them to a bug report :) Mar 21 15:12:49 av500: LOL Mar 21 15:15:56 led patterns only if they are morse code! :) Mar 21 15:16:28 or use 6 leds and display messages in braille Mar 21 15:17:08 blind people have optical sensors in fingertips these days? Mar 21 15:18:24 I'm sure some kind of implant would be possible Mar 21 15:18:40 in that case implant RS232 Mar 21 15:18:50 can talk to a beagle directly Mar 21 15:19:35 helloooo ppl...i have a problem here. i would appreciate some help.. my major project is stuck cuz of this Mar 21 15:20:01 revc4: did you switch personality? Mar 21 15:20:22 what makes u say that? Mar 21 15:20:38 I dunno, feels like you just reset Mar 21 15:20:59 and had blond hairs before Mar 21 15:20:59 since we talk about your "problem" already.... Mar 21 15:21:36 i reset the board so many times.. maybe i reset myself by \mistake Mar 21 15:21:48 * mdp prepares to determine if the problem matches his Easy filter Mar 21 15:22:03 42! Mar 21 15:22:11 revc4: [15:58:03] koen/av500: http://pastebin.com/YWJqWAtT (i took a previously working sd card and replaced the boot files(mlo,uboot,uimage) from http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/demo/beagleboard/) Mar 21 15:22:24 what do you mean with "previously working"? Mar 21 15:23:08 oh..i meant that before it used to work(like last month)..but today it stopped working suddenly Mar 21 15:23:38 but that was booting from nand I guess Mar 21 15:24:00 and since that stopped suddenly to work Mar 21 15:24:08 I guess something "struck" your board Mar 21 15:24:24 i hadnt used the board for quite a while Mar 21 15:24:44 do you've cat? Mar 21 15:25:05 no. Mar 21 15:25:14 dog? Mar 21 15:25:38 hm, then it's not cat urine Mar 21 15:25:48 Wookie spit? Mar 21 15:25:49 * ynezz moves to the next point in his problem solving diagram Mar 21 15:26:16 i don't think poor wokkie has got something to do with it. Mar 21 15:26:25 revc4: do you have another card to try? Mar 21 16:33:24 Hi all. When I give bitbake virtual/kernel -c menuconfig, new terminal flashes infront of me and dissapears. Why?? Mar 21 16:34:03 it hates you Mar 21 16:34:16 well Mar 21 16:34:35 * mranostay been around av500 too long Mar 21 16:34:39 *has Mar 21 16:36:14 learned his trolling from the master. Mar 21 16:37:21 tess: in gnome terminal or something? Mar 21 16:39:24 gnome terminal Mar 21 16:40:46 or xterm, i tried both Mar 21 16:41:07 no the menuconfig window that pops up Mar 21 16:41:32 install a popup blocker Mar 21 16:43:04 I tried to modify bitbake.conf for use xterm and gnome-terminal Mar 21 16:44:27 * florian dislikes this feature badly since you are usually running bitbake in your preferred terminal anyway Mar 21 16:44:51 ... not speaking its "usefulness" for remote connections Mar 21 16:51:04 when terminal return: NOTE: package linux-omap-2.6.39-r102o: task do_menuconfig: Started -> run menuconfig gnome-terminal . Mar 21 16:51:41 when terminal return: NOTE: package linux-omap-2.6.39-r102o: task do_menuconfig: Succeeded the terminal closed Mar 21 16:53:25 bitbake forks a new terminal for menuconfig? Mar 21 16:53:35 yes Mar 21 16:53:44 how silly Mar 21 16:53:58 what happens if you run it in a text console? Mar 21 16:54:09 it forks a screen window? Mar 21 16:54:39 maybe it orders a new monitor from amazon Mar 21 16:55:01 or it gets the hose again. Mar 21 16:55:04 http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/49/DESQview_2.8_screenshot.jpg Mar 21 16:55:08 maybe it does that Mar 21 17:00:55 i don't know, i'm newbie Mar 21 17:03:29 * koen always runs menuconfig by hand Mar 21 17:03:39 e.g. http://www.slimlogic.co.uk/2011/05/openembeddedangstrom-kernel-workflow/ Mar 21 18:16:26 good grief, koen ... but thanks for documenting that Mar 21 18:16:50 koen: ping Mar 21 18:24:05 i just built the toolchain Mar 21 18:24:11 bitbaked I mean Mar 21 18:24:30 now i'm trying to figure out how the hell to make it run my new .bb Mar 21 18:26:31 i am having difficulty concentrating, thanks to drinking way too much caffeine today, and the fact that we broke a record high temperature here and it's the most beautiful day in YEARS Mar 21 18:28:06 sounds like you need some beer to counteract the caffeine Mar 21 18:28:49 I'm not sure that works? Mar 21 18:28:58 but you can try and find out Mar 21 18:29:12 I must have to put my .bb some magical place Mar 21 18:29:20 do I need to make a meta-chrisp ? Mar 21 18:34:16 <_av500_> get real crisps Mar 21 18:35:27 * mranostay smacks _av500_ Mar 21 18:35:55 with a trout?

Mar 21 18:39:55 * mranostay steal a Guinness from mru's fridge Mar 21 18:40:22 what? you don't like mushy peas and blood pudding? :P Mar 21 18:40:23 impossible, I didn't have any guiness Mar 21 18:41:04 we now have that exquisite dish of pink slime Mar 21 18:41:25 that seems to be falling out of fashion now Mar 21 18:41:31 maybe if you eat at fast food joints Mar 21 18:41:32 or school cafeteria Mar 21 18:41:33 there's a reasonable selection of other beer though Mar 21 18:41:49 <_av500_> not falling out of meat machines?
