00:03:05XavierGrwhat did you do?
00:03:42linuxstbpearldiver: Can you access the disk via USB?
00:03:45pearldiverwell i tried the rotation build
00:04:09pearldiverwhat i'm getting when i plug the usb and turn it on is:
00:04:19pearldiverone bar in the original gigabeat progress bar

00:04:42pearldiverand my computer makes a sound that an usb device is connected but i dont see it in the explorer / as a drive no matter what
00:04:52pearldiverhowever, if i go to Safely Remove Hardware properties, the system sees it as Toshiba Mobile Audioplayer with the Toshiba Hard Drive as a component but no letter is being assigned to it
00:05:09pearldiverlinuxstb so as you see i cannot
00:05:38TrueJournalslinuxstb: Just the person I was looking for!
00:05:54*linuxstb is busy reading 3 days worth of IRC logs...
00:05:56XavierGrpearldiver: you have tried to open it and connect it to USB just like the wiki says?
00:06:05pearldiverXavierGr yep, same thing
00:06:11markunpearldiver: maybe there is no more partition?
00:06:25pearldivermarkun thats what i thought
00:06:31TrueJournalslinuxstb: You commented on FS # 6705 that you got even better results removing the synth_full function from IRAM... can you help me do this?
00:06:31markunbut?
00:06:32pearldiverbut how come it disappeared
00:06:49DerPapstcan anyone tell me how to get the midi player built? i'm not that fammiliar with the build system. (adding something to SOURCES and SUBDIRS?)
00:06:56pearldiveryeah Safely Remove Hardware properties shows that there's no partition
00:07:08pearldivermarkun would this be the end?
00:07:15markunjust make a new FAT32 parition
00:07:37markunor you can just give up of course ;)
00:07:43pearldiverhehe
00:07:54pearldiverbut how if i can't access it
00:08:25markunpearldiver: how do you create a partition for a HDD which 'shows now drive letter'?
00:08:51markunis there no disk manager tool for windows or something?
00:08:56DerPapstit might be a good idea to add compiling instructions for the midi plugin on the PluginMidiPlay wiki page as well..
00:08:58pearldiverwith the partition soft obviosuly
00:09:09pearldiverobviously
00:09:15markunpearldiver: but that doesn't work with removable drives?
00:09:26linuxstbTrueJournals: Just change ".icode" to ".text" in the new .S files
00:09:31pearldivermarkun somehow i thought it doesn't :P

00:09:37pearldiverbut let me try of course
00:09:38TrueJournalslinuxstb: Cool, thanks
00:10:29markunpearldiver: and if windows can't do it there are other OS' which can do it for you
00:10:39DerPapstmarkun: there is something in windows.
00:11:04DerPapstmarkun: Contol pannel... (have to translate...)
00:11:11XavierGrpearldiver: you can format it if windows see the disk but there is no letter to open it
00:11:25XavierGrgo to computer management
00:11:31DerPapstright
00:11:36DerPapstthat was it :)

00:13:37XavierGrif you can find the disk there you can format it
00:13:47pearldiverlet me try it XavierGr
00:13:59XavierGrafter the format you will see the letter in explorer and then be able to put there the OF or rockbox

00:16:01mpeccorinianyone: how much memory is assigned to a plugin buffer?
00:16:26 Quit markun (Remote closed the connection)
00:17:13XavierGrpearldiver" yes you will loose all data
00:17:59pearldiverwhat if i use some partition software ?
00:18:07linuxstbmpeccorini: On the Archos devices, 32KB, on the other devices (apart from iFP7xx), 512KB. I'm not sure about the iFP7xx (it only has 1MB RAM in total...)
00:18:43linuxstbmpeccorini: But Chessbox is a special case on the Archos devices - it takes over the whole available RAM (about 1.5MB).
00:18:53DerPapstso i guess i have to add midi to SUBDIRS at lie 37 or so?
00:18:57mpeccorinilinuxstb: thanks, I'm implementing chessbox as a viewer as you suggested
00:19:07mpeccoriniso far it opens a PGN file and lists all the games
00:19:16mpeccorinithen you select a game and it shows the list of moves

00:19:54XavierGrthe process though won't be failsafe and you might end up with lots of lost data
00:20:05JdGordonlol @ peturs vid :)

00:22:15DerPapstdo i have to add a makefile to midi?
00:22:23*DerPapst is slightly confused
00:22:50DerPapstbecause all the other plugins that are in a seperate dir have one
00:23:08mrmagic526Just want to say great work on the 80 gig ipod this weekend. I do have one question about the patch if anyone can answer it. I just reinstalled cygwin and got the latest svn. I applied the patch and it crashes with an error when building it....

