#rockbox log for 2003-07-09

00:00:07Zagorno, just asking
00:00:47[IDC]DragonI made my first 2 plugins, it would be a chance to upgrade.
00:03:19[IDC]DragonANother plugin question: for strange reasons, I had to make calls to button_get(true) twice, the first one just falls through. Am I doing something wrong?
00:04:14Zagorsounds like you're getting a button release you weren't expecting
00:04:21 Quit tracktheripper ("Leaving")
00:04:58[IDC]Dragonbutton release?
00:05:08Zagoryes, both press and release produce an event
00:05:45[IDC]DragonI don't care about such, just want to wait for a button to be pressed and get the result which it was.
00:06:10LinusN|away[IDC]Dragon: then throw away the release event
00:06:28[IDC]Dragonbutton = rb->button_get(true);
00:06:28[IDC]Dragon
00:06:28[IDC]Dragonif (button != BUTTON_F2)
00:07:04[IDC]DragonThat seems to be not enough. How do I filter out release?
00:07:30LinusN|awayyou can read just about any source file in rockbox to find that out
00:07:57Zagoryou need to loop until you get the button you want
00:08:40[IDC]DragonThat's what I did, and found only such straightforward code, so that I wasn't seeing release events.
00:09:14 Join msoultan [0] (msoultan@dhcp202-057.csulb.edu)
00:09:19[IDC]DragonAnyway, don't worry, I'll look closer.
00:10:57 Quit msoultan (Client Quit)
00:11:45Zagorabout the compression algorithm, i'm planning to make it possible for plugins to request use of the mpeg ram buffer (in which case the user must accept if music is playing)
00:12:29[IDC]DragonOh, that would help.
00:13:17 Quit _aLF ("bye")
00:13:50[IDC]DragonAt the very beginning (before the plugins came) I wanted the flasher code to do so, but now I work sector by sector, which is perfectly OK for now.
00:13:57MTLike supplied here, the first image is the original Archos firmware,
00:13:59MTumm
00:14:10MTjust to be a norty quibbler, we cant surely supply that
00:14:35[IDC]DragonWhy not? Archos does so as well.
00:14:35ZagorMT: you're right
00:14:44Zagoryes, but they own it. we don't.
00:14:57MTwooooah
00:15:03MTmy battery meter is going mad
00:15:05[IDC]DragonIt's downloadable from the internet.
00:15:11MTit goes 0, 34, 68, 100, 0
00:15:17MTand keep cycleing
00:15:27Zagoryes, but that doesn't matter. it's still illegal to redistribute it. quirky, but true.
00:15:40Stevie-Owhat if we acquired permission?
00:15:58[IDC]DragonHmm, then I'd need to compress it in at runtime?
00:16:29ZagorStevie-O: well, do you enjoy pulling teeth? ;)
00:16:39[IDC]DragonStevie: don't expect them to grant permission to out flash experiments!
00:16:47Stevie-Oi wouldn't expect that either
00:16:49[IDC]Dragonour
00:17:01Stevie-Obut i thought the question of permission was for providing copies of the original fw
00:17:12Zagordragon: either on-the-fly compression or an extra step with read-out+compress
00:17:42[IDC]DragonThe user could author the flash content by himself.
00:17:46MTor a simple pc tool to create the image from an archos firmware
00:18:18[IDC]DragonOff-line, I mean, from the dumped firmware and our stuff.
00:18:53[IDC]DragonJust makes it more complicated.
00:19:24Zagoryes. i think a plugin with compression would be the best solution.
00:20:05Bio_Hazardi be back
00:20:13[IDC]DragonI think for the first tests I'll ignore those concerns.
00:20:34Zagoryes
00:21:26Zagori'm just trying to be careful about not giving anyone a legal ground to give us a hard time
00:21:41Bio_Hazardanyway, i resized the GB image and text is for the most part, unreadable (it was pretty bad to begin with :) )
00:22:02[IDC]Dragonzagor: understood.
00:23:33Bio_Hazardthis renders RPGs (zelda, pokemon, FF) unplayable (or at least very difficult)
00:23:42Stevie-Ooh man
00:24:25Stevie-Oand I was hoping to play (reasonably well) on a 12mhz cpu, some games that were written for an 8mhz cpu
00:24:48Stevie-Obut doom is still a go, right?
00:24:56Stevie-Oerr doom 3
00:25:10Zagorduke nukem forever is my next plugin
00:26:11Stevie-Owhat about duke3d?
00:26:26Zagornah, too lousy graphics
00:26:31Stevie-Ook
00:26:31Stevie-Obtw, the office xp plugin should be in next week
00:26:44Zagorexcellent
00:26:53Bio_Hazardbut games like mario and stuff play for the most part... fun
00:27:06Bio_Hazard*rolleyes* i get it...
00:27:06Stevie-OI also ported Mozilla
00:27:20Stevie-OI need to get the ip-over-serial thing working though
00:27:41Stevie-Oalso, most webpages arent well optimized for 112x64
00:27:54[IDC]DragonI don't see it: how does button_get(true) give break codes? Everywhere the result is just compared against those defines, or switch-cased. Why does that not work for me?
00:27:55Bio_Hazardi get it, i get it...
00:28:04devZer0steve: wap-pages are :)
00:28:11Stevie-Obah
00:28:14Stevie-OI wanna read /.
00:28:16Stevie-Oon my mp3 player
00:28:26Bio_Hazardgezz... you thought it was a good idea a while ago... :P
00:28:37ZagorBio_Hazard: it's not really directed to you, it's more a running joke
00:28:37devZer0html2ascii will be ok 4 /. :D
00:28:50Bio_Hazardah...
00:29:02Stevie-Oits not?
00:29:03Bio_Hazardid like to see an RPG plugin
00:29:03Stevie-Oi mean
00:29:04Stevie-Oyeah
00:29:05DBUGEnqueued KICK Stevie-O
00:29:05Stevie-Oits not
00:29:11Stevie-Odude
00:29:15Stevie-Osomebody write 3-demon
00:29:16Stevie-O!
00:29:42Stevie-Ohttp://abandonware.universal.av7.net/Jeux/3-Demon.1983.html
00:29:44Bio_Hazardwhats up with sokoban lately?
00:29:50Stevie-Oi had that on my 8088
00:30:03Bio_Hazardit dosent seem to work...
00:30:03Stevie-Othe music was from The Sting
00:30:21Zagoropera7 has a neat display mode: small screen. it renders any page 250-pixel wide
00:30:35hardeepBio_Hazard: you need to put the levels.txt file in /.rockbox/sokoban
00:30:40 Join OMFG100038DKDDkd [0] (~the_yetti@ip68-8-155-134.sd.sd.cox.net)
00:30:44hardeepBio_Hazard: file can be found at rockbox.haxx.se/levels.txt
00:30:47Bio_Hazardlevels.txt?
00:30:56devZer0heee - not so much energy on the gaming stuff. this is an MP3 JUKEBOX. go buy a gameboy if you want to play games :D
00:31:48devZer0ok - some more arcade classics would be nice, though :D
00:32:06OMFG100038DKDDkdAny of the dev team available for some tech help?
00:32:08devZer0asteroids, breakout, pacman.....
00:32:45OMFG100038DKDDkdI've skimmed over the bugs and faq and I think I have a unique problem
00:32:54ZagorOMFG100038DKDDkd: go ahead
00:32:58devZer0omfgabcdefghijkl: i think some are still here
00:33:00Bio_Hazardi still think GB EMU would be cool
00:33:01devZer0:)
00:33:12Bio_Hazardeven if overkill
00:33:22OMFG100038DKDDkdI have a jukebox 6000 and I just did install your 2.0 versoin for this player
00:33:29OMFG100038DKDDkdInitialy everything ran fine
00:33:39OMFG100038DKDDkdI played with settings and what not
00:33:58OMFG100038DKDDkdbut after messing with the playlist it was giving problems
00:34:03OMFG100038DKDDkdconstant slow downs
00:34:11OMFG100038DKDDkdnow it doesn't completely boot
00:34:19Bio_Hazardi cant get playlists at all :P
00:34:38ZagorOMFG100038DKDDkd: doesn't boot?
00:34:48OMFG100038DKDDkdI'll turn it on and it will display ROCKbox!
00:34:59OMFG100038DKDDkdand nothing else and will go no further
00:35:05Bio_Hazardwe should be able to customize the logo
00:35:29OMFG100038DKDDkdthe red led comes on aswell
00:35:59ZagorOMFG100038DKDDkd: odd. have you tried a daily build?
00:36:02Bio_Hazardwhat does viewer.rock do?
00:36:16Bio_Hazardand HelloWorld.rock
00:36:21ZagorBio_Hazard: it's the text viewer
00:36:25devZer0omfg: if you mount the box to usb - do you have access to the disk?
00:36:28OMFG100038DKDDkdNo I haven't, and the thing is I won't be able to because my computer locks up when I plug in the USB
