Aug 16 04:20:13 <jkridner> hmmm.. always interesting when you google your problem and find the same error in pastebin, but no resolution. http://pastebin.com/1S1TCzt4
Aug 16 04:24:35 <KeatonT> http://www.xkcd.com/979/ jkridner
Aug 16 04:27:54 <jkridner> lol!
Aug 16 04:28:52 <KeatonT> :)
Aug 16 04:36:35 <KeatonT> Been working my rear off on a project.
Aug 16 04:36:45 <KeatonT> It's going to be pretty awesome when done.
Aug 16 04:44:45 <alan_o> so jkridner did you get anywhere on it?
Aug 16 04:45:42 <alan_o> make V=1 and the comments in scripts/basic/fixdep.c should give some clues. But that's stuff you already know :)
Aug 16 04:45:53 <alan_o> in that file though there's stuff about the .d
Aug 16 04:46:00 <alan_o> I guess that was the point
Aug 16 04:47:38 <jkridner> I just switched toolchains.
Aug 16 04:47:54 <jkridner> I was trying to use the Angstrom toolchain and just switched to the Ubuntu toolchain.
Aug 16 04:47:58 <ds2> Hmmmm
Aug 16 04:48:10 <jkridner> (both cross toolchains)
Aug 16 04:53:31 <ds2> is your FS that you are building on sane and reasonable?
Aug 16 04:56:00 <jkridner> Ubuntu 12.04.
Aug 16 04:56:18 <jkridner> pretty much stock brand new.
Aug 16 04:56:33 <jkridner> I'm trying to create some simple kernel build instructions at https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel
Aug 16 04:57:19 <_av500_> gm
Aug 16 04:57:57 <ds2> no, the filesystem where the data resides on
Aug 16 04:58:10 <ds2> it isn't anything braindead like say.... FAT32, is it?
Aug 16 04:58:21 <ds2> and do you have it mounted noatime or anything like that?
Aug 16 05:00:10 <jkridner> ext4
Aug 16 05:00:33 <jkridner> rw,errors=remount-ro
Aug 16 05:02:40 <_av500_> and your command line?
Aug 16 05:03:02 <ds2> hmm that elminates some stuff I have seen before due to FS issues
Aug 16 05:04:01 <ds2> you did check it is still writeable (i.e. no errors has occurred)?
Aug 16 05:04:09 <ds2> also, check to see if you have enough space
Aug 16 05:04:27 <ds2> a full file system can do this... check space in ., /tmp, and /var
Aug 16 05:04:43 <jkridner> _av500_: I'd show you, but github is down for maintenance. :(
Aug 16 05:05:09 <_av500_> ah
Aug 16 05:05:15 <jkridner> Just changing the toolchain made the problem go away.
Aug 16 05:05:58 <jkridner> I saved off the commands I executed at https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel, put you'll need to go back a commit or two, since I wrote over what was giving the error.
Aug 16 05:06:12 <ds2> hmmmmm which toolchain failed?
Aug 16 05:09:27 <jkridner> Angstrom
Aug 16 05:09:54 <ds2> and the working one is?
Aug 16 05:09:55 <jkridner> the 64-bit qte one at http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/toolchains
Aug 16 05:10:20 <jkridner> apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi
Aug 16 05:11:15 <ds2> Hmmm I wonder if the angstrom gcc is cutting edge or maybe linaro vs a pure gcc?
Aug 16 05:11:28 <ds2> what's the output of '-v' on both of them?
Aug 16 05:11:53 <_av500_> maybe its the new gcc++
Aug 16 05:13:49 <jkridner> I'll get back to it after I remember how to wget the am335x-pm-firmware.bin file over gitweb.
Aug 16 05:16:42 <ds2> is PM fully working on any existing bone yet?
Aug 16 05:17:43 <_av500_> Program Manager?
Aug 16 05:17:53 * jkridner found the unescaped semi
Aug 16 05:18:11 <dm8tbr> _av500_: you called me?
Aug 16 05:20:21 <jkridner> ds2: no, still only limited PM
Aug 16 05:21:03 <_av500_> dm8tbr: are you win3.1?
Aug 16 05:21:27 <dm8tbr> no but one of my job titles is "Program Damager"
Aug 16 05:22:38 <Russ> ds2, I can tell you for sure rtc-only suspend/resume is not yet working on am335x
Aug 16 05:28:36 <jkridner> interesting. github accepted my git push, but is showing old data on the web interface.