00:27:33linuxstbDerPapst: What are you trying to do? midiplay is already compiled.
00:27:45mrmagic526midiplay?
00:27:52mrmagic526guess I'll have to check that one....
00:27:59mrmagic526just trying to see how it works on my 80 gig
00:28:15mrmagic526used to use rock box on my 60gig.... i miss rockbox so much lol
00:28:20DerPapstoh? haven't found it .rockbox\rocks
00:28:33DerPapsts/\//
00:28:34 Join hcs [0] (n=agashlin@rockbox/contributor/hcs)
00:28:39linuxstbDerPapst: RTFM.... "viewers" are in .rockbox/viewers/
00:29:12DerPapstoh. didn't know it belongs to viewers. soryy
00:29:15DerPapst*sorry
00:29:44*DerPapst is new to rockbox
00:29:55linuxstbWe have a fine manual ;)
00:30:12DerPapsthaven't found it there
00:30:24mrmagic526it could be me.... I never used cygwin before. My main computer is down and I'm using a piece of crap win98 machine..... I usually use vmware.... I used to do some custom builds for my 60 gig
00:30:37DerPapsti've searched the pdf for "Midi" with 0 results
00:31:03linuxstbOK, midi itself may not be documented, but it should explain the concept of viewers.
00:31:43linuxstbBe warned the midi plugin doesn't work well on ipods - IIRC, it plays audio at 22.050KHz, but the Rockbox audio driver only supports 44.1KHz...
00:31:48DerPapstwell but how do i know if it belongs to viewers with only looking at the source?
00:32:06bluebrotherlook into apps/plugins/viewers.config
00:32:11DerPapsti'll keep that in mind
00:32:14bluebrotherif it's listed there it's a viewer
00:32:25DerPapstah ok.
00:32:36bluebrotheror at least, you can invoke it as viewer
00:32:54bluebrothersome plugins can be both viewer and regular plugin. Sudoku for example is one
00:32:57 Quit Siltaar ("Aurevoir - www.fdn.fr/~sdescarp")
00:33:10mpeccorinibluebrother: and very soon chessbox too ;)
00:33:52bluebrotherwhatever ... I'm to weak at chess for playing against the gnuchess engine ;)
00:34:07DerPapstheh.. i guess i have to find out the difference between viewer and plugin fist by reading some docs.
00:34:11 Part juxtap
00:34:40bluebrotherif you invoke a plugin as viewer then it gets the filename passed
00:34:50mpeccoriniDerPapst: they're basically the same, but plugins use the filename they receive to do something
00:35:05bluebrotherbut viewers that rely on a file (like jpegviewer) can't be run otherwise
00:35:19DerPapstah ok
00:36:15 Quit Thundercloud_ (Remote closed the connection)
00:36:52DerPapstmrmagic526: do you need the bootloader as well? or do you have some kind of 3rd party bootloader?
00:38:53mrmagic526nah i got ipod linux
00:39:09mrmagic526loader 2.5b6
00:39:11enycmrmagic526: iirc ipodlinux works an older units... rockbox works on newer units
00:39:21DerPapstlinuxstb: one question about ipodpatcher (once again): where does it get the generation from? some mbr magic?
00:39:26mrmagic526i got the 80 gig ipod
00:39:50enycmrmagic526: wel go look at the webpage then... you should find out what "generation" ipod you have exactly
00:39:54mrmagic526i've been hacking ipods for a while. Just got super excited to see rockbox for my 80 gig.... problem is this piece of crap computer isn't compiling it
00:39:57linuxstbDerPapst: From the firmware version number (in the firmware partition).
00:40:01mrmagic526I know what I have
00:40:05mrmagic526it's a 5.5 80 gig
00:40:08DerPapstmrmagic526: ok. but you have to make a loader.cfg for rockbox. autodetectioni is broken in this version.
00:40:09mrmagic526I have linux on it already
00:40:11TrueJournalsmrmagic526: rockbox doesn't work on the 80 gig...
00:40:14mrmagic526right
00:40:21DerPapstlinuxstb: thanks.
00:40:26mrmagic526I got a loader config since I have a wikipedia linux on my ipod as well
00:40:29scorcheTrueJournals: actually, it does
00:40:29bagawkTrueJournals: amiconn put up a patch lst night
00:40:30enycmrmagic526: I dont expect you need to compile rockbox? you can just use prebuilt rockbox?
00:40:37DerPapstTrueJournals: wrong ;)
00:40:40mrmagic526enyc not for the 80 gig
00:40:42TrueJournalsAh, OK, my bad...
00:40:44mrmagic526it's not in the svn yet
00:40:48 Quit Domonoky (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
00:40:51mrmagic526patch released today
00:40:52bagawkmrmagic526: I can send you a build that works on the 80gb
00:40:58TrueJournalsHadn't heard about that... thanks for letting me know
00:41:07linuxstbDerPapst: There isn't a firmware version (afaik) in the 3g or earlier firmware, so ipodpatcher just assumes a 3g (as that's all Rockbox works on). If you're using it for other reasons, you'll need to solve that issue...
00:41:09mrmagic526cool. I'm on the web irc so email it to toddmc516@sisna.com
00:42:01bagawkmrmagic526: http://leepil.com/~lee/rockbox.zip
00:42:14DerPapstlinuxstb: i thought about a force function.. if it doesn't find the magic in the mbr
00:42:14 Part TrueJournals
00:42:27mrmagic526cool thanks
00:42:33bagawkmrmagic526: I assume you have loader2 since you have ipodlinux, in that case just mv rockbox.ipod that is in .rockbox to the root of the ipod
00:42:45linuxstbDerPapst: No, just get rid of the MBR check altogether...
00:42:48mrmagic526I'm pretty good at compiling but my good pc is down and I'm using an old piece of crap that I had to put cygwin on instead of vmware
00:42:56mrmagic526cannot wait to try it
00:43:55mrmagic526yup yup
00:44:15linuxstbDerPapst: I'm not sure if ipodpatcher does, but it should check that the first partition is type 0 (Empty) and the second partition is FAT32 (or HFS for macpods). That should be enough to identify ipods (along with checking the contents of that empty partition for a valid firmware image)
00:44:39DerPapstlinuxstb: done that already. i just wonderd if i have to give ipodpatcher the generation.

01:33:39XavierGrbut I might be wrong
01:34:31XavierGrpearldiver: I am not exactly a Gigabeat guru, but if you can access your DAP through a PC then I guess that your player is safe for the time being
01:34:39XavierGrdoes it boot at OF or rockbox at all?
01:34:43DerPapstlinuxstb: so i have to apply mpa.patch at first and than the other patch?

02:04:27kkurbjunI ended up doing a low level format of the drive

02:04:41pearldiverhelped?

02:05:21kkurbjunthen I formatted with the gigabeat formatter
02:05:28kkurbjunand then copied the files over
02:05:36pearldiverjust the rockbox?

02:06:44kkurbjunit wiped at least the begining of the drive then I got seek errors so I killed the program and went from there
02:06:51kkurbjunno, I dind't touch the of
02:07:07kkurbjunI just copied over a system folder from one of my other gigabeats
02:07:17kkurbjunI think the system folder has to have special permisions though

05:15:35LloreanWhat happens when you hold "Right" immediately after the Apple Logo displays?
05:16:26drequeIt goes into "Rockbox boot loader, Version: 1.0, IPOD version: 0xFFFFFFFF, TOSHIBA MK8010GAH" and then hangs there
05:16:45LloreanThat's the last line it displays?
05:16:49drequeyes
05:17:09LloreanI don't think you've installed a properly patched bootloader then.
05:17:26drequehmm yeah that's what It seems to be
05:18:11drequeI received the bootloader from TrueJournals, I guess it wasn't patched properly
05:18:20pearldiverSoap no luck finding it?
05:19:20Lloreandreque: Or you didn't install it properly. Ipodpatcher may have installed the inbuilt bootloader instead

05:38:25Lloreankrustyclo: Read the text at the top of the page...
05:38:54bagawkdreque: that works fine for me, probably just your bootloader
05:39:01krustyclodo i download from the archived daily builds link

05:40:38krustycloim confused
05:40:41LloreanBagder: Why does the build table show the lds on the commit that claims it fixes the lds?

05:41:04krustycloit doesnt say
05:41:11krustycloi dont know...
05:41:27LloreanYou are reading the Rockbox manual, right?
05:41:38krustycloi read it earlier
05:41:44krustycloit doesnt tell you exactly which one to download

05:43:22LloreanNo, the most current build is the one you download on the current build page
05:43:33LloreanWhat's so confusing about "Below the table are builds of Rockbox"
05:43:38LloreanBELOW
05:43:39LloreanScroll down
05:43:41krustyclothere isnt one for ipod mini
05:43:52krustyclohave you actually looked at that page
05:44:02krustyclotheres a graphic image for most other ipods but not the mini
05:44:10LloreanIt also says if one isn't currently showing, you either have to wait, or download an old build
05:44:27krustycloyes
05:44:29LloreanIt's pretty clear what your options are.
05:44:30krustyclothats what i did
05:44:37krustycloi clicked in the link at the top!!!
05:44:56LloreanThen why did you ask? It makes it 100% clear that the Daily Build is older than the Current Build, but a current build is not available at the moment due to errors in the build system.
05:45:57LloreanWhat exactly is it that you're confused about?
05:47:26 Part Llorean
05:48:09drequewell it's still hanging on the bootloader