00:36:37devZer0bio: helloworld shows "hello world"
00:36:38devZer0:D
00:36:44Bio_Hazardthats all?
00:36:52ZagorBio_Hazard: it's a plugin example
00:36:53devZer0it`s just a example plugin
00:36:56Bio_Hazardah
00:36:58 Nick LinusN|away is now known as LinusN (~linus@labb.contactor.se)
00:37:33Bio_Hazardanyone willing to give me a sample of code to make scrolling text (like the credits)
00:37:48devZer0omfg: did your computer do that before?
00:37:56hardeepBio_Hazard: how about looking at the credits code... =)
00:37:56Bio_Hazardand anyone know of a good free C compiler?
00:38:01ZagorBio_Hazard: why not simply look in the credits?
00:38:04OMFG100038DKDDkdNo my computer ran fine
00:38:19devZer0bio: look @ the sources for the scrolling text :)
00:38:33Bio_Hazardi have never programed before... im so new so ill be asking a LOAD of dumb questions...
00:38:52devZer0bio
00:38:55Bio_Hazardwhat do i need to start
00:39:03LinusNOMFG100038DKDDkd: i think your file system may have been corrupt, and the playlist creation f*cked it up good
00:39:14Bio_Hazardprogramming in win
00:39:14OMFG100038DKDDkdYeah seems like it
00:39:16devZer0bio: if you never programmed before, i don`t think rockbox code is the best place to begin...
00:39:21LinusNand the rockbox image got overwritten
00:39:22Bio_Hazardi know
00:39:42Bio_Hazardi have done ACS but thats different
00:39:48devZer0omfg: it also could be a hardware problem with the hdd....perhaps...
00:40:02LinusNOMFG100038DKDDkd: try too start the jukebox and plug in the usb cable after a few seconds, before rockbox starts
00:40:14OMFG100038DKDDkdalright hang on
00:40:19Bio_Hazardjust start it with the usb in
00:40:33LinusNBio_Hazard: butnhe says the computer hangs
00:40:38LinusNbut he
00:40:49OMFG100038DKDDkdyeah its hanging right now
00:40:52Bio_Hazardthe comp hangs on archos usb?
00:41:01Bio_Hazardor rockbox?
00:41:06devZer0bio: did you program any languages? what is acs?
00:41:17LinusNOMFG100038DKDDkd: did you plug in the usb cable before starting the jukebox?
00:41:37OMFG100038DKDDkdWow hang on
00:41:40OMFG100038DKDDkdthat was new
00:41:46Bio_HazardACS = Action Code Scripting (HEXEN) it is like C++ im told...
00:41:59Bio_Hazardim quite good at it
00:42:01OMFG100038DKDDkdI powered it on and after a few seconds plugged it in
00:42:33LinusNand KABOOOOOM!
00:42:43OMFG100038DKDDkdand my computer hung for a long while
00:43:02OMFG100038DKDDkdI'm trying to browse in My computer
00:43:42Bio_HazardOMFG: are u using Win98?
00:43:50OMFG100038DKDDkd2k
00:43:53Bio_Hazardnm
00:44:22OMFG100038DKDDkdyes this is really slowing my computer down but I think I'm making progress
00:44:23Bio_Hazardi sometimes have probs with that... but browsing thru a network usually works...
00:45:28devZer0omfg: does your archos hdd sound "normal"?
00:45:38OMFG100038DKDDkdYes it does
00:45:44devZer0you should do a scandisk and check the filesystem for errors
00:45:48Bio_Hazarddid you give it the RBM treatment?
00:46:04OMFG100038DKDDkdThat is if I could browse to it
00:46:40OMFG100038DKDDkdI'll be back in a bit, I'll try to see if I can browse to it
00:47:39Bio_Hazardso how would i begin coding ROCKS under win98? any environments i need? compilers?
00:48:23devZer0bio: if you gonna learn programming, you should get a book about C and an compiler - maybe http://www.bloodshed.net/dev/devcpp.html could be useful
00:48:32Bio_Hazardi have a book
00:48:38Zagorhttp://rockbox.haxx.se/docs/firsttime.html
00:49:17devZer0for hacking rockbox, i have an win32sdk in the "queue" - it will support building the uisimulator, so you can easily build
00:49:23devZer0and test ".rocks"
00:49:40Bio_Hazardreally?
00:49:40devZer0and the helloworld is a good way to start
00:49:54devZer0you could install cygwin, too
00:50:12Bio_Hazardwhat <i>is</i> cgywin?
00:50:13devZer0my sdk is just a stripped down and easier to install version of that
00:50:43Bio_Hazardi need a fairly simple to install version
00:52:03Bio_Hazardi know how to code in ACS, i know how to use Windows and DOS and Photoshop (i know that PS has nothing to do with rockbox) fluently...
00:53:04devZer0bio: stay tuned - sdk will be released soon, i think
00:53:10Bio_Hazardcool
00:53:40devZer0if you can`t wait, i could send you "preliminary" version
00:53:51Bio_Hazardso, how does a compiler work? do you just run a notepad file with code in it thru the compiler?
00:54:10hardeepuhm, there is already a stripped down cygwin available for rockbox: http://rockbox.my-vserver.de/win32-sdk.html
00:54:18hardeepand you can build the win32 uisimulator from it
00:54:24devZer0yes - this is what i`m talking about
00:54:33devZer0no - not yet!
00:55:10hardeepdevZer0: are you roland?
00:55:22devZer0yes :)
00:55:27hardeepah, okay
00:55:39hardeepdevZer0: i thought you had a working simulator build
00:55:56devZer0yes - but it`s not for public download yet
00:56:13Bio_Hazardi would really rather have an exe file
00:56:13devZer0i announced it on the list once - but it was too early...
00:56:26devZer0you get an exe file :D
00:56:31Bio_Hazard:D
00:56:38Bio_Hazardi cant wait...
00:56:57devZer0mhhh
00:57:24devZer0wait a moment
00:58:24Bio_Hazardi shall produce "the worlds most worthless plugins" and maybe even "a program that only 1 person in the history of the universe would ever be able to possibly fathom a use for" plugin!
00:58:58Bio_Hazardthats if all goes well
00:59:06devZer0i send you a link
00:59:11Bio_Hazardcool
00:59:13Bio_Hazard:D
00:59:15devZer0www.my-vserver.de/RockBox-SDK_Win32.exe
00:59:22devZer0ähhh
00:59:47devZer0rockbox.my-vserver.de/RockBox-SDK_Win32.exe
01:00
01:00:04devZer0but we need some manual tuning
01:00:33Bio_Hazardso i just run that to sim rockbox?
01:00:58devZer0you need that so you can COMPILE the simulator
01:01:07Bio_Hazard?
01:01:13devZer0the simulator is not a simulator which runs .ajz files
01:01:18Bio_Hazard(inexperince is kicking in)
01:01:22devZer0as you are used to....
01:01:40devZer0normally a simulator does interpret original firmware roms
01:01:50devZer0think of gameboy simulators....
01:01:58Zagorno, that's an emulator
01:02:05Bio_Hazardan EMU and a SIM are different
01:02:07devZer0ok - you are right :D
01:02:27devZer0the uisimulator is just a special "rockbox build"
01:03:00devZer0most of it is the same code - there is some code added to make it a windows/linux application
01:03:28devZer0and so, you need to rebuild it if you change something inside rockbox code
01:04:01Bio_Hazardso i get a rockbox source packet, treat it like a GB rom and feed it to the prog you put up?
01:04:20devZer0mhhh
01:04:29devZer0not exactly
01:04:37Bio_Hazardor is there a special source packet?
01:04:52Bio_Hazard(after i do this once ill rebember)
01:05:08devZer0my exe is just a self extracting "zip alike" archive
01:05:34devZer0it installs into a directory structure and you have somewhat a minimalistic "unix" environment on your windows pc
01:05:58devZer0it delivers all the tools you need for the build process of rockbox
01:06:16devZer0i.e. there is a shell, there is a compiler, there is a linker, there are libraries.....
01:06:21Zagori'm off for bed. see you, guys
01:06:23devZer0and headerfiles...
01:06:26 Quit Zagor ("Client exiting")
01:06:27devZer0bye zagor
01:06:57devZer0then you download the rockbox source
01:07:06Bio_Hazardso i put what files where?
01:07:23devZer0you put the sourcefiles to a special directory
01:07:32Bio_Hazardhttp://rockbox.haxx.se/showlog.cgi?date=2003-07-08%2014%3A20%3A00&type=Recorder%20-%
01:07:34devZer0and then start the "configure" script
01:07:34Bio_Hazardthat one?
01:07:38 Join Nibbler [0] (~Nibbler@port-212-202-193-217.reverse.qdsl-home.de)

