00:30:19jbahey guys are there any plans to move to a more available embeded kernel in the future, or is that just too big a change?
00:30:28FebsSomeone in the forums posted a link to this ebay auction: http://cgi.ebay.de/Pimp-my-iPod-iPod-Video-iPod-Nano-iPod-Mini_W0QQitemZ120054643720QQihZ002QQcategoryZ8267QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
00:31:11petursomebody should inform ebay
00:31:31pixelmawhat does gpl allow on this?
00:32:00jbahey gpl doesn't say you can't sell software
00:32:08Kasperleif rockbox is GPLd, that's fine then
00:32:21Kasperleif they make the sourcecode available to the buyer
00:32:22jbaif they are distibuting source, they are doing nothing wrong, so long as those theme's and images aren't copyrighted of course
00:32:25 Quit petur ("sssssssssss---------PLOP!")
00:32:29Lars_Gpixelma: If he tells the user it's rockbox and/or offers a copy of the source or a link to the rockbox page, it's legal
00:32:45jbacaveat emptor
00:32:49Lars_Gjba: He needs to make source accessible not even include it.
00:32:54hachithey're selling a service anyways...
00:33:16FebsYes, but their is no attribution to Rockbox and no mention that the source is available.
00:33:23Febss/their/there
00:33:34jbaFebs, gpl doesn't have an attribution clause
00:33:38 Quit Arathis ("[rl_bot quit]")
00:33:41pixelmayeah that's my concern - the offer doesn't mention rockbox with one word though I don't know how they handle it after you bought their service
00:33:43jbajust the accessability of th esource
00:33:45bluebrotherare they allowed to sell it without announcing it's rockbox that gets installed?
00:34:01jbapeople do the same thing with OOo
00:34:06Lars_Gbluebrother: They are, afaik, if they make clear to the user the source is available
00:34:33FebsPerhaps amiconn or someone else fluent in German could ask some questions of the seller.
00:34:48bluebrotherhmm. Maybe I should "buy" that pimp stuff. Too bad I don't own an ipod (and know how to do myself ;-)
00:35:03Lars_GThe license also would allow him to change the name from rockbox to "pimpin-coolio-ipod" and change the name and all sources to match, as long as the sources are still gpl
00:35:20pixelmado those questions appear automatically on the site or has the selle some influence there?
00:35:32jbathe only issue is the the theme content, if it's creative commons license then he should be okay, otherwise, the creators of the theme content may have issue with it
00:35:39Lars_Gjba: I agree
00:35:39bluebrotherbut he need to announce the software to be gpl, does he?
00:35:44 Join XavierGr [0] (n=xavier@ppp152-68.adsl.forthnet.gr)
00:35:46Febsjba: I trust you're right about attribution; I haven't read the GPL recently.
00:36:00jbaFebs, actually it's been a long time for me also
00:36:23jbabut as i recall that's the reason for the main difference between MIT and BSD (attribution clause)
00:36:25Lars_Gjba: And it depends on the CC license. you could state he's gaining financially from the themes so if they're "noncommercial" he's breaking lic. also if they're "attribution" he needs to specify attrib somewhere
00:36:28 Quit lee-qid ("aufwiederbyebientotsayonara")
00:36:33jbaanhyhow, is rb even GPL'ed or is it some other clause
00:36:55jbas/clause/license, I never checked when i dl'ed the source
00:37:02bluebrotherhe announces to adjust the new pimp-software according to the wishes of the customer. Screams for trouble for the seller somewhat ;-)
00:37:58bluebrotherhehe, why not make a screenshot and put it to the official page ... "now Rockbox even gets sold"
00:38:01hachiI've gotten a couple notifications from the rockbox forums saying there are new posts for me to read on a thread, but when I go there I can't find anything new. Anyone know what the deal is with that?
00:38:24hachialso, why doesn't it just email me the post... it would be helpful in tracking what items are actually new
00:38:28Kasperlebluebrother: only the looks though
00:38:49Kasperlere: adjustment of rockbox
00:39:14 Quit PaulJam (".")
00:40:03bluebrotherhmm. I guess the most buyers will dislike the user interface ... as it's quite different from apple
00:40:27bluebrotherbtw, would be interesting to know if he sold the manual too. And if it's been changed.

00:43:12FebsUnder the GPL, distribution in executable form MUST be accompanied by a written offer, valid for three years, to provide the source.
00:43:21bluebrotherstrange. Has anybody looked at the feedback page of the seller?

00:47:57FebsGPL clearly requires that copyright info be disclosed to the recipient.
00:47:59Lars_GSo, when will you port Firefox to rockbox? I demand it!
00:48:53oboshortly after acrobat reader, but before doom3
00:49:32Febs"For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get thesource code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights."
00:49:58hachiyou actually can't tell if this guy will be legal or not... he doesn't need to disclose anything to anyone unless they are the winner of the auction
00:50:27Lars_GFebs: Yes that means he needs to tell the buyers the program is GPL but nothing else, not who originally made it or so.