06:43:13krustyclowhy cant rockbox access the music i added in itunes ?
06:43:21krustycloif you just drag and drop files
06:43:36krazykitbecause itunes randomly renames files and puts them in arbitrary directories
06:43:39krustyclowhy cant it scan the files in the music_control folder and read the id3 tags and add it
06:43:42aliaskIt can, use the database feature
06:43:48krustyclooh
06:43:54krazykitrighto
06:44:01krazykitunless the songs are crippled, then they won't play
06:44:14krustycloyou mean use drm ?
06:44:21krazykityep
06:44:34krustyclonope i refuse to buy drm crippled music
06:48:05krustycloif i enable the database do i have to load it every time i boot my ipod
06:48:12krustycloor only after i add music in itunes ?
06:48:35aliaskIt needs to generate the database once, and then it just monitors any changes from then onwards.
06:49:15krustyclosweet
06:49:26krustycloso far i am really impressed....
06:49:46krustyclocan i i erased songs that are in my itunes database from within rockbox ?
06:49:59krustycloor do i have to use apples firmware nd itunes to do that
06:50:03krustyclo*and
06:52:16krazykititunes, probably, as rockbox only removes the file, not the .db entry
06:52:57krustycloahh i see
06:53:34krustycloafter i use rockbox and am sure that its still stable i think ill just remove all the itunes db files and add it in rockbox format
06:54:29aliaskThat's a better idea, when you play the files in rockbox, the playlist entry is the filename, not the tags so you get an entry like "EQKA.mp3"
06:55:07krustyclo?
06:55:30krustycloi have seen an entry in that format in the database menu in rockbox
06:55:47krustyclohavent
06:56:10aliaskIf you play the song in rockbox, and then go to "view playlist" in the WPS context menu, you will see what I mean.
06:56:41krustyclooh
06:57:13aliaskIt just makes browsing by playlist a little cumbersome
06:57:35krustycloim gonna just go for it and remove everhything from itunes and add it in rockbox

07:12:41aliaskIf you really want. It's a hidden folder though, so rockbox won't see it by default.
07:13:25krustycloi can also add the music in as many sublevels as i want right ?
07:13:35krustycloerr sub folders
07:13:40aliaskYep
07:13:49krustyclobecause i was thinking of putting all my music in /Music
07:16:17krustyclothis is so much better than using itunes
07:16:35aliaskI agree :)
07:17:35krustycloi have over 11K songs and tried using itunes to manage all of my music but its difficult to have 2 databases across 2 computers. especially when one is a mac and the other is a pc
07:18:25aliaskWell the file method will be a lot nicer then.
07:18:30krustycloyep
07:19:10krustycloi originally wanted to use rockbox for its ogg support but just noticed that ogg and non-ipod standard codecs dont work anyways with rockbox on an ipod

09:51:18B4gderhahaha
09:51:18peturlol
09:51:18B4gderthe meeting vid is very interesting without sound...
09:51:18*B4gder forgot his earplugs at home today
09:52:53LinusNhehe, i called OS X "evil" :-)
09:53:26B4gderooops
09:53:30B4gder;-)
09:53:35LinusNand the zune project gets its fair share... :-)
09:53:49LinusNoooo, bad "box" jokes
09:54:00B4gdernow we know why the images-only feed is a good idea ;-)
09:54:02peturif it's too bad I can take it down again ;)
09:54:07LinusNhahaha
09:55:47LinusNthat was really one of the more important discussions :-)
09:55:57B4gderwhat did it cover?
09:56:01petur"the windows dudes can still manage but the mac dudes are totally lost"
09:56:05LinusNrbutil
09:56:09B4gderah
09:56:49peturbagofshit is covered too
09:56:53LinusNlovely
09:57:08*scorche doesnt see a meeting vid
09:57:19B4gderhttp://www.dailymotion.com/group/60452/tag/RockBox/1
09:57:40GodEaterit needs subtitles
09:57:42krustycloLinusN, os x is far from evil
09:57:44scorchehrm....strange...see it now
09:57:58GodEaterthe accoustics in that room are dreadful
09:58:08B4gderkrustyclo: sorry, we have video proof now saying it is
09:58:15krustyclowhat do you mean ?
09:58:22peturmy camera only does 8kHz, sorry
09:58:51B4gderkrustyclo: the video we're talking about where Linus says that about mac os
09:59:04GodEaterso it must be true!
09:59:13krustyclo:p
09:59:20B4gderit says so on the internet, then it is true!
09:59:23krustycloi used linux for 12 years or so
09:59:32krustyclothen sold my pc and got a macbook...
09:59:41krustycloid never go back to a pc again... '
09:59:59peturkrustyclo: it's just about the fact that many osx users have a problem unzipping .rockbox to their player
10:00
10:00:12krustycloi didnt have any probs
10:00:13peturdon't take it personally
10:00:18krustyclono im not ...
10:00:24krustyclosounds a pebkac problem
10:00:26GodEaterkrustyclo: that's because by running linux you've demonstrated having a clue
10:00:33GodEatermost OSX users don't have one
10:00:42krustycloi didnt switch from windows to os x
10:00:55krustycloso its nice to drop to a command shell and run rm -rf / every now and then

10:01:33GodEaterwe've had questions from some OSX users on how to start the shell. Then they've no idea what to do with it after they've started it.
10:01:57krustyclooh.. sounds windows newbs
10:02:12krustyclothey houldnt be messin around in terminal if they dunno wtf theyre doing
10:02:29B4gderthe unzip problems the mac os x users have is proof of silliness imho
10:02:34GodEaterindeed
10:02:39GodEaterit's completely braindead
10:02:42krustyclowhy ?
10:02:46peturexactly. that's why we need an easy tool for those users
10:02:51krustycloos x comes with a built in unzip utility
10:03:21B4gderyes, and that clearly isn't good enough for users
10:03:23GodEaterbecause it unzips the rockbox.zip file into a folder called "rockbox"
10:03:32GodEaterinstead of unzipping what's IN the zip file
10:03:37krustyclooh
10:03:50 Join linuxstb_ [0] (n=linuxstb@rockbox/developer/linuxstb)
10:03:52krustyclothen all you do is copy the contents of the folder to the mp3 player
10:03:54krustyclohow hard is that ?
10:04:03GodEatertoo hard for most of our users
10:04:10GodEateresp. the OSX ones.
10:04:15schulahehe
10:04:17krustycloagain, a pebkac problem
10:04:21krustycloknow what that means ?
10:04:25B4gderI disagree
10:04:27*petur feels sorry the vid only covers rbutil, but the camera just ran until battery empty, which was after 10mins :(
10:04:31GodEaterI disagree too
10:04:45GodEaterOSX's unzip utility shouldn't invent folders
10:05:06LinusNkrustyclo: and the reason that they fail to copy it is because .rockbox is hidden
10:05:17krustycloo
10:05:27B4gderyou can't blame the users for not being good at working around flaws in the unzip untility
10:05:28scorchepetur: perhaps next time we should record video through camera and audio though rockbox and sync later?...audio really is dreadful
10:05:29krustyclousually i unzip it in terminal
10:05:37LinusNthere is no way to unzip the contents of the zip directly onto the device using the builtin zip tool
10:05:40krustycloyou know what the real problem is ?
10:05:45scorcheor even have a decent video recorder
10:05:50GodEateryes. "OSX is evil"
10:05:55B4gderkrustyclo: mac os x? ;-P
10:05:55krustycloits a lack of understanding of unix based file systems and naming conventions
10:05:58GodEaterwe already said ;)
10:06:07Zagorkrustyclo: from the osx team, yes
10:06:18krustycloi used linux so i know that files beginning with . are hidden
10:06:41peturscorche: I just made these to let people get an idea how devcon looks and feels
10:06:47GodEaterkrustyclo: and again, most OSX users haven't done that and DON'T know that and they shouldn't HAVE to
10:06:50LinusNkrustyclo: but the majority of os x users don't know that
10:06:50krustyclobut i can see how the windows to os x newb wouldnt know that
10:07:03krustyclowell i guess im ahead of the game
10:07:04krustyclo;)
10:07:09LinusNyup
10:07:10GodEaterhow about the "never used windows or linux" OSX users ?
10:07:23Zagorif macosx unzip would just do what you tell it to, none of this would be a problem
10:07:24krustyclothis kind of stuff isnt for them
10:07:29krustycloit does
10:07:34Zagorno it doesn

