| 00:58:24 | HCl | if you want my honest opinion |
| 00:58:26 | HCl | no. |
| 00:58:38 | HCl | since people are already spending most of their free time on development |
| 00:58:49 | HCl | extra money wouldn't help with creating more free time |

| 01:01:33 | asdsd | so its not a money problem |
| 01:01:54 | asdsd | but wouldn't u guys be able to hire like high quality engineers with 20K? |
| 01:02:03 | asdsd | and u can all afford plenty of h320s and h120s |
| 01:02:22 | HCl | well. it might speed up the development for h320s |
| 01:02:34 | HCl | since as far as i know none of the core coders have access to one of those |
| 01:03:34 | asdsd | ah-man |
| 01:03:49 | HCl | can anyone here confirm that pea is *the* way to push values onto the stack? |
| 01:03:58 | asdsd | oh yeah and then all u guys would be able to receive a hardware debugger right? |
| 01:04:15 | asdsd | well pea is push effective address right?, sounds right to me |
| 01:04:17 | HCl | well, i suppose that would indeed help some people, if there were more bdms |
| 01:04:38 | HCl | i know i'd have less of a hard time debugging rockboy |
| 01:04:42 | HCl | but we want a gdb stub anyways |
| 01:04:47 | HCl | which is both cheaper and nicer |
| 01:04:55 | asdsd | great hcl, so its settled ill start a fundraiser tommorow washing cars and selling cookies and ill donate 20k |
| 01:05:01 | HCl | :P |
| 01:05:04 | HCl | well, what would help |
| 01:05:19 | HCl | if if you keep most of the 20k, and spend part of it on an engineer who'll make us a coldfire gdb stub |
| 01:05:23 | HCl | :P |
| 01:05:24 | asdsd | whats a gdb stub? |
| 01:05:40 | HCl | its a small program that allows gdb to remote debug the iriver |
| 01:05:50 | HCl | through the serial port thats on the pcb |
| 01:06:08 | asdsd | oh i see |
| 01:06:12 | asdsd | hey that wud be pretty useful |
| 01:06:24 | HCl | yes |
| 01:06:34 | HCl | cause then everyone would have an fairly easy way to debug |
| 01:06:52 | HCl | (all you need to do is open up your iriver, solder or otherwise attach two wires to the serial port, hook it into your serial port |

| 01:31:30 | amiconn | How do you know about the efficiency? |
| 01:31:46 | HCl | memory accesses are really expensive at the moment |
| 01:31:47 | amiconn | I mean, without the complete implementation... |
| 01:31:58 | amiconn | prethom: Missing libs? |
| 01:32:10 | HCl | well, ofcourse i haven't implemented all the possible optimization yet |
| 01:32:20 | HCl | in the end, it should be faster. i'm mostly worried about the slow ram of the iriver |

| 01:32:39 | HCl | people make it seem that way |
| 01:32:40 | HCl | o.o |
| 01:32:42 | asdsd | hey i got an idea, how about with the 20k i raise i bribe some of the iriver core engineers to help the rockbox project |
| 01:32:58 | amiconn | The archos has fast page mode ram. Accesses are 1 cycle as long as the page is open |

| 01:34:20 | prethom | in what makefile do i add it? |
| 01:34:31 | amiconn | Well, the plugins are libs, so they should get relocated on load (?) |

| 04:43:24 | ashridah | it's just a method of getting better performance |

| 07:11:19 | asdsd | wouldn't it be slower if it has to dynamically recompile the rom to run it in a faster way? rather than just run it in the slow way? |
| 07:13:48 | ashridah | asdsd: it's a balance, certainly. |
| 07:15:05 | ashridah | the idea is that if you recompile a piece of code once, then rerun it a few thousand times a second (for, say, drawing to the screen), you save, so you identify common often used routines and have the dynarec code replace them with faster hardware specific variants |
| 07:15:15 | ashridah | the exact approach depends a lot on the original code |

| 07:15:45 | HCl | flatmates with the iq of a caveman suck -.- |
| 07:15:53 | ashridah | if i recall earlier conversations, nintendo gave developers a common library to use, and replacing the common code in the library will be a general optimisation that always works. i'm not sure if this is the case for the gameboy tho |

| 08:43:38 | HCl | its not in the coldfire manual, but gcc made it for me when i told it to optimize a piece of code |
| 08:44:34 | HCl | i must say i'm a bit confused about the code that gcc generates.. |
| 08:45:24 | ashridah | are you compiling with -O0 ? |
| 08:45:39 | ashridah | or -O2 ? |
| 08:46:32 | HCl | -O3 |
| 08:46:38 | HCl | it manages to do a=((2*b)&0xFF) ? 0 : 0x80 | |

