01:04:48HClmy thought exactly
01:04:48Soul_Eaterif*
01:04:56Strathtoo much overhead if you are not using it
01:04:59HClsoul, it can be done, there's just not any point in it.
01:05:16Bagderof course it can, all info is already gathered
01:05:35Bagderits just a matter of writing the drivers for linux instead of rockbox
01:05:52condor9I have a rockbox/rombox flashing question ... can anyone help?
01:06:06*Bagder goes to bed
01:06:08Patr3ckdamn, my "open with" patch was not really helpfull

01:22:00amiconncondor9: You need a full install with everything in the right place. rockbox_flash.rock is a viewer, so it goes into /.rockbox/viewers instead of /.rockbox/rocks, and you need viewers.config in /.rockbox
01:22:33amiconnThe easiest way if you build your self is to 'make zip' after 'make', then unzip the archive to the root of your archos
01:23:32condor9amiconn: Yeah, I did that ... when I make zip it doesn't copy any of the rocks to the zip file.

01:24:03condor9amiconn: btw, in case you didn't see my previous post ... your suggestion for altering the partition table worked. thank you.
01:24:19amiconnIt should... if it doesn't, I have no idea why though
01:24:38amiconnSaw that; nice that it works for you now :)
01:25:07condor9amiconn: ok, so rockbox_flash.rock goes into viewers ... do I need to configure viewers.conf?
01:25:11condor9conf=config
01:26:25condor9My viewers.config is empty.
01:26:59amiconnIf it's not already there, you can copy the source viewers.config verbatim. viewers.config is processed while 'make zip', but this is only to remove unneeded entries
01:27:47condor9Ahh... from apps/plugins
01:27:58condor9Ok, thanks. I'll try that.
01:28:57condor9If it's a .rock why doesn't it go in rocks? Just curious.
01:29:13coobdon't put all your rocks in one basket!
01:29:16*coob not funny :/
01:29:24condor9:)
01:29:27HCl :p
01:29:29amiconnThere are 2 types of rocks: ordinary rocks and viewers
01:29:51amiconnviewers take a parameter, which is the file they should act on
01:29:59Bonkerswell you've certainly simplified geology quite a bit
01:30:13amiconn;)
01:30:15coobare viewers permiable?

01:34:59Soul_Eateris scandisk on XP?
01:35:28amiconnI'm not even able to improve on the realtime behaviour. It doesn't seem to like signals.
01:36:04amiconnHowever, I found a patch in the tracker that uses a different approach, using a separate thread to update the tick counter
01:36:15HClah..
01:36:17amiconnSoul_Eater: chkdsk
01:36:53amiconn(or the gui disk checker from the context menu -> drive properties)
01:39:05Soul_Eaterand to run a chkdsk on the iriver its chkdsk e:\ ?
01:41:01Patr3ckhow many plugins are shown in open with (not including duplicates)?

02:27:51XShocKhehe... ATA DMA works.. :)
02:27:52amiconnI'm interested in the following things: (1) Does it produce proper seconds? That's easily tested with the codec test plugins; they update the speed display once per second. (2) Does it run stable, even with lcd activity? Easiest is to go to the scroll speed settings, set it to 15 and leave the example scrolling for a while (some minutes)
02:27:59HClXShocK: what?where?
02:28:19XShocKat least a very basic one. i changed drivers/ata.c so that it use DMA.

09:45:10LinusNsaw that
09:45:19preglowdidn't think disk write consumed that much
09:45:30LinusNi knew the disk writes would skew the results, but not to that extent
09:45:43preglowwell, endian swapping and disk writes
09:45:49preglowneither are necessary for our use
09:46:00Rickenlighten me, is 200% a good or bad thing?
09:46:05preglowgood, indeed