10:07:41krustyclowho can translate that
10:07:49LinusNi really miss the "B", "P" and "F" in the tracker email subjects...
10:07:57ZagorLinusN: coming soon
10:07:59peturhey, don't talk binary to me like that
10:08:03krustyclolol
10:08:46GodEaterif the unzip utility wasn't so brain dead on OSX, we wouldn't have all the "help!" posts in our installation forums
10:08:55krustycloits not os x
10:09:08krustycloa graphical unzip utility in linux would do the same
10:09:09Zagorno, it's unzip on osx
10:09:12krustyclono it isnt
10:09:16Zagorkrazykit: no
10:09:16krustyclothe file is hidden
10:09:26Zagorthe hidden file is not the problem. the fake folder is.
10:09:35LinusNexactly
10:09:41krustyclothats not the utils fault
10:09:52LinusNit definitely is
10:09:55krustyclowhat if there were 10,000 files in the zip
10:09:58Zagorof course it is. the util is inventing a folder that does not exist in the zip
10:10:02krustyclowithout a folder structure
10:10:15B4gder?
10:10:18krustycloi always extract a zip into a containing folder
10:10:19B4gderthere isn't
10:10:27krustyclohuh ?
10:10:29Zagorkrustyclo: now you want hand-holding and "protect me from my computer"?
10:10:33krustyclono
10:10:46krustycloim saying, it makes sense to extract into a containing folder
10:10:51krustyclocall it fake if you want
10:10:51GodEaterno it doesn't
10:10:55B4gderwe all think the tool should extract the files that were added to the zip, exactly those files
10:11:02B4gderexcept you krustyclo
10:11:23Zagorkrustyclo: if it was an option, i could agree with you. but not when you can't disable that behavious.

10:13:29scorchespeaking in binary is against them as well

10:13:54krustycloyou guys did an awesome job at rockbox
10:14:03linuxstbB4gder: OK. That means extra detection is needed for ipodpatcher (for when it's used with rbutil)...
10:14:05krustyclowell those of you here who worked on it
10:14:43B4gderlinuxstb: ah yes indeed. BTW, do you know if the 5.5G 30GB has 32mb?
10:14:47GodEaterlinuxstb: which bit of ipodpatcher cares ?
10:15:01krustycloso far i havent had any problems with RB
10:15:12linuxstbB4gder: Not for sure - I've just assumed (like everyone) it's the same as the 5G 30GB.
10:15:24B4gderok
10:15:29krustycloLinusN, GodEater have you guys tried ipodlinux ?
10:15:39LinusNi haven't
10:15:43GodEaterkrustyclo: nope - it doesn't interest me
10:15:44B4gderGodEater: the part that downloads a particular zip for your target I guess
10:15:53krustyclodont it isnt stable at all
10:15:58GodEateripodpatcher does that ?!?!
10:16:04B4gderoh
10:16:07linuxstbGodEater: ipodpatcher itself doesn't care, but the ipodpatcher detection code is used by rbutil which installs daily/current builds - so it needs to report the 64MB targets.
10:16:08*B4gder thought about rbutil
10:16:15GodEateraaaah
10:16:17GodEatermakes sense
10:16:39GodEaterdo we know how to detect that then ?
10:16:47GodEaterother than relying on the model ?
10:16:53linuxstbWe can only go by disk size I think.
10:17:00GodEaterhmm
10:17:01 Quit scubacoles ("This computer has gone to sleep")
10:17:50GodEateris it only the 60 and the 80 that we know of with 64MB ?
10:18:10linuxstbYes
10:18:32*GodEater built a 64MB rockbox version yesterday for his 80GB
10:18:50krustycloman i wwish my ipod had a bigger hd
10:19:20Stygianhow big is it?
10:19:25krustyclo:p 4GB
10:19:35Stygian:(
10:20:08krustycloits an ipod mini. i dont think the hd is replaceable
10:20:18krustyclowait minis dont use flash mem do they ?
10:20:23GodEaterI think you can replace the mini's HD with compact flash can't you ?
10:20:27scorcheyou can
10:21:27B4gdershould I add a "current" build for ipod 64mb as well?
10:21:29GodEaterNot sure what size options that gives you though
10:21:40GodEaterB4gder: why bother ? ;)
10:21:57B4gderonly if we have a bunch of such users who want the bleeding stuff
10:22:22GodEaterhang on, current = svn right ? Yes definitely in that case.
10:22:27B4gderexactly
10:22:35GodEaterI'd use it
10:22:57B4gderfirst more coffee, then I'll poke on the script
10:23:00linuxstbB4gder: I thought current builds were what we recommend everyone to use?
10:23:08GodEaterbtw - British Telecom are still proving to be the world's biggest pains in the ass, I still have no internet at my new home - but my build server is yearning to come back to the gang.

10:23:47bluebrotherkrustyclo: you can replace the mini's hard drive with a CF card
10:24:14krustycloyea im reading about it but it looks kind of tricky
10:24:30bluebrotheryou need to make a small adjustment to the RB source, but that's not complicated
10:24:31GodEaterlinuxstb: that's what I think too - we always ask people to use svn over "daily" if they report a problem.
10:24:38bluebrotherI tried that mod, it's really easy.
10:24:53bluebrotherthe only problem is that there are cards around that don't work "good"
10:24:57GodEatertbh, I think we should drop the daily's
10:25:53krustyclobluebrother, it isnt worth doing it even if i get an 8gb compactflash card
10:25:57B4gderthe dailies serve two purposes
10:26:02linuxstbGodEater: The dailies are useful when users report new problems - they can go back over the last 30 days and check.
10:26:10B4gderexactly
10:26:19GodEaterah I see
10:26:28GodEatermaybe we should rename them "troubleshooting" builds
10:26:29linuxstbB4gder: two purposes?
10:26:29B4gderand the fact that they're built on a single host also makes the situation somewhat more controlled in case of odd errors
10:26:44B4gderthat has helped us in the past
10:26:48GodEaterin cases of odd binutils behaviour you mean ?
10:26:52GodEateror the like
10:26:55B4gderyes
10:27:02GodEatermakes sense
10:27:38linuxstbB4gder: BTW, I've been reading the devcon report - what does dropping support for ROMbox mean? Will it be removed from SVN, or just left as it is today?
10:28:06GodEaterthere's a report now ?
10:28:19B4gderlinuxstb: mostly that we leave it as it is today, and no actual effort in making it ever work again
10:28:25linuxstbGodEater: The wiki page
10:28:40bluebrotherkrustyclo: depends on what you call worth it. I really like the idea
10:28:40*GodEater goes to read it
10:29:00krustyclobluebrother, isnt the highest capacity that you can get now 8GB ?
10:29:09krustycloas far as compactflash goes ?