01:08:46devZer0look on http://rockbox.haxx.se/daily.shtml
01:08:53devZer0there are source tarballs
01:09:03devZer0you know what .tar.gz is?
01:09:11Bio_Hazardno i dont
01:09:22devZer0it is similar to .zip
01:09:35devZer0you can download that and "unzip" that.
01:09:40Bio_Hazardi know that much
01:09:52devZer0(ok, on unix that is 2 steps - first ungzip, then untar)
01:10:08[IDC]DragonLinus, how is that: For coldstart, I repeat the first 3 steps of ata::init() for 10 seconds, until they go through, with sleeps inbetween.
01:10:09devZer0and you have all the files belonging to rockbox "in place"
01:10:12Bio_Hazardstep 1. get tarball...
01:10:39devZer0inside the tarball there is a script called "configure"
01:10:44Bio_Hazardgetting tarball = http://rockbox.haxx.se/daily/rockbox-daily-20030708.tar.gz
01:11:11devZer0configure asks you, which type of rockbox you want to build, in which language etc...
01:11:17freshmakerhello there!
01:11:21devZer0hello!
01:11:34Bio_Hazardtarball http://rockbox.haxx.se/daily/rockbox-daily-20030708.tar.gz gotten
01:11:45Bio_Hazardstep 2. unzip tarball
01:11:53devZer0no - first install the sdk
01:12:03Bio_Hazard?
01:12:10devZer0without that , the tarball is nothing - it`s just the sources
01:12:17devZer0did you download the win32 sdk?
01:12:21Bio_Hazardyea
01:12:27devZer0please install it
01:12:34Bio_Hazardi unzipped it
01:12:39devZer0eg to a folder c:\rockbox-devel
01:12:57devZer0i hope you didn`t unzip to c:\
01:12:58Bio_Hazarddoes it need to be root?
01:13:05Bio_Hazardof course not
01:13:16devZer0root? on a windows box?
01:13:16Bio_Hazardonly a fool unzips to c:\
01:13:20devZer0:D
01:13:39freshmakeri have a problem with latest CVS and resume: it always fails with "error accessing playlist control file". there is a /.rockbox dir and the playlist file is created but empty.
01:14:03Bio_Hazardits on my desktop
01:14:07Bio_Hazardin a folder
01:14:12devZer0fresh: look into the irc log - this was discussed today, as far as i can remember
01:14:13LinusNfreshmaker: use the latest bleeding edge build
01:14:42devZer0bio: the desktop is not the best place - because paths are very long
01:14:52Bio_Hazardi c ur point
01:14:59devZer0i would recommend, you unpack it to c:\a-folder-you-like
01:15:02Bio_Hazardd:\rockboxdev
01:15:08freshmakerLinusN: I just pulled it out of CVS and compiled it. it is the latest version (1.201 tree.c)
01:15:16Bio_Hazardd:\ is a logical partition
01:15:39LinusNfreshmaker: hmmm
01:15:41devZer0ok - so put it to d:\rockdevel
01:15:44devZer0or whatelse
01:15:58[IDC]DragonLinus, how is that: For coldstart, I repeat the first 3 steps of ata::init() for 10 seconds, until they go through, with sleeps inbetween.
01:16:01Bio_Hazardmoving...
01:16:18Bio_Hazarddone
01:16:21LinusNfreshmaker: have you played a file with your new build?
01:16:56LinusN[IDC]Dragon: sounds like a cludge
01:16:58freshmakerLinusN: Yes, of course. That's how i tested the resume.
01:17:11LinusNfreshmaker: can you repeat it?
01:17:53LinusNtry to delete the playlist file and try again
01:18:19freshmakerLinusN: Yes. Delete /.rockbox/.playlist_control, reboot, play a file, reboot and try to resume.
01:18:42[IDC]DragonLinus: yes, it is a kludge. Unless somebody tells me how to do it correct...
01:18:52freshmakerthe file is always empty
01:19:10LinusN[IDC]Dragon: i guess that "somebody" is you
01:19:29[IDC]Dragon;-)