09:48:29Rickmarkun should be back today
09:48:33preglowhe mentioned trying to swap the mdct for a fft with post/pre processing
09:49:01LinusNhow large is the mdct there?
09:49:07preglowthe whole frame
09:49:13preglowanything from 128 to 4096
09:49:30LinusN128 sound small for an fft
09:49:32preglowmp3 has very small mdcts, since it's employed after subband decomposition
09:49:32LinusNsounds
09:49:38preglowit's not, really
09:49:54preglowit's perhaps the smallest pretty common size
09:50:08LinusNok
09:50:09*HCl rubs a bag of sand out of his eyes and yawns
09:50:18preglowthat's the smallest imdct block, the fft size will be half the block size
09:52:06LinusNi wonder why the tremor codec doesn't use fft in that case
09:52:50preglowthey've stated that the goal of tremor is more to be a reference than the tightest piece of code imaginable
09:53:01LinusNfair enough
09:53:06preglowand that particular piece is very easily exchanged by yourself
09:53:46preglowbut yes, imdct is much more important performance wise in vorbis
09:53:53preglowthan in mp3
09:53:59LinusNyeaa
09:54:13preglowahh, and yes, i got mpegdec working
09:54:20preglowit's not realtime on a 90 mhz coldfire, that's for sure
09:54:20LinusNheard it was noisy
09:54:49preglowyes, there was over eight bits worth of difference between that and a better mp3 decoder
09:54:57LinusNwow
09:54:58preglowbut a difference isn't the best way of comparing
09:56:30LinusNso we should stick to libmad for the time being
09:56:57preglowwell, it's not necessarily bad, i thought i'd check it out a bit now
09:57:04preglowperhaps commit it if someone wants to try it out
09:57:16preglowi wont have time to do much rockbox this week

11:02:04preglowdoes the code cache do prefetches?
11:04:30LinusNit fills a whole line
11:05:10LinusN16 bytes/line
11:05:35preglowyes, but only when a miss is detected, yes?
11:05:51LinusNof course, that's what the cache is for
11:06:05preglowyes, but i was wondering if it prefetched
11:06:21LinusNit always fills a complete line
11:06:45preglowi was just thinking it wouldn't enhance sequantial code that much
11:07:14LinusNit won't help much, no
11:07:28LinusNall it helps you with is to fetch in bursts
11:07:29preglowi'd like to commit imdct_l code, but it's entirely sequantial
11:07:51LinusNit should be in iram then
11:08:14preglowi was also thinking of optimizing the other imdct_l instead, but there's not much emac magic to be done there
11:08:24preglowand i think the compiler makes better code than me
11:09:39preglowplugins use the main thread stack, yes?
11:09:47LinusNthe cache helps a little on unrolled code, since the instruction fetches are done in bursts
11:09:51LinusNpreglow: yes
11:10:14preglowjust a pointer for the future, codec plugin stack really should be in iram
11:10:32LinusNyeah
11:10:32preglowthey construct a lot of temp arrays that are accessed a lot
11:10:57*HCl yawns
11:11:03preglowwe just need to control stack usage vigourosly to keep its size down
11:11:04amiconnhi
11:11:10HClgmorning.
11:11:11LinusNhi amiconn
11:11:14*HCl makes food
11:11:48preglowLinusN: yes, it helps, but would be better to have something loop based
11:11:58LinusNabsolutely
11:12:27amiconnI have a patch ready that adds proper realtime behaviour to the x11 sim (timer tick, sleep). I'd prefer some people to test it on various flavours of unix (Linux, BSD, OS X) before committing.
11:13:04amiconnamiconn.dyndns.org/x11rt.patch">http://amiconn.dyndns.org/x11rt.patch
11:13:57LinusNamiconn: nice, will try it at home if i remember to do it
11:14:47amiconn2 tests I'm especially interested in: (1) Does it run realtime? (run the stopwatch plugin) (2) Does it run stable, even with heavy display activity? (got to the scroll speed settings, set it to 15 and let the example scroll for some minutes)
11:15:35preglowamiconn: i'll give it a go
11:15:55LinusNamiconn: have you tried to run it over the net?
11:16:01amiconn?
11:16:08LinusNremote
11:16:14amiconnNope, how?
11:16:23amiconnI'm not that much in x11
11:16:26preglowthat's what i'm doing
11:16:44LinusNpreglow: good, then we'll get a good benchmark
11:16:49amiconnAdditionally, I did not yet change anything in the lcd routines
11:17:03preglowthe box is one meter from me, but it's still remote :)
11:17:27HClhehe.
11:17:51amiconnit's only an additional thread that keeps track of time and updating current_tick, and sleep using select() instead of poll()
11:18:33amiconnUsing poll() isn't realtime because it does not always sleep the whole time, it gets interrupted by other signals too
11:22:27Bagderselect() is the same
11:22:38Bagderyou need to loop when EINTR
11:22:58preglowstopwatch seems decent
11:23:00Bagderwhen errno is EINTR
11:23:08amiconnIt's not if you use select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, &tv);
11:23:33preglowstopwatch is accurate as far as i can see
11:23:44Bagderamiconn: I think you're wrong
11:23:56amiconnHmm, need to check again then
11:24:26preglowamiconn: the 'up' key doesn't work some times
11:24:49amiconnpreglow: Yeah... I did not yet work on the button handling.
11:24:55amiconn...that's next
11:25:00preglowok, as long as you know of it
11:25:09preglowscrolling seems fine as well
11:25:13amiconnMy patch doesn't change that
11:27:37preglowamiconn: if you've got access to a linux box, running x remote isn't muc harder than setting the DISPLAY variable on the box, and adding an ip in your cygwins x
11:28:13Bagderusing ssh, you don't even need to do that manually
11:28:21preglowyup, correct
11:28:27preglowi just didn't bother with ssh locally
11:29:30Bagderand for the record, I could easily provide a linux login for this purpose in case some would like it
11:29:37Bagdernow, food
11:30:35preglowyes, i would be glad to provide a login as well, as long as no warez are involved :P
11:31:32preglowamiconn: scrolling has been running for over five minutes, no change in behaviour
11:31:52amiconnpreglow: Nice :)
11:32:39amiconnI'll check again whether the sleep() implementation using select() works correct before committing
11:33:58preglowthere the entire thing hung
11:34:04preglowi thing that's the button handler, though
11:34:07preglowthink, even
11:34:21preglowyes, most definitely, after banging the keypad, it unfroze