| 08:46:46 | ashridah | right |
| 08:46:47 | HCl | which is pretty ok |
| 08:47:02 | HCl | but i'm having trouble understanding its code |
| 08:47:02 | ashridah | looking at the code OPTIMISING gcc generates is probably an exercise in futility. |
| 08:47:11 | HCl | why? |
| 08:47:15 | ashridah | -O0 will follow the code you wrote |
| 08:47:22 | ashridah | because it's optimising ;) |
| 08:47:29 | HCl | yes, well, i want it to optimize O.o; |
| 08:47:46 | HCl | cause my implementation of the same code would be far less effecient |
| 08:47:48 | HCl | efficient* |
| 08:47:50 | ashridah | not while you're picking it appart |
| 08:48:07 | HCl | no, i do want to optimize it o.o i need to know a good assembler way of doing it. |
| 08:49:13 | HCl | i could ofcourse just slap the gcc output into my dynarec, but i prefer to know how it works first |
| 08:49:30 | amiconn | ashridah: That's the strangeness of gcc: Sometimes it generates ultra-cleverly optimised code, and in other places it uses plain stupid code that's easily optimised to double speed by hand. That's my own observation, with -O1 on sh |
| 08:49:52 | ashridah | i didn't say gcc was GOOD |

| 09:51:19 | markun | I got grayscale working. I will send a picture once my digital-camera-owning-flatmate wakes up. |
| 09:51:28 | amiconn | Imho the speed won't change |
| 09:52:36 | markun | amiconn: I now made lcd_drawpixel_color(x,y,c). You told me once not to do this, should we have lcd_set_color(c) and lcd_drawpixel(x,y)? |
| 09:53:35 | amiconn | We need to keep an eye on size (not specifically for iriver, but for archos and maybe others) |
| 09:54:08 | amiconn | My suggestion is still to have some drawing states, and a foreground and background "colour" |
| 09:54:38 | | Join R3nTiL [0] (~zorroz@83.69.98.15) |
| 09:55:14 | amiconn | This is also adaptable to b&w, and will imho even produce smaller binaries |
| 09:56:23 | amiconn | Look at the grayscale lib. This has 4 drawing modes, draw_foreground, draw_background, draw_solid and draw_inverse |
| 09:56:53 | amiconn | draw_foreground and draw_solid are identical for single pixels, they draw the pixel in the foreground colour |
| 09:57:04 | markun | ok, so draw_background is like draw_clear |
| 09:57:28 | amiconn | draw_background draws the pixel in the background colour, and draw_inverse does a bitwise invert |
| 09:58:20 | amiconn | draw_background is like today's clear_* routines for b&w, as long as we consider the 2 "colours" as fixed |
| 09:58:35 | markun | I will have a closer look at your grayscale lib. |
| 09:58:41 | amiconn | i.e. foreground = black and background = white |
| 09:58:59 | amiconn | The grayscale lib allows you to set these individually |
| 09:59:45 | amiconn | The differentiation between draw_foreground and draw_solid becomes clear when you look into fonr drawing |

| 10:00 |
| 10:00:03 | markun | Another thing: lcd_bitmap is now implemented using draw_pixel. It's very slow. I can make a lcd_bitmap_2bit (or something) which is just like the old lcd_bitmap. |
| 10:01:14 | amiconn | We still need to process 1 bit input bitmaps. So for displays with > 1 bit, imho we need 2 routines. Again, the grayscale lib example: |
| 10:01:57 | amiconn | There is gray_draw_bitmap(), which draws an 1-bit bitmap, using the selected foreground and background colours and the draw mode |
| 10:02:47 | amiconn | Then there is gray_draw_graymap, which draws a full grayscale bitmap, i.e. the source bitmap uses 1 byte per pixel |
| 10:04:42 | amiconn | Both routines should of course be optimised for the actual lcd, imho this is why Linus decided to use a separate lcd driver file for iriver (planning for 2-bit support) |
| 10:06:19 | markun | looking ahaid: if we ever want anti-aliased fonts on iriver it would be more efficient to have a draw_graymap that expects 2-bit bitmaps. |
| 10:06:34 | | Quit R3nTiL () |
| 10:06:42 | markun | ahead.. |
| 10:07:36 | amiconn | I'm still unsure whether anti-aliased fonts make sense on a mobile unit, but if we go for it, I'd suggest to use a more universal format, i.e. 1 byte/pixel |
| 10:08:17 | markun | That would make for very large fonts of cource. But during the loading of the font we could convert the bitmaps of course. |
| 10:08:23 | amiconn | (Thinking further ahead, e.g. gmini 220 has 4-bit greyscale, iRiver H3xx even has colour |
| 10:09:00 | midk | methangas. |
| 10:09:14 | methangas | yes? |
| 10:09:46 | amiconn | markun: A propos large fonts: iirc you were working on unicode support. How much binary size does that add? |
| 10:10:20 | amiconn | And did you have a look at font caching? There is a chinese rockbox patch in the tracker that uses font caching. |
| 10:10:35 | * | HCl sighs. |
| 10:10:41 | HCl | this gcc code *cant* be correct :( |
| 10:10:50 | markun | It depends what the difference between the first and the last char code in the font is. max_bitmap_size * (last_char - first_char) |
| 10:11:21 | markun | Yes, I looked a bit at font caching, but I am still thinking of the best way to do it. |
| 10:11:26 | amiconn | No, I don't mean the font size, I mean code size |
| 10:11:57 | HCl | http://titania.student.utwente.nl/flagstuff |
| 10:12:02 | amiconn | (Thinkingn about adding that to rockbox in general, including the archos units) |
| 10:12:19 | HCl | i'd appreciate it if someone would look at it and might be able to explain to me why exactly those two things are equal |
| 10:12:51 | amiconn | markun: Unicode should be even possible for the players to some extent, if you followed the forum thread for russian support on players... |
| 10:12:55 | markun | I made a small unicode.c that added some code, but I also got rid of the unicode2iso table and funcitons. |
| 10:13:06 | | Nick QT_ is now known as QT (as@area51.users.madwifi) |
| 10:13:08 | markun | No, I did not follow that. |
| 10:14:33 | amiconn | (code size). Okay, what's the net size change, i.e. rockbox.iriver with/without unicode support? |
| 10:14:33 | * | markun is reading the forum thread |
| 10:16:13 | markun | Well, I don't have a completely clean rockbox, but the unicode version is actually smaller than my grayscale (without unice) |
| 10:16:28 | markun | unicode:-rw-r−−r−− 1 karl karl 160936 Feb 27 09:41 rockbox.iriver |

