01:26:28 | saratoga | can I apply and then withdraw later? |

02:44:21 | GrooveStix | hmm |
02:44:49 | GrooveStix | I thought it's the configuration |

03:26:44 | chrisjs169|afk | i've been busy today, but were the sound 'settings' modified for the Sansa today? I just updated to the latest build and a lot of my songs are skipping... |
03:30:15 | Overand | I've had some issues with locking up with the new firmware on my iPod, but i can't really track it down to a specific thing |
03:30:29 | Overand | not sure how to file bug reports- it's during playback, really |
03:30:55 | Llorean | Overand: What bootloader version are you using? |
03:31:03 | Overand | i used a 'recent' one |
03:31:09 | Overand | the patcher didn't have parameters |
03:31:15 | Overand | is there a way for me to check? |
03:31:25 | Overand | i downloaded it from the link in the html manual for the video ipod |
03:31:48 | Llorean | What type of iPod do you have? |
03:31:55 | Overand | i did hear that the older bootloader had some stability problems with the ipod - oh, and i've had inconsistent behavior with my scroll wheel |
03:31:58 | Overand | 5g 60 gig |
03:32:01 | Llorean | chrisjs169|afk: It doesn't look like there have been any changed that could cause that. |
03:32:04 | Overand | er |
03:32:10 | Overand | 'stability problemd with the current firmware' |
03:32:12 | Llorean | Overand: And you're using a Rockbox bootloader, not the iPL one? |
03:32:14 | Overand | the scrollwheel usually is 'slow' |
03:32:17 | Overand | Llorean: correct |
03:32:34 | Llorean | What kind of stability problems, _exactly_? |
03:32:34 | Overand | and the scrollwheel has always been 'slow' - but once, when i was scrolling, it moved through the list at near-native ipod-firmware speed |
03:32:46 | Overand | Llorean: locking up, usually i *think* during song starts |
03:33:01 | | Quit webguest42 ("CGI:IRC") |
03:33:02 | Overand | skipping from one track to another, *possibly* when i've been playing with plugins recently |
03:33:24 | Overand | I know that's only semi-specific, and i'm not certain that's accurate- I *will* see if I can figure it out more specifically as I use it. |
03:33:30 | chrisjs169|afk | Llorean, weird...the display sometime freezes up while playing music, but right now almost every song i play 'skips' |
03:33:52 | Llorean | Overand: What kind of freeze? Does the backlight respond, is there a message of any sort? |
03:34:01 | Overand | bacvklight doesn't respond, no message |
03:34:07 | Llorean | chrisjs169|afk: Have you changed _anything_ other than just updating to a new build? |
03:34:09 | Overand | i can't do anything except hold select+menu |
03:34:18 | Overand | (I'm *pretty* sure the backlight doesn't respond) |
03:34:27 | Llorean | Overand: And what "current firmware" do you mean? Which SVN revision is it? |
03:34:32 | Llorean | And I assume you've got no patches. |
03:34:35 | Overand | no patches |
03:34:48 | Overand | it was a nightly from... ~2-3 days ago. grabbing version now |
03:34:53 | Llorean | That's not current |
03:34:57 | chrisjs169|afk | Llorean, well, I installed a new bootloader, but forgot to load the OF and it didn't update (after updating, no difference either) |
03:35:12 | Overand | Llorean: I could pull down a new one. |
03:35:14 | Llorean | Overand: Please, when you say the current version, mean the one you get from the "Current Version" link, not a 3 day old build. |
03:35:18 | | Join Thundercloud__ [0] (n=thunderc@82.152.172.250) |
03:35:24 | Overand | Llorean: yeah, that's reasonable. |