Aug 16 05:44:30 <ds2> Russ: sigh... that really limits the reasons for using that part
Aug 16 07:14:50 <jkridner> k, I now have an attempt at a dummies guide for building kernel modules using https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel
Aug 16 07:15:08 <jkridner> probably not the best quality in the world, but an attempt.
Aug 16 07:22:07 <av500> http://r-wos.org/hacks/gti
Aug 16 07:26:41 <av500> has "Gram" been ported to the beagleboard?
Aug 16 07:32:02 <ds2> you sure that wget works?
Aug 16 07:32:34 <ds2> seems like there are unescaped shell magic in there that would break some/most shells
Aug 16 07:33:56 <koen> jkridner: that's a lot longer than the setup-scripts and it fucks up the existing kernel
Aug 16 07:34:23 <koen> jkridner: so I'd rather you'd revert all that crap
Aug 16 07:34:44 <ds2> but f'ed kernels are so much fun to deal with
Aug 16 07:34:51 <jkridner> i get bugged about this every single day.
Aug 16 07:34:59 <ds2> are you depriving people of hours and hours of enjoyment?
Aug 16 07:35:10 <jkridner> the mailing list is hit over and over again with this same question.
Aug 16 07:35:13 <koen> jkridner: the point of that repo is that it's for people who know how to build a kernel
Aug 16 07:35:34 <koen> jkridner: right now you're just doing more damage
Aug 16 07:35:37 <jkridner> setup-scripts doesn't give you an easy method to create kernel modules.
Aug 16 07:35:51 <koen> jkridner: a lot easier than your crappy howto
Aug 16 07:35:55 <ds2> do not use modules
Aug 16 07:36:43 <koen> jkridner: so again: please revert all that
Aug 16 07:36:44 <jkridner> you can commit it away, but you aren't answering the questions either.
Aug 16 07:36:59 <jkridner> you have the commit rights as well.
Aug 16 07:37:57 <koen> I'd prefer people to clean up their own mess
Aug 16 07:38:00 <jkridner> the instructions on editing kernels with setup-scripts requires generating patches, which requires a lot more effort and stuff to learn.
Aug 16 07:38:13 <koen> why would you need to edit a kernel to build a module?
Aug 16 07:38:32 <koen> 'inherit module ; SRC_URI = something'
Aug 16 07:39:09 <jkridner> insert the other 1 billion steps and I'll believe you that the above is easy.
Aug 16 07:39:58 <ds2> koen: Feature request - interactive bitbake shell ;)
Aug 16 07:40:06 <koen> ds2: has been there for years
Aug 16 07:40:19 <ds2> how do you go into interactive mode?
Aug 16 07:40:20 <jkridner> Why not provide the step-by-step for setup-scripts?
Aug 16 07:40:26 <koen> jkridner: you mean the git clone ; setup ; build ?
Aug 16 07:40:46 <koen> jkridner: why didn't you?
Aug 16 07:40:49 <jkridner> add the step for hello.c?
Aug 16 07:41:02 <jkridner> because it was taking me too long to get it to work.
Aug 16 07:41:23 <jkridner> I started down that path and fell back to this because I was able to get it to work.
Aug 16 07:42:05 <jkridner> I'll see what I can do to clean-up or remove it tomorrow.  right now, I need to sleep.
Aug 16 07:42:14 <jkridner> updates welcome.
Aug 16 07:44:55 <koen> jkridner: I am *extremely* offended that after the piss-poor support I get from TI for bone you are now actively creating more work for cco
Aug 16 07:46:02 <koen> It tops the TI demand to remove any references to musb having sw problems
Aug 16 08:01:07 <koen> jkridner: instructions to (re)build the kernel are in the A6 SRM which I have been asking to get updated on the beagleboard.org website for weeks
Aug 16 08:25:03 <Russ> ds2, working on it :)
Aug 16 12:06:41 <koen> ant_work: can you tell me the pw ids you want to get applied? I'm away for a long weekend in a few hours
Aug 16 13:04:59 <ant_work> koen: sure: #34305 #34309 #34313
Aug 16 13:06:42 <ant_work> koen: about 34305 I'm not proud about reintroducing explicit RDEPENDS, I'll do better for the next klibc_2.0.2.