10:29:33bluebrotherso the mod itself is quite interesting.
10:29:57LinusNamiconn: hi!
10:29:58bluebrothermy problem is only that those cards aren't too cheap and I don't have too much money to spend on something like that
10:30:10krustycloyea
10:30:13amiconnlinuxstb: Just the fact that we accept rombox became too big for most archoses nowadays.
10:30:20krustycloi dont want to shell out a lot just to go from 4-8gb
10:30:28amiconnOf course we should still try to write nice compact and efficient code
10:30:42bluebrotherhehe. I did that anyway because I replaced the battery
10:30:44GodEateramiconn: of course :)
10:30:59amiconnThe 2 targets where rombox still fits will of course continue to provide it as long as possible
10:31:07amiconn(Ondio SP and Player)
10:31:15B4gderat next commit there should be a 64mb video version built
10:31:36amiconnLinusN: Where did you find something that says identify word 47 bit 8 is a "validity" bit?
10:31:50GodEaterI assume detecting the amount of memory and allocating the right amount at runtime is non-trivial ?
10:32:02amiconnNone of the ata-5, ata-6 and ata-7 specs I checked say that, and none of my hdd targets have that set
10:32:12B4gderGodEater: for the 64mb you mean?
10:32:40B4gderGodEater: it requires us to re-arrange where we put stuff in memory somewhat
10:33:03amiconnI also checked the multisectors reported by my 6 hdd targets. All report 16 except the mini G2's microdrive, which even does report 32
10:33:36linuxstbamiconn: Does your patch still need testing on "normal" ipod videos?
10:33:40B4gderGodEater: here's amiconn suggesting how to fix it "properly": petur/devcon2007/images/dscf0011.jpg">http://users.telenet.be/petur/devcon2007/images/dscf0011.jpg
10:33:43amiconnBut the ata specs say that '0' is a reserved value, so the G5.5/80's hdd violates the ata specs here
10:34:13amiconnlinuxstb: Yes. I am also interested in a filesystem performance test patched vs. unpatched, if possible
10:35:39krustyclohey bluebrother
10:35:41krustyclostill here ?
10:35:47B4gderhttp://download.rockbox.org/daily/ipodvideo64mb/
10:37:11GodEaterB4gder: is one of those the current layout, and the other the proposed one? And if so, which is which ? :)
10:37:45B4gderthey're both the same
10:37:46linuxstbamiconn: OK, I'll do that, but it won't be until this evening. Adding support for the 80GB means a new ipodpatcher released with updated bootloaders, and there are some things I would like to fix in ipodpatcher (and the bootloaders) before doing that. But I should be able to do that this evening as well.
10:37:55krustyclobluebrother, you here ?
10:38:00B4gderGodEater: just one using a fixed name and the other a dated one
10:38:33GodEaterI meant in amiconn's diagram
10:38:39B4gderoh
10:38:43GodEatersorry
10:38:54B4gderGodEater: the left is the current, and the right is the proposed new one
10:38:55GodEaterI assume the one on the left is the ideal layout
10:39:01GodEaterargh
10:39:03GodEaterI meant right
10:39:10linuxstbGodEater: The problem is that plugins and codecs are compiled and linked to be executed from fixed addresses at the end of RAM. The suggested fix (amiconn's diagram) is to move plugins and codecs to the start of RAM instead.
10:39:30GodEaterand then just extend the buffer off into space...
10:39:34GodEaternice idea
10:40:01GodEaterdoes that mean that the codecs / plugins will now have to fit into a given amount of space ?
10:40:21peturthey already had to

10:55:31LinusNamiconn: i'm not sure, but since the spec defines a validity bit, perhaps we should use it
10:57:33linuxstbamiconn: Do you have any interest in doing the 64MB reorganisation?
10:58:13amiconnLinusN: This validity bit is for the actual setting, not for the capability reported in word 47
10:58:35LinusNah, of course

12:35:23markunon ARM right after the vectors
12:36:06B4gderi think the plan is to only do that on the targets that need it
12:36:24linuxstbThat idea has been around for over a year - I assumed that because the simple solution (separate builds) had been committed, that no-one was stepping forward to do the nice way.
12:36:38B4gdera correct assumption I'd say
12:36:46B4gderbut perhaps amiconn has seconds thoughts ;-)
12:37:31linuxstbAlthough maybe the nice way will be easier, given all the effort (updating rbutil, bootloaders, documentation etc...) required for separate builds.
12:38:00markuncan we also detect the 8MB mod for the archoses?
12:38:27 Quit Lynx_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
12:38:32linuxstbHopefully
12:39:03Nico_Pwhat changes does the "nice way" invlove ?
12:40:57amiconnI think the ram rearranging won't be difficult, but it involves a rather large memcpy, so I'm not sure whether we want that on all targets
12:40:58linuxstbChanging the .lds files, changing crt0-pp.S to relocate the main firmware code, and maybe changing some config.h variables (I'm not sure about all the places the plugin/codec load addresses are)
12:41:20amiconnThe most difficult part would be adjusting the linker script
12:41:34amiconnIf we go that route, we should probably do it for all targets
12:41:48linuxstbThe memcpy was why I suggested the bootloaders simply load to the correct address to start with.
12:42:13amiconnIt would even allow to unify the h100 and h120 builds, if we use the memory size information also to adjust for the only other difference between h100 and h120
12:42:38amiconnlinuxstb: There is no single 'correct address', at least not on arm, because of the vectors
12:43:08linuxstbWe don't know how big the vectors are?
12:43:46amiconnWe know, but the binary nees to be distributed to 2 different addresses
12:44:04linuxstbIsn't it just the vectors that need copying?
12:44:17amiconnVectors must stay at 0 on arm, and everything else moved up by sizeof(codec_ram)+sizeof(plugin_ram)
12:44:50linuxstbYes, so we load at 1MB+a little bit from the start of RAM, and just copy the vectors.
12:44:54amiconnOr you load everything 1MB up, and then copy the vectors the other direction
12:45:08B4gdersounds like a better memcpy...
12:45:19amiconnIt would be exactly 1MB, because the vectors could still be at the start
12:45:31Nico_Perr, silly question: what are the "vectors" ?
12:45:39linuxstbThe interrupt vectors
12:45:56Nico_Pah ok
12:46:46linuxstbBut the downside is yet another forced bootloader upgrade...
12:47:12amiconnYes, and we need to make sure new bootloaders won't load old binaries and vice versa
12:47:38amiconnOr perhaps they could continue to support old binaries for a while, but that means even more checking
12:48:00pondlifeWould it be possible to put a nice warning so the main code can tell the user to update their bootloader, or will a memory rearrangement make some kind of Abort the only option?
12:48:38amiconnAnd on archos we cannot just change the load address, because rockbox is loaded by the archos loader unless it's flashed
12:49:09amiconnOtoh it woulöd be less of a problem with the self-decompressing binary on rec v1
12:50:50pondlifeHmm, Flyspray has the "by <nick>" back in it's mailing subject :(
12:52:03pondlifeVery likely my fault for using OE to read the newsgroup, but I find it breaks the threading display.

13:57:28preglowi don't understand that at all
13:57:31linuxstbHave you had a chance to look at the accuracy of the patch?
13:57:48preglowno, but i'm going to do so today if i can
13:57:56linuxstbNo, nor do I. I can only assume it's related to the cache, and the cache must be faster than IRAM.
13:58:00preglowi think it'll be acceptable

13:58:18preglowthat would be... interesting
13:58:41linuxstbBut no, I can't really think of a logical explanation...
13:59:02linuxstbUnless maybe it's long-calls between SDRAM and IRAM...

