Jan 28 09:13:24 <wigyori> wtf
Jan 28 09:15:22 <Kaloz> wigyori: I'm not surprised at all
Jan 28 09:16:14 <Bartman007> who forgot to put up the "Do not feed the trolls" sign?
Jan 28 09:16:27 <Kaloz> :D
Jan 28 09:18:20 <wigyori> :D
Jan 28 13:36:17 <CIA-26> kaloz * r10291 /trunk/ (90 files in 3 dirs): generic 2.6.24 support
Jan 28 13:39:51 <juhosg> :)
Jan 28 13:44:53 <spitz> thats nice :) now waiting for brcm47xx
Jan 28 13:48:21 <noip> Does anyone have any pointer to how I can compile & install the "RDCPort" version of OpenWRT?
Jan 28 14:41:26 <nbd> brcm47xx will need some work
Jan 28 14:41:35 <nbd> since the upstream version is somewhat different from ours
Jan 28 14:41:45 <nbd> in that it was only written with wgt634u in mind
Jan 28 14:42:25 <spitz> i'm still not sure if 2.6.24 will fix the wireless on the wrt54g devices
Jan 28 14:45:40 <Kaloz> nbd: so the debianist crap went upstream? :p
Jan 28 14:48:19 <nbd> yeah
Jan 28 14:48:51 <nbd> spitz: wireless will be fixed, but it will not be the release that makes the difference
Jan 28 14:48:59 <nbd> spitz: but the fact that we will use a newer version of mac80211/b43
Jan 28 14:49:10 <nbd> the signal strength problem was fixed in b43 recently, imho
Jan 28 14:49:30 <nbd> for working ap mode, we still need to patch mac80211
Jan 28 14:49:49 <nbd> because not all ap mode patches went into upstream yet
Jan 28 14:49:50 <spitz> i managed to get the latest b43 with the latest trunk, but wasn't able to get ap mode working
Jan 28 14:50:04 <spitz> scanning and etc. works
Jan 28 14:50:06 <nbd> the script that generates the hostapd config needs a msall fix
Jan 28 14:50:19 <nbd> ap mode in mac80211 drivers cannot work without hostapd
Jan 28 14:50:32 <nbd> i was able to put it in ap mode, but the signal strength bug prevented it from being usable
Jan 28 14:51:29 <spitz> all right, i'll try with hostapd. with 2.6.24 i wasn't able to start the device
Jan 28 17:23:24 <CIA-26> blogic * r10292 /trunk/package/busybox/files/cron: only start crond if there are files in the crontab
Jan 28 18:16:06 <CIA-26> blogic * r10293 /trunk/package/base-files/files/etc/passwd: make the system have a daemon user by default
Jan 28 18:34:12 <CIA-26> nbd * r10294 /trunk/package/madwifi/ (17 files in 2 dirs): update madwifi to latest trunk, include a few more fixes/improvements
Jan 28 19:07:21 <CIA-26> blogic * r10295 /packages/net/openslp/ (Makefile files/slp.conf files/slp.reg files/slp.spi): fixup openslp
Jan 28 19:26:06 <giovanni> hi there
Jan 28 19:26:13 <wrt_> hi
Jan 28 19:26:32 <giovanni> is there the developer who is in charge of broadcom based firmware?
Jan 28 19:27:25 <nbd> i guess that would be me
Jan 28 19:27:29 <giovanni> :)
Jan 28 19:28:05 <giovanni> I sent a patch about rxantenna and txantenna settings... have you seen it?
Jan 28 19:28:28 <giovanni> just to know if I can improve it
Jan 28 19:29:03 <giovanni> https://dev.openwrt.org/attachment/ticket/3041/patch-rxant-txant.2
Jan 28 19:29:55 <giovanni> it is strange... if you don't wait for a while, the settings about the antenna don't work
Jan 28 19:31:04 <nbd> what is that weird thing with the sleep 15?
Jan 28 19:31:13 <nbd> i'd like a clean solution
Jan 28 19:31:34 <nbd> try adding it to the vif_pre_up part
Jan 28 19:31:40 <giovanni> I know... but if you don't wait, the radio doesn't get the setting
Jan 28 19:31:54 <nbd> it might work as well if you use vif_pre_up
Jan 28 19:33:05 <giovanni> mmm, now I can't try, I don't have the access point here... I'll try in some days
Jan 28 19:33:59 <giovanni> have you tried to do something about that problem?
Jan 28 19:34:39 <nbd> not yet
Jan 28 19:34:50 <nbd> but i want this to be tested before i commit the change
Jan 28 19:34:56 <nbd> i don't like the 15 secs extra delay
Jan 28 19:35:14 <nbd> especially because it's likely to vary based on external influence
Jan 28 19:35:41 <CIA-26> nbd * r10296 /trunk/package/madwifi/patches/ (300-napi_polling.patch 327-queue.patch): more queue handling stuff
Jan 28 19:35:57 <giovanni> I know... on my access point I have to wait 10 seconds... so I choice 15 to be on the right side... I know, I know
Jan 28 19:36:35 <giovanni> however the settings without my patch are before $vif_pre_up
Jan 28 19:38:16 <giovanni> maybe there is a setting that conflict with that of the antennas
Jan 28 19:38:54 <giovanni> however the delay doesn't affect the boot sequence... it is executed in background
Jan 28 19:48:09 <giovanni> I'll see dd-wrt source to see how they've done
Jan 28 19:48:13 <giovanni> :)
Jan 28 19:49:57 <giovanni> what do you think about dd-wrt nbd?