| 10:17:04 | markun | s/unice/unicode/ |
| 10:17:54 | amiconn | Hmm. This looks like the unicode version is about 1K larger than the grayscale verion |
| 10:18:07 | amiconn | *versionm |
| 10:18:11 | amiconn | *version even |
| 10:18:53 | markun | No, I made a mistake. The first one is grayscale and the second one in unicode. |
| 10:18:59 | amiconn | Ah ok. |
| 10:19:09 | markun | Wo big is your rockbox.iriver? |
| 10:19:14 | markun | How.. |
| 10:19:40 | amiconn | I have no rockbox.iriver as I have no iriver. |
| 10:19:57 | amiconn | I do compile for various archos units |
| 10:20:32 | markun | HCl: Do you have a rockbox.iriver compiled from a clean cvs? |
| 10:20:33 | amiconn | These are naturally a bit larger, because of the whole playback code being there |
| 10:22:21 | HCl | markun: no |
| 10:23:09 | amiconn | The current archos fm/v2 recorder binary is almost 184 KB (187984 bytes). There is a hard limit of 200 KB for archos firmwares |
| 10:23:24 | markun | amiconn: I send you a patch, can you take a look at it? |
| 10:24:23 | amiconn | Yeah... I really like to, but I don't know whether I manage to do so. My time is limited, and I'd really like to get the simulators working correctly first. |
| 10:24:41 | markun | ok, no problem. |
| 10:32:23 | amiconn | Hmm. The unicode patch makes utf-8 default, correct? That means, the .lang files need to be converted to utf-8, and we'd need a new convbfd tool thta creates unicode font? |
| 10:33:34 | amiconn | Of course lcd-recorder.h and the player lcd handling also needs attention |
| 10:33:58 | markun | Yes, UTF-8 is default now. convbfd still works for latin1 and unicode fonts. |
| 10:34:25 | markun | I also changed lcd-player.c, but the changes are not included in the patch. |
| 10:35:10 | markun | It worked ok in the simulator. |
| 10:35:43 | amiconn | Bah, I'm writing bullshit. Of course it is convbdf, lcd-recorder.c ... |
| 10:36:51 | amiconn | Hmm. Perhaps I should try that patch in a separate cvs checkout... |
| 10:37:13 | markun | My writing's also terrible. I even picked up convbfd from you :) |

| 10:39:22 | amiconn | convbdf works correctly for unicode? I'd need a small unicodifed .fnt for testing. It should contain cyrrilic, and I'd also like to have russian.lang in utf-8 (the latter should be easy) |
| 10:40:06 | amiconn | *cyrillic |
| 10:40:24 | markun | I have a font of 5x7 that is 8KB in size.. |
| 10:40:41 | amiconn | No standard 6x8? |
| 10:40:44 | markun | And a 6x13 font that is 20KB. |
| 10:41:20 | markun | No, but I could also make a 5x8 or 6x10 if you want. |
| 10:42:38 | amiconn | I'll compile first, let's see how large the binaries get. |
| 10:42:59 | markun | Do you want my unicode.h too? |
| 10:43:11 | amiconn | It' |
| 10:43:18 | amiconn | s not in the patch? |
| 10:43:23 | markun | no |
| 10:44:22 | markun | Which of the fonts do you want? 5x7, 5x8, 6x10 or 6x13? |
| 10:44:54 | amiconn | Please send 5x8 and 6x10 |
| 10:45:09 | amiconn | Where do I put the single files, i.e. unicode.[ch] |
| 10:45:11 | amiconn | ? |
| 10:47:21 | markun | in .c in firmware/common .h in firmware/include |