14:21:34PhoeniXYZHello. I've got a question about Rockbox. When I change the font to 6+12x13 everything is not aligned anymore. But thats kinda the only font with support for Japanese characters I found. What can I do to align everything correctly?
14:22:41linuxstbI'm assuming you're talking about the WPS? WPSs are normally designed with a specific font in mind, and don't work correctly with different ones.
14:23:02 Join pixelma [0] (i=pixelma@212.204.47.129)
14:23:48PhoeniXYZSo... can I modify the font used somehow?
14:24:49linuxstbIt's probably easier to modify the WPS, or try different ones until you find one which looks acceptable with your font.
14:26:05GodEateror find one which uses your font in the first place
14:26:19linuxstbOr that...
14:26:44GodEateror make your own from scratch!

14:27:25PhoeniXYZI doesn't necessarily need to use that font. I need including a font with Japanese chars.
14:27:44linuxstbUniCatcher probably supports Japanese.
14:28:20linuxstbThere's a wiki page showing which fonts support which character sets (but I forget the name)

15:07:18PhoeniXYZthanks for the font issue :) but i've got another problem. when looking at my songs in database mode then the songs in albums with more than one disc are sorted in the wrong way. there are the two first songs first, then the second songs... and so on. is there any chance to force rockbox to sort by the disc tag in id3v2?
15:08:18PhoeniXYZ"thanks for help concerning the font issue" i wanted to say, sorry
15:09:17linuxstbPhoeniXYZ: I don't think Rockbox supports a disc number tag, although I seem to remember seeing a patch for it.
15:10:07linuxstbA workaround would be to number the first disc's tracks as (e.g.) 101-115 and the second disc as (e.g.) 201-213.
15:10:27GodEateror name the albums with the disc number in (as I do)
15:10:31*amiconn just indicates the disk number in the album tag
15:10:50PhoeniXYZthat would result in a big rework for my whole library
15:11:17linuxstbGodEater/amiconn: But that wouldn't show them as a single album in the database.
15:11:28GodEaterNo it wouldn't
15:11:36*GodEater accepts this limitation
15:11:46PhoeniXYZi found a patch but that just adds the feature right? the gui wouldnt display it? http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/4961
15:11:53*amiconn too
15:11:59*linuxstb too ;)
15:12:04GodEaterhehe
15:12:05amiconnlinuxstb: Track numbers are limited to 2 digits
15:12:19linuxstbThey are? Even for norwegian language courses?
15:12:25amiconnyup
15:12:35GodEaterhahaha
15:12:40B4gderRockbox is surely not norwegian compliant
15:12:50*GodEater hopes not
15:12:52amiconnEven when the database guesses track numbers, which is still in there and it's annoying :(
15:13:02*linuxstb trusts Nico will fix the norwegian bug
15:13:42linuxstbWhat limits track numbers to 2 digits?
15:13:48GodEaterlord knows
15:14:07GodEaterI thought I'd seen bluebrother post something about using tagnavi syntax to get three digit ones
15:14:14GodEaterso that would imply there's no limitation
15:14:21GodEaterbut I trust amiconn's knowledge of the source

15:14:33PhoeniXYZok.. one last question for now, how to apply a .patch file?
15:14:34PhoeniXYZ:)
15:14:46linuxstbIn id3.h, "track_string" is a char* (same as the other strings), and tracknum is an int.
15:14:49amiconnI didn't check the source, but limiting track numbers to 2 digits is common
15:15:05amiconnThe database definitely only displays 2

15:16:28aliaskPhoeniXYZ: It's not really an easy one step thing. You need to recompile rockbox from the source.

16:03:25GenjuroXLanybody know if there is a codec speed comparison available somewhere? (speed in rockbox, obviously)
16:03:31 Quit PhoeniXYZ ()
16:03:35GenjuroXLgoogle didn't really answer my question :)
16:03:46B4gderI don't think we have one (yet)
16:04:04GenjuroXLhm, i need some proof that flac and musepack are the fastest codecs in rockbox
16:04:10peturbut we now have a tool to make one ;)
16:04:24GenjuroXL(random mpc haters on hydrogenaudio questioning the mpc decoding speed)
16:04:25linuxstbGenjuroXL: That's not a very scientific approach... ;)
16:04:47B4gderGenjuroXL: we have a tool you can run to test codec speed in rockbox
16:04:54GenjuroXLi don't even have a portable :)
16:05:09GenjuroXLalso, i do use a scientific approach now and then (studying physics :b)
16:05:17linuxstbFLAC definitely isn't the fastest lossless codec - wav/aiff would be first, then shorten, then FLAC.
16:05:39GenjuroXLwav and aiff are usually just pcm
16:05:44GenjuroXLnot really lossless compression :)
16:05:48 Join Gursikh [0] (n=khalsa@unaffiliated/gursikh)
16:05:59B4gderthey're lossless, not compression ;-)
16:06:04linuxstbGenjuroXL: I just mean you should be asking which are the fastest codecs, not asking for evidence to support a guess...
16:06:12simmelIsn't wavepack faster and better than FLAC?
16:06:16GenjuroXLlinuxstb: that's fine too
16:06:27GenjuroXLthat's why i asked for a comparison table in the first place :)
16:06:50GenjuroXLsimmel: i think they're on par on machines with FPU, no idea about fixed point decoders
16:07:20B4gderI'd like one of those tables too
16:08:24GenjuroXLsimmel: wavpack compression ratio is definitely better than flac :)
16:08:26linuxstbGenjuroXL: Also, you should be careful to make it clear you're just talking about Rockbox, not the codecs in general. Not all of Rockbox's codecs have had the same level of optimisation effort applied to them. e.g. on ipods, vorbis used to be faster than mp3, but I think with optimisations, mp3 is now faster than vorbis....
16:08:44GenjuroXLi remember reading that mpc is the fastest lossy codec in rockbox with speed comparable to flac
16:09:08GenjuroXLand didn't Buschel submit a speedup patch for mpc decoding the other day?
16:09:38linuxstbYes, he did.
16:09:53GenjuroXLlinuxstb: actually, mpc doesn't only win in rockbox :)
16:10:02krazykitsimmel, somewhat, but wavpack isn't nearly as widely supported
16:10:02GenjuroXLit's the fastest in FP mode too
16:10:17GenjuroXLbut that's not relevant here
16:10:19GenjuroXL:)
16:10:28amiconnwavpack decoding is definitely slower than flac decoding in rockbox
16:11:44amiconnscorche: Didn't you want to make a set of codec test files, or was that Soap?
16:12:10linuxstbGenjuroXL: But I'm sure we would all like someone to arrange such a test. How would you compare two codecs though? Same bitrate, or same "quality"?
16:12:22linuxstbamiconn: That was Soap.
16:12:41linuxstbamiconn: But he wasn't happy with his chosen track, so is still (afaik) searching for something better.
16:12:45krazykitlinuxstb, both, ideally
16:13:08GenjuroXLlinuxstb: bitrate shouldn't really matter when it comes to decoding speed
16:13:15linuxstbGenjuroXL: It does
16:13:20GenjuroXLbigger files, sure
16:13:28GenjuroXLbut isn't that a non-issue?
16:13:32B4gder"shouldn't really" is not good for scientific comparisions...
16:13:55linuxstbGenjuroXL: Try it yourself - check the decoding speed of 128kbps vs 320kbps with any lossy codec.
16:14:06GenjuroXLcbr is old
16:14:08GenjuroXL:)
16:14:19GenjuroXLi'll compare mpc q5 and q10, ok?
16:14:21krazykityou'd want to test files with the accepted transparent cd quality of the various codecs
16:14:22linuxstbYes, but it's a fairer test of decoding speed.
16:15:51linuxstbGenjuroXL: OK, but then also compare two files at the same quality with different bitrates
16:17:45preglowbitrate has a large impact
16:17:52simmelkrazykit No, wavepack is alsmost completley unknown.
16:17:53preglowand matters very much
16:18:42GenjuroXLlinuxstb: 328x for q5 and 304x for q7
16:18:49preglowGenjuroXL: buschel's patch helps very much, but i'm still haven't decided what i think of trading quality off for speed
16:19:07GenjuroXLpreglow: wonder if it matters in a portable environment
16:19:13preglowand we need to decide what stance we have on codecs' output being depedent on target cpu
16:19:20preglowGenjuroXL: bitrate?
16:19:20GenjuroXLi don't like the idea of sacrificing quality for speed either
16:19:38GenjuroXLpreglow: that speed test was on windows on my pc
16:19:41GenjuroXLbitrates are
16:19:43GenjuroXL*drumroll*
16:19:46preglowGenjuroXL: it does matter, and more than that
16:19:55GenjuroXL182 kbps for q5 and 241 kbps for q7
16:20:57GenjuroXLq7: 1,2614107883817427385892116182573 kbps/1x decoding speed
16:21:11preglow128kbps MP3: 345.93% realtime
16:21:12preglowVBR MP3: 180.73% realtime
16:21:14preglowlike that, for example
16:21:27preglowthe same will apply for musepack, somewhat
16:21:48GenjuroXLerr, actually no.. calc.exe hates me
16:21:55preglowthe huffman decoding step is quite intensive
16:22:13GenjuroXL0.79 for q7 and 0.56 for q5
16:22:38GenjuroXL</useless numbers>
16:22:52GenjuroXLpreglow: btw, have you tried porting sv8 over to rockbox?
16:23:26preglowno
16:23:41preglowlittle time for rockbox as it is, and i'm going to wait with that job until you're done
16:23:47GenjuroXL:)
16:23:50GenjuroXLfair enough
16:23:53GenjuroXLit's not final yet
16:24:00preglowindeed
16:24:01GenjuroXLr2d is working his ass off, though
16:24:12GenjuroXLsv7->8 converter is nice
16:24:22preglowwhich is good, but the less i have to do, the better, so i'll wait
16:24:36GenjuroXLonce it's done it should be as easy as updating libmpcdec
16:24:50preglowit won't be, but it won't be too much work either
16:25:14preglowstock libmpcdec wouldn't ever run realtime in rockbox
16:25:18preglows/ever/even/
16:25:19GenjuroXLheh
16:25:32GenjuroXLneeds more asm
16:26:08preglowdepends what target, doesn't need too much on arm, but on coldfire it needs asm and iram usage
16:26:20GenjuroXLcoldfire is that m68k clone, right?
16:26:24preglowyea
16:26:34GenjuroXLamiga500 on steroids :)
16:26:34preglowi had quite some fun making it work fast enough on that
16:27:06GenjuroXLwhich players use a coldfire?
16:27:07preglowthere's actually still some potential for speedup, but i can't be bothered when it's as fast as it is on coldfiore

