00:34:36JdGordonnot really...
00:35:22JdGordonI'm going to reaarange things a bit.. i tihnk gwps should be just the music screen, while -cmmon is more for drawing stuff, which i tihnk is close
00:35:36*JdGordon doesnt like the name wps which is being used for the theme engine
00:35:41kugelisn't the wps only drawing?

00:47:14*amiconn wonders what's up with gcc
00:47:36amiconn"suggest parentheses around arithmetic in operand of |" wth?
00:47:55amiconnOperator precedence is well defined there...
00:48:43saratogai guess they figure bitwise stuff is rare enough that explicitly defining precedence is sensible
00:49:44amiconn& takes precendence over | the same way * takes precedence over + in arithmetic
00:49:55JdGordonjust because op precendence is defined, doesnt mean they follow it correctly :)
00:50:39saratogai'm sure they follow it they probably just assume many people dont remember
00:51:29amiconn...and hence they force knowing people to clutter their code with useless parentheses? .\
00:52:03*amiconn also found another arm gcc goof in the disassembly of that stuff
00:53:59Unhelpfulugh, so many useless parens, it does it for >>/<< and + as well

01:06:29 Part toffe82
01:10:54pixelmafirst reaction: not really because of more typing and might look weird for subimages in bitmap strips but haven't thought about this much. Of course you would be able to adress more than 52 but that's also a limit I didn't hit and is probably not so important anymore since bitmap strips

01:13:17LloreanI think it's something not to worry about for now, unless WPSes end up becoming a lot more complex.

01:55:16Unhelpfulamiconn: what for, greylib?
01:55:32amiconnNo, for simulating backlight of colour targets
01:55:45soapa text editor with contextual colouring would make WPS code more readable. "Proper names" for images would make some WPS lines ungodly long.
01:56:07amiconnI now have a patch (it's just a few lines) that dims the image to 1/3 when simulated backlight is off

01:56:43Unhelpfulah... it would seem usable for greylib as well, you could have the background solid in the "off" color, the foreground solid in the "on" color, and put the grey values in the alpha channel

01:58:24Unhelpfulcan you blend 8-bit images to a truecolor surface?
01:58:55amiconnYes, but only using a single alpha value for the whole source surface

05:05:21saratogaEvanCarroll: you should probably look at the Fuze and Clip, since they're newer sandisk players with active ports

05:07:50AlkaSeltzerwill flashing an ipod nano with rockbox still enable it to be used with an FM transmitter designed to plug in through the docking port?
05:08:05LloreanAlkaSeltzer: That depends on the FM transmitter.
05:08:16scorchewe dont flash ipods, and that depends on the transmitter as he said
05:09:45AlkaSeltzerOK thanks
05:10:08AlkaSeltzerwhen you say we, do you mean those that are talking now, or speaking for the channel?
05:10:25saratogahes talking about rockbox
05:10:28LloreanRockbox isn't flashed to install it on an iPod
05:10:34LloreanIt's just installed to the disk / internal storage.
05:10:42AlkaSeltzergotcha
05:15:02EvanCarrollsaratoga: by active you mean in development and not supported −− It doesn't matter much to me, which player it is, I just want to buy a working player
05:15:24saratogaEvanCarroll: I mean someone is actually working on a port
05:15:37saratogaif you want to buy a working player, buy a supported one
05:15:51EvanCarrollis there a support producting flash player?
05:16:03EvanCarrollproduction*
05:16:05LloreanNo.
05:16:22EvanCarrollright, which is why I wrote a letter to sansa.
05:18:20EvanCarrollfuze looks decent, I prefer long over fat
05:18:38saratogaand why I pointed that sandisk isn't going to care :)
05:19:28EvanCarrollabout rockbox in general, or about rockbox on the view as compaired to the fuze?
05:19:44LloreanBoth really.
05:20:32saratogai was mostly thinking of the later, since they stopped updating it almost a year ago
05:20:41EvanCarrollwhich is their perogative, but pestering them and showing them presence, and a willingness to buy their product if they comply is still the only way you can change that.
05:21:21saratoga"hey, about that product you no longer care about, here are some thoughts ..."
05:22:08EvanCarrollI'm not disputing addressing the View over the Fuze was a mistake, I'm just saying keeping quite will surely accomplish nothing.
05:22:48LloreanWell, Sandisk has more or less already shown us how (un)willing they are to help out.
05:22:49saratogagenerally complaining isn't preferable to doing nothing
05:23:00saratogaif you want a port, get to work, otherwise, doing nothing seems sensible
05:23:24ChrononAny ideas why mkamsboot is throwing this: "[ERR] Model name "clip" not found in bootloader.bin"?
05:23:49saratogaChronon: I think i got that when i feed it the wrong bootloader file
05:24:08EvanCarrollsaratoga: I can do database, I can do high level scripting languages, I can do some C −− I've never done any asm, and I don't have the slightest clue on how to write a driver.
05:24:56saratogaEvanCarroll: I wasn't really asking, just pointing out something
05:25:03EvanCarrolland when it comes to private companies supporting open source, bitching is *always* preferable.
05:25:07Chrononhmm. . . I definitely chose the clip in the configure script
05:25:11saratogaChronon: I think its the .sansa file not .bin ?

