**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Jun 20 02:59:57 2006 Jun 20 03:58:47 03rwhitby 07org.oe.dev * rf5d71eb5... 10/packages/linux/ (4 files): ixp4xx-kernel: Added 2.6.17, and enabled the patches and defconfig to be pulled from svn. Jun 20 03:59:34 That 2.6.17 kernel builds with gcc 4.1 - testing it now. Jun 20 03:59:53 * emte wonders why Jun 20 04:00:08 then thinks , oh yeah WE stablize for embedded devices :P Jun 20 04:00:44 actually the stablization stuff should become interesting Jun 20 04:01:12 i guess it depends how broken the kernel crew lets things go Jun 20 04:05:03 Linux version 2.6.17 (rwhitby@sarge) (gcc version 4.1.1) #1 PREEMPT Tue Jun 20 6 Jun 20 04:06:55 * emte waits to se how long it takes for rwhitby's box to crash Jun 20 04:07:28 actually i am not sure how much effect an unstablized kernel will have for general users Jun 20 04:10:20 emte: well, in this case I (and the other nslu2-linux core team devs) am the kernel crew :-) Jun 20 04:10:57 Now the kernel boots, time to get the Intel ixp modules to build ... Jun 20 04:19:20 emte: lol Jun 20 05:04:14 03rwhitby 07org.oe.dev * r0d094c5c... 10/packages/ (4 files in 4 dirs): ixp4xx, ixp425-eth: Updated for 2.6.17 kernel (MODULE_PARM now removed) Jun 20 05:04:24 03rwhitby 07org.oe.dev * r77ddba42... 10/conf/distro/slugos.conf: slugos.conf: Updated default kernel to 2.6.17 Jun 20 05:49:15 * thejapa hits head in the wall really hard Jun 20 07:22:13 morning Jun 20 07:22:27 morning hrw Jun 20 07:24:44 hrw: have you had problems building orinoco-modules from the 354x metadata? Jun 20 07:25:02 hvontres: no Jun 20 07:25:39 hvontres: but I do not remember when last time I built them Jun 20 07:25:53 hmmm, need to dig into that one some more then.. tried to build a 2.6 poodle image last night and it failed on those.. Jun 20 07:26:20 hvontres: all 2.6 zauruses use orinoco from kernel not from orinoco-modules Jun 20 07:27:04 so I guess I need to figure out how orinoco-modules-0.15rc2-r9 was added to task-bootstap then.. Jun 20 07:27:24 probably poodle 2.6 config still want them (not cleaned) Jun 20 07:27:35 (checking) Jun 20 07:28:18 bingo.. do I still need hostap-modules or can I get rid of those too? Jun 20 07:29:05 nevermind, those built fine. Jun 20 07:29:22 hostap-modules also from kernel Jun 20 07:30:46 thanks. Jun 20 07:32:45 well, monotone is almost done... Ohh the joy of a dual PII-333 :) I am off to bed Jun 20 07:33:58 hvontres|afk: nice machine ;) Jun 20 07:34:54 hey, they were gonna toss it at work... only the best mid-90's equipment for me..:) Beats my Pentium 233 Laptop :) Jun 20 07:38:14 ;)) Jun 20 07:40:16 speed monsters Jun 20 07:40:23 morning all Jun 20 07:40:32 Ok Monotone is done...

Jun 20 07:46:14 do13_: I did not added wrt54 stuff Jun 20 07:46:30 do13_: flash openwrt and then use OE to build extra packages for it ;) Jun 20 07:46:51 ok. Jun 20 07:47:11 there is a new distro maybe we can point them in out direction Jun 20 07:47:31 our direction Jun 20 07:47:46 www.freewrt.org Jun 20 07:49:30 morning all Jun 20 07:49:39 hey Richard Jun 20 07:50:57 hi RP Jun 20 07:51:00 do13_: interesting Jun 20 07:53:14 hrw|work: this is the background: http://openbsd-geek.de/archives/224-An-open-letter-to-the-OpenWrt-community.html Jun 20 07:53:17 do13_: it base on openwrt so probably will not want to go to OE Jun 20 07:57:07 morning Jun 20 07:57:19 morning XOrA Jun 20 07:57:26 hrw|work: well, we should talk to this guys Jun 20 07:57:30 hi XOrA Jun 20 08:03:45 do13_: added comment Jun 20 08:03:51 ~seen koen Jun 20 08:04:05 koen was last seen on IRC in channel #oe, 7h 33m 23s ago, saying: 'hey chouimat '. Jun 20 08:04:14 hi all Jun 20 08:16:51 morning morning Jun 20 08:19:07 does anyone know when the gnu toolchain for arm-linux-gnueabi will support armv4t machines? Jun 20 08:21:49 myopiate: I'm not sure its a high priority for the people working on the toolchain :-/ Jun 20 08:22:39 I'll just have to live without it then :'( Jun 20 08:24:50 grr bloody 3way meld always messes up Jun 20 08:29:34 bbiab Jun 20 08:46:40 I too often forgot that google SoC has wrong name for my student... Jun 20 08:56:02 hrw|work: I had to chuckle at the accidental SoC email Jun 20 08:59:29 hi liam Jun 20 08:59:34 morning all Jun 20 08:59:34 hey liam Jun 20 08:59:53 hey lrg Jun 20 08:59:59 * hrw|work neeed koen Jun 20 09:00:07 and his reset monkey Jun 20 09:00:24 then will lart JustinP's toys badly Jun 20 09:00:45 XorA, Could you come done to Wolfson after work one night this week. I want to fix the c7x0 audio problem. Jun 20 09:01:06 ~kill edb-native Jun 20 09:01:07 lrg: yes, how about thurs? Jun 20 09:01:09 * ibot shoots a super-inverse pseudoproton gun at edb-native Jun 20 09:01:14 lrg: wife is out that night Jun 20 09:01:34 lrg: I am totally stupid, Ive been past your office on the 22 millions of times, It just never clicked Jun 20 09:01:44 last time edb-native started thousands of gtk-config - ewi got nearly 20k processes working Jun 20 09:01:49 XorA, Thursday is fine, what time suits you ? Jun 20 09:01:57 lrg: Ill finish here at 5 Jun 20 09:02:11 XorA, np Jun 20 09:03:38 lrg: so I just come to door and ask for you? Jun 20 09:04:30 XorA: yes, I'll let the reception know you are coming.

