00:05:34LinusNoops
00:06:15LinusNthen the DEMAND IRQ may be the fault
00:08:00[IDC]DragonMaybe an effect of stepping.

00:21:45[IDC]Dragonhttp://www.qrpff.net/~stevie/jbremu/jbremu.log.bz2
00:22:02[IDC]DragonUrl was via email. sorry.
00:22:20[IDC]DragonNote that it also uses 'MAS I2C' to refer to RTC accesses
00:22:20[IDC]Dragon(those are the 0xd0 ones). This is because originally I wrote it to support the
00:22:20[IDC]DragonPlayer, which has no RTC.
00:29:13LinusNah, now i remember
00:29:43LinusNno, i haven't examined that log in detail

00:57:30midknight2k3linus!
00:57:41midknight2k3I just remembered my brilliant idea!
00:57:47midknight2k3for rockbox.
00:58:02midknight2k3It was to have an automatic level control for when recording
00:58:09midknight2k3or ARLS
00:58:16midknight2k3auto recording level system
00:58:18midknight2k3is it possible?
01:00
01:03:30LinusNunfortunately not
01:04:17midknight2k3rats
01:04:56midknight2k3MICE!
01:04:59LinusNwell, it is possible to auto-adjust so the level is below a threshold
01:05:31LinusNbut to adapt and raise the level on silent parts will not work well at all
01:05:35midknight2k3but not back up again?
01:06:02midknight2k3not silent parts but when it gets loud, lower it and when it gets quiet raise it up to the point it was before
01:06:05midknight2k3that's it
01:06:07midknight2k3i got it!
01:06:28midknight2k3where you leave it, if it needs to go down it will but it won't go up past the spot you put it before
01:06:30LinusNwell, i meant quiet
01:06:44midknight2k3is my latest veriation possible?

01:09:03joshnlinus: I have a question. I'm port to a player with almost identical firmware, except that my player has to copy itself from flash (at 0x20000) to DRAM (at the same place as the Archos)
01:09:09joshnthen it boots normally
01:09:26joshnproblem is, I'm not an assembly programmer.
01:09:34joshnCan you tell me how to do it?
01:10:02LinusNmidknight2k3: we can adjust down, but not up
01:11:02midknight2k3that sucks
01:11:06midknight2k3but oh well
01:11:24LinusNjoshn: one way of doing it is to check if PC is in flash, then do a copy and jump to the new location
01:11:52LinusNor do you need a more detailed description?
01:12:02joshnhow do I copy? It will always be in flash to start with
01:12:12midknight2k3But you get what i mean with the part where it would only go up to the point you left it at, just like the Atuo Volume system already in the firmware?
01:12:13LinusNmemcpy
01:12:54joshnso I don't need to do it in crt0.s, like you do for some of the other stuff?
01:13:00LinusNmidknight2k3: the thing is that the resolution of the volume info is way too low to correctly analyze the volume
01:13:12LinusNjoshn: yes you do
01:13:41midknight2k3oh i get it now
01:13:55joshnor how can I know when to stop copying (or how much to copy)
01:13:58LinusNmidknight2k3: the auto volume is a MAS feature, not a firmware feature
01:14:52LinusNjoshn: you can either always copy the entire flash, or let the linker assign a symbol that you can use in the crt0 code
01:15:13midknight2k3but archos never used it?
01:15:21LinusNmidknight2k3: correct
01:15:37midknight2k3oh yeah and i got my other idea now too - you know on the fm recorder archos firmware dims the backlight out, it's a good idea
01:15:53midknight2k3does rockbox do that?
01:16:07LinusNyes, but i'm not sure that it is intentional
01:16:18joshnok, so I first copy the flash into DRAM, then call main()?
01:16:19midknight2k3i think so isnt it?
01:16:27midknight2k3if not it's good looking
01:17:36LinusNjoshn: i would copy it and call crt0 again, and let crt0 find out if it runs in ram or flash
01:17:48midknight2k3And that also leads into 2 other ideas: 1) backlight dimming and 2) according to time, turn backlight on and off (like at 9AM turn off and after 9PM turn on or something) or both combined: at 7am backlight dim 50%, at 8am 25%, 9am it's off, then at 5pm it's 20% and at 7 it's 50% - get it?
01:17:56LinusNmidknight2k3: it doesn't always dim
01:18:10midknight2k3yeah i noticed
01:18:14midknight2k3its weird
01:18:18LinusNwe can't control the dimming
01:18:38joshnexcuse my ignorance, but how do I call crt0 again?
01:18:52LinusNjoshn: the reset vector?
01:18:59midknight2k3oh ok
01:19:07midknight2k3bye then
01:19:09LinusNjust add the offset to the RAM

01:19:35joshnok, it's depressing how close the firmware's are under the hood.
01:19:52joshnBut I'm clueless when it comes to lowlevel stuff
01:20:03joshnI'll stick with C/C++ :-)