03:35:35 | Overand | I hadn't thought about how long it had been. |
03:35:45 | Llorean | chrisjs169|afk: Forgot to load the OF? |
03:35:46 | Overand | 07/03/20 |
03:35:56 | Llorean | chrisjs169|afk: I don't even know what you mean by that exactly |
03:36:16 | Overand | I'll install a new one and see. Is there a specific link I should use for the bootloader, or was the one in the html-manual correct? |
03:36:42 | Llorean | Overand: Build and Bootloader are two different things. |
03:36:46 | Overand | Llorean: I know that. |
03:36:59 | Overand | I'm asking about the bootloader now, I'm already on my way to pull down the build. |
03:37:02 | chrisjs169|afk | Llorean, I had manually compiled a new bootloader/mi4 file, but forgot to go back into the OF to have it update it |
03:37:08 | Overand | I just want to make sure I'm not uysing a stale bootloader. |
03:37:17 | Llorean | Overand: If your bootloader was built into ipodpatcher, then it's new enugh |
03:37:20 | Llorean | enough |
03:37:25 | Overand | K, thanks. |
03:37:29 | Llorean | chrisjs169|afk: That's not the install process any more. |
03:37:36 | Llorean | chrisjs169|afk: Not even remotely close to it, even. |
03:37:48 | chrisjs169|afk | lol |
03:37:51 | Overand | Llorean: with a 3-day-old build, should i bother re-writing the .rockbox directory structure, or can I just overwrite the rockbox binary itself? |
03:38:02 | Llorean | Overand: ALWAYS rewrite the .rockbox folder. |
03:38:09 | Overand | Llorean: I always do, that's why I asked =] |
03:38:12 | Llorean | That's why our documentation says explicitly to extract the whole .zip to the device. |
03:38:33 | Overand | Llorean: I always extract that, then decompress my themes, and re-do any prefs changes by hand |
03:39:05 | Llorean | You shouldn't need to re-do any changes to the main config or re-extrac themes. |
03:39:36 | Overand | Llorean: so overwriting the contents of .rockbox is ok, leaving the files I already have there OK? |
03:39:44 | Overand | I would actually wipe (well, rename) the existing .rockbox |
03:39:54 | Llorean | Yeah |
03:40:25 | Overand | thanks. sorry to be asking basic stuff here, but I'd rather not have any other problems potentially leading to issues with this if i'm going to try to track down a bug |
03:40:40 | Overand | oh- do you have any idea what might have caused the hugely different scroll-wheel-through-file-list speeds? |
03:41:35 | Llorean | It shouldn't have changed drastically between recent builds |
03:41:44 | Overand | That's the thing- it wasn't between builds. |
03:41:47 | Overand | It's always been 'slow' |
03:41:59 | Overand | but for about 15 seconds, it was scrolling 'fast.' |
03:41:59 | Llorean | Well then what's it hugely different from? |
03:42:09 | Overand | have you used native ipod firmware? |
03:42:11 | Llorean | Yes |
03:42:16 | Llorean | But Rockbox has always been slower than that |
03:42:22 | Overand | yes, I know |
03:42:32 | Llorean | So what are you asking, _exactly_ |
03:42:32 | Overand | but for ~15 seconds it scrolled significantly faster than it usually does |
03:42:58 | Llorean | Possibly while the CPU was boosting. |
03:43:03 | Overand | I know the ipod firmware has 'acceleration' that rockbox doesn't use, but this was still the 'feel' or rockbox, but instead of. |
03:43:06 | Overand | aah.... |
03:43:08 | Overand | that would explain it. |
03:43:32 | Overand | It didn't ever happen on my ~2 month old single-cpu build, but it's only happened once so far on this newer one |

09:58:34 | std|denis | hey guys |
09:59:02 | std|denis | does somebody tried to use the bootloader from current SVN? |
09:59:10 | std|denis | on iRiver H1xx |
09:59:57 | scorche | well, im sure that the developer who committed it tried it first... |
10:00 |
10:00:17 | std|denis | i got a unexpected behaviour |
10:00:43 | scorche | and i got a very unspecific response |
10:00:51 | std|denis | i changed the code - put a "shutdown()" at the end of "Bootloader USB mode" code |
10:01:35 | | Join Thundercloud [0] (n=thunderc@82.152.175.80) |
10:02:05 | Llorean | std|denis: Well, we tend to strongly recommend against compiling your own bootloaders for the H100 and H300, which is why we provide a specific version. |
10:02:30 | std|denis | and after putting new bootloader into device, my iRiver shutting down at very beginning of startup |
10:03:05 | std|denis | it shows me "shutting down..." message, but i can't imagine where the execution going to shutdown() func.. |
10:03:23 | std|denis | i thought it is due to the low battery. but it doesn't |
10:03:58 | std|denis | but i found the way to start it :) |
10:05:06 | std|denis | all i have to do is press joystick button in some direction or even "stop" button simultaneously to "ON" button |
10:05:21 | std|denis | dunno whether it is a bug |
10:05:22 | Llorean | So basically you're very, very lucky that you didn't permanently brick it. |