09:08:00amiconnI'm undecided which method for determining the remote screendump filename is better:
09:08:15amiconn(1) Clone and modify the main screendump filename. Makes it clear which dumps belong together, but risks overwriting old remote dumps in certain situations (at least on targets w/o RTC).
09:09:25nm_Hey people
09:09:40nm_I think I might have bricked my Gigabeat S
09:09:54amiconn(2) Determine the remote screendump filename independently. No risk of overwriting, but also no strict relation between main & remote screendump name (again mostly affects non-RTC targets)
09:10:10nm_After flashing a dual boot nk.bin, it rebooted to recovery mode
09:10:38nm_It goes until it asks to connect to a PC, where it doesn't recognise that it's plugged in.

09:11:49linuxstbnm_: You need to run sendfirm (or the Toshiba updater) to install an nk.bin again.
09:13:12nm_I can't because neither the gigabeat, nor my computer recognise that it's plugged in

09:19:03nm_Okay, I don't have Rockbox working, but at least the original firmware works again
09:19:28linuxstbnm_: Which version of the original firmware are you running?
09:20:03nm_I've got no idea, whichever one came in the ISO on the wiki
09:20:15nm_I used mknkboot with a bootloader I compiled from svn
09:20:29nm_And sent it with sendfirm
09:20:40nm_I'm going to repeat the process with this new, working usb cable
09:22:52nm_Gah
09:22:59JdGordonamiconn: is there any reason the screenshots actually need to be "linked" between screens?
09:23:39nm_Same problem I had yesterday, I've sent the modified nk.bin, unplugged the USB cable, it reboots, the bar fills, but it stop on the windows mobile screen
09:28:01amiconnJdGordon: What do you mean? I think that linked filenames make it easier to determine which main & remote dumps belong together. On non-RTC targets, screendumps are numbered. But if you main screendump files 0001 and 0002 already lying around, doing another dump would give you main dump 0003 but remote dump 0001 if they're not linked
09:29:26JdGordonyeah, but its fairly easy to figure out which is the one you want by either looking at it, or the file dates...
09:29:29amiconnAnd on target I don't see another way than taking both dumps at once. We only have one signal to trigger screendumps. What would be possible though is to select which screens should be dumped on usb detect: main, remote, or both. This selection would then forbid the filenames to be linked though
09:29:56JdGordonna, thats extra complication, I wouldnt bother
09:30:07amiconnJdGordon: On non-RTC there are no real dates (only on target of course)
09:30:20JdGordonwe could use the current tick for the filename instead of the number...

09:34:54linuxstbamiconn: What about using new names, something like "XXXXX_main.bmp" and "XXXXX_remote.bmp", with the same number/date ?
09:35:50amiconnFor date it's easy, but not for number. It would require to check both names with a given number for existence to not risk overwriting a dump
09:36:25amiconnThat's my concern in (1) - of course there would be a part which determines main and remote dump (in either case)

09:38:07GodEater_that's a better idea imo
09:39:16amiconnIt'd be either very difficult, or require to switch to 16 bit dumps for mono/grey displays as well. It would also look crap

10:49:57nm_daily isn't a command, and substitute dir with ls
10:50:34nm_mind linking the article?

10:51:07cool_walking_I think it's just talking nonsense, so I'm gonna blow it away.
10:51:25nm_It didn't make much sense to me either
10:51:42nm_I'd suggest following the guide on setting up cygwin, and wing it from there
10:51:57cool_walking_I'm not following it, just editing it to make it make sense.
10:51:57nm_If you have a basic idea on how to compile a package
10:52:01nm_Ah

11:02:09cool_walking_Well I don't have access to Cygwin right now, but I think I can do alright from memory, and what's there currently is useless anyway.