Jun 20 09:06:02 lrg: Could it be there was a problem matching the frequency on the wm8750? Jun 20 09:06:45 RP: I think so. I'll test this soon on my terrier Jun 20 09:07:18 lrg: You comment about mplayer's alsa support is itneresting. ALSA support in madplay is also broken Jun 20 09:08:09 lrg: I suspec the problem with the c7x0 is we're connecting an input to an output and getting feedback Jun 20 09:08:34 RP: ah, yes. that's probably it Jun 20 09:09:15 lrg: Since I can hear it, the input side of things must be using the wrong channel Jun 20 09:15:21 morning Jun 20 09:24:29 OK, I really can't get OE working now. I have rm'ed tmp and org.openembedded.dev, checked out the latter again from monotone and restarted compilation. Here is the result: http://oe.pastebin.com/720479 What shall I do now? Jun 20 09:28:34 hrw|work: Is there any reason we couldn't set ENABLE_BINARY_LOCALE_GENERATION ?= "1" in openzaurus-3.5.4.1.conf? Jun 20 09:34:23 If there were any replies to my problem, sorry I missed them. Jun 20 09:34:36 Laibsch: looks like disk corruption Jun 20 09:34:50 Does it? Jun 20 09:35:07 Wow, I'll reboot and e2fsck. Jun 20 09:35:13 And fast ;-) Jun 20 09:35:26 Laibsch: I get shite like that when my amd64 and ext3 start to disagree Jun 20 09:41:08 Anyone know anything about this: Jun 20 09:41:11 File "", line 19, in tinder_build_start Jun 20 09:41:11 TypeError: unpack non-sequence Jun 20 09:44:23 RP: I can do that - but prefer to not do it Jun 20 09:45:06 hrw|work: Its causing people trying to use the tree a lot of confusing but I can understand that... Jun 20 09:45:46 RP: I was thinking about adding check for gcc-3.3/3.4 into distro conf Jun 20 09:47:00 hrw|work: sanity.conf might be a better place? Jun 20 09:47:20 (and only if ENABLE_BINARY_LOCALE_GENERATION is set) Jun 20 09:47:27 RP: good idea Jun 20 09:47:38 ~lart me for killing ewi with ebd-native Jun 20 09:47:38 * ibot drops a humongous exploding nuke on hrw|work for killing ewi with ebd-native Jun 20 10:11:39 morning guys Jun 20 10:11:55 hrw|work: been there, done that. edb-native sucks. killed my build machine three times Jun 20 10:12:21 mickey|fifa2006: I killed ewi twice with it Jun 20 10:12:34 mickey|fifa2006, JustinP: I will drop edb-native from .oz354x probably Jun 20 10:12:38 hi mickey|fifa2006 Jun 20 10:12:45 hrw|work: newer edb-native seem to fix the bug. i have no problems with 1.0.5.007 Jun 20 10:12:48 hey pb_ Jun 20 10:13:02 hrw|work: or try removing gtk-config from the build machine Jun 20 10:13:29 do13,hrw|work: just commented on that freewrt blog entry Jun 20 10:13:36 mickey|fifa2006: if I will build gtk1.2 before then I will have it in staging... Jun 20 10:15:08 mickey|fifa2006: use vanille-media.de url when commenting ;) Jun 20 10:15:19 hrw|work: ah darn Jun 20 10:15:19 hi mickey|fifa2006 Jun 20 10:15:20 habits! Jun 20 10:15:27 hrw|work: will try to remember :) Jun 20 10:15:55 hrw|work: need to find the time to migrate everything over and then vanille.de will be an alias to vanille-media.de Jun 20 10:17:05 pb_: how do you rate the performance of your fifa2006 team? are you interested at all? :) Jun 20 10:17:59 mickey|fifa2006: heh. I'm not terribly interested, but our performance seems fairly poor so far. Jun 20 10:18:24 *nod* not like a couple of years ago. perhaps they'll get better once they get further Jun 20 10:18:42 wb hrw Jun 20 10:18:45 wb Laibsch Jun 20 10:18:53 lots of discussion on the radio a few days ago about whether England could win the world cup without Wayne Rooney. which. frankly, seems like a futile discussion since I doubt they can win it even _with_ Rooney. Jun 20 10:18:58 moin mickey|fifa2006 Jun 20 10:19:08 mickey|fifa2006: yah, let's hope Jun 20 10:19:14 mickey|fifa2006: no need to tell 'wb' - my network connection is .... Jun 20 10:19:14 mickey|fifa2006: Still watching the game? ;-) Jun 20 10:19:34 Laibsch: looped playback ;) Jun 20 10:19:47 Laibsch: heh. not exactly... more like preparing for 16:00 :D Jun 20 10:20:05 early bird catches the worm Jun 20 10:23:54 hmm could england meet germany in the next round ? Jun 20 10:24:15 yeah Jun 20 10:25:51 iirc, england have to play the winner of group a in the first knockout round, iirc Jun 20 10:25:55 oops, too many iircs Jun 20 10:25:57 hail zecke Jun 20 10:26:24 pb_: hey, you will play against germany Jun 20 10:26:42 zecke: anything changed in tinderclient which could be causing our builds to fail? Jun 20 10:26:43 yeah, that's how it seems Jun 20 10:26:44 and I hope you will be polite guests, and lose... Jun 20 10:26:54 zecke: the second part seems inevitable. not so sure about the first part. Jun 20 10:27:20 rwhitby: not that I would know, I have been too busy to break anything Jun 20 10:27:32 This mean anything to you?: Jun 20 10:27:36 File "", line 19, in tinder_build_start Jun 20 10:27:54 TypeError: unpack non-sequence Jun 20 10:28:02 wait a second Jun 20 10:28:20 rwhitby: did you change the local.conf? Jun 20 10:28:25 nope Jun 20 10:28:58 I did have to blow away the openembedded dir and re-checkout Jun 20 10:29:16 (had a monotone merge which could not be done automatic, and I *never* do manual merges. Jun 20 10:29:26 but the tmp dirs didn't change Jun 20 10:29:26 hi zecke Jun 20 10:29:37 hmm Jun 20 10:29:59 rwhitby: ewi is overloaded Jun 20 10:30:18 zecke: I haven't tried