10:07:39 | VoltageX_ | Llorean: here's something you can help with, try sending HEAD /daily/h300/rockbox-h300.zip to download.rockbox.org :D |
10:07:48 | Llorean | std|denis: On the H100? |
10:07:54 | std|denis | Llorean: how do you make a specific version? |
10:08:09 | std|denis | Llorean: H120 - to be correct |
10:08:17 | Llorean | std|denis: If you make a bootloader that can't load Rockbox or USB mode, then you have a brick, and it's final without hardware to fix it. |
10:09:32 | Llorean | std|denis: That's why we recommend AGAINST compiling your own bootloader for those. |
10:09:44 | std|denis | Llorean: yeah, i got momentary thought about a brick :) |
10:10:04 | Llorean | VoltageX_: Seriously, just have some patience and wait until someone who can actually fix things on the server side if something really is up can help you. |
10:10:13 | std|denis | but it going quite fine to USB-mode or to original firmware |
10:10:28 | Llorean | std|denis: The point is, you really shouldn't experiment with the bootloader. |
10:10:34 | VoltageX_ | ok ok. I shouldn't have had the second coffee |
10:10:37 | VoltageX_ | sorry |
10:11:49 | std|denis | Llorean: i couldn't held down my horses ;) its my fault |
10:12:50 | std|denis | Llorean: going back to your remark about "specific version". isn't it just a make of bootloader source code? |
10:14:09 | Llorean | std|denis: Yes, that is then tested by someone who can recover his device if something doesn't work properly with that version of the code. |
10:16:08 | std|denis | Llorean: is there a description of the recovering process for H1xx? just curious. i'm a software dev, but have a good friend, who could help me with hw |
10:16:24 | Llorean | You need a BDM wiggler. |
10:17:01 | Llorean | I'm not really sure what the process is to manually rewrite a working ROM though, or whatever exactly is necessary to get it working. |
10:17:19 | Llorean | I'm curious why you're so eager to write your own bootloader. |
10:17:43 | std|denis | in any way i got what i wanted - shutting down at USB disconnection ;) but these unexpected features making me think about the "ways to go back" :) |
10:18:26 | std|denis | i hate that rockbox turns on at the end of usb-mode "session" |
10:18:55 | std|denis | it's not my bootloader, it's just a little tweak - only one line of code |
10:19:20 | Llorean | Yeah, but you took a big risk that the current h100 bootloader was even functioning. |
10:19:52 | Llorean | There have been times where it hasn't been in a suitable condition, for one reason or another. |
10:20:11 | Llorean | But, it worked out. |

14:40:47 | hahaha | k thx |
14:40:49 | [RG]Reaper | Menu looks a lot different, like the database bit |
14:41:19 | markun | [RG]Reaper: yes, that's one of the most visible changes (quite recently) |
14:41:51 | [RG]Reaper | It's a welcome change, I always forgot where to go to update all the tracks on it. |

14:43:58 | hahaha | whts the size of a 3min video |
14:44:10 | [RG]Reaper | Depends |
14:44:15 | markun | it depends on the bitrate |
14:44:19 | pixelma | but when your bootloader is from 1 year ago - you'd have to update it too, but the install/update procedure has become a lot easier |
14:44:19 | [RG]Reaper | On resolution, sound quality, bit rate |
14:44:32 | markun | [RG]Reaper: only on bitrate I would say :) |
14:44:53 | [RG]Reaper | Fair enough, Rockbox has flac support doesnt it? |
14:44:58 | markun | yes |
14:45:03 | hahaha | should i just update my ipod and start from 0 |
14:45:44 | markun | hahaha: I believe there is now a tool to do the bootloader upload for you |
14:45:58 | markun | pixelma: do you have an ipod? |
14:46:06 | [RG]Reaper | Hmm, this is annoying, what gig to remove on my ipod to put 1 flac album on.. |
14:46:15 | markun | :) |
14:46:32 | markun | [RG]Reaper: you can always encode the flacs to something else for listening on your ipod |
14:46:41 | [RG]Reaper | True, winamp shuold do it. |

