Jul 14 05:55:31 <openwatts> Does anyone know what the current status of ath5k on the ar231X atheros platform.  I would really like to start using ath5k.
Jul 14 05:55:41 <openwatts> are there any patches?
Jul 14 08:10:35 <nbd> openwatts: no progress at the moment. still waiting for somebody to pick up my patches and finish them
Jul 14 08:35:19 <acoul> hello

Jul 14 12:36:56 <swalker> hrm, xtables-addons is going to need xz package extraction support
Jul 14 12:41:49 <xMff> swalker: yeah but we agreed on repacking it and put it on mirror2
Jul 14 12:42:01 <xMff> .tar.xz is just braindead
Jul 14 12:42:24 <xMff> given the low support yet
Jul 14 13:24:24 <builder> build #78 of brcm47xx is complete: Failure [failed compile_10]  Build details are at http://tksite.gotdns.org:8010/builders/brcm47xx/builds/78

Jul 14 19:48:17 <cshore> ping nbd, xMff
Jul 14 19:55:39 <cshore> anyone know what's needed for buttons to work on brcm47xx?
Jul 14 20:00:05 <mb__> Well, a policy on what they are supposed to do
Jul 14 20:14:46 <cshore> mb__: I just meant so they generate events....
Jul 14 20:14:59 <cshore> mb__: e.g. for failsafe
Jul 14 22:12:17 <openwatts> ndb: Would you mind giving me the patches you have for the ath5k driver?  I would like to try a stab at it.  Any ideas on what the problem was?
Jul 14 22:12:50 <openwatts> for the AR231X
Jul 14 22:15:53 <nbd> http://nbd.name/ath5k-wisoc.tar.gz
Jul 14 22:16:02 <nbd> the patches will not apply anymore (they're very old)
Jul 14 22:16:10 <nbd> so they will need to be forward ported
Jul 14 22:16:27 <nbd> the problem was that i did not have time to debug all the remaining issues
Jul 14 22:17:09 <nbd> rx/tx was not working
Jul 14 22:18:44 <cshore> ping nbd
Jul 14 22:18:54 <nbd> pong
Jul 14 22:19:22 <nbd> ah, about the button thing
Jul 14 22:19:33 <nbd> the broadcom-diag tool generates hotplug events for buttons
Jul 14 22:19:35 <cshore> does the b43 driver support LP PHY now?  (I'm looking at flashing a asus wl-520gu)
Jul 14 22:19:44 <cshore> nbd: thanks, figured that out
Jul 14 22:20:17 <cshore> nbd: I think I must have confused insmod diag with  . /etc/diag.sh and removed it when I did the preinit changes
Jul 14 22:20:21 <nbd> i think b43 has some LP PHY support
Jul 14 22:20:23 <openwatts> How far back are the patches?
Jul 14 22:20:30 <nbd> openwatts: dunno, very far
Jul 14 22:20:40 <cshore> nbd: 'case lack of buttons is the reason failsafe is not working on 47xx
Jul 14 22:21:02 <nbd> ah
Jul 14 22:21:50 <cshore> nbd: I'm preparing to test adding insmod diag in preinit now.
Jul 14 22:21:57 <cshore> nbd: once I do a build that is
Jul 14 22:22:17 <openwatts> ndb: Was it transmitting anything?
Jul 14 22:25:13 <nbd> openwatts: nope
Jul 14 22:25:20 <nbd> it was trying to, though
Jul 14 22:25:27 <xMff> heh
Jul 14 22:25:29 <nbd> i saw no crashes anymore, and i did get rxeol interrupts
Jul 14 22:25:38 <nbd> that's as far as i got
Jul 14 22:25:49 <nbd> and i had reviewed most of the 2315 specific codepath
Jul 14 22:25:54 <nbd> btw. i did not handle 5312 yet
Jul 14 22:26:04 <nbd> that still has some differences
Jul 14 22:30:43 <cshore> nbd: if I use the proprietary wl driver on bcm47xx do I need to configure wireless by hand or does uci handle it?
Jul 14 22:30:54 <xMff> uci
Jul 14 22:30:59 <xMff> even gui
Jul 14 22:31:09 <xMff> same as brcm-2.4
Jul 14 22:31:18 <cshore> xMff: awesome.  I'll try that then  - never used 2.4
Jul 14 23:41:00 <CIA-38> nunojpg * r22185 /packages/net/usbip/Makefile: [packages] usbip: fix usb.ids location, rename bind_driver(8) to usbip_bind_driver(8)
Jul 15 02:46:05 <CIA-38> cshore * r22186 /trunk/target/linux/brcm47xx/base-files/lib/preinit/05_reset_button_brcm: [brcm47xx]: target (base-files): Fixed failsafe mode by adding back insmod diag
