**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Dec 10 02:59:58 2006 Dec 10 03:01:27 nbd * r5745 /trunk/package/base-files/files/lib/config/uci.sh: fix uci_load trash output (#1040) Dec 10 03:02:32 nbd * r5746 /packages/net/rp-pppoe/Makefile: fix rp-pppoe download location (#1039) Dec 10 03:26:36 can someone close #1027 it appears to have been fixed by r5732 Dec 10 03:29:09 thanks. closed Dec 10 03:32:50 yay, now I can update my wgt634u to use mini_fo (wasn't going to let myself do it until most of the bugs I've run into were squashed) Dec 10 03:33:24 is the wgt634u working pretty good now with kamikaze? Dec 10 03:35:23 Bartman007: can you test a patch of mine? Dec 10 03:35:33 Bartman007: http://downloads.openwrt.org/people/nbd/tmp/diag.diff Dec 10 03:35:36 (diag support) Dec 10 03:35:49 on the wgt? Dec 10 03:35:52 x-db90h_: other than the missing diag support (patch) and the incomplete atheros wifi script it should work well Dec 10 03:35:56 Bartman007: yes Dec 10 03:37:01 nbd: sure, I probably won't get around to flashing it until tomorrow, going to let off some steam now... Dec 10 03:37:08 ok Dec 10 10:21:05 florian * r5747 /packages/libs/matrixssl/patches/matrixssl-no-timex.patch: Avoid including timex.h (#1033) Dec 10 10:52:42 Hello! Anybody can help me build the /packages for -ng? Dec 10 10:54:25 <[florian]> xrg_: sure, what do you want to do ? Dec 10 10:55:05 I have got the whole openwrt and /packages dirs, through *git* and I now want to build the packages.. Dec 10 10:55:23 There 's no Config.in, however.. Am I missing something? Dec 10 10:57:10 I was trying to find out how to build the packages outside a svn workdir, and I can't find any doc there.. Dec 10 10:57:45 you have to make symlinks to packages Dec 10 10:58:04 s/packages/package Dec 10 10:58:38 say, sth like 'ln -s /path/to/packages ./openwrt/package/ ' ? Dec 10 10:58:41 xrg_: buildroot/kamikaze/package/tcpdump -> /home/jan/buildroot/packages/net/tcpdump Dec 10 10:58:56 yep Dec 10 10:59:15 xrg_: like ln -s ../packages/*/* package/ Dec 10 10:59:20 Flat, or can it be 2-level deep , like net -> package/net ? Dec 10 10:59:29 flat Dec 10 11:00:35 2nd Q: if I try that with the SDK, it keeps asking for the Config.in files. Could I ever use the SDK instead of having everything in the main workdir? Dec 10 11:01:30 no idea, sorry Dec 10 11:01:49 OK, thanks, I'll give it a try.. Dec 10 11:09:20 <[florian]> xrg_: well for the sdk, I guess you intended to use the whiterussian sdk to build packages in packages/ M Dec 10 11:09:24 <[florian]> ? Dec 10 11:13:39 Maybe.. I don't know what ver. that sdk was for.. Dec 10 11:13:47 Anyway, brb in 30min.. Dec 10 12:06:45 florian * r5748 /packages/libs/libgphoto2/patches/030-no_hal.patch: Prevent HAL from being used (#1032) Dec 10 12:48:17 Can I ask questions about package compilation here? Dec 10 12:49:14 I compile without a problem, but I get the following error when I run program on router (wrt54g): can't resolve symbol 'scanf' Dec 10 12:53:14 Any special reason why scanf doesn't work - fopen and fread work without a problem Dec 10 13:13:28 BTW: If I compile it for x86 it works just fine, so there is no error in my code. Dec 10 13:13:58 It's a simple read integer and print it out. Dec 10 19:46:56 hi xrg Dec 10 19:47:07 welcome to #openwrt-devel! Dec 10 19:47:20 hi! Dec 10 19:47:44 Trying to get back in business with embedded.. Dec 10 19:47:55 sounds good Dec 10 19:48:21 in case you're still playing with the routerboard stuff: i added some more fixes to the ethernet driver Dec 10 19:48:24 That was a necesity, anyway.. Dec 10 19:48:32 it wasn't fully stable until that patch Dec 10 19:48:41 I think i saw them in the openwrt logs.. Dec 10 19:49:09 daughterboard ethernet ports still have issues Dec 10 19:49:16 i suspect that it's the PHY acting up Dec 10 19:49:18 Let me ask you, could these fixes be merged upstream, say, for all the via-rhine chips? Dec 10 19:49:36 i need to review the patch again Dec 10 19:49:52 I was looking at the ovislink and the magicbox hardware. Dec 10 19:49:55 but i suppose i could split it up and make a part ready for upstream merging Dec 10 19:50:07 the magicbox is nice Dec 10 19:50:09 If I find some people to help, I'd like to support them.. Dec 10 19:50:16 magicbox already works Dec 10 19:50:29 nice :) Dec 10 19:50:53 and the performance is pretty good Dec 10 19:51:23 bs has ported dd-wrt to it as well, I think.. Dec 10 19:51:43 yeah, he used my patches Dec 10 19:52:23 brb.. my screen is out, again.. Dec 10 20:04:11 :S pmsuspend was quick, nfs wasn't .. Dec 10 20:13:39 nbd: what is your cut of the profits? Dec 10 20:14:28 not much Dec 10 20:22:59 nbd * r5749 /trunk/scripts/config/lxdialog/ (Makefile check-lxdialog.sh): add openbsd compatibility patch (thanks, wbx) Dec 10 21:31:54 <[florian]> re Dec 10 21:37:27 florian * r5750 /trunk/target/linux/rdc-2.6/patches/001-rdc3210_flash_map.patch: Run dos2unix on the flash map driver ;) Dec 10 21:39:18 florian * r5751 /trunk/target/linux/brcm63xx-2.6/patches/ (001-bcm963xx.patch 040-bcm963xx_flashmap.patch): Normalize patch : change MIPS_BRCM to BCM963XX Dec 10 21:41:00 florian * r5752 /trunk/target/linux/brcm63xx-2.6/config: Forgot the kernel config Dec 10 21:41:16 florian * r5753 /trunk/target/linux/brcm63xx-2.6/Makefile: brcm63xx is currently broken Dec 10 22:00:44 <[florian]> nbd: do you think we removed to many kerSys* functions from the bcm963xx code ? Dec 10 22:04:56 i don't know Dec 10 22:05:01 we should add them when we need them Dec 10 22:05:17 to keep the amount of ugly code to a minimum Dec 10 22:05:36 do you intend to do much work on bcm63xx? Dec 10 22:05:59 because i won't bother until there is some improvements in the area of usable drivers Dec 10 22:06:02 <[florian]> nbd: well I really would like getting this working, but as you know I am not at the same state as you are manipulating binary drivers and so on Dec 10 22:06:14 i think the current drivers are not usable Dec 10 22:06:34 <[florian]> then maybe we had better reversing them Dec 10 22:08:02 <[florian]> at least for the ethernet stuff, or keep looking for tarballs hoping there are sources for the enet driver somewhere, even if it is for a 2.4 kernel :D Dec 10 22:08:59 <[florian]> nbd: will you work again on bcm963xx ? Dec 10 22:09:41 not until there's some improvement in the driver area Dec 10 22:10:02 but if something happens there, i might hack on it again Dec 10 22:10:05 <[florian]> what do you mean ? you are expecting more sources, more tarballs ? Dec 10 22:10:16 i'm not expecting anything right now Dec 10 22:10:33 but we don't have the time and resources to write our own drivers from scratch Dec 10 22:10:38 and the binary ones are not usable Dec 10 22:10:59 so if nothing happens there, the work on bcm963xx is a waste of time Dec 10 22:11:37 <[florian]> well, that's right Dec 10 22:12:53 if someone wants to work on code for a dsl router platform, i'd recommend hacking on ar7-2.6 at the moment Dec 10 22:13:16 even though that's also a lot of work, at least we have enough info to bring it into an usable state Dec 10 22:13:17 <[florian]> I will buy an ar7 device Dec 10 22:13:39 if you come to 23c3, i can give you one of mine Dec 10 22:13:45 <[florian]> sometimes I really wonder if all this work done is worth Dec 10 22:13:58 which work specifically? Dec 10 22:14:05 florian * r5754 /packages/utils/strace/patches/01-linux_sigcontext.patch: Backport a debian change Dec 10 22:14:32 <[florian]> nbd: the whole openwrt project : freeing and making code work Dec 10 22:14:52 i think it is Dec 10 22:15:23 <[florian]> well, I think so too, I am just desperate to see how little help we get Dec 10 22:16:08 * crazy_imp could do ar7 testing on a w900v Dec 10 22:16:26 i guess we need to get better at finding and integrating new developers :) Dec 10 22:16:33 that's certainly an area where we could do better Dec 10 22:18:06 crazy_imp: we have enough people that test, but not enough people that code :) Dec 10 22:21:08 nbd: true, i would code, but i can't code much of the needed things, i only know java and perl (a bit) Dec 10 22:21:54 kernel stuff isn't the only thing that's required Dec 10 22:22:14 there's always some scripting or package porting work that needs to be done Dec 10 22:22:38 so if you have time and you're interested in helping, there's always lots of things that can be done Dec 10 22:24:06 <[florian]> crazy_imp: I began porting packages, and this is still what I most of the time do with openwrt Dec 10 22:24:24 and he's doing a good job on it :) Dec 10 22:24:48 i'll tell you if i have time, but now i have to do homeworks :/ Dec 10 22:25:06 <[florian]> nbd: thanks Dec 10 22:25:25 <[florian]> crazy_imp: don't worry, I have some too, you don't have per months number of commits to do ;) Dec 10 22:26:28 you mean I don't get a bonus if more than x changes get committed in a month? Dec 10 22:26:35 :-( Dec 10 22:27:23 <[florian]> Bartman007: unfortunately no, but I think [mbm] should think about that ;) Dec 10 22:27:24 :D Dec 10 22:27:58 Bartman007: the more stuff you commit, the more people will notice your work Dec 10 22:28:04 nbd: :-) Dec 10 22:28:16 <[florian]> nbd: do you think we should ship makefiles to build ccache with openwrt ? Dec 10 22:28:28 i think it's a good idea Dec 10 22:28:30 <[florian]> nbd: or check as a preriquisite if checked Dec 10 22:28:35 <[florian]> ok Dec 10 22:28:36 but they should only build ccache if it's not installed on the host Dec 10 22:28:57 <[florian]> ok Dec 10 22:49:54 florian * r5755 /branches/whiterussian/openwrt/target/linux/linux-2.4/Makefile: Fix trailing spaces (#1041) Dec 10 22:51:12 <[florian]> nbd: did you try making rdc-2.6 work back on your airlink ? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Dec 11 02:59:57 2006