14:48:41 | hahaha | k..thx whts the diffrence between ipod color and ipod color boot |
14:49:08 | markun | one is rockbox, 'boot' is the bootloader |
14:50:09 | markun | [RG]Reaper: if you are talking about the ipod video HW EQ, it only supports bass and trebble |
14:50:32 | [RG]Reaper | Ah.. |
14:50:52 | [RG]Reaper | Hmm, if I get the albumart patch.. will it pick up on album art already on my ipod? |
14:50:56 | pixelma | markun: no I don't |
14:51:05 | markun | [RG]Reaper: no |
14:51:34 | [RG]Reaper | no point in that then |
14:51:40 | markun | [RG]Reaper: it is used to display a bmp file in the directory of the files you are playing |
14:52:18 | [RG]Reaper | ah |
14:52:23 | [RG]Reaper | That could be usefull then |
14:52:26 | Soap | so it and Database view don't exactly go hand-in-hand if you are using the AppleDatabase file positions. |
14:52:47 | [RG]Reaper | When I get my pc back up and running I can clear all the music off my ipod and redo i it |
14:53:55 | markun | [RG]Reaper: yes, just make a nice directory structure to keep your files in, works very well. |
14:54:38 | [RG]Reaper | I will, means It'll be easier to use with PS3 aswell.. |
14:55:26 | [RG]Reaper | Whats the key presses to stop rockbox going into USB mode when your charging it |

17:52:52 | chrisjs169 | I dunno about the entire server, but the forum is down due to problems connecting to the database |

17:54:02 | markun | bigred84: what's the problem? |
17:54:47 | chrisjs169 | yay, the forums have returned |
17:55:07 | bigred84 | well, i have an h10 20gb that is runnig rockbox, i connect it to many computers and it works fine, i have even connected it to this computer before, but all of a sudden now when i connect it to this computer the computer completly freezes and i have to do a hard reboot |
17:55:46 | markun | wow, weird |
17:55:47 | Arathis | bigred84: how did you connect it? |
17:55:56 | Soap | connected directly to the computer, or through a hub? |
17:55:56 | bigred84 | in ums mode |
17:56:02 | bigred84 | directly |
17:56:08 | Soap | Do you have a powered hub avaliable? |
17:56:14 | Arathis | you have an usm device? |
17:56:15 | bigred84 | i have tried both front and rear usb ports |
17:56:32 | bigred84 | what is a 'usm' deivice |
17:56:43 | Arathis | *ums |
17:56:53 | bigred84 | oh, yes |
17:57:01 | bigred84 | well, i connect it in ums mode |
17:57:08 | Soap | I think a good (and easy) first check is to eliminate the "power draw leads to hardware fault" possibility by connecting the device through a powered hub. |
17:57:22 | bigred84 | are the rear ports of a computer powered |
17:58:41 | Soap | depends, |
17:58:45 | Soap | most likely yes. |
17:59:01 | bigred84 | i have been able to connect to this computer before, but now the computer completely freezes, i have also notice while booting my computer asks if i want to start in safe mode |

22:18:29 | valiant3400 | only problem is what when I delete rockbox.e200, it says databass error |
22:19:21 | valiant3400 | does anybody know what's going on? |
22:19:37 | nadd | Bagder, linuxstb im not looking for something to put in my pocket, a barebones board would do, i would just put it in some case and install it in the car |
22:20:04 | nadd | thats why i said cheap .. think of and mp3 player without an interface |
22:20:12 | Bagder | nadd: rockbox runs on players that are more than boards, but sure you can buy a broken one or similar |
22:21:03 | nadd | im thinking minimalistic .. |
22:21:05 | linuxstb | nadd: How do you plan on controlling it if there is no interface? |
22:21:37 | linuxstb | And do you just want MP3 playback, or other audio formats? |
22:21:56 | nadd | just mp3 .. |
22:22:16 | nadd | there must be some generic board, with no casing .. |

22:23:00 | JavaMan22 | does anyone know Dave Chapman personally? |

22:23:22 | JavaMan22 | WHERE |

22:23:26 | JavaMan22 | DOES HE LIVE |
22:23:31 | linuxstb | Here. |
22:23:32 | valiant3400 | What is the sansapatcher, and where may I find this? |
22:23:34 | Soap | if you are willing to invest the time, you can buy a iPod mini, take the main board, and resell the screen, HD, battery, case, and touchpad on ebay for twice what you paid. |
22:23:38 | JavaMan22 | ok |
22:23:41 | JavaMan22 | im going to name a cirt |
22:23:42 | JavaMan22 | city |
22:23:49 | JavaMan22 | and you must tell me if im right or wrong |
22:23:51 | nadd | Soap, hmm .. |
22:23:53 | BenKolodny | how do i get permission to write |
22:23:55 | JavaMan22 | ok? |
22:23:57 | linuxstb | JavaMan22: I live in London. |
22:24:00 | JavaMan22 | ooo |
22:24:06 | JavaMan22 | wrong person then |
22:24:21 | JavaMan22 | my high school guidance courselor is David Chapman |
22:24:33 | JavaMan22 | i was wondering if they were same person haah |
22:24:34 | linuxstb | valiant3400: Follow the install instructions in the manual, and that links to the sansapatcher downloads for various platforms. |
22:24:45 | hardeep | ick, nested functions |
22:24:52 | nadd | ok people, thnx for the great work on rockbox .. |
22:24:53 | | Quit nadd ("Leaving") |
22:25:06 | Bagder | hardeep: I agree on the ick |
22:25:52 | valiant3400 | I wish to uninstall, I should still find it in install instructions |
22:26:02 | linuxstb | valiant3400: Yes. |
22:26:09 | hardeep | it's breaking the mac simulator... better to fix on mac side or remove nested function? |
22:26:29 | BenKolodny | sorry to ask again but how in the world do i get persmission to write so i could attach something in the rockbox twiki |
22:26:32 | linuxstb | valiant3400: But the Sansa uninstall instructions only work if you installed Rockbox with sansapatcher originally. |
22:27:30 | linuxstb | BenKolodny: Done. |