00:51:07bluebrotherLars_G, but as Febs earlier said you must include an offer to hand out the sources
00:51:16Lars_Gcorrect
00:51:33pixelmahmm no... it seems that the last two feedbacks are just too old
00:51:47bluebrotherbut I assume he doesn't ship any "hints" sheet
00:51:48Lars_GBut like hachi says, that applies to the customer, the one receiving the install and program
00:52:20bluebrothertoo old feedbacks? I thought ebay doesn't delete the feedback points
00:52:27Lars_GThe only way would be purchasing from him. to have his data and see if he offers it.
00:52:43FebsAnd to distribute the source, you must include "an appropriate copyright notice." But it doesn't appear that the copyright notice needs to be distributed with the executable.
00:52:50Lars_Gcorrect, very old negative feedback is still counted. It's very odd in this case that it's not counted.
00:53:09pixelmabluebrother: I actually don't know - it was just a guess
00:53:11bluebrotherit's counted as per the sum but not for the percentage value
00:53:16 Quit bawb2 (Remote closed the connection)
00:53:26Lars_GFebs: No, but it's the distribution of the binary that triggers that requirement. And you're not forced by the gpl to distribute.
00:53:49Lars_GFebs: Also by the GPL he would be entitled to charge as much for the binary for the distribution of the source.
00:54:22bluebrothersomeone should tell that netzwelt.de guy to buy from him :D
00:54:35hachiI don't know german, or whatever lang it was... but it looked like he was selling a service, not the binary
00:54:38 Quit z0de ("\o/ my neck")
00:54:50pixelmahaha
00:55:15Lars_Ghachi: German
00:55:27Chris____I believe he said something along the lines of you sending him the iPod, and he puts the software on for you
00:55:33Febshachi: but the service includes installation of the software, so he is distributing the software.
00:55:34Lars_Ghachi: the ".de" ending to the ebay url should tip you off ;)
00:55:41Lars_GChris____: Seems so.
00:55:51Lars_GFebs: Correct.
00:55:57Lars_GFebs: What is exactly your point here?
00:55:59hachiI closed the window long ago
00:56:07 Quit kubiix ("Miranda IM! Smaller, Faster, Easier. http://miranda-im.org")
00:57:46FebsLars_G: I think we're saying the same thing. He can distribute the binary, so long he includes an offer to distribute the source.
00:57:58Lars_GFebs: Yep I think we are :)
00:58:12Lars_GAnd the only way to find out would be buying the service from him
00:58:18hachiyou could email him and ask for the source... citing the GPL
00:58:27Lars_Ghachi: No you couldn't
00:58:49Kasperlearen't the buyers public?
00:58:56hachiwhy can't you?
00:59:02Lars_Ghachi: He'd be obligued to send you the source or provide you with access to it (simply the url to Rockbox) if he has distributed it to YOU
00:59:11Lars_Ghachi: And, you can't force him to distribute the binary to you
00:59:31relaxedrockbox on the nintendo ds would be wonderful. anyone ever toy with that idea?
00:59:54Lars_GHe's forced per the GPL to offer access to the source at equal or lower price than the binary to the people he has distributesd the binary to.
01:00
01:00:15pixelmaif the questions you ask a seller appear automatically on the site someone could spoil the fun by asking directly about rockbox, or am I on the wrong track there?
01:00:24bluebrotherrelaxed, I don't believe someone ever started working on it.
01:00:42Lars_Gpixelma: Why "spoil" it for him? he's basically offering a service.
01:00:48FebsThe questions don't appear automatically.
01:00:57bluebrotherpixelma, I'm not sure if the questions appear automatically but as far as I've seen they to when the seller replies
01:01:08bluebrotherbut I never sold something on ebay
01:01:20Lars_Gpixelma: I tell you, as long as he does comply with the GPL, I preffer someone with knowledge installing rockbox for the newbies than the idjits installing it themselves and then comming here to say "you broke my ipod!!!11!!11"
01:01:33FebsYou can answer questions privately without them appearing in the auction.
01:01:47jbaLars_G, exactly
01:02:01jbapeople seem to get caught up in the GPL and miss the whole spirit of the damn thing
01:02:06pixelmaLars_G: I guess some of his potential buyers would install it themselves if they knew about rockbox
01:02:10bluebrotherLars_G, is he really allowed to ask for up to the price as for the binaries for the source? I thought he only could ask for some transfer compensation
01:02:20Kasperleit's just annoying because that guy acts like he'strying to hide the fact he's installing rockbox
01:02:24jbagood luck to him if he can make money selling an installation service, that is sorely needed
01:02:24Lars_Gjba: It's the reason I normally (save a few exceptions) preffer the BSD license.
01:02:46jbaLars_G, depends on the type of project, runtime -> MIT like, decent app -> GPL like
01:02:50jbafor me anyhow
01:03:28Lars_Gbluebrother: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#TOCDoesTheGPLAllowDownloadFee
01:03:33*Kasperle mutters something about needing a useful BSD-licensed c compiler and scuttles off ;)
01:03:40Lars_Gbluebrother: Altough it seems to apply to download only
01:03:52Lars_GKasperle: Try begging intel to BSD theirs :P
01:03:58Kasperlehaha
01:04:01FebsThe source needs to be distributed for a "charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution." (Section 3(b))
01:04:06Kasperlei'd sooner see TenDra work
01:04:22Lars_GKasperle: Btw the GPL compilers normally have a clause that allows you to license code compiled with them into anything you want, like GCC does so why do you care?
01:04:48KasperleLars_G: just because. It bugs me (and a lot of others) to have to ship a BSD OS with GPLed code
01:05:24Kasperle(well I'm not shipping BSD, but you get my drift)
01:05:26Lars_GKasperle: Meh? a) you're forced to make it available, not forced to include it per se. b) in this case it'd apply only to gcc's source.
01:05:49KasperleLars_G: FreeBSD is useless without a compiler though
01:05:58Lars_Gso?
01:06:06 Quit funky ("leaving")
01:06:17Lars_Gdoes it bust your balls SO much to include gcc because it's GPL? I think you shouldn't be doing OSS dude.
01:06:34Lars_GI mean and please don't take this personally.
01:06:43Kasperlei almost did! ;)
01:06:53Lars_GBut, even when I normally don't use GPL much for my code, GCC is another person's program
01:07:03Lars_GThey, decided to license it under the GPL
01:07:15Lars_Gif you dissagree with such a license you're free not to use it, out of your own ideals.
01:07:27Lars_GAnd you're free to either find a non gpl one, or make your own program.
01:07:50Lars_GOtherwise there wouldn't be so many people eager and happy to pay MS for VS, it's theyr taste and choice
01:07:51KasperleAnd free to decide is not as bad after all, as long as it works
01:09:20Lars_GYou ARE free to decide, and one of the decisions available to you is to rescind a compiler and have an incomplete or "broken" system because you do NOT want to give over on your possition and you can't or don't want to obtain or make a product that meets your demands.