01:58:03freshmakerLinusN: playlist.c from the latest source tarball is also 1.79

02:02:18MTcode that doesnt do what you want :)
02:02:40MTyou know the stuff, you sit there thinking "GRR, how can i do this nicely"
02:02:46Stevie-O[IDC]Dragon: yeah, I know
02:03:00Stevie-Othe emulator takes those values the very way you gave them
02:03:07Stevie-Othe adc emulation then shifts left 6 bits :D
02:04:44freshmakerLinusN: rockbox20030708.ajz has the same problems for me

02:10:33LinusNfails?
02:10:41OMFG100038DKDDkdI doesn't do it
02:10:52LinusNbut do you safely remove the jukebox?
02:11:00OMFG100038DKDDkdat one point it said Loading rolo
02:11:16LinusNaha, you try to delete it with rockbox?
02:11:29OMFG100038DKDDkdYes
02:12:12LinusNand when you insert the usb cable when rockbox is running, what happens?
02:12:22freshmakerNow that's the culprit: the pserver protocol still connects the the sf.net backup server (that's 24h behind).
02:12:44LinusNfreshmaker: yup
02:12:53OMFG100038DKDDkdThe Jukebox confirms the hook up by saying [USB MODE]
02:12:58OMFG100038DKDDkdbut the computer still hangs
02:13:09LinusNwow
02:13:27LinusNmaybe the FAT is corrupt, so w2k is confused
02:13:54OMFG100038DKDDkdif it were corrupt would it still be able to run on the jukebox
02:14:43LinusNsure
02:14:56OMFG100038DKDDkdThis is so frustrating
02:14:58LinusNit all depends on what windows does
02:15:15Stevie-Odoes anyone have one of these supposed 'old recorders'