Aug 16 13:20:44 <koen> ant_work: pushed
Aug 16 13:59:03 <b52> hey fellas
Aug 16 13:59:15 <foobar321> Hi. Does any1 uses beagleboard cortex A8 with buildroot ? I have a problem with copying rootfs
Aug 16 13:59:33 <b52> while trying to boot my bone i get an "Incorrect magic number in EEPROM \n read_eeprom() failure" any idea whats going on?
Aug 16 13:59:33 <foobar321> It gets smaller than 4GB after dd operation :/
Aug 16 14:05:03 <av500> what has coyping a rootfs got to do with buildroot?
Aug 16 14:06:55 <foobar321> Well I can setup different options in make menuconfig for buildroot. Not sure which one should I use because there's no any instruction for it.
Aug 16 14:07:22 <foobar321> Options regarding rootfs format (cpio, and so on)
Aug 16 14:11:20 <av500> TAR should be fine
Aug 16 14:11:36 <av500> then you can untar it to your root partition
Aug 16 14:11:43 <b52> none an idea what could be wrong?
Aug 16 14:57:24 <claas_ziemke> hi, anybody in here who can help me with a question about beagleboard/omap3550 interrupt handling?
Aug 16 14:58:08 <mru> we're all busy
Aug 16 14:58:13 <mru> but maybe you can interrupt someone
Aug 16 14:58:30 <av500> +1
Aug 16 14:58:31 <thurbad> drum roll....
Aug 16 14:58:49 <av500> actually, he was polling :)
Aug 16 14:59:02 <claas_ziemke> haha ok, thx
Aug 16 14:59:30 <claas_ziemke> the problem might as well be aemu related since i use the qemu beagleboard emulation...
Aug 16 14:59:44 <mru> why would anyone do such a thing?
Aug 16 15:00:00 <claas_ziemke> because i sont have a beagleboard at hand...
Aug 16 15:00:29 <claas_ziemke> so the question is: i am using the general purpose timer in order to generate a timer interrupt every 1ms
Aug 16 15:01:25 <mru> I'd try on a real board before pulling hair
Aug 16 15:01:46 <claas_ziemke> but as soon as i unmask the specific interrupt in the INTC qemu quits with: qemu: fatal: Trying to execute code outside RAM or ROM at 0x40210000
Aug 16 15:01:46 <claas_ziemke> R00=20000113 R01=801055a0 R02=00010e97 R03=20000113
Aug 16 15:01:46 <claas_ziemke> R04=00000000 R05=00000000 R06=00000000 R07=00000000
Aug 16 15:01:46 <claas_ziemke> R08=00000000 R09=00000000 R10=00000000 R11=80104f4c
Aug 16 15:01:46 <claas_ziemke> R12=00000000 R13=80001798 R14=8000287c R15=40210000
Aug 16 15:01:46 <claas_ziemke> PSR=20000192 --C- A irq32
Aug 16 15:02:28 <claas_ziemke> oops, sorry fot the bad formating... the problem is that it tries to execute code at 0x40210000 which is reserved...
Aug 16 15:02:51 <mdp> and so you are left wondering, "is it a bug in what I'm doing or a bug in the qemu representation of my hardware?"
Aug 16 15:02:57 <mdp> point to mru
Aug 16 15:03:27 <claas_ziemke> exactly :-)
Aug 16 15:03:37 <mru> so get a real board
Aug 16 15:04:18 <claas_ziemke> thanks for the advice, but currently thats not an option... or put that way: thats a long term option, but not a shortterm
Aug 16 15:04:42 <mru> if real hardware is not an option, wtf are you doing?
Aug 16 15:05:16 <claas_ziemke> i read in the omap trm that there is a ROM and a RAM exception vector... shouldnt that be the addresses where the code should jump to?
Aug 16 15:06:07 <mru> full system emulation only makes sense in two cases: 1) running ancient software with no source code and no hardware available, and 2) early development work on new hardware that doesn't exist yet
Aug 16 15:06:20 <av500> mru: and cross compiling :)
Aug 16 15:06:42 <mru> av500: even if that were a good idea, you don't need to emulate the full system
Aug 16 15:06:55 <mru> instruction set emulation makes sense a few more situations
Aug 16 15:07:02 <mru> and is much easier to get right
Aug 16 15:07:19 <claas_ziemke> the project is to develop a bosrdsupportpackage for the RTEMS os for the BEagleBoard
Aug 16 15:07:33 <mru> to do that, you need an actual beagleboard
Aug 16 15:07:37 <av500> claas_ziemke: and you have no interrupt setup so far?