01:15:51spugLars_G: but surely, if the author is situated in the US, for example, that person's work can't be used freely in other countries with more lenient copyright laws?
01:16:19Lars_Gspug: It depends on the international treaties signed by the countries with the US.

01:23:03MidniteFoIs the Rockbox team interested in the Zune at all?
01:23:04nABTR0NOk, i need help when i try to install the firmware and bootloader to my nano it says : generating firmware inage compatible with iPod video>cannot open loader image file bootloader-nano.bin ??
01:23:28Lars_GOk I think I'm gonna shoot myself.
01:23:49Lars_GnABTR0N: Did you obtain the bootloader file that's mentioned in the install howto?
01:23:56Lars_GnABTR0N: Is it on the current directory?
01:24:10nABTR0Ni think
01:24:15MidniteFoDon't shoot yourself, we need your brain matter!
01:24:35Lars_GMidniteFo: How do you know it's usefull? and how do you know it's not been wasted by useless people already?

01:26:51MidniteFospug, what is the first step to porting rockbox to the zune/
01:26:52nABTR0N:D lol i missed that, my bad
01:26:53MidniteFo?
01:27:15MidniteFoI see people posting hardware information but it's slow on the board
01:27:24Lars_GMidniteFo: Reverse engineering the device to determine the hardware configuration it uses
01:27:28spugMidniteFo: developer interest and detailed hardware information
01:27:38bluebrotherby guys, I should finally leave for some sleep
01:28:07bluebrotherMidniteFo, new ports usually start pretty slowly. When most of the hardware works it gets pretty more quicker
01:28:11MidniteFoOK, once we have the specs down, what's next?
01:28:32bluebrotherMidniteFo, see the NewPorts wiki page. Should have most relevant text
01:28:33Lars_GMidniteFo: Then you'd need to write system-specific parts of the kernel in a new port. And possibly find a way to direct-flash the zune and begin testing.

01:30:47Lars_GBtw depending on the CPU used developing the kernel might or might not entrail you forking the target architecture off GCC and toolchain, and patching/rewriting it to handle the specific model of CPU the device is using.
01:30:58Lars_Gbefore you can even compile the first line of code.
01:31:28Lars_Git's also most common you'll have to write a little or lot of new code for the rockbox bootloader
01:32:50Lars_GPorting an OS or system to a new platform is NOT a light task. Specially if the platform maker is one that is usually hot for using hardware based encryption or drm

02:05:12nABTR0NMr. Lars, may i have assistance with the transfer of music to the device?
02:05:15***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
02:06:08Lars_GnABTR0N: There are two ways to read music in the player under rockbox. look for it or use the tag database. Both allow you to throw music files in it and play them from whenever you like it.
02:06:35Lars_Gypou throw files in it however you like either as a mounted usb HDD, or via a software that is able to put music in it.
02:06:49nABTR0NLike WMP?
02:07:19Lars_GDepends. I do not know WMP's habits on putting music on the portable. if it's not adding DRM to the files, and it's not mincing the contents, WMP should work well
02:07:28Lars_Gotherwise just copy stuff to it, as if it where a usb flash drive

03:25:14BratscheHi. I was wondering if someone could lend a hand in installing Rockbox for an iPod.
03:25:29Soultwisterrockbox x awsome way
03:25:41ogiNOTE: press "play/pause" for 2 seconds at the boot prompt to load the original ipod firmware
03:25:42Soultwisterthrough windows
03:25:58ogithats what I get for trying to help at 2am, lol
03:26:06Soultwisteroh sorry
03:26:15Soultwisteri appreciate your help
03:26:27Soultwisterthanks ogi
03:26:29ogino probs, just making some silly mistakes
03:26:35Soultwistere2
03:26:56ogiit wasn't directed at you, rather at the mistake
03:26:56ogilol
03:27:09Soultwisterso is there a boot loader for booting right into rockbox without option screen
03:27:14ogidoes anyone have any idea about getting write access to the wiki
03:27:47ogiwhat option screen? on the ipod, I get the apple logo, if you hit "play/pause" and hold, it will boot the original apple firmware, if you do nothing, it boots rockbox
03:28:30Soultwisterya i dont want option screen
03:28:30ogiat least on my 5g and a 3g I'm flashing
03:28:41ogiyou mean the apple logo bootup?
03:28:45Soultwisterya
03:29:07ogiyou can't, thats part of the apple initialisation, before the rockbox bootloader has a chance
03:29:13ogito do anything about it
03:29:14Soultwisterit gives me an option of apple or rock i dont want that
03:29:28ogiits like the computer BIOS POST
03:29:42oginow about disabling the apple firmware, so you cant switch
03:29:47Soultwisteri want it to go right to rockbox with out option
03:29:48ogiI don't know, it might be possible
03:30:00 Quit MidniteFo ()
03:30:02ogiI presume you just build the bootloader without the apple firmware
03:30:25tehsmohmm, rockbox supports the 5th gen video ipods, does that include the 60gb one?
03:30:30Soultwisteryes
03:30:34tehsmocool
03:30:40Soultwisterwould i have re install
03:30:52Soultwisterto do what i want
03:31:02Soultwisterworks on mine
03:31:12oginot rockbox, but yes to the bootloader
03:31:34ogi@tehsmo, works on my 30g 5th gen like a charm
03:31:43BratscheSo, what would be wrong if ipodpatcher can't find the ipod?
03:31:47Soultwistercool so just over right it with installer
03:31:56oginot so easy
03:32:02ogiI don't know how to do it
03:32:20ogibut why do you want to prevent the option? unless you press the button it will not come up
03:32:21tehsmocool stuff, I'm probably going to get a 60gb and put rockbox on it
03:32:25ogiand it takes the same space no matter what
03:32:34*tehsmo was going to get an iaudix x5, but was scared away by stories of terrible customer service