02:23:01Nixedhello. Quick question... Is there a key command that allows rockbox to reboot into the Archos Os?
02:23:14LinusNyes and no
02:23:23Stevie-Othe archos fw doesn't seem to probe
02:23:38LinusNdownload the archos firmware from www.archos.com and put it on the jukebox
02:23:45LinusNunder a different name
02:24:06LinusNarchos.mod -> archos-orig.mod
02:24:15LinusNor ajbrec.ajz -> ajbrec-orig.ajz
02:24:20NixedI remember with one daily build version of rockbox, If I pushed down the on button, it rebooted into Archos OS. It doesn't work with the latest versions.
02:24:31LinusNthen you can select the firmware file and Play it in rockbox
02:24:34Stevie-Odo we have any idea about the first OS version for the 'new' recorders?
02:25:00NixedLinus - I think I'll do it your way. It's easy enough.
02:25:06LinusNStevie-O: what are you trying to achieve?
02:25:11Stevie-Owell
02:25:29Stevie-Othe archos fw (as far as i can tell) isn't probing the ata io address
02:25:48Stevie-Owhich I find intriguing
02:25:49LinusNStevie-O: the hw mask tells you
02:26:07Stevie-Oif that were the case, why doesn't RB use the hw mask?
02:26:17Stevie-Orb probes the ata address
02:26:22LinusNbecause that code was written before the hw mask was doscovered
02:26:44Stevie-O...
02:26:52Stevie-Oand nobody bothered to change it?
02:27:00LinusNwhy change code that works?
02:27:12NixedIf it isn't borken...
02:27:13Stevie-Ocuz [idc] is trying to boot from code that probes the ata address
02:27:24Stevie-Oand it doesn't seem to be working all that great on his end ;)

02:57:56[IDC]Dragonhardeep: yes.
02:58:18[IDC]Dragon"Error accessing playlist control file", how is that doing?
02:58:55[IDC]DragonIt's a splash I get on startup.
02:59:06hardeep[IDC]Dragon: Do you have resume enabled?
02:59:24[IDC]DragonI think so, yes.
02:59:39hardeep[IDC]Dragon: also, please make sure your using latest CVS (not anonymous but ssh developer cvs)
02:59:49[IDC]DragonI do.
02:59:56hardeep [IDC]Dragon: what version of playlist.c are you using?
03:00
03:00:17[IDC]Dragon1.80
03:00:44hardeepokay, and the error is "unable to access", not "invalid playlist control file" ?
03:01:11[IDC]DragonI literally typed it in, yes-
03:01:38hardeep[IDC]Dragon: okay, what happens when you start play on a new track, and then try to resume?
03:02:14[IDC]Dragonhang on...
03:02:47hardeep[IDC]Dragon: it sounds a lot like the bug that Linus fixed, have you updated the version on the jukebox?
03:03:25[IDC]DragonYes, multiple trimes since I coudn't belive it, made a clean build, etc.
03:04:29[IDC]DragonAftet the different track, it's gone.
03:04:34[IDC]DragonAfter
03:04:47[IDC]Dragon(IRC typo king today)
03:04:58hardeep[IDC]Dragon: okay, good. What probably happened is you had started a track with the old firmware and then never played something new after you updated.
03:05:17hardeepso it was still the corrupt control file
03:05:35hardeep[IDC]Dragon: i'd say the latest cvs is in good shape for your flash stuff
03:05:51[IDC]DragonAhh, good. So the bleeding edge isn't broken.
03:06:15[IDC]DragonI considered that a "showstopper" for my flash release.
03:06:44Stevie-O[IDC]Dragon: did you see my question?
03:06:54[IDC]DragonNow we're working on ATA instead...