12:31:17HClget an arm emulator and knock yourself out
12:31:20HClo.o
12:31:22Bagderarm asm is cool
12:31:22preglowhaha
12:31:24preglowit's not the same
12:31:36preglowit seems very powerful, and at the same time they say it's risc
12:31:38*HCl has a pda that runs linux and is a strongarm..
12:32:00preglowBagder: is there anything bad to say about the arm architecture?
12:32:07Bagderyes
12:32:15Bagderthey have things patentet
12:32:20preglowexcellent...
12:32:21Bagderand hunt clone makers
12:32:35preglowso everyone has to license it?
12:32:38Bagderyes
12:32:50Bagderapparently, arm is also pretty expensive compared to competitors

12:37:27marvbhi guys, I just noticed something when starting rockbox
12:37:53marvba loud sound was coming through the headphones

12:38:27HClon what hardware?
12:38:40marvbHCl: sorry, iriver
12:38:47ashridahhm. symptom of uninitialised hardware?
12:39:12marvbusing the bootloader on the wiki, and the bleeding edge this morning
12:40:00marvbI do not know if this is supposed to happen, as I haven't had the headphones plugged when using rockbox.
12:40:17preglowwell, sound hardware is not supposed to work
12:40:36marvbpreglow: I know, that's why I freaked out ;)
12:40:41preglowit'll get fixed when sound support is in cvs

12:46:26HClnot writing to disk made it go at 200%

12:47:02Heidelwegbtw. does that mean, not writing to the disc gives all other codec also double speed?