16:27:55GenjuroXLapple is cheating by using DSPs to decode their stuff :)
16:27:59B4gderno
16:28:01preglowno
16:28:04preglowthey use the arm
16:28:09GenjuroXLipod decodes in software mode?
16:28:14GenjuroXLthat's new :)
16:28:14preglowthey only use something else for video and audio in videos
16:28:26preglowordinary audio files are decoded on the arm
16:28:31GenjuroXLinteresting
16:28:57preglowanywho
16:29:01preglowmusepack being fast isn't weird
16:29:04preglowit's a pretty low complexity codec
16:29:07GenjuroXLyes
16:29:17preglowlayer2 with enhancements, more or less
16:29:36GenjuroXLsplit signal into subbands, quantize subbands
16:29:38preglowgiven more effort than already put into it, it can be even faster
16:29:42GenjuroXLcompress losslessly
16:30:11GenjuroXLwell, more speed means more battery life, so it might be worth it
16:30:26preglowsure, but i stop caring once it reaches a certain point
16:30:31preglowwhich has happened long since for musepack
16:31:00preglowi still have to maintain some kind of motivation for doing what i do, and that vanishes if i have to write half the codec in asm, heh
16:31:22GenjuroXLblame the linux people

16:31:31GenjuroXLolder musepack made heavy use of asm
16:31:40GenjuroXLthen people wanted a C version of the lib
16:31:53GenjuroXLbecause pure C is the best (tm)
16:31:59preglowsure, it is
16:32:01preglowbut why remove the asm?
16:32:08preglowyou could use it if applicable for target
16:32:17GenjuroXLno idea, ask Lefungus and r2d :)
16:32:46preglowstill wouldn't help us much, though, unless you had arm and coldfire asm
16:33:09pondlifeAnyone know what sort of hard drive connector is used in the H340?
16:33:21markunpreglow: which brings us back to giving more of our changes to the original projects
16:33:28GenjuroXLpreglow: we need some oldschool amiga programmers, those people know about m68k asm :)
16:33:49preglowmarkun: i tried that with musepack, met plenty of indifference
16:33:55markunhm
16:33:56preglowso i keep them local
16:34:10preglowdoesn't matter much for me anyway
16:34:18markuntrue
16:34:30GenjuroXLindifference probably because decoding speed is more than fast enough on PCs
16:34:45preglowsure, i don't harbor i grudge
16:34:56preglowasm is a pain in the ass to maintain too
16:35:03preglowsince few people do it
16:35:12markunpreglow: it's only interesting for people who want to use the codecs on similar platforms
16:35:13preglowbut if the code is factored properly, it's just a case of disabling it
16:35:57pondlifeJust wondered if the MK6008GAH is a suitable replacement drive for an H340 - e.g. https://secure.santechusa.com/advert.asp?id=28805
16:36:28markunpreglow: does it have a ZIF connector?
16:36:29B4gderpondlife: petur replaced his hd in h3xx
16:36:34markuneh, for pondlife
16:36:47peturyes but mine was a 8007
16:36:52preglowspeex guy seemed interested in our changes, but we have none yet
16:37:01B4gderhehe
16:37:14peturand the last digit is the revision, so anything above 7 might be a problem
16:37:32PaulJampondlife: the MK6008GAH has a zif connector that doesn't fit into the h300. you would need to find a MK6006GAH.
16:37:51pondlifeAh, so what's the connector of the ...06GAH called?
16:38:00pondlifeA different sort of ZIF..? ;)
16:38:17peturATA or IDE
16:38:31peturthey mention ZIF it is ZIF
16:38:37pondlifeOld school notebook ATA then...

16:54:58GodEaterindeed - I've learnt that lesson the hard way
16:55:02GenjuroXLthe /chanserv alias works just fine
16:55:13ender`just use /nickserv, it's the safest (assuming your irc client doesn't convert that to /msg nickserv)

16:55:44GodEaterwhat does it do ?
16:55:48GenjuroXLwell

16:56:22GodEaterso if I leave off the /, I'll still transmit my password to the channel
16:56:26GenjuroXLi.e. to identify just use /nickserv identify <password>
16:56:30GodEateror mistype it in any other way

20:47:34DerPapsta1titude: rockbox has no usb driver for the iPod. so if you want to sync your ipod you either have to use diskmode or the OF
20:47:50linuxstbDerPapst: We just need to disable those IRAM optimisations for mpegplayer - the build system now compiles libmad separately for the main codec and mpegplayer, so that's straightforward.
20:48:14a1titudeDerPapst: ahh, thanks
20:49:22DerPapstlinuxstb: so moving mpegplayer out of iram means that it runs even slower than it does already now on 3Gs?