03:08:10Stevie-Otry an

03:08:36[IDC]DragonThere comes the hen and the egg.
03:08:59[IDC]DragonOr chicken and egg, how do you say?
03:09:18Stevie-Othe chicken and the egg?
03:09:27Stevie-Oi fail to see how this is a chicken-and-egg problem
03:09:51Bio_Hazardso, when i need to look at the original source .c files for rockbox, how do i get rid of the boxes in the files? (i assume that me using Win98SE has something to do with it)
03:10:25hardeepBio_Hazard: you need to use something other than notepad to develop
03:10:34Bio_Hazardlike what?
03:10:36hardeepBio_Hazard: download metapad, it's free
03:10:37[IDC]Dragonata_hard_reset() needs ata_device, which is later discovered by master_slave_detect()
03:10:44Stevie-Ooh
03:10:50 Join sobepmp [0] (name1234@adsl-20-222-74.mia.bellsouth.net)
03:10:55Stevie-Owell
03:11:01[IDC]DragonMaybe whe can reset both
03:11:04Stevie-Othat should really be an easy one
03:11:06Stevie-Oyeah
03:11:08Stevie-Oreset both
03:11:24Stevie-Oa non-present device will be read as 'not busy' at any given time
03:11:44Stevie-Othe ata spec requires it, so nonexistent devices don't lock up simple wait loops
03:12:12[IDC]DragonOh, that's good, I was just worrying.
03:12:30Stevie-Oyeah, I was worried about that too
03:12:32Stevie-Oin fact
03:12:34Stevie-OI had it wrong
03:12:55Stevie-Oand I was locking up early on because i had the non-present slave device return always busy
03:13:31Stevie-O(in my emulator)
03:13:39[IDC]Dragonshure.
03:14:36[IDC]DragonOK, I can reset both. How do I then wait for spinup? Or don't I need to?
03:14:56Stevie-OI don't see why you'd need to
03:15:09Stevie-Othat won't be necessary until we have to read from the drive
03:15:34Stevie-Oyou can still run from your uart loader, right?
03:16:01[IDC]DragonYes, that's no issue.
03:16:06Stevie-Oright
03:16:16Stevie-Oso it should be easy to test it initially on yours
03:16:36[IDC]DragonAbout the init sequence:
03:16:55[IDC]Dragonmine failed on check_registers(),
03:17:09***Alert Mode OFF
03:17:11Stevie-Oi bet i know why
03:17:16Stevie-Othe drive was probably still busy
03:17:20[IDC]Dragonif ( ATA_STATUS & STATUS_BSY ) return -1;
03:17:32Stevie-Oin 'busy' state, all those registers will actually read from the alt. status register
03:17:40[IDC]DragonBusy from what?
03:17:50Stevie-Opower-on reset
03:18:01[IDC]DragonNot being hard-resetted?
03:18:08Stevie-Othe thing just turned on
03:18:15Stevie-Oit's probably doing some internal initialization
03:18:20Stevie-Orunning rom checksums and all
03:19:06[IDC]DragonAnd the hard reset brings it to listen, or do I have to poll for not busy?
03:19:28Stevie-Oata_hard_reset() calls wait_for_bsy()
03:19:35Stevie-Owhich waits until the BUSY bit is 0
03:19:49[IDC]Dragonirritating function name...
03:19:55Stevie-Oyes
03:20:05Stevie-Oshould be 'wait_while_bsy'
03:20:21Stevie-Oor something :P
03:20:48Stevie-Owait_for_bsy will return more or less immediately when the ata_device being reset isn't present
03:21:19[IDC]DragonOK, I think we got that.
03:21:57[IDC]DragonJose's box was failing earlier, in master_slave_detect()
03:22:25 Quit Bio_Hazard (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
03:22:33 Quit OMFG100038DKDDkd ("(i was using polaris) version:[2.05c] webpage:[http://www.polaris-central.com]")
03:22:41[IDC]DragonThat checks for STATUS_RDY.
03:22:51Stevie-Othat's different
03:23:12Stevie-OSTATUS_BSY and STATUS_RDY are actually not opposites
03:23:13Stevie-Oin fact, they're not even mutually exclusive
03:23:37[IDC]Dragonif they would, one would be redundant ;-)
03:23:41 Quit BoD[] ("dodozitude")
03:23:50Stevie-Oyeah, but ATA was designed by a committee
03:24:04Stevie-Oif I recall correctly, STATUS_RDY means that the device is waiting to send or receive data
03:24:53[IDC]DragonIs that master_slave_detect() code correct then?
03:25:06Stevie-Ookay
03:25:16Stevie-Oonce having completed the power-on reset
03:25:39Stevie-Othe device shall set DRDY to 1 within 30s
03:25:54Stevie-Oso this is looking more and more like you need to call ata_hard_reset at the start
03:26:02[IDC]Dragon30 s!!! Not ns?
03:26:07Stevie-O30s
03:26:14Stevie-Oi think that was designed for cdrom drives
03:26:23Stevie-Othe same thing happens in wait_for_bsy
03:26:25Stevie-Oif you look
03:27:03Stevie-Ooh wait!
03:27:08Stevie-Onm
03:27:11Stevie-Oit's not for cdrom drives
03:27:17Stevie-Oweird
03:28:08Stevie-Owell, i think its obvious that nobody has a drive that takes 30s to boot
03:34:28[IDC]DragonI just tested the dual reset.
03:34:59[IDC]DragonNow I get the error -3 again,
03:35:30[IDC]Dragonmeaning check_registers() failed.
03:36:12Stevie-Odo you know what part of check_registers failed?
03:36:14[IDC]Dragonif ( ATA_STATUS & STATUS_BSY ) return -1;
03:36:31Stevie-Ointeresting
03:36:34[IDC]DragonOh, no, I don't know.
03:36:39Stevie-Ooh
03:36:50[IDC]DragonIt may as well be the other one.
03:36:51Stevie-Ois the lcd initialized already?
03:37:10Stevie-Omethinks a decent sprintf + lcd_puts is in order
03:37:24[IDC]DragonYes, I can do that.
03:37:50[IDC]DragonThe turnaround times with flashing are no good.
03:38:13[IDC]DragonI should use UART again, or gdb.
03:38:30[IDC]DragonBut I'm getting too tired.

03:56:21Bio_Hazardjust not on the sim
03:56:31hardeepBio_Hazard: yes, but where did you get them? were they built with the simulator?

03:57:51hardeepBio_Hazard: however, i know that the win32 sdk didn't have all the required tools
03:58:53hardeepBio_Hazard: download hardeeps.freeshell.org/dllwrap.exe and copy it to /usr/bin wherever cygwin is installed
03:59:11Bio_Hazardi need .C -> SIM and .C -> JBR

04:00:40Bio_Hazardi would like to make my own, but i cant figure out the compiler
04:00:58hardeepBio_Hazard: then download dllwrap.exe

12:32:33idefxHi, i've just flashed my ajbr, and, has it didn't work fine for me, i've just posted a mail on the mailing list. Any flashing expert here ??
12:40:32tracktheripperwhat JB do u have?
12:40:53idefxJBR20, the chips is the good one. No mod
12:41:20tracktheripperfor rockbox to work, the filename has to be ajbrec.ajz in the root of the HD
12:41:44tracktheripperif the filename isn't specifically ajbrec.ajz, it won't automatically bootup when u turn ur JB on
12:41:58idefxrockbox work fine, but the new flash stuff, released this morning, to make rockbox boot in 3 sec.
12:42:36idefxdoesn't work fine, i get an ATA error, which is not so bad cause i can still boot my box using the F1+on stuff.
12:43:13tracktheripperHow do I get to this flash stuff
12:43:15tracktheripperits all new to me