12:05:05BigBambi*think
12:05:34robin0800BigBambi: I know but what time ?
12:05:47BigBambirobin0800: 06:00 UTC IIRC
12:05:59kadobanBigBambi: isn't that what they are? the page even says that they "may be buggy or unusable"
12:06:17B4gder06:00 CET actuall
12:06:20B4gdery
12:06:35robin0800BigBambi: Could that be added to the page?
12:06:36BigBambikadoban: That very usually isn't the case, and normally the first thing we do is tell people to use the current build
12:06:45BigBambiB4gder: Half right then :)
12:07:19B4gderyeah, and they take perhaps an hour so the last ones are done at 06:00 UTC! ;-)
12:07:24cool_walking_The current page pretty much says that anyway. It (inexplicably IMO) advocates the Daily Build over the Bleeding Edge. I'd think the Daily Build would have more chance of having a bug, because Bleeding Edge could already have fixed it.
12:07:29BigBambiThe daily build is only useful for archiving and on the rare occasion when the current build is broken (and normally only for 5 minutes)
12:07:41cool_walking_"that" being "use this at your peril"
12:07:56gevaertscool_walking_: that doesn't follow...
12:08:29BigBambirobin0800: Why does it matter?
12:09:38gevaertscool_walking_: any single revision has the same chance of being broken. Since the daily build is not hand-picked in any way the probability of it being broken is exactly the same as that of the latest current build
12:09:53BigBambiExactly
12:10:14robin0800BigBambi: Easy to see what has changed since it was built, though now I know its 06.00 I can do it
12:10:15cool_walking_Well if it's the same I'm going to prefer Bleeding Edge, because it has more features.
12:10:23BigBambiAnd a broken current build is usually fixed very quickly
12:10:29B4gderwell, doing the maths correctly actually not all have the same risk...
12:10:34BigBambirobin0800: Why are you using the daily build anyway?
12:10:41B4gderbut perhaps I should shutup ;-)
12:12:42BigBambicool_walking_: This is my point, I don't understand why a) anyone uses the daily build over the current build (unless at that exact time the current build is broken - rare) and b) why it says anywhere to use daily over current build - it shouyldn't
12:12:44robin0800BigBambi: I don't Perhaps now we have release perhaps we don't need daily any more Use Release or Current?
12:12:49BigBambi"it" being the site
12:12:59BigBambirobin0800: It has been like that for ages
12:13:08BigBambiWe have always said use current not daily
12:13:26BigBambiThe release doesn't change that

14:03:20pixelmakadoban: minor nitpick about the manual section - the line breaks in the long \opt lists lead to some buttons not showing up in some manuals (e.g. "Up" in the X5 manual) you would need to escape the line breaks as explained here http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/LatexGuidelines#Include_Exclude_sections .

16:13:10rob_why could this happen?
16:17:54PaulJam_rob_: this usually happens when the theme is broken. If you want to fix it you find the current wps tags here: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/CustomWPS

16:36:25GodEater_well if there are problems with the shipped themes, we'd definitely like to fix those

16:36:55GodEater_"inconsistent navigation" ?

19:17:01bertrikhow would a player be able to automatically recalibrate its battery discharge curve?
19:17:19bertrikI noticed this on MrSomeonesTodoList
19:18:20bertrikI have serious doubt about whether automatic recalibration is possible at all with most targets and I couldn't find anything about it in the IRC logs of the past weeks
19:18:33bertrik*week
19:21:02jaykayi would say doing some benches and updating the curves is better...
19:21:46jaykayalso self-recalibration is not worth the effort+wasted power
19:22:30LloreanThe idea is to do it so that the curve stays up to date as a battery gets older, I think.
19:22:38LloreanBasically, allow someone's player to keep their own personal curve up to date.
19:23:06 Join JdGordon [0] (n=jonno@rockbox/developer/JdGordon)
19:23:27bertrikbut as far as I understand a normal bench is done with a more or less constant current or power drain under controlled circumstances
19:24:13bertrikwith normal use, I think you can't make a reliable graph because you don't know how much current is consumed at all times

19:43:14amiconnbertrik: Automatic recalibration is an idea I want to see implemented (for targets where it makes sense). I do think that it is possible
19:43:52saratogaself calibration should be possible by recording how long it takes to get between percentiles, and adjusting the curve until the times are equal
19:44:37amiconnWe don't know the exact current at all times, but we're estimation current, and of course automatic recalibration wouldn't change everything in a single discharge cycle - it would average
19:44:44amiconn*estimating
19:46:43bertrikok, I thought the MrSomeone to do list was a limited list of things already discussed (which doesn't seem to be the case) and with at least some kind of theory of operation. I was afraid the list was turning into some kind of private request tracker.