| 10:57:33 | LinusN | hey ho |
| 10:59:07 | markun | LinusN: I wrote you an email about my cross compiler problem on FreeBSD. Did you get it? I'm not in a hurry to get it fixed, so if you don't have time it's no problem. |
| 10:59:30 | markun | amiconn: did it compile? |
| 10:59:41 | amiconn | No, not yet. |
| 11:00 |
| 11:00:00 | amiconn | Now it does... there are warnings though |
| 11:00:53 | markun | Yes, I know. The compiler is not happy the way I use const trings.. or are there more warnings? |
| 11:01:26 | *** | Saving seen data "./dancer.seen" |
| 11:01:42 | amiconn | 4 warnings about discarding qualifiers (const) |
| 11:02:35 | markun | I have some commented out code in unicode.h where I tried to fix those warnings. |
| 11:02:39 | amiconn | Unicode support adds 500 bytes so far. Not bad. |
| 11:03:04 | markun | font caching will add some more.. |
| 11:03:11 | amiconn | Yes of course. |
| 11:03:32 | amiconn | It looks that this is manageable for the archos too |
| 11:04:26 | LinusN | markun: i had the same problem once with cygwin |
| 11:04:46 | LinusN | but i don't have a clean solution for it |
| 11:04:50 | amiconn | markun: Wow, this really eats buffer space |
| 11:05:57 | markun | LinusN: well, for now it compiles and works (at least on iriver) |
| 11:06:03 | markun | amiconn: Does it eat too much? |
| 11:07:19 | markun | amiconn: did the russian language file work? |
| 11:07:32 | amiconn | Hmm, no it doesn't :( |
| 11:07:50 | amiconn | The menus are all empty, I need to navigate blindly... |
| 11:08:01 | markun | Strange. Did you load the font? |
| 11:08:16 | amiconn | yup |
| 11:08:49 | markun | Let me check here.. |
| 11:12:10 | markun | I now get: Language /russian-utf8.lng too large: 7000 |
| 11:12:27 | markun | Maybe that's the problem? |
| 11:18:56 | markun | In apps/language.h you need to change MAX_LANGUAGE_SIZE to something bigger than the russian.lng file. |
| 11:19:31 | markun | I had to do a make clean to get it working. |
| 11:21:39 | | Part LinusN |
| 11:22:47 | amiconn | I did a fresh build, and the .lng actually loaded. |

| 11:25:27 | amiconn | The utf-8 handling itself seems to have problems. Maybe I copied something wrong from lcd-h100.c |
| 11:29:07 | amiconn | Hmm. It looks just right... |
| 11:33:38 | markun | Could you still see the files on your archos? |
| 11:34:46 | amiconn | yes. |
| 11:35:23 | markun | Can you put a russian file on it? |

| 13:08:25 | markun | no news. I'm trying to study a bit. |
| 13:10:15 | markun | But it's hard with all these rockbox ideas in my head. |
| 13:10:35 | preglow | no shit |
| 13:10:53 | amiconn | Hmm. I'll try a cyrillic filename. Just need a method to create one |
| 13:11:15 | markun | Can I send you one over irc? |
| 13:11:38 | amiconn | I think this won't work. Irc doesn't handle unicode... |
| 13:12:05 | preglow | it does if both ends use utf8 charset :P |
| 13:12:18 | preglow | irc is charset agnostic |
| 13:12:24 | amiconn | Yeah... but windows uses utf-16 for filenames |
| 13:12:27 | markun | I do, do you amiconn? |
| 13:12:48 | preglow | windows uses ucs16, not utf |
| 13:13:55 | markun | ucs-2, no? |
| 13:14:02 | preglow | ahh, yes |
| 13:14:42 | markun | I used the UTF-16 decoder to convert the fat filenames. Also works with UCS-2 of course. |
| 13:15:51 | markun | amiconn: do you have the textviewer? I can send you a file with some utf-8 in it. |
| 13:16:02 | * | preglow pats utf-8 |
| 13:16:20 | amiconn | Does the textviewer need any change? I guess not... |
| 13:16:40 | preglow | amiconn: have you looked at the proportional font support patch some guy sent? |

| 13:20:04 | amiconn | Now I have a file with a russian name... |
| 13:20:22 | markun | I also sent you a unicode.txt file |
| 13:20:35 | amiconn | Hmm. All cyrillic characters show up as spaces.... |
| 13:20:42 | markun | :( |
| 13:20:49 | markun | The font did change? |
| 13:21:01 | amiconn | Ah, I forgot something... |
| 13:21:37 | amiconn | Hmm, it's the same with the font you sent me :( |
| 13:22:50 | markun | Where could it go wrong? Decoding in fat.c or displaying or font loading? |
| 13:22:54 | amiconn | Ooops, this font can't be loaded completely. It's 147 KB |
| 13:23:06 | markun | Ah, I sent the wrong one? |
| 13:23:16 | amiconn | 6x10.fnt: 147 KB |
| 13:23:27 | markun | I'll send you the right one.. |
| 13:24:34 | markun | What version of 5x8 did I send? Also without -stripped? |
| 13:25:11 | amiconn | 5x8 is stripped, and works for file names |
| 13:25:39 | markun | Great, than it's probably just updating MAX_LANGUAGE_SIZE in language.c |
| 13:25:56 | markun | Hope your archos has any memory left.. |
| 13:26:01 | amiconn | New 6x10 works too. |
| 13:26:10 | markun | great, and the unicode.txt? |
| 13:26:43 | amiconn | Hmm. deutsch.lang needs to be utf-8 converted too in order to work. |