15:16:34MTinteresting bug
15:17:09MTwith the charger plugged in, my rockbox reports the battery percentage as 0, 34, 68, 100, 0, 34 ...
15:17:39MTlooking in Debug shows the correct %age
15:18:06MTjust testing to see if its not just my build that does this ..
15:22:29MTnope, does it with current bleeding edge too
15:24:34Stevie[FP]yeah
15:24:45Stevie[FP]it's trying to draw a 'charging' image
15:25:04MTah
15:25:14*Stevie[FP] is surprised most people don't figure that out for themselves
15:25:18Stevie[FP]0 = empty
15:25:22Stevie[FP]34 = 1/3rd
15:25:25Stevie[FP]68 = 2/3rds
15:25:27Stevie[FP]100 = all
15:25:37MTwell
15:25:54MThaving my numerical display switch from 100 to 0 is hardly intuitive
15:25:57Stevie[FP]you really shouldn't use the numeric battery meter anyway, it's painfully inaccurate
15:26:28MTits my option really
15:26:37Stevie[FP]so it is
15:26:38MTtbh
15:26:45MTif it is so bad, it shouldnt be in there
15:26:55MTto leave it in buggy is worse

19:35:19paulheuI do have a larger HD which is a bit slower starting up..
19:35:53[IDC]DragonIt's not the speed, its the way of waiting for it go get ready.
19:36:06[IDC]DragonThis code is not safe, yet.
19:36:46paulheuOh well as long as F1-ON works I am happy eperimenting..:) otherwise I guess I'll have to bring out the soldering iron..
19:37:12[IDC]DragonI know, I'm very glad about F1-On.
19:37:51[IDC]DragonOtherwise it would really be on the edge.
19:38:12[IDC]DragonStevie, are you there?
19:38:50paulheuYeah.. well since I saw the messages about F1-ON working I decoded to dive in.. otherwise I would have definately waited, but that would make it harder for you as well..
19:39:10paulheuLike you did not figure we'd find the tools :^}
19:39:31[IDC]DragonI didn't really try hard to hide them.

19:42:12[IDC]DragonOK, maybe I find another victim.

19:45:09[IDC]DragonHow do you know that?
19:45:14paulheuaccording to the debug screen
19:45:41[IDC]DragonIt does say that somewhere?
19:45:45paulheubut AFAIK teh jumper setting is master
19:47:01paulheuyes, when I get the error and press ON for debug the last line says: ATA: slave 0x0
19:47:35[IDC]DragonAh, this may be wrong, the code bailed out before.
19:48:32paulheuOK.. I was wondering about that,, as I am pretty sure all jumper removed is 'master without slave' seting on the HD
19:49:12paulheuNow do I need to open the archos to check? (would be tomorrow though..)
19:49:27[IDC]DragonNo, don't bother.
19:49:49paulheuok.. would not be a problem.. but have notime for it now..
19:49:54[IDC]DragonI'll send you a master-hardcoded version.
19:50:34[IDC]DragonHow much time you've got left? Enough for 1 or 2 flash runs?
19:52:58paulheuoh.. I have time.. can always take a later bus..
19:53:20[IDC]DragonNo, don't let this impair you.
19:53:59paulheuseriously.. I have to catch the 20:45 bus.. so there's time

19:58:07[IDC]DragonOK, email is out.

20:03:22paulheugot the new one from the list, found another thing: if I boot original firmware and remove USB I boot straight into Rockbox
20:04:18[IDC]Dragonoriginal firmware without ajbrec.ajz?
20:04:49paulheuLet me do that again...
20:05:02paulheuIT WORKS with hardcoded master setting
20:05:42[IDC]DragonFrom original firmware and your USB trick, or they way it should be?
20:06:47paulheuWhat I ment was that I copied the .ucl to my archos using the original firmware (F1-ON), as soon as I unplug the USB the original FW reboots and then Rockbox loads from flash.
20:07:19paulheuHOWEVER, your latest patch, with hardcoded MASTER setting works as it should, from off to play in 4 secs..;)
20:07:36[IDC]Dragonwas that with the normal Rockbox in flash, or the harcoded master version?
20:07:47paulheuthe normal
20:08:22[IDC]DragonOK, Archos seems to do a full reset when unplugging?
20:08:41[IDC]DragonThen the disk is ready and Rockbox succeeds.
20:08:44paulheuYes, the original formware does a warm reboot when you unplug USB
20:09:12paulheuwith your latest patch a cold reboot also works..
20:09:52[IDC]DragonOK. I'll do the master/slave detection in a different way for coldstart then. Will take me while, you'd better focus on your bus.
20:10:52paulheuOh.. it's a five minutes walk to the stop so I have another half hour or so..:) But seriously.. when I leave I disconnect so you'll know..;)