19:47:36amiconnMy recorder starts warning me about low bat when there are still several hours of runtime left
19:47:48bertrikFor it to work at all, the target has to have some kind of way of estimating the power drain I think.
19:48:19amiconnNiMH is especially difficult: Voltage is falling slowly during discharge, and it's also temperature and brand/model dependent
19:49:10amiconnbertrik: Rockbox knows the boost status, whether the disk is spinning or not, whether the backlight is enabled, which brightness it is at etc
19:49:57amiconnThat will make a sufficiently precise estimation.
19:50:36amiconnThe curve doesn't need to be exact, but right now it's almost unusable on some targets (also depending on the age of the battery etc)
19:54:00amiconnThe current current estimation function ignores a lot of this data, btw
19:54:05*kugel wonders if semi-automatic would work too, as in read-in the current battery-bench.txt

21:25:08kugelI'd rather rename this, so it's clearer that it's not having an effect if backlight is set to off entirely, and have lamp use its own way
21:25:10Lloreankugel: So which plugins will be broken by changing it?
21:25:22LloreanWhat's the point in suggesting we rename it if you don't even know which plugins use it yet...

21:34:28Lloreankugel: Maybe you could just do a cleanup on those players where it makes sense to honor their settings.

21:34:57low_lightQball: near current svn ;)
21:34:57kugelfml: it's about targets where the screen is readable without backlight. Why should mpegplayer not operate on that without backlight?
21:35:05Qballdoes not apply for me
21:35:08jaykaylinuxstb: really...? headphone socket?
21:35:09Lloreankugel: On those mpegplayer isn't visible without the backlight.
21:35:28kugelwhy?
21:35:37Lloreankugel: The screen is only readable in moderate-to-high contrast situations. Moving images like mpegplayer don't really qualify in the vast majority of cases.
21:35:44low_lightQball: what fails
21:35:51 Quit nibbler_ (Remote closed the connection)
21:35:53pixelmaLlorean: the greyscale ones and e.g. the m200 could work without but I don't think anyone would ever want it
21:36:10kugelLlorean: that's probably why the mpegplayer has his entirely own backlight framework anyway
21:36:23BigBambipixelma: What do you think to relegating manual installation to an Appendix, or a link to the wiki?
21:36:34Lloreankugel: Which could probably be removed if "force" did what it was intended to instead of being broken
21:36:41linuxstbjaykay: Yes, we have "plugs" and "sockets" (or at least I do...)
21:37:11linuxstbjaykay: A "jack" is something you use to lift a car up...
21:37:12kugelLlorean: why should it be removed? It allows you to run mpegplayer with max brightness without the need to change the global settings everytime you watch a video

21:37:48fmlBTW: shouldn't the backlight=OFF setting be disabled for players with black screens without backlight?

21:38:26 Quit YoShimitZu ("CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)")
21:38:31Lloreankugel: Well maybe plugins should just generally have their own backlight controls. Then people can set for themselves which plugins are always on, and which ones are readable enough without it.
21:38:42LloreanBut the solution is to fix the plugins.
21:38:52kugelsure
21:38:57jaykaylinuxstb, bigbambi: jack was used in the manual... and my (oxford) dictionary says "connection betweens two pieces of electronical equipment", so it would be right
21:39:01LloreanMeanwhile "force" should be honored as "forcing" so that existing plugins can force the backlight on when it's necessary for their use (mpegplayer, lamp primarily)
21:39:10BigBambipixelma: Well I think I'll seperate it all out anyway, so it can be in the future, plus to give automatic more promenence now
21:39:13jaykayit also doesnt say its american english
21:39:24BigBambijaykay: it isn't, it just isn't clear
21:39:27Qballlow_light: hmm let me try again on clean checkout
21:39:39jaykaybigbambi:ok ill use socket....
21:39:41bertrikQball, it may help to go back to the svn version that the patch was made for, apply the patch (which should go in cleanly), then update back to current svn
21:39:53Qballwhat version was it made for
21:39:58kugelLlorean: and all the other plugins should only keep it on if backlight is not entirely set to off
21:40:18linuxstbjaykay: Is "socket" meaningless to you? (and what's your native language?)
21:40:32jaykaybigbambi: also line-in socket?
21:40:38BigBambiyes
21:40:43jaykaylinuxstb: no, german
21:40:47jaykayok
21:40:57Lloreankugel: That sentence doesn't make sense. Force would ignore "off"
21:41:04 Quit oeoeo ("Lost terminal")
21:41:09bertrikQball, you should be able to find the version by looking at the text of the patch itself
21:41:11pixelmaBigBambi: unfortunately there is some info which is important on some targets only in the "manual installation" section and not very present in the Rockbox Utility (e.g. having to plug the charger to finish bootloader installation on the Iaudios, stuff like that)
21:41:17kugelhence the _force_on_unless_off thing I proposed
21:41:24Lloreankugel: A true force is necessary. So if you renamed "force" to something else, you'd just have to replace it anyway. So why not just create the something else.
21:41:25BigBambipixelma: I plan to move that
21:41:35low_lightQball: I'm at v19954, but I don't think that file has been changed recently
21:41:42BigBambipixelma: So that automatic is complete
21:41:57kugelLlorean: I already suggested that....
21:41:57Lloreankugel: "Instead of "force_on_unless_off" maybe something like "ignore_backlight_timeout" so it stays on, unless set to off.