it without tinderclient yet - just checking to see if you had any initial ideas before I dig deeper. Jun 20 10:30:31 hrw|work: yes? Jun 20 10:30:48 rwhitby: ah okay, it might fail to connect ewi... Jun 20 10:30:55 (we don't pull from ewi) Jun 20 10:31:02 oh, tinderclient. right. Jun 20 10:31:02 rwhitby: tbox is on ewi Jun 20 10:31:38 it does hang for a *very* long time before giving that error. Jun 20 10:31:50 rwhitby: ah yeah, I see it Jun 20 10:32:10 rwhitby: tinder_http_post after not connecting to ewi five times Jun 20 10:32:28 it returns 'void' and that is not a 5 tuple :} Jun 20 10:32:58 rwhitby: probably just turn, tinderclient off for now Jun 20 10:33:40 ok Jun 20 10:34:25 ~lart physics assignments... Jun 20 10:34:25 * ibot acting on orders from an unspecified client drags physics assignments... into court suing for $200 million Jun 20 10:34:37 this stupid teacher doesn't get the units right... Jun 20 10:34:48 zecke: thanks for the quick debug. tinderclient turned off for nslu2-linux. Jun 20 10:37:37 hrw|work: can you reach ewi at all? Jun 20 10:37:48 hrw|work: I think -j 300 is too much for it? Jun 20 10:38:09 zecke: j4 but its edb-native and I'm trying to reach it all morning Jun 20 10:39:33 hrw|work: I hope my screens are not gone when you are done ;) Jun 20 10:40:11 zecke: I suspect OOM war there Jun 20 10:40:52 :( Jun 20 10:45:46 Hi, what will be a clever name for packages which are non debain alice(eg base, etc) ? packagename-distribution-version.bb? Jun 20 10:52:01 I'm on the decition between using oe or building up the distribution out of .SlackBuild files but I will first check out how it could be done by using oe. I started writing a slackware tgz image python scrip but to write it I will have to get deeper into oe first. And for this one I have to know if investing time in oe helps me with my project. Jun 20 10:59:51 mr_nice: debian alice? I do not know what you mean Jun 20 11:00:29 zecke:the packages are all in debian style Jun 20 11:00:44 zecke:look at the base package Jun 20 11:01:03 zecke:there is sysv initstyle and all Jun 20 11:01:22 zecke:configuration things are debian alice Jun 20 11:01:29 anyway, I think your agenda is to make OpenSIMpad slackware based Jun 20 11:01:31 so let it be Jun 20 11:01:40 zecke:yes Jun 20 11:01:56 what do you mean by alice? my webste doesn't have a meaning for that Jun 20 11:01:57 zecke: so how shuld I name the packages? Jun 20 11:02:38 zecke: well I am not a english alice could be gossip Jun 20 11:02:46 the same? Jun 20 11:02:52 zecke: no Jun 20 11:03:04 just do not use init, and update-rc Jun 20 11:03:15 zecke:I have to look into a dictionary Jun 20 11:03:22 mr_nice: use the SlackWare names? Jun 20 11:03:24 I guess you mean "alike". Alice would be a girl. Jun 20 11:04:25 zecke: I want to have a convention if a package exists and slackware did it other in that package. shuld i name the package then programmname-distribution-version.bb? Jun 20 11:05:09 yes I think alike is the right name ;) Jun 20 11:05:31 mr_nice: so the difference is the label, other init scripts and other system configuration? Jun 20 11:05:47 mr_nice: but the binaries are the same? Jun 20 11:05:58 zecke: yes there are other scripts and other configuration Jun 20 11:06:05 mr_nice: use BBCollections and set PN_slack = "other-better-bigger-name" Jun 20 11:06:09 zecke:well not in any case Jun 20 11:06:26 mr_nice: why not use SlackWare directly, if you want SlackWare? Jun 20 11:06:33 * zecke is a noob on slackware Jun 20 11:06:57 zecke: there is no embedded slackware at the moment Jun 20 11:07:08 zecke: I want to build one for my simpad Jun 20 11:07:31 zecke: and I just thought about using oe oer building it with .SlackBuild files Jun 20 11:08:20 zecke: There is a "armedslack" but he build it not by crosscompiling he have a ionix which is able to build the hole system Jun 20 11:08:39 so build it on the SIMpad then? Jun 20 11:08:49 or make armdeslack cross compile aware? Jun 20 11:09:02 or just set the PN depending on the package Jun 20 11:09:12 provide alternative configurations Jun 20 11:09:48 zecke:I will try it Jun 20 11:09:50 mr_nice: but yes, distribution-name_version.bb is something that is used by familiar already Jun 20 11:11:12 zecke: How hard do you think is it to build a package_tgz.bbclass file? Jun 20 11:11:50 mr_nice: how is that different to package_tar? Jun 20 11:12:50 zecke:it is a tar.gz file named tgz with direct / and some special files Jun 20 11:13:05 zecke: but there is a packaging tool which creates it. Jun 20 11:13:21 zecke: mom i will upload something to pastebin Jun 20 11:13:23 mr_nice: easy, but I know this code a bit Jun 20 11:13:30 mr_nice: I need to get some food now Jun 20 11:14:11 later Jun 20 11:20:41 koen_: welcome master Jun 20 11:22:36 hey hrw|work Jun 20 11:24:00 koen_: ewi got overloaded again ;( Jun 20 11:35:10 weird Jun 20 11:35:25 koen_: edb-native must die Jun 20 11:35:47 does removing gtk-config help? Jun 20 11:36:05 will look tomorrow on my home machine Jun 20 11:36:55 and add do_configure_prepend() { cd $STAGING_BINDIR;mv gtk-config gtk-config-} (and viceversa in do_install_append()) probably Jun 20 11:37:44 breakfast time Jun 20 11:37:44 like I made in kdepimpi/do_unstage() Jun 20 11:37:47 later all Jun 20 11:37:49 smacznego koen Jun 20 11:43:50 progress..