Aug 16 15:07:48 <av500> so check your IRQ vectors
Aug 16 15:08:14 <mdp> claas_ziemke: sounds like you need to debug qemu since as you noticed, it's vectoring to a region in the memory map that's reserved.
Aug 16 15:08:36 <av500> i'd still look at where IRQ points to...
Aug 16 15:08:54 <claas_ziemke> ok, as i understand the behavior should be that the code jumps to the address stored in the exception vector right?
Aug 16 15:09:16 <av500> there is also that VBR no?
Aug 16 15:09:23 <av500> vector base register or so
Aug 16 15:09:25 <av500> iirc
Aug 16 15:09:50 <claas_ziemke> yes its c12 right?
Aug 16 15:10:10 <av500> since you are porting RTEMS, there should be code to handle interrupts I guess
Aug 16 15:10:28 <claas_ziemke> there is...
Aug 16 15:11:00 <claas_ziemke> but qemu quits before anything can happen in the RTEMS ISR subsystem...
Aug 16 15:11:24 <mru> get a beagleboard and a jtag
Aug 16 15:11:35 <claas_ziemke> mru: i got that...
Aug 16 15:11:42 <claas_ziemke> i mean ur advice :-)
Aug 16 15:11:53 <mru> good
Aug 16 15:12:09 <claas_ziemke> mru: as i said... i will... but i thought there might be some other advice...
Aug 16 15:12:27 <av500> still, check the interrupt vector setup
Aug 16 15:12:41 <av500> and/or run linux and compare
Aug 16 15:13:59 <claas_ziemke> av500 thx, linux is runnig flawlessly as far as i know and tried... might have to give it another look... so can u maybe give me some pointers on where to find more info about the interrupt vector setup?
Aug 16 15:14:32 <av500> linux kernel source code
Aug 16 15:14:40 <av500> and or ARM literature
Aug 16 15:15:30 <claas_ziemke> ok, so i am not stupid... thats what i am already reading...
Aug 16 15:15:47 <av500> nobody claimed that :)
Aug 16 15:16:22 <claas_ziemke> haha i know... that was just for myself :-0
Aug 16 15:16:58 <av500> grah "Nokia Researcher Puts Firefox OS On Raspberry Pi - Slashdot »" ... a computer RUNS software!!!!1!1!1 film at 11.....
Aug 16 15:19:27 <mru> I find this trend of calling browsers an OS disturbing
Aug 16 15:19:45 <av500> and the most stupid^H^H^H^H^Hinsightful comment is "but it has only 256MB..."
Aug 16 15:20:09 <av500> its not going on sale tomorrow
Aug 16 15:21:15 <jelmer_> anyone knows whats going on with the angstrom feeds?
Aug 16 15:21:27 <jelmer_> opkg is giving me 404's on everything
Aug 16 15:22:23 <jelmer_> it tries to pull r15a but in the feed there's r15b
Aug 16 15:22:30 <jelmer_> i did opkg update
Aug 16 15:23:08 <mdp> av500, he ported it to RPi?
Aug 16 15:23:24 <mdp> he/she/it
Aug 16 15:24:16 <av500> *it* rubs the lotion on its skin
Aug 16 15:24:33 <mdp> heh
Aug 16 16:04:33 <av500> prpplague: prp^2: yeah, that was for you :)
Aug 16 16:04:40 <prpplague> av500: hehe
Aug 16 16:04:48 <prpplague> av500: i figured as much
Aug 16 16:04:57 <prpplague> av500: can't listen to it atm
Aug 16 16:05:05 <prpplague> av500: but i read the lyrics
Aug 16 16:25:06 <John____> newbie here.  I just received a Beagle Bone and want to play around with prototyping a breadboard.  May I have some help by way of recommendations to outfit a workbench?
Aug 16 16:26:29 <John____> I basically would like to order some resistor & capacitor kits from Jameco so I have parts at hand and could use some help on what to select.
Aug 16 16:28:30 <av500> hmm
Aug 16 16:28:45 <av500> you have an idea what you want to do?
Aug 16 16:29:29 <John____> i want to measure sensor data (temperature, light, moisture), possibly play with some video inputs.