12:48:13preglowsure enough
12:48:21preglowit was never intended to write anyway
12:49:28ripnetuk_how hard would it be to 'hack' the mpa2wav to dump its output the the dac? is it just a case of dumping it to ram and telling the dma controller to copy it to the dac?
12:49:43HCli honestly don't know.
12:49:52LinusNripnetuk_: for what reason?
12:50:11ripnetuk_just for fun :) to hear it make noises before the complete sound api is done
12:52:07Patr3ckLinusN: The TIMER1 code you gave me worked beautifully

12:55:55LinusNPatr3ck: the autovector uses different vectors for each interrupt level
12:56:53Patr3ckLinusN: OK, I see
13:00
13:00:48LinusNpreglow: FYI, it isn't the disk writing that takes all the CPU, it's the dithering
13:00:49preglowLinusN: well, this is most certainly interesting
13:01:08preglowLinusN: i've got that file running at 170% realtime
13:01:33LinusNyes, because you removed the dithering as well as the disk writing
13:01:45preglowyes, i commented out the whole block
13:02:22preglowdithering is quite unnecessary at 16 bit, imho
13:02:33LinusNdo you have uncommitted optimizations?
13:02:36preglowLinusN: yes

13:02:46LinusNi get 150% without dithering
13:03:01preglowwell, 150*1.15 = 172%
13:03:08preglowmy opt gave about 15% last time as well
13:03:12LinusNi think dithering might make a difference
13:03:28preglowyes, of course, depends on several factors
13:03:33preglowmy hearing can't pick it up

14:14:10LearYou can select 3.4.1 as an experimental option... (You need to cycle the "new" column and explicitly select "bin" though.

14:15:32ashridahaah. it's experimental? i'll leave it where it is then
14:16:24ashridahi put together a cygwin environment + instructions for a bunch of my mates at uni, so they could get a unix-alike build environment for one of the assignments we have to do for a programming subject. it's close enough to the solaris machine (which is gcc 3.4) that they'll be able to get their work done a lot faster

18:29:21amiconnThat's of great value for porting rockbox to gmini
18:29:31Tomas2amiconn? you know much about the simulators?
18:29:52Tomas2My iRiver simulator can't open the plugin's browser...
18:29:55amiconnWell, I'd say quite a bit
18:30:21amiconnDid you 'make install' after 'make'?
18:30:30Tomas2yes..
18:30:43amiconnWindows or Linux?
18:30:48Tomas2linux
18:30:57amiconn:(
18:31:15amiconnI'm afraid I can't help that much with Linux, running windows only...
18:31:40Tomas2ok.. I have windows too.. but haven't tried to build it there jet..
18:31:48amiconnDid you check the dir structure?
18:31:51Tomas2what's the simplest way? visual studio?
18:32:19amiconnI think the vs build is completely broken now, and I have no way to fix it (i.e. no visual studio)
18:32:28Tomas2other way?
18:32:40amiconnI'm using cygwin for everything rockbox related
18:32:57Tomas2lol... that's almost linux
18:32:59Rickmorning guys
18:33:08Bonkersinnocent question, if you're using cygwin, why can't the linux and windows simulator be identical?
18:33:14amiconnCompiling for target(s) (sh1 in my case), and both win32 and x11 simulators
18:34:26amiconnBonkers: The native win32 simulator can't run on linux for obvious reasons, and this one is preferred on windows. It's more compatible, and if you only want that one, you need a way smaller cygwin installation (no x11 needed)
18:35:14Tomas2oh.. in cygwin my make complains...
18:35:24amiconnThen, Tomas2 says cygwin is *almost* Linux - yes, but only *almost*