03:33:25Soultwisterwell if i borrow my ipod to a freind i dont want them to know how to get my ipod it has personal info for my eyes only
03:33:25ogimy ipod was a gift, but I was planning on getting one older for rockbox, wanted good flac/ogg player
03:33:50ogithe ipod is seen as a hard disk to any computer you connect to it, and everything is browsable
03:33:57ogiremoving the apple firmware will not prevent that
03:35:25ogi@tehsmo: note that there is quite a bit of work until the ipod is fully utilised, it works great as it is, but it can get better, especially when support for the second ARM core is ironed out
03:35:36tehsmoah
03:35:36Soultwisteri know but they anint going look at my ipod with a computer
03:36:09Soultwisterthere just gonna use it when im around
03:36:30ogi@tehsmo: but for the moment, music playback is great (flac/ogg/mp3 tested here) but with no video playback support, no TV out and limited recording (line in from what I hear it)
03:36:33ogiwell

03:37:02tehsmoI just want an mp3 player that uses the filesystem
03:37:14tehsmoas opposed to proprietary software
03:37:26ogi@Soultwister: well, they can access the same no matter which firmware they use
03:37:37ogiin fact, the rockbox firmware will allow greater access to files, than the ipod one
03:37:42 Part Bratsche
03:37:44ogias it has a filebrowser builtin
03:37:44tehsmoright
03:37:53tehsmoiirc you can't play stuff from the apple firmware unless it was copied with itunes
03:38:01tehsmoor an equivalent
03:38:03oginope
03:38:33ogibut from what I gather, Soultwister is worried that someone can view personal files of some sort if he lends his ipod to someone
03:39:12ogi(unless I misunderstood him)
03:39:26tehsmoindeed ..perhaps he should look into encryption schemes
03:40:02ogiyeah that could work
03:40:47ogiI am happy with my ipod I have to say, primarily because of the hardware

03:45:17bananacould someone help me with the ipodpatcher program?
03:45:43ogisorry, not me, don't use the program
03:46:00bananayeah, i'm just trying to install rockbox
03:46:21ogiI can try
03:46:24ogiwhats the problem?
03:47:10bananawell, from what i can tell, the computer can't find the ipod
03:47:34bananai think you need the number for installing the bootloader.
03:47:43bananaand that's what the ipodpatcher.exe is for
03:48:23ogiI presume the ipodpatcher patches the ipod to run both rockbox and the apple firmware
03:48:31ogiyou are running windows, right?
03:48:34bananaprobably.
03:48:44bananayes, windows me, which probably is the problem.
03:48:49ogilol
03:49:12ogiwell, what interface? (and what ipod)
03:49:16ogiusb or firewire?
03:49:26bananait's a 2G ipod mini on usb
03:49:30ogiok
03:49:36ogiand windows does not detect it at all?
03:49:56bananawell, windows does.
03:49:59ogidoes it appear on iTunes? or as a removable disk (under the removable devices taskbar icon)
03:50:07bananait shows up in explorer, yes, as a removable disk
03:50:13bananathat's all normal.
03:50:17ogigd gd
03:50:28ogiwhere does it all go wrong?
03:50:31bananaok
03:50:46bananaso, the wiki says you need to find a number that's assigned to your ipod in order to run the ipodpatcher program
03:50:57ogii see
03:51:09bananaby typing in the command prompt "ipodpatcher 0", "ipodpatcher 1" etc
03:51:13bananaup to 26
03:51:49bananathose commands don't do anything
03:53:34SoapIsOutOfTowndon't do anything at all?
03:53:54ogihave you set the ipod as "disk mode" under itunes
03:54:12SoapIsOutOfTownHe sees it in Windows Explorer
03:54:23ogiok
03:54:23bananaYes, it's set in disk mode
03:54:29ogijust checking
03:54:32bananaAnd yes, I see it in explorer

03:57:48tehsmoyou could try running a bootable knoppix cd to do the install, if you don't want to change OS's permanently
03:58:14bananayeah
03:58:46ogiis it me or does it seem easier to do on linux?
03:59:52ogiunderstandably, windows me is not the best of windows OS's
04:00
04:00:48bananaYes, I'm planning on buying a new computer soon. Until then, I'm stuck.
04:01:20ogiwhat do you have? perhaps an upgrade (downgrade?) to windows 2000 would not be a bad idea
04:01:29ogiand should work on similar hardware
04:01:37SoapIsOutOfTownI gotta run, but check the wiki instructions, I don't recall if you need Windows NT or not, I'm thinking for some reason you do.
04:01:49bananaOK.
04:01:52bananathanks for your help.
04:01:56SoapIsOutOfTownogi: 2K is the peak of Windows, it is never a downgrade. ;)
04:02:10ogihehehe, its the only version I ever run
04:02:10ogilol
04:02:21SoapIsOutOfTownand, yes, 2K will work on most any computer 98/ME will, often better.
04:02:41ogibut I think it would be classed as a downgrade, as it was released before ME
04:02:43SoapIsOutOfTownBut banana has proven he is a good boy and not pirating windows, for no warez monkey would be caught dead with ME.
04:02:50ogihahahahaha
04:02:56ogilol
04:03:05bananaoh, I can't imagine why you would pirate ME.
04:03:10ogisadism?
04:03:12bananaIt would be like shooting yourself in the foot.
04:03:17bananalol, most likely.
04:03:26SoapIsOutOfTownogi: 2K is NT, ME is 98+themes and more USB support. There is no way 2K is a downgrade.
04:03:34SoapIsOutOfTown2k is still supported, ME is not.
04:03:55ogiwasn't ME some attempt at merging NT and win98 into a "home" NT version
04:04:06ogihence getting rid of the DOS base ?
04:04:06bananaI think so.
04:04:16SoapIsOutOfTownno, ME was released, IIRC, for home use because XP was late.
04:04:26bananabut anyways, I'm off to try a live CD.
04:04:28SoapIsOutOfTownXP was the merging of NT and home.
04:04:29zei thought ME was just win98 with some extra garbage to make it seem new
04:04:29bananathanks a lot.