Aug 16 16:29:47 <av500> the bone has no video inouts
Aug 16 16:29:50 <av500> inputs
Aug 16 16:29:54 <av500> unless you use USB
Aug 16 16:30:49 <John____> I realize the sensors are special order.  i just don't want to order a sensor, then find I should have a 2k resistor needed.  I guess my problem is that they have 1/4 watt, 1/2 watt series.
Aug 16 16:31:31 <Iroquois_Pliskin> Hello I am back again and a big time newbie, I really need some insight and help with coding between an ADC and a beagleboard rev c4 using the SPI on the expansion header.  As for coding I am using python, but c can also work too
Aug 16 16:32:12 <John____> I was going to take inventory of various how tos and build up a list of components, so of a starter set if you will.  I was hoping someone might have an answer like: just get the 1/4 watt resisotr variety pack and you'll have basically all you need.
Aug 16 16:32:41 <av500> well, 1/4 W is fine for most use cases
Aug 16 16:32:53 <av500> but again, I'd look at what you want to connect first
Aug 16 16:33:10 <av500> have a look at sparkfun and also at all the existing beagle bone capes
Aug 16 16:33:13 <av500> there are like 20 now
Aug 16 16:33:27 <av500> even if you dont buy any, most should have schematics to look and learn from
Aug 16 16:34:04 <John____> 1/4 w .. that's helpful to know.  Will do on the sparkfun.  thanks.  (I work 2 blocks away from Jameco, but live 70 miles away from work, so I have to plan ahead)
Aug 16 16:42:24 <mranostay> John____: so you have to plan to work? :P
Aug 16 16:46:20 <John____> yes, my plan to is read-up more and start taking notes with a spreadsheet listing components.  I'd like to see if I can create a "here's-what'you'll-need" component list to get started.  Nothing interrupts an effort more than being gated because you do not have the right part at hand.
Aug 16 16:46:54 <John____> the tutorials at SparkFun look to be an excellent resource.
Aug 16 16:48:14 <John____> hmmm... what would really be sweet is if each tutorial had an XML components list that is fed into a database so queries could be made to build inventory lists.
Aug 16 16:48:33 <John____> <---- works at a database company.
Aug 16 16:49:14 <mranostay> hmm i wonder which one :)
Aug 16 16:50:08 <mranostay> is it one that took the "Sun" away? :)
Aug 16 16:50:19 <John____> thank you for your help and inspiration.  I must return to the galley.  cheers.
Aug 16 16:51:23 <av500> mranostay: ah you are here, so I can go home :)
Aug 16 16:53:03 <Andi_> hello! ;D
Aug 16 16:53:33 <scromp> http://goo.gl/maps/kDalj
Aug 16 16:53:58 <av500> scromp: well stalked
Aug 16 16:54:08 * scromp tips hat
Aug 16 17:28:57 <mranostay> av500: handing off the trolling baton?
Aug 16 17:29:10 <mranostay> doubles as race relay and cluebat :)
Aug 16 17:33:08 <mdp> mranostay, most recipients of cluebat bashing are wearing +5 armour of cluelessness so it's ineffective
Aug 16 17:53:26 <jelmer_> no one having any problem with the opkg feed for the beaglebone?
Aug 16 18:59:56 <osu> Hi, I'm still having trouble running mkcard.txt. I keep getting this error:
Aug 16 19:00:16 <osu> ./dev/sdc1 is apparently in use by the system will not make a filesystem here!
Aug 16 19:00:47 <osu> It seems to be pretty common among people trying to set up raid systems but I can't find a solution
Aug 16 19:01:20 <osu> I've tried multiple computers, sd cards, and mkcard.txt versions. Always get the same thing
Aug 16 19:03:55 <urdomainis4sale> hello
Aug 16 19:04:16 <urdomainis4sale> anyone here realize that beagleboard.org is currently listed at auction?
Aug 16 19:06:52 <urdomainis4sale> guess not...
Aug 16 19:08:16 <urdomainis4sale> beagleboard.org - currently 13 bids - $237... sounds like a steal
Aug 16 19:08:23 <urdomainis4sale> 1 day left.
Aug 16 19:08:44 <agmlego> urdomainis4sale: Stop spamming and get the fuck out of here. Go away, no one likes you.