18:37:56Tomas2damn... cygwin is much slower than the real linux :)
18:38:07***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
18:38:30amiconnReally? Some other guys also told me, but then I have no comparison.
18:39:07Tomas2yeah.. This pc is a Athlon XP 3200+ and the make almost takes twice the time it takes on my simple celeron 700 laptop...
18:39:13Tomas2but the laptop is running native linux
18:39:19amiconnHmm.
18:39:26BonkersTomas2: the first time I tried cygwin, before I'd touched linux, it was probably on a 486 33 MHz, I thoguht all configure scripts took like 45 minutes
18:39:38amiconnPentium M 1.5 GHz laptop here
18:39:51Tomas2yeah, my laptop is a little old...
18:40:00Tomas2Celeron 700, 512 mb mem...
18:40:14Tomas2my real computer is much faster normally... 3200+ with 1024 mb mem...
18:40:37amiconnI don't want to fiddle with Linux on that, 'cause windows is running pretty stable and does everyting I need (with the help of cygwin).
18:41:05Tomas2yeah... I use windows XP on this pc for games and my company program's...
18:41:15Bonkersany idea how the speed of colinux compares to cygwin?
18:41:30Tomas2native linux is just really much faster... whatever version u use...
18:41:44amiconnI tried to fiddle with Linux several times, but I simply don't have the time to switch to Linux. It takes ages to get a Linux environment to the stage where it is actually usable...
18:42:03Tomas2install some simple distro? like mandrake of fedora?
18:42:08Bonkersamiconn: not lately, fedora core, ubuntu, knoppix, you can have a system up and running faster than the windows install takes
18:42:19Tomas2I used that when I wasn't as linux experienced as I am now...
18:42:19Bonkersubuntu installed completely in like 10 minutes or something
18:42:33Bonkersknoppix boots off a CD in like 3 minutes and is fully usable
18:42:39amiconnYeah, up and running *basically*, but until all hardware works, it can take ages...
18:42:52Bonkersthey all autodetect hardware now
18:42:59Tomas2well.. my laptop worked with fedora just from setup
18:43:01amiconn... and for some hardware I tried to get running under linux, I failed completely
18:43:03BonkersI think knoppix picks up every piece of software in my computer
18:43:09Tomas2and when I did LFS it was easy as hell...
18:43:15Tomas2just have to know your hardware
18:43:29BonkersI can stick knoppix in my laptop at school with my wireless card plugged in, in 2 minutes I'm already on the internet with sound at startup
18:43:34Bonkersno configuration at all
18:43:46preglowknoppix is pretty leet
18:44:06Tomas2yeah, because it's build on debian...
18:44:19Bonkersbut it's really the hardware autodetection that makes it so cool
18:44:19amiconnWell, I actually didn't try the distros you mention; but I tried several SuSEs, and debian (the latter on Amiga hardware though)
18:44:22Tomas2I use debian for my server and firewall too...
18:44:29Rickamiconn: currently I use VMWare for my rockbox dev enviornment
18:44:41Tomas2amiconn: debian is a little more difficult
18:44:44Bonkersya, debian on my server/firewall too
18:44:45preglowTomas2: do i detect a debian zealot here? :P
18:44:52Tomas2a little ;)
18:44:55preglowhaha
18:44:56preglowdebian is ok
18:45:02Tomas2yeah, for servers...
18:45:02preglowas long as you don't run stable
18:45:11Bonkershah, I'm running stable on my server
18:45:13Tomas2I run stable with backports...
18:45:13amiconnSuSE did fails for several hardware items, and I didn't even manage to get x11 running in debian
18:45:15preglowi can't stand using five years old software
18:45:26Tomas2then use stable + backports?
18:45:38preglowonly fixes are backported
18:45:38Tomas2I installed new apache, php, mysql and postfix from backports
18:45:38preglownot features
18:45:43BonkersI had like a 400 day uptime with that thing, and it was an old 266MHz K6-2