Jun 20 12:09:22 hi cliff Jun 20 12:13:00 hrw|work: morning Marcin Jun 20 12:20:53 i'm afraid there's nothing you can do remotely Jun 20 12:21:06 on the machines i had this fork bomb only manual resetting helped Jun 20 12:24:04 mickeyl: if you lucky you can sysreq it remotely Jun 20 12:24:16 mickeyl: I'm afraid that koen cannot call resetmonkey remotely Jun 20 12:25:37 XorA: cool. how's that working? Jun 20 12:26:07 mickeyl: as of 0.30 bluez-utils require dbus. are you going to patch it out and keep a nodbus version around for opie? Jun 20 12:26:10 mickeyl: echo b >/proc/kernel/magic_sysreq Jun 20 12:26:20 mickeyl: or wherever that files moves each week Jun 20 12:26:58 XorA: if I will get logged in then there would be no problem Jun 20 12:27:28 hrw|work: it does involve some lucky person having root shell still open Jun 20 12:27:31 pH5: I don't think so. I'm afraid we will have to stick with the older one for the Opie images for a while :/ Jun 20 12:28:04 mickeyl: I was just wondering if the bluez-utils-dbus provider should be renamed to just bluez-utils then Jun 20 12:28:34 pH5: yeah, that would make sense Jun 20 12:36:49 * chouimat is back. Jun 20 12:37:27 morning Jun 20 12:37:34 pH5: remember that it should RPROVIDE bluez-utils-dbus Jun 20 12:43:23 hrw|work: and RREPLACE?

He wants to contribute to OE (which is what I asked them to do ;-)), but does not know how to. I guess this is good news.

Jun 20 14:28:25 oh my cat gets angry... Jun 20 14:29:49 What is a good file to look at for creating a bb file for a font? Jun 20 14:29:54 ttf? Jun 20 14:30:04 ttf-fonts/ttf-dejavu*.bb Jun 20 14:30:55 It is a qpf font. Jun 20 14:31:15 then qpf-fonts/qpf-dejavu*.bb Jun 20 14:31:26 Laibsch: cjkv font? Jun 20 14:31:39 Strange, I grepped for qpf but that was not returned. Jun 20 14:31:43 hrw|work: yes Jun 20 14:31:50 http://sourceforge.jp/projects/zaurus-ja/document/unismall_unismall-1.0.0_-_Notes/ Jun 20 14:32:01 Nice font, small, just the right size for the display. Jun 20 14:32:10 Much better than the current unicode font we have. Jun 20 14:33:37 Laibsch: right size for qvga and vga? Jun 20 14:33:56 I do not know. Jun 20 14:34:03 I have only an SL-5500. Jun 20 14:34:14 But the bigger screens are popular in Japan. Jun 20 14:34:25 Might work for higher resolution as well. Jun 20 14:34:34 It certainly is the right font for the collie. Jun 20 14:34:45 let me see Jun 20 14:35:27 Laibsch: its '10' size - too small for vga Jun 20 14:35:38 But perfect for collie. Jun 20 14:35:51 for collie yes Jun 20 14:35:53 There is already a 16 size unicode font for higher res. Jun 20 14:35:58 That was too big for me. Jun 20 14:36:04 yes.. Jun 20 14:36:20 Laibsch: too bad that cjkv TTF are so big Jun 20 14:36:25 It is certainly not intended as a replacement since judging from the file size it will likely only contain Japanese chars Jun 20 14:36:37 it has iso1 and japanese Jun 20 14:36:44 That is why I like it, just 100k instead of some Megabytes. Jun 20 14:37:03 200K + 210K - two rotations Jun 20 14:37:14 no bold/italic at all Jun 20 14:37:19 yes, it can work as default font which is still necessary to use some of the Japanese input methods Jun 20 14:37:54 last comment related to iso1 Jun 20 14:41:16 sure Jun 20 14:41:21 koen__: re? Jun 20 14:41:50 Laibsch: how much work is needed to get cjkv support for opie? I would like to add it in/after 3.5.4.1 Jun 20 14:42:22 hrw|work: It is ready Jun 20 14:42:26 I use it. Jun 20 14:42:34 Japanese, that is. Jun 20 14:42:41 Do not know about Chinese. Jun 20 14:42:49 And Vietnames and Korean. Jun 20 14:43:43 Published stuff is at http://vbone.net/oz/ Jun 20 14:43:51 Laibsch: if it show J then it should be able to show CKV too - isn't it? Jun 20 14:44:07 I would assume, but cannot guarantee. Jun 20 14:44:25 Take a look at my screenshot at http://leipzig.leggewie.org Jun 20 14:45:38 OK, something is wrong with my playground. Jun 20 14:45:52 I'll let you know where to look at a screenshot later. Jun 20 14:45:56 hrw|work: what do you thing about 'fixing' libc.so inside OE? Jun 20 14:46:12 koen: #define fixing Jun 20 14:46:35 hrw|work: make it work without having to edit it Jun 20 14:46:40 koen: btw - can you organize resetmonkey for ewi? Jun 20 14:46:51 koen: 'AS_NEEDED' stuff? Jun 20 14:46:57 hrw|work: AlexTe from http://vbone.net said he wants to push his stuff into OE soon. And I have been contacted by a dev from openzaurus-ja today on how he can get his bb files into OE. Expect something within the week, I'd guess Jun 20 14:47:12 Laibsch: great Jun 20 14:47:12 nice Jun 20 14:47:17 hrw|work: Look out for the strings pobox, anthy, uim, scim and nunome Jun 20 14:47:20 great is better Jun 20 14:47:47 but I will not delay 3.5.4.1 more to give it out-of-box Jun 20 14:47:57 hrw|work: I think that is OK. Jun 20 14:48:19 Anybody interested in this might know how to update after the release. Jun 20 14:48:56 exactly Jun 20 14:49:29 hrw|work: Unless you just take the published bb files from http://vbone.net/oz/ for nunome, qpobox and poboxserver. They have been reviewed by quite a few people. Jun 20 14:49:33 * chouimat is away: lunch Jun 20 14:49:34 hrw|work: Up to you. Jun 20 14:49:46 put them in the bugtracker so they don't get lost Jun 20 14:50:12 Laibsch: it something is not in .dev then it does not exist for .oz354x Jun 20 14:50:26 OK Jun 20 14:51:01 koen: AlexTe said he was going to do that. I don't want to interfere with his work. Should I put them in? Jun 20 14:57:14 hrw|work: mail to the monkey commander sent Jun 20 14:57:25 thx Jun 20 14:58:08 hrw|work: have you thought about asking ltg to mirror OZ stuff? Jun 20 14:58:11 hrw|work: you killed my screen? Jun 20 14:59:50 * CoreDump|wm06 cheers Jun 20 15:00:21 koen: not yet Jun 20 15:01:31 * hrw|work want airconditioner or big vent... Jun 20 15:01:45 my brain just turned off from overheating Jun 20 15:01:54 hrw|work: move to the server room? Jun 20 15:02:05 at least our server room has AC :} Jun 20 15:02:25 zecke: our serverroom is ~2km from here Jun 20 15:03:09 and our local machine has so little room that noone fits there (30cm x 1m floor size) Jun 20 15:03:39 :( Jun 20 15:03:52 hrw|work: is the meeting room cooled? Jun 20 15:04:10 zecke: I have desktop machine not portable Jun 20 15:12:19 hmm Jun 20 15:12:31 the 'diff.module' for the OE is less than perfect Jun 20 15:12:39 but it's better than nothing Jun 20 15:13:04 hrw|work: yesterday I sent some screenshots to hh.org: http://handhelds.org/scap/port.9720.png and http://handhelds.org/scap/port.9848.png in case you are interested. Jun 20 15:17:04 BTW hrw|work, CJKV has two aspects to it. Input and display. I would assume that OE/OZ is ready for display of CJKV if the correct font is there. Jun 20 15:17:17 Laibsch: I know Jun 20 15:17:22 There was nothing I needed to do in that respect. Jun 20 15:21:00 Good evening. Jun 20 15:22:51 diff.module? Jun 20 15:23:41 mithro: http://drupal.org/node/40414 Jun 20 15:25:14 that still doesn't make much sense to me :) Jun 20 15:25:50 some how i started typing japanese in gnome-terminal, was pretty cool looking but not that useful Jun 20 15:25:53 it enables stuff like http://www.openembedded.org/node/20/diff/136/135 Jun 20 15:26:07 so you can see change between revision Jun 20 15:26:29 ahh okay Jun 20 15:26:35 it's a website thing Jun 20 15:26:42 the problem is that it displays the whole page instead of ~10 lines of context Jun 20 15:28:36 i guess that can be hard in html Jun 20 15:32:39 mithro: Are you interested in Japanese on OE/OZ? Jun 20 15:33:05 Laibsch: not at all :) Jun 20 15:33:23 my mum is a little intrested in Japanese on pocket PC Jun 20 15:33:24 you should be :-D Jun 20 15:33:39 Pocket PC is yucky! Jun 20 15:34:04 How did you manage to type Japanese? You have a screenshot? Jun 20 15:34:23 mithro: Normally you need special input methods. Jun 20 15:35:15 Laibsch: she doesn't at the moment Jun 20 15:36:05 mithro: No, I meant this: "(17:42:25) mithro: some how i started typing japanese in gnome-terminal, was pretty cool looking but not that useful" Jun 20 15:36:15 =D Jun 20 15:36:36 Laibsch: i have no idea how I did it, it just happened Jun 20 15:36:52 but Japanese/Asian languages are pretty well supported under gnome these days Jun 20 15:37:06 Oh, you are talking about your desktop, right? Jun 20 15:37:19 Maybe you hit left-shift and space? Jun 20 15:37:31 That can be defined as a trigger. Jun 20 15:37:47 But there are others, too. Jun 20 15:39:52 cu Jun 20 15:40:43 Laibsch: yeah, i meant on my desktop Jun 20 15:40:56 Laibsch: why not work on getting Japanese support into GPE? Jun 20 15:41:25 mithro: That is what I am doing, ain't I? ;-) Jun 20 15:41:37 i thought that was opie? Jun 20 15:42:05 You need to compile the input methods. I guess they work both on Opie and GPE. Jun 20 15:42:26 They are generally not specific to a Windowing system Jun 20 16:01:45 it looks like the ewi server is down right now..:( Jun 20 16:01:59 anybody have a clue when it will be back? Jun 20 16:02:46 hvontres: when the reset monkey, pushed the button Jun 20 16:02:50 hvontres: what do you need from ewi? Jun 20 16:02:53 never mind, it is just VERY slow today Jun 20 16:03:11 hvontres: -j XX to compile oz3541 Jun 20 16:03:24 I wanted to check on some packages Jun 20 16:03:39 hvontres: using what kind of service? Jun 20 16:04:41 I was trying to run "ipkg update" on my Z and wget was timing out. Also, I am trying to look at it with my browser from my pc and it is very slow as well. Jun 20 16:04:52 ah okay Jun 20 16:05:04 yeah ewi is currently down, waiting for the reset monkey to push a button Jun 20 16:05:26 thanks, will check back later. Jun 20 16:08:55 I want to build an external kernel module and see there is already, would the best method of buiding the module (many times during development) be to use the existing module class? Jun 20 16:09:41 Where can I read more about the meaning of numbers generally attached to qpf font file names? For example, where is the difference between unismall_100_50.qpf and unismall_100_50_t10.qpf? What do the 100 and 50 stand for in both files? Jun 20 16:12:20 I think I might have found something: http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/DejaVu_for_Opie/Qtopia Jun 20 16:14:59 * chouimat is back. Jun 20 16:20:28 sorry, I just read my own posting and realized I miss typed half of it :) Simple question: What is the best way to build a kernel module in OE if you will be building it frequently (during module development)? Jun 20 16:23:57 Gerrath: bitbake -b /path/to/module.bb ?? Jun 20 16:25:03 lardman|work, so make a meta file and use the module.bbclass functions. Jun 20 16:26:16 Gerrath: Create a file which builds the module, such spca5xx.bb (though I'm trying to work out why this one doesn't actual produce anything) Jun 20 16:27:13 Gerrath: Use inherit module, and copy the do_compile and do_install from that file (for example) Jun 20 16:28:15 my automake based library results in a libname.so, libname.a and libname.la in the resulting (non -dev) package. I can see that this is wrong, but what's the correct way to fix that? (how do i produce a .so.1 and symlink?) Jun 20 16:37:06 lardman|work, thanks. Jun 20 16:37:43 Gerrath: You may get away without having the do_compile section Jun 20 16:38:05 The ratoc driver used to compile okay without needing it Jun 20 16:38:12 s/driver/module Jun 20 16:42:56 has anyone tried busybox 1.1.3 yet? Jun 20 16:44:11 Is there a EASY way to create a symbolic link for all files $NAME-10.qpf and name those link $NAME-16.pqf? Jun 20 16:45:57 Laibsch: for *-10.qpf; do ln -s $f $(basename $f -10.qpf)-16.pqf; done Jun 20 16:46:28 Wow, that seems like magic. I'll try to understand what it does. Jun 20 16:46:30 there's a "f in" missing after for Jun 20 16:46:40 Thanks pH5 Jun 20 16:46:41 for f in *-10.qpf; do ln -s $f $(basename $f -10.qpf)-16.pqf; done Jun 20 16:48:03 koen: not