04:04:57scorchethere were 2 different projects at redmond...NT (2000) and ME (old system)
04:05:16scorchethe developers were split as to which route they should go
04:05:17***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
04:05:41ogiheya
04:05:50SoapIsOutOfTownwhere did you read that? ME was the year 2000 release of the 9x line just-in-time-for-christmas.
04:06:02scorchei didnt read that
04:06:16scorchethat is from a friend i have that used to work for M$
04:06:36SoapIsOutOfTownI think the plan was always to move the home users to the NT side eventually, just that the transfer came to late for the marketing department, so ME was pushed out the door.
04:07:04SoapIsOutOfTownfor ME has no structural changes over 98
04:07:13scorchei know
04:08:09scorcheas i said...the devs were split...the NT group, and the 9x group who didnt want to switch over to NT...of course both groups thought the other was better
04:08:39scorches/the other was/themselves were
04:08:54scorchestill not right, but you get it
04:09:18ogiwhat were the benefits of 9x ?
04:09:33scorcheheh....not DOS
04:09:40ogilol
04:09:51scorchewell, not totally on DOS
04:09:56ogididn't ME get rid of DOS as the base?
04:10:25 Quit TeaSeaLancs (Remote closed the connection)
04:10:33SoapIsOutOfTownno, ME was still DOS based, but didn't boot through DOS (unlike 98) to boot faster.
04:10:48ogiwhat did it boot from? I thought that was the NT bit
04:11:39SoapIsOutOfTownthey simply bypassed real dos mode, and bastardised the minimal they needed to boot ME, leaving you the worst of both worlds.

09:36:43webguest13Hi, yesterday I observed a weird behaviour on my H120 (with the most recent build). I played an mp3 file, then went to the pitch screen and set it to 105% (the exact value doesn't matter), then returned to the WPS and jumped to the start of the song (pressed left). There was no music and the progress bar advanced very quickly, and elapsed time counted also quickly (at about double speed). I again went to the
09:37:34daurnimator I again went to the..
09:39:36webguest13daurnimator: what?

09:40:19daurnimatoryou didn't finish the sentance
09:41:26webguest13daurnimator: I did, it probably wasn't transmitted correctly. here it is:
09:41:30webguest13I again went to the pitch screen and after the first change (to 104.9%) the sound appeared again. Any ideas?

09:57:59peturwebguest13: confirmed. Can you post this in the bugtracker?
09:58:11scorcheLinusN: heh...yeah...
09:58:42*petur makes a mental note that he shouldn't try to change the pitch of songs of The Smiths - sound very weird
09:58:48LinusNit doesn't bother me that they are selling rockbox, as long as they follow the gpl license
09:59:24scorchewhat bothers me is the complete lack of credit
09:59:39peturwebguest13: are you still here?
10:00
10:00:06scorcheboth to us (rockbox crew) and the WPS creators
10:00:12LinusNscorche: yeah, it's annoying
10:00:20peturpressing stop to leave the pitch screen feels very strange btw....
10:00:34LinusNwell, they might be violating copyright law with the wps'es
10:00:58scorcheaye
10:01:04peturI'm sure a simple mail to ebay can solve this ;)
10:01:37scorchepetur: i would rather cut it off at the root....or at least give them a chance to properly do things
10:02:02*petur hands scorche the axe
10:02:53webguest13petur: yes. What DAP do you have?

10:04:23peturwebguest13: you post it to the tracker please?
10:04:56webguest13petur: in the flayspray, they ask about the platform. I remember the guide line of submitting bug reports for emacs: just describe what you've observed, make no assumptions.
10:05:26peturplatform = SW-Codec

10:06:58LinusNscorche: i think you could just ask them if they have modified rockbox in any way, and whether they provide the source code
10:07:59LinusNand perhaps if they have the wps authors' permisson to redistribute
10:08:52scorcheit is obvious that they do not, but I will get to that in the conversation i am sure
10:09:24LinusNgood
10:09:29tychvernot to be a burden but could someone please have a look at my update to the ipod scrolling acceleration patch so it compiles withe the latest CVS
10:09:31*petur whispers 'kill kill kill'
10:09:34tychverhttp://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5594
10:09:45scorchedont worry...i will keep you informed ;)
10:09:50webguest13 petur: how can you tell H300 from SW-codec platform?
10:09:56tychverIt probably breaks every convention known to man...
10:10:27peturwebguest13: I'm pretty sure the bug you see is not hardware related but common to all players that decode music in software
10:11:16webguest13 petur: Ok, in this case it is very likely. But in general? If I have to submit a bug, when should I choose SW-codec?
10:11:46webguest13 petur: FS #6389
10:12:33peturwebguest13: really depends on the bug. You can always select your DAP and a dev will change it if it's obviously wrong. Having it marked for a specific DAP isn't too bad anyway...

10:25:57peturwebguest13: agree

10:53:09scorchei noticed =)
10:53:13Soultwisterlol
10:53:46Soultwisterwhat i ment to ask is when i compile a patch what does it turn into
10:54:15Soultwisterid rather get a compiled version of the patch
10:54:41scorcheyou get a build
10:55:15scorchethen look in the unofficial builds forum for a build for your target that includes those patches
10:55:58scorchebut compiling and tasks of that sort are beneficial for one to learn
10:56:16Soultwisteryes i agree
10:56:42Soultwisteri tried once to compile a game for linux failed alot

10:59:09scorchewell, then i suggest you start learning
10:59:33tychverto be honest I think that the scrolling patch is far too jerky and needs about a couple more steps in it but I guess that means using more resources
10:59:54Soultwisteroh]
11:00
11:00:11Soultwisteri have a 60 gig 5th gen
11:00:13scorchetychver: it is a patch...
11:00:22scorcheyou can edit it however you want
11:00:28scorchethere are reasons it is not in cvs
11:00:48Soultwisterwould it be easier to use tagcache
11:01:03scorcheas long as we are not busy and are in the mood, we will help you here or in the forums...although, we do like to see that you have made some effort to try and find the answer first...so, if you do have an issue, it would be wise to search the forums for people who have had that issue before, among other methods
11:01:15scorche@ Soultwister
11:01:29scorcheSoultwister: for what?
11:01:50Soultwisterto view album art that has been made with itunes
11:02:02scorcheitunes cannot do that
11:02:17obotychver: it could do with TPs list scrolling changes as well...
11:02:17scorcheerrr...tagcache
11:02:23Soultwisterinbeded in the mp3
11:02:31Soultwisterit self
11:02:54Soultwisteri have album art already imbedding in my mp3
11:03:01Soultwisters
11:03:06scorcheitunes actually extracts the album art from the mp3 when it puts it on the ipod