22:34:46 | valiant3400 | hmm the store I'm going to after bit doesn't sell IAudio or IRiver players, just IPods and a few sansas. does rockbox speech and access to recording and things work ok that anybody knows? I couldn't get my player's voice to be loud enough for me to hear it easily and it wouldn't get loud enough for me to understand the music I was listening to |

23:03:08 | linuxstb | (I had drafted an almost identical reply) |
23:03:50 | webguest00 | I don't own any of the archos targets but when I compile them they ask for the memory size, Says 2mb is defult, But it then goes on to make a compressed "image" or whatever it is, IS this normal? or should I select a larger memory size? |
23:04:01 | Bagder | its normal |
23:04:13 | webguest00 | wow you read that fast |
23:04:16 | Bagder | they have a rather narrow maximum limit of the binary size |

23:04:30 | Llorean | linuxstb: I mean it's just a case of Sansa users being very, very, very eager (hence the number of "bricks" earlier on) but it bore saying for sure. |
23:05:23 | linuxstb | Llorean: The anythingbutipod forums seem full of tutorials and unofficial installers as well, but I see both you and Bagder are posting there. |

23:05:44 | Bagder | yeah, when I feel bored enough |
23:06:20 | Bagder | most of what they ask there is already answered on the site or in our forums |
23:06:49 | Llorean | linuxstb: I have a bookmarks folder called "places to watch out for" that opens tabs in several forums just so I can try to keep things from getting too bad in the areas outside my control. :) |
23:06:49 | | Nick Stalwart_ is now known as Stalwart (n=stalwart@ip-10.154.Home-Lan.fastnet.lv) |
23:06:51 | linuxstb | I was wondering why our own Sansa forum was so quiet - it seems abi is the place to be for Sansa users... |
23:07:09 | Bagder | its like the MR for sansas |
23:07:14 | Llorean | Mostly just to try to keep tabs on wildly improbably descriptions of how things work, etc. |
23:07:20 | Llorean | improbable. |
23:07:52 | Llorean | For example I heard Rockbox's iPod battery life was worse because unlike the original firmware, we load files instead of using a database, so we have to seek the file out every time. :) |

23:09:28 | Llorean | Fortunately, those targets don't require flashing, it's just an added bonus. |
23:10:11 | linuxstb | Llorean: What's in your list of places to check? I'm guessing misticriver.net, anythingbutipod, mygigabeat, ilounge? |
23:10:36 | Llorean | linuxstb: Actually, mygigabeat wasn't in it, just because I haven't noticed too much gigabeat related noise in our forums yet |
23:10:42 | JavaMan22 | what the |
23:10:49 | Llorean | I've got ilounge, anythingbutipod, misticriver, and iaudiophile. |
23:10:52 | JavaMan22 | the elephant dream i downloaded is only 11 minutes??! |
23:11:06 | Llorean | JavaMan22: "Short Films" aren't often that long. |
23:11:23 | JavaMan22 | i thought i was getting full version? |
23:11:34 | JavaMan22 | >:o |
23:11:35 | Llorean | That is the full version. |
23:11:38 | Soap | that is a full length version of a "short film" |
23:11:40 | Llorean | Elephant's Dream is a short film. |
23:11:41 | midgey | JavaMan22: rebuffing isn't implemented |
23:11:48 | Llorean | midgey: Elephant's Dream IS 11 minutes. |
23:11:55 | midgey | but yes, elephants dream is short |
23:11:59 | midgey | llorean :) |
23:12:12 | JavaMan22 | ... |
23:12:15 | midgey | i was thinking it was around 15 minutes |
23:13:02 | Soap | 10:53 |
23:13:05 | linuxstb | It's 653.8 seconds - so just under 11 minutes... |