yet. does it have the eabi problems fixed? Jun 20 16:50:51 pH5: no idea Jun 20 16:51:12 * koen notices http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=9b0e1c5dd2941aec566047e10a5cc929ca7f7d4f Jun 20 16:51:29 pH5: it does have eabi support Jun 20 16:51:58 combined with the recent gcc 4.1.1 patches... Jun 20 16:57:37 pH5: Unfortunately, that does not fully solve the problem. And I can't find the answer in "info coreutils". The filenames might be $NAME-10.qpf, but also $NAME-10-t50.qpf. I would need links to $NAME-16.qpf and $NAME-16-t50.qpf Jun 20 17:02:02 night all Jun 20 17:02:07 Laibsch: how about ln -s $f $(echo $f | sed 's/-10/-16/') Jun 20 17:02:19 night lardman|gone Jun 20 17:02:40 pH5: elegant. Looks like it will do the job. Jun 20 17:02:48 I'll give it a shot. Jun 20 17:04:54 * chouimat is away: nap Jun 20 17:07:30 if I just want to compile a module to copy over to a running system, I would just use do_compile in my .bb correct? There would be no reason to use do_install() as well? Jun 20 17:14:20 hi Jun 20 17:14:38 hi hrw Jun 20 17:30:23 Just got this while compiling, maybe you want to fix this, compilation seems to be possible: ERROR: opie-launcher-settings.inc:15: unparsed line: 'do_inl() {' while parsing /mnt/pfaffe/src/openembedded/org.openembedded.dev/packages/opie-launcher-settings/opie-launcher-settings_cvs.bb Jun 20 17:32:54 zecke: How's that reset monkey donig? Jun 20 17:33:40 hvontres: I think that tomorrow we will get ewi back Jun 20 17:33:40 Hi CoreDump Jun 20 17:33:53 hi there Jun 20 17:34:11 Have you had a chance to play with RP's latest patches on poodle? Jun 20 17:35:49 which latest patches? I know he merged some but nothing new AFAIK Jun 20 17:39:29 * chouimat is back. Jun 20 17:39:46 what do you think about oz-devel-qemu/vmware image? Jun 20 17:40:49 Hey guys Jun 20 17:40:49 Do you recommend working on OpenEmbedded if you are an EE student wanting to do power systems and embedded systems? Jun 20 17:41:00 hrw: wouldn't a LiveCD type thingy better? Jun 20 17:41:28 CoreDump|home: maybe - but I never used them Jun 20 17:41:34 Benefit to vmware is not needing to reboot Jun 20 17:41:39 neither did I =) Jun 20 17:41:55 ggilbert: drawback is its "speed" compared to the real host OS Jun 20 17:42:02 Downside is x86 only Jun 20 17:42:48 Laibsch: you know what. that japanese stuff is really great. it may opens a door into the japanese developer world which has unfortunately been more or less close until now Jun 20 17:43:00 with all the jap. zaurus folks doing their own thing Jun 20 17:43:00 I can't speak for qemu, but vmware at least doesn't have nearly as big a performance hit as you'd think :p Jun 20 17:43:53 mickeyl: I am sure it will. Jun 20 17:44:05 Did you read my message re tota from openzaurus-ja Jun 20 17:44:23 I think they have a bunch of stuff, but they only publish the ipk. Jun 20 17:44:34 I hope we get lots of contribs from them. Jun 20 17:44:35 I'm really wanting to know if I should bother with OpenEmbedded Jun 20 17:44:35 I'm just trying to break out of being a construction laborer Jun 20 17:45:21 Laibsch: excellent Jun 20 17:45:46 mickeyl: I hope that maybe I can bridge the two communities a bit. This is certainly also a language issue. PLus, one about culture. Japanese are hesitant afraid of situations and people they do not know. Jun 20 17:46:04 hesitant and afraid Jun 20 17:47:15 mickeyl: Thanks for the thumbs up. I am glad I can give back (while really doing it for purely selfish reasons only ;-)) Jun 20 17:47:22 :) Jun 20 17:47:52 anybody know of any how-to's on setting up kexec to switch between 2.6 and 2.4? Jun 20 17:48:16 hvontres: boot 2.6 then "kexec -l kernel;sync;kexec -e" Jun 20 17:48:20 bioeng: What exactly is your question? If you have one of the supported devices, I think OE is certainly a good choice. Jun 20 17:48:39 I don't have any embedded devices Jun 20 17:48:59 bioeng: Where does your interest in openembedded come from, then? Jun 20 17:49:07 but I'd like to get into embedded as an EE specialization Jun 20 17:49:10 hrw: where do you get the 2.4 kernel from? Jun 20 17:49:27 hvontres: from OZ? Jun 20 17:50:19 hrw: Sorry, I meant where do I install the 2.4 kernel to? Jun 20 17:50:38 hvontres: anywhere in filesystem Jun 20 17:50:51 hvontres: it can even be famous /stuff/ Jun 20 17:51:05 Do I just copy over the zimage.bin file then? Jun 20 17:51:17 yes Jun 20 17:51:30 hvontres: copy it anywhere, really. It doesn't matter Jun 20 17:52:01 ok. And can I use Altboot to keep my 2.4 setup on SD? Jun 20 17:52:24 that should work yes Jun 20 17:52:33 Cool...:) Jun 20 17:53:07 Probably should do a NAND Backup to be sure tho...:) Jun 20 17:54:44 bioeng: OE is just a tool. it's a useful tool for building and maintaining the linux distribution that you'll use on the target device. that's all. it isn't a very suitable development tool. when you've got a device you want to run linux on, and have a kernel that boots on it, then grab OE and use that to produce a cohesive linux distro for it. Jun 20 17:54:59 bioeng: until then, it isnt going to help you Jun 20 17:58:36 hi Jun 20 17:59:31 i have a problem with getting oe with monotone Jun 20 18:00:16 if i try to checkout the development branch i get a note that my db is not up to date and i should try migration Jun 20 18:00:43 did that but now it claims missing catalog Jun 20 18:00:56 what version of monotone do you use? Jun 20 18:01:00 stuck here, can someone help me fix this Jun 20 18:01:01 which Jun 20 18:01:04 0.27 Jun 20 18:01:08 boing Jun 20 18:01:12 tried 0.26 before Jun 20 18:01:14 use 0.25 and you are fine Jun 20 18:01:25 k i'll try than Jun 20 18:01:25 no migration to the newer until now Jun 20 18:02:55 aha i guess i did not read the note on the news carefully enought Jun 20 18:03:00 thank you Jun 20 18:30:08 ~seen RP Jun 20 18:30:20 rp is currently on #gpe (6d 8h 5m 26s) #oe (6d 8h 5m 26s) #openzaurus (6d 8h 5m 26s) #handhelds.org (6d 8h 5m 26s).