11:05:02tychverso you suggest that I add the extra levels of scrolling speed?
11:06:06tychverI'll be free for 8 weeks in 48 hours (school holidays), I'll see what I can do over the summer
11:06:38tychverI don't know that much C, tried to learn a few times but lost interest, now I actually want to do something with it and I'm mostly learning as I go
11:06:57oboTPs first version of the patch included more changes to list.[ch] - those sped up the list scrolling, I think he said it was 12 times faster
11:07:19tychveryeah it was, pretty much inversely linear to the font size too!
11:08:00tychverI'll see what I can do over the next 8 weeks about that, I'm not really the best person to be doing this but why not :)
11:08:23tychverthat was with a size 14 font, with a size 5 its about 27 times faster
11:09:20tychverand with a size 21 like 5 times faster
11:09:25tychverwait that's not linear at all

11:33:21amiconnWhy are there still button #defines in core .h files??
11:33:58amiconnButton actions should have made them superfluous
11:35:43*amiconn wonders about several things related to this scoll acceleration patch
11:37:15LinusNiäm not sure about that status bar update thing
11:38:48LinusNbut the inability to include button.h twici is easy to solve, since he added the stuff *after* the #endif /* BUTTON_H */
11:38:54amiconnThat's one point
11:39:41LinusNi only had a brief look at the coding style
11:40:17amiconnThe others are (1) Is the scrolling really too slow on some ipods?
11:40:21 Join phlasphy [0] (n=Ash@124.177.66.27)
11:40:33amiconnMy problem with the scroll wheel is that it's rather too fast to precisely go to a certain line
11:41:15amiconnI practially always go too far first, and have to scrol back
11:41:16phlasphyhey all
11:41:22phlasphyi was thinking about getting an ipod
11:41:43scorcheamiconn: i think that is more an issue of sensitivity than speed
11:41:53amiconn(2) Why only for the 4g, and why is the mini excluded? (mini1g that is)
11:41:59phlasphyand install rockbox on it
11:42:01amiconn4g pad I mean
11:42:07phlasphybut i have a few questions
11:42:38scorcheand the speed is no issue for those of us who have their music properly organized, but for those who have many many items in one folder, it takes quite a while to go throguh it
11:42:59Febsamiconn: yes, scrolling is too slow in some instances. Scrolling long lists takes a long time.
11:43:14phlasphycan i put the original apple firmaware back on if i dont like rockbox?
11:43:20Febsphlasphy: yes.
11:43:37scorchephlasphy: actually, the original firmware is kept on the device and is dual-bootable
11:43:42FebsYou can also dual boot, so you can run the apple firmware without having to uninstall Rockbox.
11:44:01phlasphydoes that mean i would need a boot loader like GRUB or LILO
11:44:06scorcheno
11:44:13amiconnscorche: I can go through the database all-tracks list on my mini rather quick. Okay, a 4GB mini doesn't hold that many tracks...
11:44:16phlasphyok
11:44:18scorcheit is dual boot by default
11:44:22phlasphyok
11:44:30phlasphyand if i want to uninstall rockbox
11:44:54scorchethere are uninstallation instructions along with the installation instructions
11:45:06phlasphyok and there would be no traces of it?
11:45:14scorchejust make sure and keep the original bootpartition.bin as it says to
11:45:25scorchepretty much
11:45:39phlasphypretty much?
11:45:42scorcheamiconn: yes
11:45:52scorchephlasphy: for all practical purposes yes
11:45:57phlasphyok
11:46:12phlasphywhat are some cons to using rockbox?
11:46:16phlasphypros and cons
11:46:18scorcheamiconn: but like i said..it takes quite a while for others
11:46:38scorchephlasphy: i suggest you read http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WhyRockbox
11:46:47phlasphythanks

11:47:55scorchei have a couple
11:48:11phlasphyok
11:48:20phlasphywill it work on a ipod video 30gb
11:48:32scorcheprovided it isnt the new type, yes
11:48:42scorchewhen was it purchased?
11:48:52phlasphyumm i will be getting it at xmas
11:48:58scorcheah
11:49:24scorchewell, there is a way to install rockbox on the new ones, but it is not yet fully stable
11:49:30scorcheit will be in time of course though
11:49:38phlasphyok will it be by xmas?

11:53:45phlasphyso will rockbox increase sound quality?
11:54:35LinusNnot really
11:54:35scorchethe sound quality is basically the same, but rockbox has many options to tune the sound to your ear/sound better to you
11:54:51phlasphyok
11:55:13phlasphyand can i turn my ipod into a brick when trying to install it

11:57:37scorchewell, the definition of "bricking" is to make a device not operating or recoverable by any means
11:57:43phlasphyok
11:57:52scorchewell, any non-hardware means
11:58:14phlasphyi am thinking about just using ALAC on normal firmware instead of FLAC on rockbox

12:09:59FebsPersonally, I can't understand why Rockbox users even care about 1.31 since it only adds things that Rockbox already has.
12:10:56LinusNno, i don't plan on supporting it until i release a new bootloader
12:11:28phlasphyok when i get my ipod i will dual boot this and original

13:46:42blue_lizard[13:41:36] <phlasphy> really
13:46:54blue_lizardask people who have tinitus
13:47:20phlasphybut how can you teach your ear
13:47:47blue_lizardof course not the ear but the system behind it and the brain
13:47:49*Febs has tinnitus.
13:47:56*blue_lizard to

13:48:15phlasphywhat is tinnitus
13:48:22FebsPermanent ringing in the ears.