21:22:33perldiveri already asked but im going to ask again, does anyone know what happened to the BlackGlass theme for the gigabeat?
21:23:15DerPapstmaybe it got deleted due to copyright violation
21:23:32DerPapstdid it show the windoes logo or any other logos?
21:23:35linihey guys
21:23:39DerPapst*windows
21:23:51liniit says that i have to talk to the staff in #rockbox
21:23:58liniabout write wiki rights
21:24:14perldiverDerPapst well all other BlackGlasse's stayed
21:24:24linuxstbperldiver: Check the history of the page - if it was removed by Cassandra within the last few days, then it was most likely a copyright issue.
21:24:42perldiverlinuxstb again, all other BlackGlasses ports stayed
21:25:10linuxstbperldiver: Was it removed by Cassandra in the last few days?
21:25:35perldiverlinuxstb the thing is, it never was on the wiki page, only rockbox-themes one
21:25:57linuxstbAh, so you're asking why it was removed from rockbox-themes.org?

21:38:28perldiveri tried it on gigabeat with the rotation patch
21:38:43perldiverits quite impressive
21:39:08DerPapstrotation patch?
21:39:33perldiverphkTAPE WPS is fun too
21:39:53perldiverDerPapst yes, there's a rotation patch for gigabeat that lets you use it in the landscape mode
21:41:04DerPapstah.. that kind of rotation :)
21:41:25perldivermarkun you should try the resume patch
21:41:50markunis it a patch to the flash?

21:48:06n1spatrick__: you need an unofficial patched build, look in the unsupported build ssection of the forum
21:48:45markunperldiver: you were right, you don't need to change the flash bootloader
21:49:20pixelmapatrick__: you should have a look at the AlbumArt wiki page too
21:49:23patrick__n1s: I'm using the prebuilt rockbox-jbuild, is that it or is it something specific to album art I should look for?
21:49:54godzirraSo I need to figure out what cool new stuff rockbox has added over the past 6-9 months. I've not had a chance to use it since then.
21:50:16DerPapstpixelma: do you mean the manufacturer of the tape?
21:50:17Bagderquite a few things have happened during that period
21:50:25perldivermarkun good :P
21:50:37godzirraBagder: like what?
21:50:49markunperldiver: maybe I can start to commit small parts of that patch
21:50:50Bagdersee http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/MajorChanges
21:50:54n1spatrick__: well, if it has the album art patch applied it should work, but as pixelma said look at that wiki page, and search the forums, we cannot support these builds
21:51:04godzirraBagder: thanks

22:03:13amiconnBut why not just rolo the new build? Did you mess up the flashed version?
22:04:05XavierGrI just upgraded to a new build, but I get that plugins are incompatible, so I assume that the player boots from flash and can't find the compatible plugins which were replaced by the new ones
22:04:22amiconnSure

22:49:53Nico_Pdid you discuss that at devcon ? does the policy have something to say on that ?
22:49:54Nico_Pok
22:50:15Bagderif the code piece/change is small, then we can consider it fair use
22:50:19XavierGrwell I don't see a problem if the anonymous contributor is ok with that

22:51:30BagderXavierGr: yes, so we don't accept their code
22:51:53Nico_PBagder: then maybe adding something about it in the various pages about contributing would be good

22:55:46XavierGroops sorry about that :\
22:55:57Bagder"suggestion" being the keyword
22:56:04XavierGryeah I noticed that now
22:56:52Bagderand really, very many larger projects these days reject anonymous contributions
22:57:00Bagderso its not like we are unique or anything
22:57:16badsheepywhats the reasoning behind rejecting them
22:57:29badsheepyi dont see how it hurts anything?
22:57:31XavierGrwell again, I thought that the problem arised with people that did want to take credit
22:58:03Bagderbadsheepy: two reasons: we want the project to be by real people with real names
22:58:15XavierGrbut if the commiter adopts it as his code then there is no anonymosity
22:58:18 Quit a1titude ("Download Gaim: http://gaim.sourceforge.net/")
22:58:18Bagderand there's possibly a legal angle to it, but that is the lesser reason
22:58:27BagderXavierGr: yes there is
22:58:42XavierGrwell not practically at least
22:58:58Bagderwe loop the discussion now
22:59:22XavierGrbut okay I won't argue about it, I just think it would be a shame when some really usefull snippet is rejected
22:59:43Bagderwell, that's very rare

23:01:40bluebrotherthey also talk a bit about the contribution issue
23:01:46XavierGrBagder: well I guess that if someone doesn't want credit then he could simply make up a fake name...
23:01:50bluebrotherbesides, it's quite interesting anyway

23:10:11preglowhmm, using 32 bit l/r iis transfers might be cool on ipods too
23:10:34linuxstbamiconn: Does the log file get overwritten?
23:10:43amiconnnope
23:10:51amiconnIt uses create_numbered_filename()
23:11:13linuxstbOK. Do you want the 75MHz version as well?
23:11:19amiconnNah
23:11:32amiconnA test with the patch applied would be more interesting
23:11:34linuxstbSo I'll do the same with your 80GB patch?

23:21:27linuxstbAlmost no change in read speed, a small drop in write/create.
23:22:00amiconnLooking really good
23:22:38amiconnThe values are very similar to what I get on the G5.5/80, except for creating and writing in 512 byte blocks
23:22:41linuxstbBTW, this was ipod55g-4.diff, hopefully that's the latest.
23:23:00amiconnIt is, except for a missing sanity check in ata_init()
23:24:10amiconnThe write through cache seems to be too simple a solution :(

23:27:25linuxstbYou're welcome. Are you planning to commit tonight?
23:28:06amiconnNot sure yet. I'll try a few more things regarding more compact and/or faster code
23:28:21amiconnFirst thing is a single sector cache instead of 2
23:28:41amiconnMaybe it's just constant seeking that hits performance here
23:29:13amiconn~2MB/sec on an "ordinary" video vs. 23KB/sec on the 80GB is a shame

23:30:19amiconnAll these changes won't influence other targets or even other G5s
23:31:10amiconnYour test was for verifying that this statement holds, and that the additional condition checks don't hit performance too much

23:43:40sgarrityrunning as root doesn't change anything
23:43:58Bagdersgarrity: I think it wants it unmounted
23:44:16Bagderor am I possibly just tired?
23:44:16sgarrityBagder: ah! I'll try that
23:44:59LloreanI think it does need to be unmounted for linux users, yes

23:45:55sgarrityLlorean: it's a used device, so I can't be certain - but I don't think so
23:46:40n1ssgarrity: you could try to build ipodpatcher from svn, a fix for this was comitted today
23:46:49LloreanUnless they've uploaded the newest version of ipodpatcher, the current version looks for some magic information as part of determining if a device is an ipod
23:47:00LloreanAttempts at manually repartitioning it can destroy that information.
23:47:25sgarrityso trying the latest version from SVN is worth a shot?
23:47:29n1ssgarrity: also, your nano isn't second generation, is it?