Aug 16 19:09:27 <urdomainis4sale> im not spamming you fucktard... im trying to let you know that your domain is expired and is listed for sale at godaddy auctions
Aug 16 19:09:38 <urdomainis4sale> hell, i might even buy it..
Aug 16 19:11:13 <agmlego> Not my domain, and I sincerely doubt it. Go away now or I will have you banned.
Aug 16 19:12:05 <urdomainis4sale> why the hell would i lie? i have nothing to gain. don't believe me, look at https://auctions.godaddy.com/trpItemListing.aspx?miid=77141388&isc=cjcdplink
Aug 16 19:14:53 <urdomainis4sale> that shut you up real quick didn't it... lol..
Aug 16 19:17:46 <agmlego> No, I have better things to be doing with my workday than spamming IRC channels with fake notices of domain auctions. Seriously, just go away.
Aug 16 19:19:17 <nezZarioz> i heard there was a troll here
Aug 16 19:19:20 <urdomainis4sale> seriously, are you retarded? click the link and you will see this shit listed for sale at auction by godaddy
Aug 16 19:22:37 <urdomainis4sale> funny how much of a jackass you will look like in the next day or whenever the new owner (possibly me) changes the domains A records
Aug 16 19:23:25 <urdomainis4sale> actually, more like 5 days since it will take around 5 days for godaddy to release the domain to me after I win the auction
Aug 16 19:24:13 <nezZario> well the one you told me to buy took 2 weeks
Aug 16 19:24:14 <nezZario> :)
Aug 16 19:24:55 <urdomainis4sale> 2 weeks? damn.. usually takes around 5 days for me
Aug 16 19:25:30 <nezZario> btw these things are cool.. it's like a beefed up raspberry pi that you can actually order and receive within a 6 month timeframe
Aug 16 19:26:55 <osu> can I get any feedback on the aforementioned problem I'm having?
Aug 16 19:28:19 <urdomainis4sale> yes, buy a new board.. wait a couple days and you can click on the affiliate link that I plan on putting up on my newest website :P
Aug 16 19:28:46 <agmlego> osu: Try deleting any partitions on the card with a tool like gparted, and try again.
Aug 16 19:31:01 <osu> agmlego: I've done that several times. Gparted always shows an error on the first partition (boot) after running the script.
Aug 16 19:31:43 <agmlego> osu: On multiple cards on multiple computers?
Aug 16 19:31:56 <agmlego> osu: Are you using the same reader for all of them?
Aug 16 19:33:13 <osu> yes, it's the only one I have unfortunately. A USB adapter.
Aug 16 19:33:18 <djlewis> bad readers are a pain in the arse
Aug 16 19:33:39 <agmlego> osu: I would think then that it is a bad reader. Try a new one.
Aug 16 19:34:08 <djlewis> osu: always try different cards and readers when in doubt
Aug 16 19:34:55 <osu> ok. I think I have a laptop with an SD card reader I can try
Aug 16 19:35:13 <djlewis> osu: just for grins, I have initialized suspect sd cards in windoze xp and formatted and made them usable again.
Aug 16 19:35:41 <osu> I'll try that if the other reader doesn't help. Thanks.
Aug 16 19:35:50 <djlewis> I know pwoplw, it makes no sense to me either
Aug 16 19:36:00 <djlewis> s/pwoplw/people
Aug 16 19:36:05 <agmlego> osu: Or if you have a camera that takes SD cards, you can use that to format the card.
Aug 16 19:37:58 <urdomainis4sale> so which board do you think I should 301 redirect this site to next week? any other boards you guys like?
Aug 16 19:39:07 <urdomainis4sale> perhaps i should just sign-up as an amazon affiliate and automatically list all available boards...
Aug 16 19:39:33 <urdomainis4sale> so many choices how I should make money off this domain
Aug 16 19:54:30 <osu> it appears it actually is for sale...
Aug 16 19:58:23 <djlewis> someone forget to pay the bill ;)
Aug 16 19:59:29 <Riastradh> Whoever is responsible for paying the bill should consider transferring to a registrar that isn't a bunch of unscrupulous scumbags...
Aug 16 19:59:38 <nezZario> +1 to that
Aug 16 20:02:12 <djlewis> what? whats wrong with whose yo daddy?