23:13:27 | midgey | i guess thats what i get for not checking ;) |
23:13:44 | * | linuxstb has started work on rebuffering |
23:13:49 | * | Llorean cheers |
23:13:51 | midgey | \o/ |
23:13:52 | JavaMan22 | what is rebuffering? |
23:14:04 | linuxstb | Mainly just to stop people asking about it... |
23:14:08 | Llorean | I figured. |
23:14:13 | webguest00 | I need some testing done on a shell script that I made |
23:14:21 | Llorean | You do realize as soon as you've got rebuffering it'll be seeking, and then playlisting... |
23:14:24 | Soap | both the 128 pixel wide versions and the 160x96 version have a chance of fitting w/o rebuffering on 32MB targets. |
23:14:29 | linuxstb | Llorean: Exactly... |
23:14:40 | midgey | then speed on coldfire... |
23:14:46 | linuxstb | And people will always be asking for MPEG-4/xvid/divx/whatever support... |
23:14:48 | Llorean | Yep |
23:14:49 | webguest00 | allows a person to choose up to 9 builds to make |
23:15:09 | Llorean | We've got a Summer of Code applicant who's expressed interest in WMA, by the way. |
23:15:40 | linuxstb | Good. I don't think it will be that hard - but it's time-consuming and requires someone with motivation. |
23:15:42 | midgey | and he's got the know-how and experience? |
23:16:00 | webguest00 | at the top of my website http://007quick.googlepages.com/home |
23:16:06 | JavaMan22 | how about speeding up rockbooy :) |
23:16:17 | Llorean | midgey: A lot of it falls more in the "determination" category than anything else, I believe. |
23:16:19 | webguest00 | please try it out! |
23:16:29 | webguest00 | I need comments on how to make it better |
23:16:39 | Llorean | JavaMan22: Speeding up Rockboy is a rather low, low priority in my opinion, it's hardly in line with the core focus. |
23:16:47 | * | midgey wonders if he should apply to SoC |
23:16:54 | Llorean | Though there is an applicant who's expressed interest in Rockboy work |
23:17:13 | Llorean | midgey: It looks likely that four applicants will get through on our project |
23:17:26 | Llorean | Google's supposed to be accepting 800 students divided among 132 projects, with varying numbers to each. |
23:17:45 | Bagder | the 4 is just want I have asked for |
23:17:45 | midgey | Llorean: whats the chance that applicant is interested in finishing up dynarec? |
23:17:50 | Bagder | what I |
23:18:04 | linuxstb | And the students get about $5000 each? |
23:18:05 | Llorean | Bagder: With 800/132, 4 seems likely. |
23:18:08 | Llorean | linuxstb: 4500 |
23:18:11 | Bagder | ah true |
23:18:11 | Llorean | Minus taxes. |
23:18:33 | midgey | there was a user who was looking for amiconn. he seemed interested in Viewpoints. Idk if he was planning on applying |
23:18:36 | Bagder | Llorean: but otoh, I doubt all the applications are equally good spread over all projects |
23:18:42 | JavaMan22 | Llorean what is the core focus |
23:18:48 | linuxstb | That's a fair amount of money from google - $3.6m |
23:18:52 | midgey | music :) |
23:18:58 | Llorean | midgey: He's more interest in a few more screen scaling modes (the ability to have the image fullscreen, and slide the viewport on smaller screened targets) and I think volume control in-plugin. |