Jun 20 18:36:19 When I build a module with the module.bbclass does the module source have to be in the kernel source tree or can it be external? Jun 20 18:37:03 can be external Jun 20 18:40:58 * chouimat is away: really boring stuff Jun 20 18:41:15 hrw, if I'm just compiling the module "hello.ko" I should just the the do_compile() and not do_install() correct? again I just want to compile it and manually copy it to the active system. Jun 20 18:42:39 Gerrath: iirc do_compile() should be enough Jun 20 18:51:29 tried vmware-player and decided to go back to qemu (with kqemu accelator) Jun 20 18:54:59 I'm trying to put together a very simple kernel module example: the typical "hello world", which I will post on the wiki when I'm done :) Here is my Makefile: http://pastebin.com/721601 and .bb file: http://pastebin.com/721600 When I run "bitbake -b hello.bb -ccompile" it seems to work but there is no output file. hello.ko or hello.o Jun 20 19:04:09 fsck.. Jun 20 19:04:22 even qemu fails with sigsegv Jun 20 19:05:45 ~curse my home desktop machine Jun 20 19:05:48 May you be reincarnated as a Windows XP administrator, my home desktop machine ! Jun 20 19:07:18 hrw: It would be nice to know why qemu segfaults... Jun 20 19:07:36 RP: with or qithout kqemu? Jun 20 19:08:04 last try and I will give up Jun 20 19:08:18 btw - 2.6.17-ck1 stinks like 2.6.17-rc5 Jun 20 19:08:37 or my desktop is toooo unstable Jun 20 19:09:54 I also suspect that qemu has problems with my 8 years old dvd drive as 'cdrom' Jun 20 19:10:05 2.6.17 seems fine on the Zaurus... :) Jun 20 19:10:41 It sounds like your qemu issues aren't the ones I was thinking off (the ones FC users keep running into) Jun 20 19:15:21 FSCK! Jun 20 19:15:54 die qemu! die!

You need the work area since the raw source for the kernel is there :-) Jun 20 19:47:09 ~curse Bill Gates Jun 20 19:47:11 May you be reincarnated as a Windows XP administrator, Bill Gates ! Jun 20 19:49:28 Gerrath: no - you cannot rely on tmp/work Jun 20 19:50:13 hrw, I wonder why the tmp/staging does not compile the module? Jun 20 19:52:21 hrw, so then KERNELDIR=${STAGING_KERNEL_DIR} should be correct? Jun 20 19:52:41 Gerrath: yes Jun 20 19:53:55 re after 2 reboots Jun 20 19:59:19 koen, when I set it to STAGING_KERNEL_DIR bitbake gives no errors during the compile but there are no files generated, if I point KERNELDIR to the tmp/work directory for the kernel then everything builds. Jun 20 19:59:45 koen, everything being hello.ko and hello.o Jun 20 20:01:06 koen: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/admin/cpulimit Jun 20 20:01:39 boo Jun 20 20:02:43 is there a repo that have konquereror-embedded wich doesnt depends on libqte2? Jun 20 20:04:02 no Jun 20 20:05:29 hrw: Ok, so you have to build opie without QT-mt otherwhise konquereror-embedded will not work? right? Jun 20 20:06:05 dont know - no .de build here Jun 20 20:06:18 no thats right. Jun 20 20:07:04 * Harvy is away: at the pub Jun 20 20:30:33 yay! Jun 20 20:30:55 Crofton: finally connected?

Jun 20 20:36:55 ggilbert_: Anakondi, a PIM daemon Jun 20 20:37:02 running LDAP somewhere would be an option probably but I cannot run it Jun 20 20:37:02 I could have sworn they were talking about pulling that sort of thing out of kmail and into a seperate daemon Jun 20 20:37:05 yeah that thing Jun 20 20:37:16 hrw: guess what: Anakondi uses a IMAP like protocol Jun 20 20:37:35 zecke: imap like or imap? Jun 20 20:37:35 hrw: In the end, I found the pim over imap thing just didn't work very well Jun 20 20:37:42 hrw: imap like Jun 20 20:38:01 well, I liked and liked the design of evolution Jun 20 20:38:16 the wombat, later e-d-s worked and were designed! Jun 20 20:38:27 ggilbert_: I do not have laptop to get my PIM data with me anywhere (PDA does not count) so I want to keep all PIM data in one place. currently imap-over-kmail is the only option Jun 20 20:38:57 hrw: I just found that I'd remove something and it would magically reappear later on. Jun 20 20:39:17 ggilbert_: yep - that suxx too Jun 20 20:39:44 My hope is for something like opengroupware that just doesnt suck Jun 20 20:41:02 that and good syncing Jun 20 20:42:27 looks like I will be able to buy nice laptop rather then 'good syncing' will arrive Jun 20 20:42:51 hehe Jun 20 20:44:57 03cbrake 07org.oe.dev * rd43467c2... 10/packages/python/ (python-pexpect_0.99.bb python-pexpect_2.1.bb): python-pexpect 2.1: update to latest version 0.99 -> 2.1 Jun 20 20:48:06 hrw: get a n770, and demand syncing from o-hand.com :} Jun 20 20:48:26 I'm tempted to pick up an n770 Jun 20 20:48:36 but I dont know if it would be useful Jun 20 20:48:54 What I'd really like is a linux smartphone Jun 20 20:49:08 zecke: for 150% of n770 price I can get new lowend laptop - what will I choose?