18:46:00preglowi don't want to jump through hoops
18:46:04preglowi've got anice server anyway
18:46:09preglowand i'm not about to spend time on it
18:46:11Tomas2put it in /etc/sources.list
18:46:17Tomas2and you can install all new things you want :)
18:46:19preglowyes, i know
18:46:26preglowi'm using apt on my desktop right now
18:46:34preglowbut i'll not touch my server until it stops working
18:46:39Tomas2I don't use debian as a desktop..
18:46:42Tomas2that's just to old...
18:46:49Tomas2old KDE and thinks aren't usable...
18:46:50preglowuse unstable
18:46:56preglowi use ubuntu right now
18:46:57amiconnWe also considered using a Linux file server at work some time ago, but decided against it. User administration is a nightmare compared to a windows domain, imho.
18:46:59preglowruns like a charm
18:47:02Tomas2yeah... I just use LFS now on my laptop
18:47:14preglowamiconn: i wouldn't call it a nightmare
18:47:22preglowamiconn: you need to get used to it, then it's pretty smooth
18:47:29preglowlike everything else
18:47:36preglowless intuitive, perhaps
18:47:48amiconnNo, simply much moire work for less effect
18:47:52Bonkersdoesn't samba support full active directory stuff by now?
18:47:59Tomas2yeah version 3
18:48:00preglowamiconn: what exactly are we talking about?
18:48:18preglowfile servers aren't very hard to set up or admin
18:48:22amiconnI didn't have a look at the latest samba, but back then samba even needed to enter the password a second time.
18:48:35amiconnWindows 2000 with active directory was available by then
18:48:38preglowsamba works incredibly smooth these days
18:48:43Bonkersback when? samba has been able to join a domain fork 5 years at least
18:48:57Tomas2We use several linux fileservers at work...
18:48:59Bonkerssamba could join an nt4 domain before 2000 ad existed
18:49:05Tomas2All integrated in windows 2000 domain
18:49:06amiconnYeah... to join, but not to be an ad domain controller
18:49:18Tomas2It can controll a NT 4 domain
18:49:21Bonkersyou don't need to be a domain controller to share files without requiring a password a second time
18:49:22Tomas2and join a 2000 domain
18:49:43preglowbut of course, win2k is going to be smoother for smb stuff

18:50:55Tomas2just login to a w2k workstation and my home drive is mounted automatically... without relogin..
18:50:55amiconnHmm, actually I think samba is slow as hell, but that's not samba's fault. The SMB protocol is simply inefficient
18:50:57preglowwindows remembers my passwords for me
18:51:10preglowsmb isn't very elegant, no
18:51:13preglowbut it works
18:51:16Tomas2yeah... SMB is slow.. compared to http or ftp..
18:51:21amiconnTomas2: Not to login twice, but to tell samba the password again.
18:51:32Tomas2no.. don't have to type a password at all
18:51:34amiconn...when creating the user, that is
18:51:39Tomas2ooooh
18:51:48Tomas2you have to change some domain settings for that
18:51:56Tomas2and make samba replicate users from windows
18:52:08Tomas2or just use domain auth and don't make linux users at all
18:52:18preglowwhich is what you of course do
18:52:18Tomas2it's possible with winbind...

18:54:17fuzziei can't speak for anything but filesharing, though.
18:54:19preglowit's not bs

18:58:22amiconnFor instance, I did not yet manage to get AVM Bluefritz (ISDN over bluetooth) running in SuSE 9.2. It is properly detected, and configured with yast, but it simply doesn't work until now.

19:11:01amiconn[IDC]Dragon: Yeah, we do, but there are 2 problems (imho)
19:11:52amiconn(1) We start monitoring *immediately* before the disk mount, but maybe the usb thread takes a while to catch this, and then the present usb connection. Meanwhile the mount might already be done...
19:13:11amiconn(2) The check for inserted mmc is unconditional, i.e. it always prompts for removal of the mmc when usb is about to be acknowledged. It should not prompt if the card is not yet initialised (and hence not yet in spi mode)
19:13:44amiconnThe question remains how reliable this info is...
19:14:08amiconnMaybe the problems is only (2) though
19:15:18amiconnHmm. Actually problem (1) is very likely too. There is no yield() between usb_start_monitoring() and the disk mount...