Aug 16 20:02:22 <djlewis> :)
Aug 16 20:29:17 <urdomainis4sale> Riastradh: I think it's too late to simply pay the bill. This domain is at auction with 13 bids and only has 1 day left.. the owners only shot at this point is to win the auction.
Aug 16 20:29:48 <urdomainis4sale> or buy it off the new owner for 10 times the winning bid.
Aug 16 20:30:48 <nezZario> it's in redemption
Aug 16 20:31:03 <nezZario> you can pay godaddy $80-$100 depending on badly they want to rob you and it can be renewed
Aug 16 20:31:46 <urdomainis4sale> idk... thought that the redemption period was right before they list it at auction
Aug 16 20:32:57 <urdomainis4sale> plus, you'd have hope to get a reply from their support within the next 24 hours, and hope that they take it down from auction in time
Aug 16 20:33:49 <nezZario> nah, they would have to renew it themselves
Aug 16 20:33:56 <nezZario> unless it's PENDING DELETE
Aug 16 20:34:00 <urdomainis4sale> heh, its got private registration.. can't even try to contact the owner
Aug 16 20:34:34 <urdomainis4sale> dude spent the extra $5 to make the domain private but couldn't pay the $10 renewal fee
Aug 16 20:34:53 <nezZario> doesn't even look like it's in redemption
Aug 16 20:35:18 <nezZario> actually, i'm really confused.. if you look at the registration info it does not expire until oct 12th
Aug 16 20:35:25 <nezZario> so maybe beagleboards is just selling out?
Aug 16 20:36:01 <urdomainis4sale> hmm, maybe...
Aug 16 20:36:19 <nezZario> Expiration Date:09-Oct-2012 16:36:00 UTC
Aug 16 20:36:35 <urdomainis4sale> but that doesn't make sense either since he could get thousands by selling the whole company with the domain at flippa
Aug 16 20:36:55 <nezZario> it's against ICANN policy for them to magically add a few months to registration
Aug 16 20:37:11 <nezZario> afaik - could be wrong
Aug 16 20:37:19 <nezZario> so maybe it's already in godaddy's possession
Aug 16 20:37:38 <urdomainis4sale> idk.. someone on here is still tweeting, writing blog posts, etc..
Aug 16 20:37:51 <urdomainis4sale> doesn't look like the company is dead..
Aug 16 20:38:11 <nezZario> yeah maybe whoever had posession of the domain just got sick/died/whatever and no one noticed the domain reg...
Aug 16 21:07:00 <pastjean> i want to make a patch to the kernel. does someone has a good tutorial on how to do it. i found some but things differ on every one of them

Aug 16 21:32:15 <wmat> djlewis: i'd love to buy it all, but am presently between contracts :(
Aug 16 21:33:43 <djlewis> wmat: for years I thought i'd have my own little museum but I lost interest.
Aug 16 21:35:06 <wmat> djlewis: yeah, i know how it goes. I have boxes of stuff in my garage that I wish I had time to do something with.
Aug 16 21:35:42 <djlewis> yeah, I bought and used most of this stuff and have being storing it for more than 30 years
Aug 16 21:36:19 <mranostay> is everyone old in here? :)

Aug 16 21:38:08 <ds2> wmat: but when you are on a contract, you have no time for it ;)

Aug 16 21:41:16 <wmat> djlewis: do you have a link to your forum post? the url you mentioned seems to be wrong
Aug 16 21:41:34 <djlewis> wmat: yeah but it says the same as I posted above.
Aug 16 21:41:57 <djlewis> wmat: http://www.vintage-computer.com/vcforum/showthread.php?31017-S-100-Altair-plus-items-pulled-from-storage-4-sale
Aug 16 21:42:13 <wmat> no 's'
Aug 16 21:43:36 * djlewis setup a ebay sellers account years ago. Might ought to use it for this.
Aug 16 21:48:56 <djlewis> darn'd storm skirted around my property :(
Aug 16 21:59:10 <urdomainis4sale> beagleboard.org bid jumped up to $405
Aug 16 23:59:01 <KeatonT> I could really use a good web designer/developer.
Aug 17 00:10:01 <pastjean> is there a way to have the kernel code with all patches applied ? (i want to have the beaglebone_cape_setup function in the code)
Aug 17 00:18:42 <mranostay> heh
Aug 17 00:19:01 <mranostay> git cherry-pick all-the-world
Aug 17 00:50:28 <nezZario> did anyone ever get the domain expiration thing sorted?