| 13:29:17 | rasher | amiconn: dansk? |
| 13:29:25 | markun | It's small enough |

| 13:29:51 | lImbus | wow. a thousand never heard nicknames in here :-) |
| 13:30:11 | Sucka | :D |
| 13:30:12 | amiconn | rasher: I guess all .lang files need to be converted, except english.lang perhaps |
| 13:31:06 | markun | amiconn: Did you try deutsch-utf8.lng? |
| 13:31:08 | amiconn | markun: With the correct font, russian menus work partly. How much do I need to increase MAX_LANGUAGE_SIZE? |
| 13:32:04 | markun | Well, russian.lng is about 10KB, I put it to 20KB on my iriver, but you could use less. |
| 13:32:04 | lImbus | amiconn: I see the 2.5-release is overdue if rockbox still wants to issue new versions every second month. |
| 13:32:35 | amiconn | deutsch-utf8.lng works, although I see some other places need adjustment to unicode |
| 13:32:41 | lImbus | I don't know how far multivolume and hotswap is going, but I think the tag database is worth a new version- |
| 13:32:56 | markun | Really? What kind of adjustments? |
| 13:33:17 | amiconn | There is the recorder button bar, and the F1 text "Menü" is no longer centered. |
| 13:34:15 | markun | maybe it uses strlen? |
| 13:35:24 | amiconn | Yes it does. |
| 13:35:38 | amiconn | apps/status.c, line 297 |
| 13:35:49 | amiconn | text_width = fw * strlen(caption); |
| 13:36:03 | amiconn | This is of course wrong with unicode |
| 13:36:18 | amiconn | I suspect more such places, e.g. the recorder quickscreens |
| 13:36:50 | markun | It should use lcd_getstringsize |
| 13:37:09 | markun | Also because of variable-width fonts. |
| 13:37:10 | amiconn | This is a bit dirty anyway, since it assumes no-proportional font |
| 13:37:26 | markun | :) |
| 13:37:38 | amiconn | However, the builtin default font is fixed width for good reasons |
| 13:38:16 | amiconn | It is used in a few other places in a way that assumes fixed width, and would need significantly more code for proportional support |
| 13:38:32 | amiconn | One such example is the virtual keyboard |
| 13:38:53 | markun | What will the virtial unicode keyboard look like? :) |
| 13:39:08 | amiconn | Yeah... that's a real problem |
| 13:41:35 | markun | I wonder what a chinese keyboard look like.. |
| 13:41:36 | amiconn | Ooops... the credits list also needs utf-8 conversion. Otherwise Björn might not agree to add unicode support ;) |
| 13:43:06 | markun | amiconn, do you know yudit, the unicode editor? |
| 13:43:18 | amiconn | No. |
| 13:44:06 | amiconn | I guess that we need a configuration file for the keyboad, depending on language |
| 13:44:46 | markun | It has a lot of input-methods. Select japanese for example and type in konnichiwa and there you have your japanese text.. |
| 13:45:52 | markun | amiconn: The textviewer also needs some charset translation routines, or should we forse everyone to use UTF-8 text files? :) |
| 13:46:41 | amiconn | Agreed. I'd think most western text files still use latin1. |
| 13:46:57 | markun | unicode.c has a latin2utf8 |
| 13:47:18 | amiconn | However, that'd mean to make it configurable, or add some kind of auto-detection (if at all possible) |
| 13:47:19 | markun | no, it's called latin1encode |
| 13:47:57 | markun | Check the first x bytes. If it contains invalid UTF-8 chars switch to latin1.. |
| 13:48:04 | amiconn | utf-16 can be auto detected by the endian marker, but what about utf-8? I'm not that much into unicode details... |
| 13:48:43 | markun | It can be detected. No problem. |
| 13:49:06 | amiconn | But I agree that unicode support in rockbox is definitely a move forward, and that utf-8 is the way to go. |
| 13:49:11 | markun | But if you have a lot of ascii and the latin1 stuff is at the end of the text we have a problem.. |
| 13:50:23 | amiconn | It still needs some work though, as it has to work with all units. The archos recorders are not the biggest problem, they just need some font caching. |
| 13:51:05 | amiconn | Font caching will be necessary anyway for languages with a big glyph range, like chinese |
| 13:52:02 | amiconn | The players are a bit harder, since they should also handle unicode as far as possible. |
| 13:52:34 | preglow | so you have to redefine the display font on the fly? :/ |
| 13:52:49 | amiconn | The player lcd code already does this |
| 13:53:25 | amiconn | However, it's not possible to show only redefined chars - there are only 8 (or even 4 with the old lcd) |
| 13:53:50 | amiconn | It uses some very clever dynamic remapping & replacing |
| 13:54:44 | amiconn | Of course it will never handle the full unicode range, but I think it's possible to handle at least latin-1 (as now) plus cyrillic and greek to some extent |
| 13:55:17 | preglow | ahh |
| 13:55:24 | markun | greek with only 4 or 8 chars to redefine will look a bit strange. But with some practice it's probably readable :) |
| 13:55:27 | preglow | i've got a lcd just like that |
| 13:55:44 | amiconn | There are some greek chars already defined |
| 13:55:55 | preglow | seems like most lcds are pretty similar |
| 13:56:43 | amiconn | The plus side is that although only 8 chars can be redefined, the whole lcd can only show 22 chars (2 lines 11 chars each), so 8 out of 22 isn't too bad |
| 13:57:03 | markun | true |
| 13:57:04 | preglow | ahh, it's that small |
| 13:57:07 | amiconn | Plus, I intend to exploit similarities. |
| 13:57:08 | preglow | mine is 8x16 |