23:19:10 | Llorean | JavaMan22: Audio functionality. Rockbox is a music player.. |
23:19:16 | JavaMan22 | oo |
23:19:38 | JavaMan22 | well i downloaded rockbox to have cool things |
23:19:40 | Llorean | Bagder: Yeah, well I imagine larger / better known projects like OpenOffice or Firefox will get more assigned students. |
23:19:46 | JavaMan22 | if i wanted to listen to music i can do that already! |
23:19:48 | Soap | isn't WMA an exception? Shouldn't even (*shudder*) Doom come before WMA? ;) |
23:19:57 | Bagder | Llorean: I think so too |
23:20:06 | midgey | Llorean: hmm, that probably wouldnt be a ton of work actually |
23:20:10 | Llorean | JavaMan22: Well, that's your choice. But that's not what the project's about. Rockbox can play music better than almost any MP3 firmware out there. |
23:20:26 | Llorean | midgey: After he's done that, he wants to port Scorched Earth. His application is more of a general "game improvement" kinda thing. |
23:20:34 | Llorean | Or rather a scorched earth clone. |
23:20:47 | midgey | i see |
23:20:51 | Llorean | Bagder: I think though, that getting four isn't all too unlikely, though I guess we'll known after the 26th. |
23:21:18 | mattzz | Hm, is there a special point when battery_bench writes to the battery_bench.txt file? |
23:21:21 | JavaMan22 | ooo |
23:21:36 | Llorean | mattzz: At any disk spinup, I believe. |
23:21:47 | Llorean | Or at any disk spinup after 30 minutes has passed? |
23:22:14 | mattzz | Hm, at power down after a long time, there are no further entries. |
23:23:03 | midgey | just curious, but why is album art a SoC project? hasn't Nico_P done a lot of work on that already? |
23:23:23 | midgey | once Metadata on buffer is done, it will probably require a rework anywya |
23:23:27 | midgey | *anyway |
23:23:38 | linuxstb | midgey: I would agree, AA isn't a SoC project by itself. |
23:23:53 | Bagder | midgey: people apply for what they want |
23:24:02 | Bagder | we can't stop them to do it for aa |
23:24:39 | Llorean | We need more people to click the "I'm willing to Mentor" button on projects, very very soon |
23:24:53 | mattzz | Llorean: http://pastebin.ca/408545 |
23:24:58 | Llorean | The reason "Album Art" is above the line despite its overall evaluation is because at least someone has agreed to mentor it. |
23:25:24 | Llorean | mattzz: You interrupted the benchmark several times? |
23:25:42 | mattzz | Llorean: it was running the whole day, inbetween is stopped the pluging, did a shutdown. Resumed, started plugin, 2h running, powerdown (without stopping the plugin first) |
23:25:54 | mattzz | s/is/I/ |
23:26:07 | Bagder | "I haven't even tried this myself (maybe Dan will, he seems to be the first to try any crazy idea someone comes up with," / MrH (speaking of some fun i2c hacking and hw mod on the sansa) |
23:26:30 | | Nick Everybody is now known as Everybody|away (n=everybod@harpo.demon.co.uk) |
23:26:41 | Llorean | Bagder: What kind of HW mod? |
23:26:56 | Bagder | pulling the data line on the i2c bus to the ground |
23:27:00 | Llorean | mattzz: I dunno. It may have something to do with how the Sansa decides to write it, since there's no disk to actually spin up. |
23:27:11 | webguest00 | Will anyone test my script? |