13:48:36phlasphypoor you
13:48:41phlasphyhow do you get that?
13:48:50FebsToo many years as a working musician.
13:48:56blue_lizardfortunately my is at ~12kHz
13:49:09phlasphythat means
13:49:22blue_lizardit is easier to overhear it
13:49:42phlasphyok
13:49:51phlasphycan you teach your ear not to hear it
13:50:02blue_lizardsoem people have 2 or three tones between 2-7 kHz and that drives them crayzy
13:50:19blue_lizardyes you can learn to overhear it
13:50:34phlasphythat would drive me crazy
13:50:47blue_lizardit is the same as musicians learn to hear drums or bass or lead guitar better then the rest
13:50:55phlasphyok

14:08:20XavierGrthere is not much you can do about it so....
14:08:29phlasphyso why does it happen?
14:08:51blue_lizardstress, to loud sounds (music,weapons)
14:09:06XavierGrwell I got it from a barotrauma. I dived to much into the sea without equalizing correctly
14:09:25blue_lizardsometimes a side effect of illness
14:09:55phlasphywould you rather be deaf?
14:09:58XavierGrsome say it is permanent slight hearing loss
14:10:14blue_lizardphlasphy: no
14:10:16XavierGrof course not
14:10:17phlasphyok
14:10:57blue_lizardhigh blod presure makes it louder
14:11:02*phlasphy wonders where his brother put his ear phones
14:11:28blue_lizardso one has to avoid stress and to much spices in the meals
14:11:55blue_lizardmine is getting better if i drink more water
14:12:26blue_lizardso i try to drink 1.5l water more at work
14:12:40XavierGrwow
14:12:45blue_lizardprobably because the blod is more fluid
14:13:03XavierGrwell I can't say that I can hear major difference with different diets
14:13:36XavierGrI always hear the ringing when I am talking about it or there is complete silence where I am

14:23:22blue_lizardif you put power into the speaker it creates air presure

16:42:09sekondchakraicatcher doesn't seem to have meters...

16:43:25Gneliki am talking about my bootloader

20:12:36lowlightThat section was marked as a "subroutine". What do I look for in the preceeding code before the branch to that sub?

21:26:34bluebrotherjjl55, showing up the folders? What do you mean?
21:27:19jjl55it shows the actual folders in the root directory of the ipod (rockbox, notes, calendar, etc)
21:27:52bluebrotherthat's perfectly ok. What are you expecting?
21:28:24jjl55i thought it was supposed to come up after the splash screen with a list of all my music folders
21:28:56bluebrotherno. Rockbox uses a file view as default
21:29:08n1sjjl55: look for database in the manual
21:29:16bluebrotheralternatively you can use the database view
21:29:40jjl55okay maybe thats what im expecting
21:30:02bluebrotheryou can also look for the term "tagcache" −− that's what it was called until some days ago

22:46:49dan_ascorche: What did he say?
22:47:00scorcheHi,
22:47:01scorcheIn fact it's very easy: You can boot your iPod as USB Mass-Storage Drive (this is a build in functionality). In this mode, it is possible to change the bootloader. The bootloader is selfwritten and just a single binary file in the root directory of the iPod. After that, we can start our own application instead of the iPod software, or, switch back to the original software while booting the player (thx to the selfwritten bootloader).
22:47:01scorcheThe application itself is a normal C++ Application compiled with the GCC for ARM processors.

22:47:01scorcheC YA

22:50:04lowlightmy brain's not working...is "LSL r2,r2,#1; LSR r2,r2,#1" the same as "r2 | 0x80000000"?

22:53:18rasherWell yes, he doesn
22:53:25rasher't fill me with confidence.
22:53:29scorchewell, he is taking the WPSs and marketing them as his own
22:53:46FebsWe should buy one copy and then leave feedback saying "The same thing is available for free at www.rockbox.org."
22:54:00lowlightdan_a: thanks

22:55:08FebsDo an advanced search for that seller and completed items.
22:55:18scorchei am at the moment
22:55:46scorchebut it is a buy it now, which means that you cant see any bids/winners like normally
22:55:49bluebrotherbut is selling artwork from the internet as his own legal in germany?
22:56:39hcsseems that it would depend somewhat on the license of the WPS...
22:56:54scorchei also wish that i could get a hold of the binary he puts on there to see if it is modified...
22:57:01FebsHis statement that the software is "selfwritten" would probably constitute fraud and a violation of various consumer protection acts in the United States.
22:57:40scorchehcs: they arent under a license
22:58:03n1sWe should put www.rockbox.org in the splash, and if someone removed it they would have to host their own sources, not just link.

23:00:01bluebrotherbut maybe add it as additional line there
23:00:42scorchebluebrother: that is why i am wondering if he modified the code at all
23:00:54scorchethen again, he said it was in C++
23:01:12Genre9mp3he maybe doesn't know that Rockbox is in C

23:13:25 Quit freqmod (Read error: 131 (Connection reset by peer))
23:13:37n1s0) learn to search the wiki :-)
23:13:55preglowdan_a: having a look
23:14:07dan_apreglow: Thank you
23:14:10Bagder0.5) search for forums for existing custom builds with the patches applied
23:14:21Bagdersearch the forums even
23:16:06ani-adomammmmmmmmm
23:16:10ani-adomdev kit?
23:16:28tyrionani-adom: search for it
23:16:51preglowfound a small optimisation if nothing else :>
23:16:53ani-adomwere?
23:17:10ani-adomni rockbox?
23:17:38dan_apreglow: That's likely - it's mostly a cut-and-paste job from the existing bootloader