| 14:08:00 | preglow | yes |
| 14:08:08 | amiconn | (New as in unused and in original package) |
| 14:09:23 | preglow | how does the driver handle it if there are not enough free user-definable characters to show what's needed? |
| 14:09:57 | amiconn | This is explained in the mentioned page. It shows a replacement char instead. |
| 14:10:32 | CoCoLUS | http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000983033519/ |
| 14:10:33 | CoCoLUS | wow :) |
| 14:10:40 | amiconn | The characters are prioritised, so a more critical char or one with an especially ugly replacement can get priority |
| 14:11:19 | preglow | CoCoLUS: yeah, i saw, i'm just waiting for my box to be slashdoted :P |
| 14:18:21 | preglow | oh well, i prefer non-charcell based design |

| 14:19:20 | amiconn | lseek() simply returns with -1 and doesn't do what it should |
| 14:19:31 | preglow | hahah |
| 14:19:38 | preglow | i saw you commited a NOCYGWIN patch |
| 14:19:41 | preglow | what did that do? |
| 14:20:03 | amiconn | It removed the NOCYGWIN define for the X11 simulator |
| 14:22:21 | preglow | well, yes, but what does that do? :P |
| 14:23:21 | amiconn | The NOCYGWIN define is, together with the -mno-cygwin machine option, a hint for the cygwin gcc to generate code that can run without cygwin1.dll |
| 14:24:00 | amiconn | It generates a little bit larger binaries that are a bit less posix compatible. |
| 14:24:22 | amiconn | This makes no sense for the X11 simulator on cygwin, because X11 needs the cygwin X11 server anyway |

| 15:37:11 | amiconn | For unix, is there a way to get extended error information from the system? I.e. when lseek() fails, can I get the cause for this somehow? |

| 18:03:38 | HCl | dynarec is working |
| 18:03:42 | HCl | you can help out if you like :P |
| 18:03:45 | HCl | at the moment |
| 18:03:56 | HCl | i'm puzzled to why the code gcc generates would actually be the same |
| 18:04:14 | HCl | http://titania.student.utwente.nl/flagstuff |
| 18:04:25 | HCl | if anyone can explain that to me, i'll be able to continue with dynarec |
| 18:05:06 | CoCoLUS | seems actually everyone here is having his fair share of wonders with gcc :P |
| 18:05:30 | HCl | well, i'm trying to use gcc to create fairly tight and optimized code in the dynarec |
| 18:05:33 | HCl | but. |
| 18:05:42 | HCl | at the moment i don't see why gcc's assembly output would work at all. |
| 18:05:56 | HCl | and while i don't, i'm not gonna bluntly type it over and feed it into dynarec |
| 18:08:26 | preglow | what's wrong with it? |
| 18:08:40 | HCl | preglow: i don't see how that assembly is equivalent with the code above it... |
| 18:08:46 | preglow | gimme a sec |
| 18:08:48 | preglow | but btw |
| 18:08:52 | HCl | especiall the andil #129,%d3 |
| 18:08:55 | preglow | gcc doesn't always produce optimal code for the coldfire |
| 18:08:58 | HCl | which is supposed to be the flags. |
| 18:09:05 | HCl | thats 0x81 |
| 18:09:09 | preglow | i've caught it doing some pretty stupid stuff |
| 18:09:12 | HCl | first of all, bit 1 of the flags is not used at all |
| 18:09:28 | preglow | like loading an immediate into a register before using it to compare with an address register |
| 18:09:31 | HCl | so that would limit it to only be able to set the zero flag |
| 18:09:39 | HCl | which must be wrong. |
| 18:09:47 | HCl | since it needs to be able to set carry |
| 18:09:56 | HCl | and halfcarry |
| 18:10:02 | HCl | a=(c) ? 0 : 0x80 | |
| 18:10:03 | HCl | (0x20 & (b ^ b ^ c) << 1)) | |
| 18:10:03 | HCl | ((2*b)&0x10)>>4); |
| 18:10:15 | HCl | first line = zero flag, second line = halfcarry, last = carry |
| 18:10:53 | HCl | and i seriously don't see that if you andi the flag register with 0x81 |
| 18:10:59 | HCl | how you possibly could get a correct result |
| 18:11:09 | HCl | i must be missing something vital |
| 18:11:37 | preglow | i'd do this by hand, where i you |
| 18:11:54 | HCl | i was doing that.. but it was getting complicated and very inefficient... |
| 18:11:59 | preglow | as i said, it does not seem that gcc produces optimal code for coldfire |
| 18:12:30 | preglow | well, studying optimized compiler output is complicated as well |