19:28:29HClthey're dumb. and annoying.
19:28:31HClso whats up?
19:28:52amiconn[IDC]Dragon: Then we would have to set it really early, in select_card just after checking for not initialised (line 170). This might break something, because the tCardInfo.initialized should only be set if the card was initialised successfully, i.e. reading and setting all parameters without errors
19:28:57preglowhunger's up
19:29:38amiconn[IDC]Dragon: That looks like another parameter is necessary... but then it would only be necessary for the MMC, not for the internal flash
19:29:48*Tomas2 is back
19:31:16amiconn[IDC]Dragon: Actually, setting it that early wouldn't work, because this flag is checked again later on in the same function

19:37:55Tomas2I'll check it on real linux this evening... maybe it really is an error :)
19:37:58amiconnCurrent cvs should compile almost cleanly (some warnings are there - the same as with linux)
19:39:41amiconn[IDC]Dragon: I just checked; a simple yield between usb_start_monitoring and the disk mount is not sufficient. Usb will only pickup the change in the next usb tick, then send an event to the usb queue, and then usb thread has the chance to pick it up when it's scheduled next
19:40:19[IDC]Dragonseveral yield()s ?
19:40:40[IDC]Dragonin the tick, sorry
19:40:49[IDC]Dragonthen this won'r work
19:41:06amiconnI think a sleep() for several ticks is needed. Even then this is ugly, because it's a race
19:41:38[IDC]Dragonthe HD models also have a problem here
19:41:55amiconnI don't think so
19:42:11[IDC]Dragonif the mount fails, they can only recover because the USB screen is called by the error handler

19:42:21amiconnThe race is there, yes, but it's not much of a problem
19:42:37amiconnAh, yes
19:43:10[IDC]Dragonit would be nicer if USB is done first, in general
19:43:28[IDC]Dragoninstead of through a backdoor
19:43:29amiconnImho a clean soultion would be to make usb_start_monitoring() guarantee that it catches the usb connection before returning

20:10:40 Quit BubbaJo (Read error: 145 (Connection timed out))
20:18:07preglowyes
20:19:37amiconnI checked again... Bagder was right, both poll() and select() may be interrupted by a signal.
20:20:25amiconnBut that usually doesn't happen, only when I tried implementing ticks with setitimer() it did
20:20:33amiconn(SIGALRM, obviously)
20:21:18Bagderhttp://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Interrupted-Primitives.html
20:21:33Bagderif you want the gory details
20:21:40amiconnSo using either poll() or select() is equivalent, only select() is a bit more difficult to set up (struct timeval instead of a simple parameter)
20:22:30amiconnOn the other hand, I need to deal with struct timeval for gettimeofday() anyway, and all this is defined in sys/time.h, while poll() needs an additional header (sys/poll.h)
20:23:03Bagder... not to mention that some systems don't have a good poll()
20:23:20amiconnHmm, but they may also not have a good select() then?
20:23:37Bagderwell, select() is much more portable than poll()
20:23:45Bagderpoll() is a newer invension
20:23:53preglowi never even heard of poll()
20:23:57amiconnOkay, so I'll keep my select() then.
20:24:15Bagderpoll() has no FD_SETSIZE issues
20:24:30Bagderwhich select() has
20:24:35Bagderbut for our case it doesn't matter
20:25:18amiconnThe remaining question is: is it necessary to check for premature return because of a signal?
20:25:35Bagderprobably not
20:25:45Bagderadd a comment about it and try without
20:26:11amiconnWell, I checked with a simple test plugin on cygwin, seems to run as intended

21:26:21preglowamiconn: well, they're not in production any more
21:26:59amiconnThere is quite a number of H120s, H320s and H340s, only the H140 seems to be rare
21:27:21amiconnThere is also a H-100 (10 GB). I wonder about the differences

21:27:37Stryke`i thought also a H-110 (perhaps 15 GB)