Schematic designer tools? Jun 20 21:22:13 I don't know very much about embedded, and am trying to learn Jun 20 21:22:34 I was not allowed to go somewhere where EE jobs were Jun 20 21:22:47 so I'm trying to look at open source Jun 20 21:24:16 Oh Jun 20 21:24:25 I guess OE wasn't what I thought it was Jun 20 21:24:28 Sigh Jun 20 21:24:38 I just want to tell people at school that I have work experience Jun 20 21:24:49 because they hammer that heavily Jun 20 21:25:08 and I have to stay home to take care of my family Jun 20 21:25:19 I can't go off hundreds of miles for a job Jun 20 21:29:15 hrw: good luck getting your machine fixed :) Now get some sleep ;D Jun 20 21:30:32 OK Jun 20 21:30:39 Any comments before I leave? Jun 20 21:30:51 I'd just like to find a project to work on to get me EE experience Jun 20 21:30:53 hvontres: to get it fixed I would have to get idea what need fixing first. Jun 20 21:31:19 EE sounds like hardware work for me. OE is software Jun 20 21:31:24 and I need sleep - cu Jun 20 21:33:06 I need to get software experience Jun 20 21:33:17 because so much of the EE program is software Jun 20 21:42:26 EE rules Jun 20 21:42:58 I agree koen Jun 20 21:43:04 Are you an electrical engineer?

Jun 20 22:25:08 G'nite Jun 20 22:30:13 * Harvy is back Jun 21 00:21:24 Guys, I'd like to ask a few questions Jun 21 00:21:36 Basically, what does OpenEmbedded do? Jun 21 00:28:59 Hello? Jun 21 00:29:46 bioengine: read through the answers that you already received. You asked the same question previously. Jun 21 00:31:37 I apologize Jun 21 00:32:00 I don't believe I asked what OpenEmbedded does before Jun 21 00:32:06 but I could be wrong Jun 21 00:35:29 (23:34:23) hrw: bioengine: like you was told already: OE is buildsystem to generate linux based distributions. it does not cover hardware parts Jun 21 00:36:23 OK Jun 21 00:36:59 So you can use OpenEmbedded to create a Linux distro for an embedded device? Jun 21 00:37:15 yes Jun 21 00:38:32 Does OpenEmbedded have libraries you can use in your Linux distro? Jun 21 00:40:35 How so? Jun 21 00:41:55 Well... Jun 21 00:42:03 I've never build a Linux distro before Jun 21 00:42:20 Is it simple for embedded devices? Jun 21 00:42:51 Well, simple is relative :p Jun 21 00:43:19 I apologize Jun 21 00:43:29 The openembedded stuff is fairly straight forward Jun 21 00:43:46 It's just that all of this programming stuff is new to me Jun 21 00:43:53 But really, how complex building your distribution will be depends on what you need to do Jun 21 00:45:25 but building a distribution for a single embedded device will be far far easier than building Redhat Jun 21 00:45:34 That's good to hear Jun 21 00:45:42 I need to build my skills Jun 21 00:46:28 What would be involved in general in building a Linux distro for an embedded device using OpenEmbedded? Jun 21 00:47:16 well you need to decide what you need Jun 21 00:48:05 and you need to get a kernel Jun 21 00:48:44 and you need to write the packaging information for your custom applications Jun 21 00:49:27 Then you'll need to start tweaking things so that the general packages in openembedded's repositories work the way you need them for your uses Jun 21 00:51:55 So the kernel I write basically is the set of system functions? Jun 21 00:52:04 Like copying from one place in memory to another? Jun 21 00:52:12 Or executing a program? Jun 21 00:52:34 No, it's the code that makes linux work on the cpu you Jun 21 00:52:37 have chosen Jun 21 00:52:46 and has the drviers for the other hardware in your device Jun 21 00:53:36 So OE is a Linux distro? You just write drivers for it to interface with your hardware? Jun 21 00:53:48 sort of Jun 21 00:53:59 it's stuff to build a distro Jun 21 00:54:27 bioengine: Get OE and just try it out. Jun 21 00:54:33 OK Jun 21 00:54:47 I think it will be faster that way for you to understand what OE is and what it is not. Jun 21 00:54:49 Well, I'm installing Fedora this weekend when I should not have to help my dad Jun 21 00:55:13 He's been having me a work a LOT, seven days a week, 10 hours a day Jun 21 00:55:17 Follow the steps on the GettingStarted page in the wiki. Jun 21 00:55:24 Hopefully, I should start to get some time off Jun 21 00:55:26 I'll do that Jun 21 00:55:32 Ok, bye Jun 21 00:55:39 Thank you Jun 21 00:55:42 G'nite Jun 21 00:55:45 de nada Jun 21 00:56:00 Too late, I guess ;-) Jun 21 00:56:21 OK, now a question off my own. Maybe there is an answer in the morning. Jun 21 00:56:23 I have fsck'ed the partition for OE, I have deleted tmp, deleted and checked out again org.openembedded.dev and bitbake. Still, I get strange errors when compiling: http://rafb.net/paste/results/dXVlRR96.html Anything broken in OE? Jun 21 01:13:18 hello Jun 21 01:19:40 i've been using .oz354x to build collie and poodle images... and learning how to modify/fix and make .bb files... Jun 21 01:19:53 but i read in yesterdays logs that RP had recently made changes in .dev to improve the poodle kernel (against 2.6.17) Jun 21 01:20:08 so i've checked out .dev, but i'm not sure how to edit my conf for this using .dev... Jun 21 01:20:19 would it be DISTRO= ?openzaurus-unstable? and MACHINE_KERNEL-VERSION= ?2.6? ?