| 18:17:21 | preglow | i use it all the time |
| 18:18:38 | preglow | perhaps you use another flag that doesn't go well with it |
| 18:19:29 | preglow | what does halfcarry flag do? |
| 18:19:56 | HCl | i'm not even sure about that |
| 18:20:03 | HCl | i *believe* its a carry flag of the lower 4 bits |
| 18:20:10 | preglow | hah |
| 18:20:12 | preglow | ahh <- |
| 18:20:15 | preglow | makes sense |
| 18:21:37 | muesli- | what is the idea for buffering? i mean, does rockbox buffers as long as there is free memory or does it care about those 32mb ram-module? i am thinking about exchanging the ram-module with a bigger one |
| 18:22:10 | preglow | HCl: but simple enough, reading compiler optimized code is a nightmare, why don't you just try it out on the player? |
| 18:23:24 | HCl | ok |
| 18:23:30 | HCl | i think i got something more useful |
| 18:23:36 | HCl | 0xA1 |
| 18:24:00 | preglow | b ^ b ^ c ? |
| 18:24:13 | preglow | isn't b^b zero ? |
| 18:24:14 | HCl | that looks correct aside from the carry still being broken |
| 18:24:21 | HCl | at least the halfcarry could work in theory now |
| 18:24:29 | HCl | since its not anding them away |
| 18:25:01 | HCl | afk food |
| 18:26:15 | XShocK | preglow: b^b is zero. and zero^c is c |
| 18:26:26 | preglow | yes |
| 18:26:45 | preglow | just found it relatively pointless to write b ^ b ^ c, heh |
| 18:26:57 | XShocK | mmm.. yes. :) |

| 18:34:12 | XShocK | is server rockbox.org down? |

| 19:58:11 | Zagor | true, but some of the changes affect even released devices |

| 20:06:34 | preglow | you bet |
| 20:06:52 | Sucka | and this is the first step towards achieving that |
| 20:07:52 | Zagor | it's a pretty boring joke. people will just think we were hacked. |
| 20:08:31 | preglow | yes, i'm quite fed up with it myself |
| 20:08:50 | Sucka | its not about that Zagor, its about the sheer look of shock on their little faces |
| 20:09:27 | preglow | repayment for all the regirgitated jokes they've unleashed on the world |
| 20:09:41 | Zagor | ah, the look you never see on the faces you never see. yeah, that'd be fun... ;) |

| 20:51:47 | thread | intriguing |
| 20:52:08 | thread | don't want to break my player, though |
| 20:52:15 | thread | can I listen to music and play game boy at the same time? |
| 20:52:20 | nobby | nope |
| 20:52:29 | nobby | it wont play music on an irver yet |
| 20:52:38 | thread | o |
| 20:52:40 | nobby | you can still use the old firmware by rebooting it |
| 20:52:53 | thread | how do I run the rockbox firmware? |
| 20:53:06 | nobby | read the wiki |
| 20:53:13 | thread | i m... |
| 20:53:21 | nobby | http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IriverBoot |
| 20:54:31 | thread | If you want to start the original firmware, hold the record button when starting. |
| 20:54:34 | thread | ah.. |
| 20:54:47 | thread | is there much risk of rendering my player useless? |
| 20:54:56 | preglow | not much, but some |
| 20:55:14 | preglow | there's always risk involved in flashing, even when flashing the original firmware |
| 20:55:27 | HCl | i can put a working rockboy up.. but give me some time.. |
| 20:55:37 | nobby | thanks HCl |
| 20:55:58 | HCl | preglow: i don't suppose you still have a working rockboy somewhere? it'd save me trouble |
| 20:56:13 | * | HCl guesses he can just disable the dynarec part to get it back to work.. |
| 20:56:17 | preglow | HCl: i'm sorry, but no |
| 20:56:20 | HCl | kay. |
| 20:57:07 | HCl | well, i just added the add a,a instruction, gonna go home first, then i'll compile a working version for the slashdot people. |
| 20:57:30 | nobby | wanna do a quick compile for me first? ;) |
| 20:57:33 | HCl | (seems an easy instruction, but the flags make it annoying) |
| 20:57:40 | HCl | no, sorry. i'll be back in 15 min or so. |
| 20:57:43 | nobby | ok |
| 20:57:45 | HCl | then i'll do the compile |