23:28:03 | webguest00 | I will make a forum in the getting started and compiling section! |

23:39:03 | webguest00 | another question: Is it possible to make a shell script executable by default? Like when people download a script from my website it is not executable by defualt, Can I change this? |
23:39:11 | Bagder | no |
23:39:19 | webguest00 | too bad |
23:39:23 | Llorean | webguest00: Part of the whole security concept of linux lies within that limitation. |
23:39:31 | webguest00 | ya i know |
23:40:16 | Llorean | If the people providing the files could override it, it'd negate even having that there. |
23:40:54 | Bagder | webguest00: this may sound a bit harsh, but your build script is waaaaay more complicated than it would need to be |
23:41:43 | linuxstb | webguest00: You could put your script inside a .tar file |
23:43:13 | linuxstb | Who actually decides on the successful students? Us or google? |
23:43:41 | Bagder | google I believe |
23:44:00 | | Part decayedcell_ |
23:44:05 | linuxstb | So we could end up with projects/students we don't really want? |
23:44:13 | | Part JavaMan22 |
23:44:38 | Bagder | hm, not if they don't have a mentor I guess |
23:44:40 | linuxstb | But I guess that if no mentors step forward for a project, then that student can't be accepted. |
23:44:52 | Bagder | and possibly they would need a certain score or something, at least not negative |
23:45:25 | webguest00 | Bagder: How is it way more complicated? |
23:45:35 | Llorean | It says that : 6. Google allocates a particular number of student slots to each organization 7. Students are notified of acceptance |
23:45:39 | Llorean | It doesn't say who notifies them. |
23:45:55 | webguest00 | linuxstb: or a zip file? for the non linux users? |
23:45:56 | Bagder | webguest00: my script that builds all daily builds is less than 200 lines (perl, but still) |
23:46:00 | Llorean | It may just be that google allocates a set number of students and the project administrators get final acceptance. |
23:46:12 | linuxstb | webguest00: No, zip files don't store file permissions (afaik). |
23:46:24 | webguest00 | linuxstb: stupid |
23:46:39 | Llorean | But I imagine we want to have the 4 student we want most with the highest 4 scores, with mentors assigned, by the 26th |
23:46:59 | linuxstb | webguest00: But windows users don't need an execute bit set... |
23:46:59 | Bagder | Llorean: I believe we can add mentors and score them etc even after the 26th |
23:47:23 | webguest00 | Bagder: It wouldn't be hard to make it do all "my" builds but my script will do any build |
23:47:27 | scorche | i was reading, and it appears that google chooses who gets accepted from a ranked list that we send them |
23:47:54 | Bagder | webguest00: well, my script obviously does that too |
23:48:23 | webguest00 | linuxstb: for those who use cygwin they would not have a .tar extractor, or would they? |
23:48:24 | Llorean | scorche: A ranked list, but not the same as the evaluation list. It says clearly google doesn't take into account the "scores", though perhaps it does take into account their position in the list. |
23:48:29 | Bagder | webguest00: its just that you use a lot of repeated calls and specific words all over instead of more functions and variables |
23:48:56 | scorche | Llorean: it was something about how much we value those projects that the students put forth and rank them on that value |
23:48:56 | Bagder | but hey, as long as it works and fulfills a purpose |
23:48:57 | Llorean | webguest00: I can extract tars on windows no problem. I have about four utilities, two of which are very, very common, that can do it. |
23:49:19 | Llorean | scorche: I think the order they appear on the evaluation page is what will be considered "rank" but I'm not sure. |
23:49:25 | webguest00 | Badger: Did you actualy try the script? |
23:49:30 | Bagder | no |
23:49:36 | webguest00 | Llorean: good to know |
23:49:47 | Bagder | I have dozens of these scripts already, I don't need any new one ;-) |
23:50:53 | webguest00 | Bagder: it gives a text menu and you can select up to 9 builds then it executes them I set up all the directories to reduce the build time in the future and so that other people could use it easier |
23:51:11 | Bagder | I know, I read it |
23:51:24 | Llorean | Bagder: It says applications without a mentor assigned "cannot proceed in the program", so I think we may want to assign some by the 26th, even if we have to swap them out later. |
23:51:52 | Bagder | assigned by the 26th? |
23:52:03 | Llorean | Bagder: I'm not sure, it doesn't say a date there. |
23:52:06 | Bagder | it seems a little odd if the last application appears on that date |
23:52:22 | Llorean | Bagder: I assume there's a separate deadline for mentor assignment. |
23:52:29 | * | Llorean goes to find that timeline again |
23:52:31 | | Nick Everybody|away is now known as Everybody (n=everybod@harpo.demon.co.uk) |
23:52:46 | scorche | Everybody: stop chanign your name to |away |
23:52:49 | scorche | changing |
23:52:52 | Llorean | Ah, we have until April 11th |
23:52:56 | Llorean | So another two weeks |
23:53:03 | Llorean | We get plenty of time to discuss. |
23:53:16 | scorche | Bagder: well, i was planning on submitting my app on the 26th (there are a few things i need to figure out first) |
23:53:22 | Bagder | well, at april 11 the list accepted students is published |
23:54:20 | scorche | perhaps, we should be asking these questions on #summer-discuss on SlashNet |
23:55:18 | Llorean | I think asking "What steps should we as a project make to be sure the applications we're most interested in get accepted, as the 'ranking' process is slightly unclear. Is it just the top X in the evaluation/applications list page?" is a good idea. |
23:56:18 | Bagder | http://groups.google.com/group/google-summer-of-code-discuss could be a good place as well |
23:56:41 | scorche | well, i am in the channel now |
23:57:01 | * | scorche goes about asking Llorean's question |
23:57:11 | scorche | unless, you wanted to yourself |
23:58:00 | Bagder | Llorean: btw, the deadline _was_ extended from the 24th so it wasn't just my drugs ;-) |
23:58:21 | Llorean | Bagder: "We simply tell the orgs how many they get" apparently |
23:58:27 | Llorean | http://groups.google.com/group/google-summer-of-code-discuss/browse_thread/thread/cf46c13c49bbbd33/b814f8eafd3881d1?lnk=gst&q=rank&rnum=3#b814f8eafd3881d1 |
23:58:42 | Llorean | All proposal review and ranking is done by the organizations themselves. |