Aug 17 01:02:44 <mranostay> nezZario: eh?
Aug 17 02:13:41 <jakeday> w|zzy: you around?
Aug 17 02:13:49 <w|zzy> yes
Aug 17 02:13:55 <jakeday> got the lcd7
Aug 17 02:14:14 <w|zzy> I see :D
Aug 17 02:14:16 <w|zzy> happy?
Aug 17 02:14:34 <jakeday> doesn't work with my beaglebone! doesn't come on at all!
Aug 17 02:14:35 <jakeday> lol
Aug 17 02:14:43 <jakeday> works with stock though, so now i got to work on it
Aug 17 02:14:44 <jakeday> lol
Aug 17 02:14:50 <w|zzy> Ahh.. good..
Aug 17 02:14:56 <w|zzy> driver issue probably
Aug 17 02:15:00 <jakeday> it's actually better than i thought it'd be
Aug 17 02:15:02 <w|zzy> rev5 i think has the drivers
Aug 17 02:15:14 <w|zzy> Its pretty nice quality
Aug 17 02:15:16 <jakeday> yeah, recompiled the kernel with latest source, haven't tried it yet
Aug 17 02:15:19 <jakeday> yes it is
Aug 17 02:15:26 <jakeday> i loaded the angstrom with gnome and works great
Aug 17 02:15:41 <jakeday> it is kinda odd, though
Aug 17 02:15:48 <w|zzy> the default gnome image comes with xmbc.. You can somewhat watch youtube on it
Aug 17 02:16:03 <jakeday> i have the a5 beaglebone... were the older ones different in regards to layout?
Aug 17 02:16:11 <jakeday> the ethernet port almost gets in the way
Aug 17 02:16:15 <w|zzy> Dont believe so.
Aug 17 02:16:19 <jakeday> odd
Aug 17 02:16:20 <w|zzy> it does.. but it works regardless..
Aug 17 02:16:23 <jakeday> yeha
Aug 17 02:16:25 <jakeday> yeah
Aug 17 02:16:26 <jakeday> it works
Aug 17 02:16:30 <jakeday> thank you!
Aug 17 02:16:32 <w|zzy> the pins are about 1mm hanging out
Aug 17 02:16:41 <w|zzy> dont thank me.. you paid for it :P
Aug 17 02:17:01 <w|zzy> Im just glad it all went off without a hitch.
Aug 17 02:17:02 <jakeday> thank you for deciding to sell it then!
Aug 17 02:17:08 <w|zzy> nw
Aug 17 02:17:18 <w|zzy> Hopefully it will get more use in your hands
Aug 17 02:17:21 <jakeday> i was wondering how long customs was gonna hold it lol
Aug 17 02:17:59 <jakeday> i have a project i'm working on that comes in two forms, one with screen and one without. without is done, so i needed to get a lcd cape
Aug 17 02:18:17 <jakeday> funny thing is you were offering it the same night i was looking for reviews in here
Aug 17 02:18:18 <jakeday> lol
Aug 17 02:18:27 <w|zzy> nice!
Aug 17 02:18:31 <w|zzy> conveniant.
Aug 17 02:18:34 <jakeday> very
Aug 17 02:19:02 <w|zzy> Hopefully it doesnt cause too much stress getting it working.
Aug 17 02:19:12 <w|zzy> Its probably just the driver though.
Aug 17 02:19:14 <jakeday> nah, it'll be fine
Aug 17 02:19:33 <jakeday> yeah, i was using a 3.2.11 i believe, and i see that 3.2.18 added the support
Aug 17 02:19:47 <jakeday> probably gonna try to update to 3.6 anyway
Aug 17 02:19:57 <jakeday> kernel, that is
Aug 17 02:20:46 <w|zzy> May as well at the moment
Aug 17 02:21:17 <jakeday> yeah
Aug 17 02:21:21 <jakeday> we'll see
Aug 17 02:21:33 <jakeday> important thing is it works and i know i can just compile the newer source
Aug 17 02:21:37 <jakeday> it's all good
Aug 17 02:22:10 <w|zzy> Then when its commercially ok you can show me what you are making :P
Aug 17 02:23:40 <jakeday> yep
Aug 17 02:29:57 <w|zzy> Cheers
Aug 17 02:39:40 <w|zzy> :P