| 21:21:17 | muesli- | what do i do with this fw? |
| 21:21:24 | willkill4food | hello everyone |
| 21:21:50 | willkill4food | i just found out about this site from slashdot, and im probably not alone in that |
| 21:22:03 | jyp | noooooooo |
| 21:22:08 | jyp | ;p |
| 21:22:19 | * | jyp shuts off |
| 21:22:21 | willkill4food | but i have an archos multimedia jukebox, and I was wondering if anyone had one also and if they got any of the rockbox firmware to work on it? |
| 21:22:37 | jyp | gmini400 ? |
| 21:23:26 | willkill4food | http://archos.com/download/pictures/picts/archos_jbm_20.png |
| 21:23:41 | willkill4food | little bit of a big pic, but thats what I have |
| 21:23:57 | lImbus | the archos multimedia jukeboxes are based on a totally different hardware. no rockbox for that :-/ |
| 21:24:26 | preglow | master designers the archos people are not |
| 21:24:38 | lImbus | eheh |
| 21:24:56 | lImbus | at least it can be hacked :-) |
| 21:26:34 | willkill4food | are they really that different? |
| 21:26:49 | lImbus | dunno |
| 21:27:09 | lImbus | I think, because the existing archos-jukebox and recorder have a far to slow processor |
| 21:27:17 | lImbus | I think so... |
| 21:28:05 | jyp | open it up & tell us ;) |
| 21:28:06 | preglow | i think i've seen it mentioned they're completely different inside, yes |
| 21:28:27 | lImbus | If you are handy with electronics, open the box, make some pictures (or scans) of the hardware, start identifying the components, and start a rockbox-port to these devices |
| 21:28:30 | willkill4food | i already did open it up |
| 21:28:38 | willkill4food | trying to fix the headphone port |
| 21:28:41 | jyp | so, what's the cpu? |
| 21:28:54 | willkill4food | but the headphone port is soddered to the base if i remember right |
| 21:28:57 | willkill4food | i didnt check the cpu |
| 21:29:03 | willkill4food | the HD was in the way if I remember right |
| 21:39:24 | willkill4food | i think my jukebox is more or less like the recorder v2 and the fm recorder because im pretty sure they are about the same thing, but i cant find documentation of those two on the archos site very well |
| 21:40:37 | lImbus | the fm recorder and recorder v2 have a 12 MHz-Cpu. No way of doing anything of the things your mm-jukemox does |
| 21:40:56 | lImbus | s/jukemox/jukebox |
| 21:41:06 | willkill4food | well it probably does have a faster cpu and it does have a 16mb buffer |
| 21:41:42 | willkill4food | im gonna go try to figure it out, ill be back when i know what exactly is special about my jbm |
| 21:42:04 | lImbus | most probably it has a cpu that is able to do the decoding in software |
| 21:42:11 | einhirn | (isn't 16Mb more than sh1 can do?) |
| 21:42:25 | lImbus | no idea |
| 21:42:45 | einhirn | I think I read so when browsing about 8Mb Patch... |
| 21:42:55 | einhirn | err... Hack... ;) |
| 21:43:25 | lImbus | ^^ |
| 21:47:58 | XShocK | i will be back in 1 hour. |
| 21:49:35 | | Part hubble |
| 21:50:39 | lImbus | hehe@ jyp: couple of fixes for 16 bits archs |
| 21:51:22 | lImbus | A friend of mine called my archos a "debris" the other day. He has a iPod Mini and tried to get me jealous for the size and weight |
| 21:52:03 | preglow | hahaha |
| 21:52:08 | preglow | jealous of an ipod |
| 21:52:36 | lImbus | well. It's light, yes. period ;-) |
| 21:54:49 | Sucka | i hate ipod minis |
| 21:54:52 | Sucka | theyre hard to use |
| 21:54:56 | fuzzie | the ipod minis are ugly. :P |
| 21:54:58 | Sucka | normal ipods are quite nice |
| 21:55:11 | Sucka | but i prefer my iriver |
| 21:55:32 | Sucka | especially as i use it in-car mostly anyway |
| 21:55:37 | lImbus | I don't like the shiny back of an iPod. It will always have fingerprints and so on |
| 21:55:45 | Sucka | idd |
| 21:56:06 | Sucka | the 4g interface is quite cunning though |
| 21:56:22 | lImbus | it looks great, for a moment. then it get's dirty and unhandy |
| 21:56:46 | fuzzie | it's not that hard to run a cloth over it |
| 21:56:59 | Sucka | that happens with everythign though lImbus |
| 21:57:00 | fuzzie | the ipod is probably at the top of my list of hw music devices to buy atm |
| 21:57:10 | fuzzie | i'm in here because i'm hoping to keep track of whether the iriver might become viable |
| 21:57:22 | fuzzie | (most of my music is in AAC, but i'm not terribly wanting to buy something which won't do vorbis) |
| 21:57:35 | lImbus | hehe |
| 21:57:47 | lImbus | iPodLinux.org |
| 21:58:12 | fuzzie | .. doesn't support any of the new ipods anyway :) |
| 21:58:27 | lImbus | jo |
| 21:59:39 | fuzzie | and the faq doesn't much make me confident about being actually able to play music, either |
