12:10:32guest56Hi, about the frotz plugin. is there any wayto use a differnet font? My screen is kind of small, so I wanted to use Tiny. Is there an option for that?
12:13:12gevaertsguest56: a quick look at the source tells me it uses the system font, so no, it's not configurable without work on the source

12:21:07Tornehandling fonts in frotz is tricky
12:23:10Torneit needs a fixed width font, currently
12:23:19Torneto use the user font i think i'd have to print the characters one at a time.
12:24:43Torneit needs a better screen model to handle variable pitch :/

12:49:29*[Saint] wonders if it is compiled for application builds.

12:51:40[Saint]plugins on application builds are a silly idea period, but hey!

20:20:29[Saint]It's largely irrelevant tthough I believe, I don't think it cares at all about the capacity.

20:20:36saratogaare we doing a 3.11.3 release ?
20:20:45amee2ki haven't had a TV for the better part of a decade now
20:21:21amee2k[Saint]: yeah well intuitively i'd agree. but it still was never designed for more than 4GB so there could be awkward issues

20:22:35amee2k"just trusting" that things work for stuff they were never designed to do is a dangerous game

20:55:30amee2k[Saint]: i was thinking more like a real read/read+write test. not just the smart shit
20:56:13amee2ki've had drives with clear signs of failure (freeze-ups, scrambled sectors, clicking, you name it) vigorously insist that they are fully functional according to SMART
20:56:51[Saint]Oh, yes, we do have a read/write test I believe...but none of the test plugins are compiled by default.
20:57:01amee2ko.O
20:57:04[Saint]You'll need to compile your own build for that.
20:57:20amee2kjust something that stresses the drive and is written in a way that *expects* failure, i.e. doesn't just freeze up when something goes wrong

21:03:22amee2kneat
21:03:36amee2kthats more like it
21:05:13[Saint]Setup pretty much consists of "checkout sources, run one script", then building for any given target is approximately 5 commands the first time, and 1 or 2 for subsequent builds of the same target.
21:06:09amee2kim gonna try it tomorrow... got to finish homework for two more classes to finish tonight

21:07:41amee2kyou want to do my homework for statistics and database theory? ;)
21:07:58[Saint]Ah, nevermind. It has been updated to point to git.
21:08:28[Saint]Yeah, the above link will guide you through it.
21:10:16gevaerts[Saint]: the problem with SMART is not that nobody got around to doing it, it's that SMART attributes are non-standard and a mess
21:11:16[Saint]There is a set of "standard" SMART attributes though, no? Its just some that do their own weird shit I thought.
21:11:50gevaertsAlso, I'm not convinced that test_dusk is the right tool to use. It will show driver and controller issues, but it doesn't do a test of the entire disk
21:11:56amee2ki think so. there is at least a health indicator that just gives a good/bad result that seems to be fairly standard
21:12:08amee2kthe problem i have with smart isn't the interface
21:12:16amee2kit is that the returned values are simply unreliable
21:12:27amee2kmost annoyingly it gives false-good results
21:13:10[Saint]With a good/bad result, you may as well flip a coin. :)
21:13:31amee2klol
21:13:47amee2ki'd rather put it in my test box and dd over the drive
21:13:54[Saint]gevaerts: test_disk shows read/write though, no? That's all that is wanted here.
21:13:55amee2kif the box crashes, the drive is screwed up
21:14:11amee2kcall the manufacturer, lie about that you ran their shitty test too and ask for an RMA number
21:15:17gevaerts[Saint]: it does, but only a few hundred KB IIRC
21:15:25gevaertsOr maybe a few megabytes
21:15:50gevaertsSo sure, if that's enough, go for it, but if you don't believe a drive is good I'd say it's not good enough as a test

21:26:32[Saint]Yeah, that was the one I was interested in personally.
21:26:37Tornethe main thing you need to do any kind of low-level benchmarking or disk reads/writes is for storage_read_sectors and storage_write_sectors to be added to the plugin api :)

21:32:45Torneit's probably not important
21:32:49gevaertshmmm
21:32:53Tornethe failed bit is kinda useless anyway
21:33:03Torneits' jsut the easy bit to implement.
21:33:11gevaertsYou can do an IDE controller on a breadboard with switches, does the same thing go for a drive?
21:33:31gevaertsIf so, you can build a broken drive on an arduino :)
21:33:42gevaerts(or seven arduinos)
21:34:34[Saint]Without actually looking, I'm sure there must be smell form of "emulate a disk which is broken in various configurable ways" tool out there.
21:34:46Torne[Saint]: when you say "tool" i hope you mean "physical thing"
21:34:52Torneanyway, there really isn't any point testing it that way
21:34:58[Saint]smell form? Errr, *some form
21:35:13Tornebecause all it'll be doing is that testing that the code i expect to work works when used against a device that behaves how i expect