Jan 28 19:51:51 <_trine> hehehehehhe
Jan 28 19:52:33 <giovanni> _trine: what's this ehehe
Jan 28 19:52:35 <giovanni> :)
Jan 28 19:52:38 <Kaloz> rotfl
Jan 28 19:52:46 <_trine> lmao
Jan 28 19:53:04 <_trine> sorry giovanni its funny
Jan 28 19:53:10 <giovanni> ok... I got it... you don't like it
Jan 28 19:53:14 <giovanni> :)
Jan 28 19:53:18 <_trine> :)
Jan 28 19:53:35 <_trine> long story I suppose
Jan 28 19:53:50 <_trine> gotta go bbl
Jan 28 19:53:56 <giovanni> I don't like it either... I'm waiting for openwrt to work on my linksys before shifting
Jan 28 19:54:32 <giovanni> long story?
Jan 28 19:54:46 <_trine> I think nbd just collapsed on the floor when you said that
Jan 28 19:54:49 <giovanni> ahaha
Jan 28 19:55:16 <_trine> bbl
Jan 28 19:55:21 <giovanni> bbl?
Jan 28 19:55:30 <_trine> be back later
Jan 28 20:19:33 <giovanni> shit... I'm download "those..." sources... it makes me download 6-7 kernel sources
Jan 28 20:47:37 <giovanni> how about adding click modular router patches to openwrt?
Jan 28 20:51:28 <crazy_imp> ?
Jan 28 20:54:52 <crazy_imp> not sure if the "Target Profile" already supports such things (ok, it's not clickable :D), nbd?
Jan 28 20:56:51 <giovanni> click allows to create routers in a fast and modular way... it is often used in conjuction with openwrt
Jan 28 20:58:39 <crazy_imp> maybe i got you wrong, so the "click"-stuff are hardware parts which you can plug together to build your own router?
Jan 28 20:59:00 <Kaloz> click is a meshing software
Jan 28 20:59:24 <Kaloz> https://dev.openwrt.org/browser/packages/net/click
Jan 28 21:00:06 <crazy_imp> interesting
Jan 28 21:01:47 <giovanni> that's the click I was talking about... but I was talking about a patch to apply to the kernel
Jan 28 21:02:36 <CIA-26> nbd * r10297 /trunk/package/madwifi/patches/326-soc_dma.patch: add missing #include
Jan 28 21:02:42 <giovanni> click can run either in kernel and in user mode... the patches you have are for user mode... however not bad
Jan 28 21:03:28 <giovanni> just to be precise... click is not only for mesh software... it is for router in general
Jan 28 21:49:56 <aoz> Anyone have opposition or concern over the sierra.c and comgt script changes I've posted?
Jan 28 21:50:36 <nbd> i think blogic said he wanted to check it out
Jan 28 21:51:09 <aoz> Perfectly fine, I just wanted to make myself available to discuss if you needed to make a fool of me...
Jan 28 22:21:23 <aoz> Just realized that probably came across all wrong.  Just looking to learn and help, regardless of the lesson.
Jan 28 22:33:29 <giovanni> compliments for the support of intel network processors... it's been the easiest "distribution" to setup
Jan 28 22:35:24 <giovanni> I've tried openwrt on a netgear access point (wag302 v1)
Jan 28 22:35:54 <giovanni> it works well except for the mac address of the ethernet card
Jan 28 22:39:15 <Kaloz> I plan to fix up the mac addresses for quite a few board this week
Jan 28 22:40:34 <giovanni> good, thanks
Jan 28 22:45:39 <giovanni> maybe you're already aware of this, however: --23:45:07--  http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/uClibc-.tar.bz2
Jan 28 22:48:53 <Kaloz> eweun make menuconfig, and it will be fine
Jan 28 22:49:46 <giovanni> yes
Jan 28 22:51:16 <giovanni> sometime, when I change the configuration (switching from ixp400 to brcm for instance) I get compilation error... so I have to delete everything and download all again from the sources... then everything goes well, with the same .config... is that a known issue?
Jan 28 22:52:55 <Kaloz> didn't hit that one yet.. but why are you downloading everything? mkdir /some/where/dl && ln -s /some/where/dl
Jan 28 22:52:59 <Kaloz> :)
Jan 28 22:54:47 * aoz figured that one out the hard way
Jan 28 22:55:01 <giovanni> yes... I save the dl directory... I mean all the sources...
Jan 28 23:42:08 <CIA-26> kaloz * r10298 /trunk/target/linux/generic-2.6/config-2.6.24: disable chaostables for 2.6.24 until it's fixed
Jan 28 23:42:44 <CIA-26> kaloz * r10299 /trunk/target/linux/generic-2.6/patches-2.6.24/005-squashfs_fix.patch: fix squashfs on 2.6.24
Jan 28 23:44:16 <CIA-26> kaloz * r10300 /trunk/target/linux/generic-2.6/patches-2.6.24/700-powerpc_git.patch: add upstream git patch for arch/powerpc
Jan 29 00:26:52 <CIA-26> matteo * r10301 /trunk/target/linux/ar7/patches-2.6.23/130-vlynq.patch: [AR7] refresh vlynq patch
Jan 29 00:56:29 <CIA-26> kaloz * r10302 /trunk/tools/ (Makefile dtc/ dtc/Makefile): add dtc, the device tree compiler
Jan 29 00:58:49 <CIA-26> kaloz * r10303 /trunk/target/linux/ppc40x/ (7 files in 3 dirs): add basic support for the AMCC PPC405EX Kilauea evaluation board
Jan 29 02:42:19 <Bartman007> wtf? http://openwrt.pastebin.ca/876822  <--- Is this a game of "Where's Waldo"?
Jan 29 02:50:14 <CIA-26> matteo * r10304 /trunk/target/linux/ar7/config-2.6.24: AR7 2.6.24 config file