23:19:37preglowhmm, line 61 and on looks weird
23:20:02preglowseems like it does r0 = dataend - 0x40000000
23:20:17preglowand i think dataend is very much lower for the bootloader than 0x40000000
23:22:05preglowalso, line 57
23:22:11preglowshouldn't constant be 0xff000000 ?
23:22:15dan_adataend is in my bootloader.map as 4000e064
23:22:41 Join Ribs2 [0] (n=freenode@91.84.8.218)
23:22:46preglowyeah, here too, checked the map
23:23:46 Quit hcs ("Download Gaim: http://gaim.sourceforge.net/")
23:23:49dan_aI'd say you were right about line 57, but that is in the original loader (which works.) I'll try it with the mask changed, though
23:24:11 Quit Lear ("Chatzilla 0.9.75 [Firefox 2.0/2006101023]")
23:24:20preglowit probably doesn't matter since the address probably is so low it'll work
23:24:43preglowi could have sworn i used 0xff000000 when i first wrote the arm bootloader
23:25:32preglowyeah, it's correct here, in crt0-pp.S
23:26:01preglowin which case the optimisation i first talked about doesn't apply anymore :>
23:26:53dan_aIt's correct in the non-bootloader part of crt0-pp, but it's 0xffffff00 in the bootloader section
23:27:58preglowso i see
23:28:52dan_aBut that's not the cause of the problem - with the mask changed it still doesn't work.
23:29:03jba hey guys, anyone have much experience debuggin with splashes? As in why do they sometimes work and sometimes not?
23:29:10 Quit ani-adom (":")
23:29:10preglowahh, right, now i remember, the whole thing is linked for IRAM
23:29:21jbain particular why I can't get splash to work in audio_stop of playback.c?
23:29:51jbajhMikeS, if you're watching am trying to test a possible fix to the corrupt playing variable on the gigabeat port, but want to use the splash to do it
23:31:07jhMikeSjba: won't tell you since I can't get "I got a bag full 'o crabs here" out of my here :D
23:32:05preglowdan_a: hrm, i'm thinking line 72 might be pretty dangerous

23:33:12dan_apreglow: Are you thinking if the COP hits that line before the CPU sets the startup location?
23:33:44dan_aIgnore that, I'm getting confused between start_loc and startup_loc
23:34:10preglowdan_a: that line really turns into a pc relative load
23:34:27preglowno, wait, wait, this has to work somehow
23:34:32preglowor ipods would not be booting today
23:34:52preglowyeah, it does work, forget me
23:37:23dan_apreglow: Yes, I've just checked in the decompile, and that turns to a jump into IRAM

23:38:11dan_aWas the optimization you were talking about to do an RSL followed by the LSL by any chance?

23:38:41preglowno, it was doing a bic r4, pc, #0xff
23:39:06preglowwhich replaces lines 57-58 and saves eight bytes in total
23:39:11preglowjust nitpicking :>
23:39:37dan_apreglow: It's the only way I'll learn :D
23:40:08preglowdan_a: if you changed the constant to 0xff000000 that can be changed to and r4, pc, #0xff000000 anyway
23:40:18preglowlike i do in crt0-pp.S
23:42:09 Quit Febs (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
23:43:49preglowbut i can't see anything wrong
23:43:52preglowexactly what happens?
23:44:24 Part Plouj ("oy!")
23:44:31dan_aIt runs main(), and then reboots to the bootloader
23:45:04dan_aHmmm, the change you suggested saved more than 4 bytes...
23:45:13preglowit should save eight
23:46:20dan_a256, according to "ls -l bootloader/bootloader.bin"
23:46:55preglowwhat? changed to a single instrudction and saved 256 bytes?

23:47:52dan_aYes. I'll undo it and see if it changes back.
23:48:40preglowprobably hit some alignment or something, then

23:49:39MercutioHello everyone, have a challenge question for anyone
23:50:05Mercutioanyone looked at the zune much?
23:50:49dan_apreglow: It must be an alignment thing
23:51:46preglowhmm
23:51:53preglowthere might be a race condition in here
23:52:18Mercutio?
23:52:31preglowthe main cpu, after loading the firmware image, wakes the cop then immediately jumps to crt0
23:52:55preglowthe first thing the cop does after waking is starting to flush its cache, which means it'll be staying and executing in iram for a little while yet
23:53:10preglowthis depends on crt0 on the cpu not clearing the iram too fast
23:53:21preglowif it does clear the iram at all, hmm, lemme check
23:53:31Mercutiowell guess that tells me what I need to know for now
23:53:34 Join hcs [0] (n=agashlin@rockbox/contributor/hcs)
23:54:02Mercutiowould donating a zune to rockbox help garner some interest?
23:54:07preglowit doesn't, then ok
23:54:14dan_aMercutio: I don't think anyone in here has a Zune. Nobody's mentioned it, anyway.
23:54:20 Part hcs
23:54:44BagderMercutio: if you find any dev who feels like getting a Zune would kickstart their effort on it - I doubt you'll do that
23:54:53MercutioI reccomend looking at it, some interesting possibilities if unlocked with linux
23:55:04Bagderrockbox is not linux...
23:55:22Mercutiook but you are about replacing the firmware yes?
23:55:22preglowwe only wish it was!
23:55:52preglowyes
23:56:24Mercutioso unlocking the potential of the zune starts with replacing the firmware MS has put in there
23:56:33Mercutioor am I all wrong?
23:56:37preglowno
23:56:41dan_apreglow: I guess I could try to wait for the COP to finish invalidating its cache before jumping into crt0
23:56:43Bagderthat sounds right
23:56:46preglowbut i don't know what the hardware doc status is for the zune
23:56:56BagderMercutio: but replacing the firmware/OS of a player is a major effort
23:56:58Mercutioyou mean specs I assume?
23:57:02preglowMercutio: yes
23:57:11Mercutioyes but I think it would be worth it after looking at a zune
23:57:12preglowdan_a: doubt it'll matter
23:57:29Mercutiomostly for the wiFi
23:57:43dan_aMercutio: You might want to talk to the people trying to get Rockbox on the Gigabeat - I believe the hardware is somewhat similar.
23:58:09Bagderthe zune uses a freescale i.mx iirc
23:58:10Mercutiothats what I have been seeing in my researching on the zune
23:58:24MercutioI admit most of this is over my head
23:58:38Mercutiojust looking for the help from those who know what they are doing