21:01:44hardeeper s/cip/chip
21:02:06[IDC]DragonThe plugin checks that again and quits.
21:02:36hardeep[IDC]Dragon: what if we bypass that check?
21:03:15hardeep[IDC]Dragon: just to make sure that the hw info check is correct
21:03:15[IDC]DragonYou can't program it, full stop. All the commands (erase sector, program bytes) will just do nothing.
21:03:37hardeep[IDC]Dragon: heh, so no damage will be done....
21:03:44[IDC]DragonRight.
21:03:52hardeep[IDC]Dragon: any chance of getting a version that bypasses the check?
21:04:16[IDC]DragonBelieve me, this is pointless.
21:04:29hardeep[IDC]Dragon: never hurts to try. :)
21:04:57[IDC]DragonIf the flash can't do the ID command, it won't do anything for you.
21:05:29hardeep[IDC]Dragon: well, i noticed the check you're doing is looking for certain manufacturers... what if you missed one?
21:05:52[IDC]DragonNo, it is generic.
21:05:56hardeep[IDC]Dragon: also, in your comments you mention that there is a possibility that your check won't work
21:06:10[IDC]DragonI changed my mind.
21:07:07[IDC]DragonThe alternative addresses I try are the same in the lower bits, and only those count.
21:07:13hardeep[IDC]Dragon: also, what if the sleep is not enough, etc. any number of possibilities...
21:07:48hardeep[IDC]Dragon: i know you mentioned that your chip is not flashable... did you actually try to do it though?
21:07:59[IDC]DragonOpen your box, have a look what chip is in. I'll hold a bet it's the SST37
21:08:56[IDC]DragonI know I have a SST37, and I have the datasheet for it.
21:09:39[IDC]DragonYou need to attach 12.5 Volts at certain times to 2 pins to bring it into programming mode.
21:10:17[IDC]DragonAnd it's not sector programmable, only as a whole.

21:16:46Zagorhi
21:17:25[IDC]DragonMy release turned out to become a field test. :-(
21:18:21Zagorheh, yeah. but you put out enough warnings, so I say the early testers did it on their own risk
21:18:55[IDC]DragonNo real risk, because of the Archos firmware also in.
21:19:15[IDC]DragonEverybody can still start it with F1-On.
21:20:04[IDC]DragonI dis som iterations with Paul. The ATA master/slave autodetect seems to be the problem.
21:20:14[IDC]Dragondid some
21:20:46[IDC]DragonIf I hard-code it to master, it works for him.
21:21:07Zagorok. I can do some tests if you've got any ideas to try.
21:21:19[IDC]DragonWhat tests?
21:21:38Zagorif you have ideas for solutions
21:22:15[IDC]DragonThe idea is to write a better autodetect.
21:22:46[IDC]DragonActually, are there people with slave disks?
21:22:51Zagoryes
21:23:09Zagorvery wrong, but unfortunately true
21:23:33[IDC]DragonDoes the Archos software handle that?
21:24:20Zagoryes
21:26:10Zagorwhat happens if you simply wait a second before calling master_slave_detect?
21:30:46MTZagor: can i distract you for a minute?
21:30:51Zagorsure
21:31:30MTive added a few patches to the tracker, one is for wormlet, adds menu functions and setting game parameters etc
21:31:58MTthe other changes the status bar to not show the 'charging animation' when it is in numeric mode
21:32:39MThttp://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=768153&group_id=44306&atid=439120 is the wormlet one
21:33:17MThttp://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=768466&group_id=44306&atid=439120 is the status bar one
21:33:44MTim just trying to make people aware of them, as I'm off on holiday soon, wont be able to hassle then :)
21:34:45Zagorhehe. yeah, i'll be away next week too. hopefully i'll merge these two before then.
21:35:10MTcool :)
21:35:32MTthe wormlet patch is the msot important one, stops midnight2k hassleing me :/
21:35:50Zagorhaha

22:30:11PhantomdjFirmware 00J3A0A2
22:30:20angelofbladecould someone answer a question i got for 2.0 for jukebox
22:30:31Zagorangelofblade: sure
22:30:45angelofbladewhat is the lowest kbs it runs
22:30:52PhantomdjI ve just one problem with it the free space is wrong
22:31:11Zagorangelofblade: uh, don't remember. 8 i think.
22:31:12angelofbladeuse your pc to check
22:31:18angelofbladego to run error
22:31:26angelofbladeright click on drive
22:31:33Phantomdjmy PC give the good free space
22:31:48angelofbladethanks
22:31:52angelofblade8 is good
22:32:22angelofbladewhere you get the info??? for it to be 8
22:32:33angelofbladei need to know for sure
22:32:41ZagorPhantomdj: that's a windows problem. later versions of windows doesn't use the proper way to store free space.
22:32:58Phantomdjyes but I talk about rockbox
22:33:21Zagorangelofblade: 32kbit is the lowest mp3 bitrate
22:33:28angelofbladehow come there is no op in here
22:33:49angelofbladei hear the fireware could change that bit rate
22:33:51ZagorPhantomdj: if windows writes bad info, rockbox can't know what's right
22:34:03Zagorangelofblade: we don't need ops here
22:34:11angelofbladehahahah i c
22:34:20Zagorangelofblade: firewire change bitrate?
22:34:53Phantomdjso it normal if the original firmware don't give me true free space too ?
22:35:12ZagorPhantomdj: yes
22:35:21PhantomdjARG
22:35:31Phantomdjis there a way to make it work
22:35:35angelofbladecould i run a 16kbs music on my jukebox 2.0 version
22:35:39Phantomdjwithout using linux
22:35:43Zagoryou can make rockbox recalculate free space by pressing PLAY in the "disk info" menu
22:36:20Zagorangelofblade: probably

22:37:22Phantomdj...

22:37:53angelofbladei have something that run 16kbs
22:37:54Phantomdjso, just to say you do a good job and I will wait until a perfect plug in
22:37:57Zagoruh, not bypass. pass.
22:38:09[IDC]DragonZagor, yes, I tried that, too.
22:38:10angelofbladei need to make space

22:41:59Zagorwe're chasing a bug
22:42:00[IDC]DragonI tried to do the master/slave detection based on these measurements.

22:47:55Phantomdj[IDC]Dragon : the first dump before use plugin ?
22:48:14ZagorGuest: it means you get "ATA error: -11" instead of successful boot

22:56:17angelofbladeBitTorrent is a P2P file swarming application. This means that as soon as you have downloaded a few chunks of a file it will start uploading it to others, thereby spreading the file better. Install the client to be able to download from BitTorrent.
22:56:28[IDC]DragonAre you an ATA expert? I'm not.
22:57:03Zagorwell, i know a bit having written several drivers