08:02:03OliverKlozoffanyway
08:02:09OliverKlozoffeither of you two have a newer fm or recorder?
08:02:14dwihnoIn Sweden (which is a really retarded country nowadays) you can't buy bigger bottles than 0.5 litres.
08:02:23PsycoXulheh
08:02:29dwihnoI have a recorder with the 1.26 firmware
08:02:30OliverKlozoffwhere you need a contrast of about 45-50 to see, instead of about 30?
08:02:36dwihno(A bit more than a year old)
08:02:41dwihnoNah, I use 30
08:02:44OliverKlozoffok
08:02:49OliverKlozoffyours is the old style :D
08:02:53dwihnoyeah :)
08:02:54OliverKlozoffat some point the lowered the voltage
08:03:11OliverKlozoffI have to set it to at least 45 to be able to see anything
08:03:17dwihnothe same official firmware still gives the same LCD brightness/darkness?
08:03:32dwihnoHm, you can't change the contrast with archos' firmware, I just remember :)
08:03:39OliverKlozoffyou can't?
08:03:55*OliverKlozoff never knew that...
08:04:12dwihnoIf there is some way to differentiate the 'old' and 'new' units, the default value could be changed
08:04:26OliverKlozoff....
08:04:35OliverKlozoffhttp://www.qrpff.net/~stevie/jbremu/fm_lcd_contrast.log
08:05:03OliverKlozoffif 'magic_bit' is 1 (old fw) the result is 31
08:05:11OliverKlozoffif 'magic_bit' is 0 (new fw) the result is 49
08:05:41***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
08:08:16dwihnohm
08:08:31dwihnoso 31 is the "archos" default contrast?
08:08:35OliverKlozoffdon't opera kick ass?
08:08:39dwihnoyou disassembled?
08:08:44dwihnoOpera kicks major butt!
08:08:47OliverKlozoff31 is the archos default contrast under old fw
08:08:58OliverKlozoffand thus on old models
08:09:17OliverKlozoffthat 'hw mask' is a magic bitmask in ROM that's used to indicate hardware changes
08:09:56OliverKlozoffand
08:09:57dwihnoyou should submit a patch
08:10:02OliverKlozoffdon't you know what I've been working on?
08:10:20dwihnothat would remove the problem with people who can't see anything upon rockbox installation
08:10:29dwihnohm, no, but I sense you will tell me :)

08:13:48dwihnoneato
08:14:02dwihnoyou actually connected your archos to the PC? :)
08:14:09OliverKlozoffno
08:14:26OliverKlozoffI ran the archos firmware from my FM on my PC

08:16:04OliverKlozoffand here is it complaining about the hard drive: http://www.qrpff.net/~stevie/jbremu/fixedadc.jpg
08:16:19dwihnoSo what have you done really?
08:16:24dwihnoSome kind of hardware emulation stuff?
08:16:25OliverKlozoffprobably because the partition it's using is only 64mb
08:16:47OliverKlozoffthat'd be why it says SS1815 Emulator
08:17:07OliverKlozoffalthough it's really a simulator for the lcd display
08:17:25OliverKlozoffthe ss1815 is LCD controller, which *is* emulated
08:17:36dwihnomkay
08:17:51OliverKlozoffgetting that code that determined the contrast to be used
08:18:02OliverKlozoffwas a matter of setting a few breakpoints

09:02:04dwihnoI.E add lots of printfs and see where it locks ;D

19:32:36quelsarukif you want to compile tools on cygwin you have to download real cygwin, but then you'll have to build the cross-compiler
19:32:59TBoybut I should be able to use the compiled ones
19:33:10quelsarukyups
19:33:20quelsarukummm
19:33:43quelsarukon cygwin write "convbdf"
19:34:00quelsarukon the tools folder
19:34:11quelsarukjust to see if you get some info
19:34:43TBoy$ convbdf

19:35:25quelsarukare you in the tools folder??
19:35:32TBoyyes

19:39:20quelsarukumm
19:39:22quelsarukanyway
19:39:34quelsaruki think the problem is not on the convbdf

19:39:46TBoythat is what I am thinking

19:44:04TBoywhat
19:44:26quelsaruki dunno where the problem is
19:44:31quelsarukor how to repair it
19:45:20TBoymaybe its because I don'T have the sysfont file
19:45:41TBoysysfont.sys
19:45:45TBoyi mean
19:45:47TBoysysfont.c
19:46:51TBoyplease don't give up on me ;)
19:46:57quelsarukumm
19:47:03quelsarukyou create that sysfont.c file
19:47:20quelsaruki mean, convbdf creates that file using a font on the source code
19:47:26TBoyI thought I create the .o
19:47:30quelsaruknop
19:47:34quelsarukyou create the .c file
19:47:35TBoyI thought that was the output file
19:47:54quelsarukthe comand is convbdf -c -o sysfont.c
19:48:02TBoyout of the clR6x8.bdf
19:48:10quelsarukyups