22:13:10amiconnIt is, and it should
22:13:17RickI stand corrected
22:13:32amiconn(if you build an iriver sim or any archos recorder sim)
22:13:34Tomas|laptophm... last CVS version again... make install done, but rockboy folder is empty
22:13:46amiconn?
22:14:14amiconnThe rockboy in /.rockbox folder is created *by* rockboy, and holds savegames etc
22:14:40Tomas|laptopI copied the rockboy.rock to the rocks folder
22:14:51Tomas|laptopthink that create's the folder
22:14:57Tomas|laptopbut it quits with a seg fault
22:15:13Tomas|laptopso I think just copying the file isn't the right way :)
22:15:15amiconnrockboy.rock should be in /.rockbox/viewers
22:15:33amiconn...and you then start it by *playing* a gameboy rom file
22:15:56amiconnIf it crashes by starting it directly, you have found a bug
22:16:11Tomas|laptopyeah, it seg faults when you start it without a rom
22:16:19amiconnIt should simply exit in that case, perhaps with an error message telling you what's wrong
22:16:40Tomas|laptopwell.. then I found a bug :)
22:17:04amiconnme fix...
22:17:09Tomas|laptopin simulator it crashes...
22:19:24amiconnWin32 sim too...
22:21:14Tomas|laptophow do I just "open" a rom file?
22:21:34Rickbrowse to the directory that it's in

22:22:46Rick?
22:22:53Rickit's the default thing that is started up
22:22:58Rickin the non-sim at least
22:22:59Rick;p
22:23:03Tomas|laptopno files listed there...
22:23:29amiconnYou need to set 'file view' to 'supported' or 'all'.
22:23:37amiconnIt's set to 'music' by default
22:23:39Tomas|laptopok
22:24:05amiconnYou may enter the menu either with the numpad '.", or insert (iriver sim)
22:24:45Tomas|laptopyeah, i don't have a numpad
22:24:50Tomas|laptopdid it with insert
22:24:54Tomas|laptopnow it shows the file

23:29:01Tomas2the optical in/out is usable for dvd players.. and professional recording studio's
23:29:08mirakok
23:29:16mirakthe boot time seems long
23:29:32Tomas2depends...
23:29:35mirakthe firmware is only in ram or on a hd partition ?
23:29:39mirakin pram
23:29:40Tomas2only ram
23:29:44mirakok
23:29:54Tomas2I don't use the database feature... and defragment it once in a while...
23:30:01mirakI guess some genius will be able to make it boot on hard drive
23:30:03Tomas2it starts in about 4 to 5 seconds

23:34:12mirakso virtually, iRiver can read any open source sound codec
23:34:20mirak?
23:34:21Tomas2well... no..
23:34:30mirakno ?
23:34:31Tomas2not FLAC and that kind of things
23:34:35mirakwhy ?

23:34:39HClyou mean not yet.
23:34:44DMJCheh
23:34:45Tomas2iRiver didn't implement it
23:34:46Bonkersflac already decodes in real-time
23:34:48mirakI mean in the futur
23:34:51Tomas2but when rockbox is ready
23:34:52Tomas2yes
23:34:57DMJCwhat is the iriver incapable of doing?

23:49:36LinusNradio recording on the H1x0 might not sound all too good, rumours say that the radio receiver picks up interference from the hard drive
23:49:41DeadManthat's funny
23:49:45Bagderah
23:49:49mirakBagder: ok thanks
23:49:59preglowLinusN: well, there's bound to be reason why they disabled it.
23:50:01BagderLinusN: how can they tell when it can't record from fm?
23:50:08preglowBagder: it can
23:50:10preglowBagder: iriver disabled it
23:50:13DeadManthose naughty BBC insiders. I wonder if there will be a witch hunt :)
23:50:18Bagder?
23:50:24HClwhat? radio recording? i thought it wasn't possible?
23:50:25Bagderthey can but they can't?
23:50:33preglowshould i have read the backlog or something? :V
23:51:26Tomas2LinusN: how far is the radio code? is it possible to control it?
23:51:29LinusNthe hardware allows recording from radio

23:51:45Soul_EaterGot an Rbx config question. IMO, the way it looks in the archos screenshots, it seems incredibly cramped, everything is kinda shoved together
23:51:47HCli wouldn't even care how bad it would sound
23:51:52LinusNTomas2: we already have drivers for the radio chip, all we need to do is port them to the iriver
23:51:57Soul_Eaterwill the iriver config options not be as cramped?