21:45:57Lloreanpetur: Is "force backlight on" supposed to *always* force it on, or force it on unless the backlight is specifically set to "off" in the normal setting?
21:46:04eusseDo you have any link where I can read more about licensing and legal stuff?
21:46:23low_lightQball: does patch like need a line return at the end diff? it wasn't in my paste.

21:46:44Qballstill fails
21:46:46jaykaybigbambi: ok, thanks
21:46:47Qballlet me see on what
21:46:55Lloreanpetur: "LAMP" uses the force backlight enable function, but right now if you have backlight set to "off" it's black, otherwise any other backlight timeout value and it works.
21:46:57BigBambieusse: If it just about licencing in general, google is a good start
21:46:58kugelcurrently it doesn't kick the backlight on if you disabled it in the global setting
21:47:00jaykayeusse: a manual, at the end of it
21:47:35peturforce should probably always force it on
21:47:47pixelmaLlorean: same happens with the buttonlight (maybe it was already mentioned, didn't follow your discussion closely)

21:48:24kugelno matter what it's supposed to do (the name indicates that it should even ignore backlight off, I agree), most plugins should not change the current behavior, and thus be fixed
21:48:34Qballthere is no raw download on that page

21:49:13Lloreankugel: That's an incorrect statement.
21:49:26kadobanjaykay: that's the license for the manual, look lower on the page, i believe it has a copy of the GPL
21:49:27Lloreankugel: Most plugins on the current majority of targets *should* force it on if they need it.

21:49:51kugelI don't see why
21:49:58peturkugel: this was introduced for plugins wher having the backlight always on makes sense
21:50:18Lloreankugel: What's the point of not turning it on if the plugin can't be used or exited without being able to see the screen?
21:50:28jaykaykadoban: you were right, thanks
21:50:30kugelif you have backlight off, you'll want to save energy in plugins too (if the backlight isn't entirely necessary for the plugin to work)
21:50:30Qballlow_light: thanks that works
21:50:45Lloreankugel: On most color targets the backlight is 100% necessary for all plugins.

21:51:50kugelif someone has backlight off on a target where the screen isn't readable without backlight, he doesn't want to run plugins
21:52:01Lloreankugel: So fix the specific plugins ifdeffed for those targets.
21:52:10Lloreankugel: You're more than welcome to go through the whole plugin list and determine which ones are usable on which targets.
21:52:11kugelthere's no sense in that anyway, unless you're blind and don't benefit from backlight
21:52:31LloreanRight now though it's better to err in favour of "can't be used" rather than saying "I hope it can be used, but hey, they can guess where the exit button is, right?"
21:52:37kugel#ifdef the targets?
21:52:40kugelwhy that?
21:52:50LloreanIt needs to be target specific...
21:52:56kugelit doesn't
21:52:59LloreanYes, it does.
21:53:09amiconnmeh
21:53:11LloreanThere are plenty of targets where the screen is unusable without a backlight.
21:53:21peturkugel: just watch out what you change, this hase been thought of before, don't change the whole thing like that
21:53:26petur-e
21:53:29kugelignoring timeout is totally fine. You're not going to reach the plugin without backlight OR don't benifit from backlight at all, if you can't read the screen
21:53:29LloreanBut at the same time, people may use voice most of the time because they keep the player in a bag and use a remote.
21:53:33amiconnfirmware/general.c isn't as general as one might think :/ It's (currently) swcodec specific

21:54:37LloreanSo they DO benefit from backlight, but don't require it to be on to get there.

21:57:32 Quit merbanan (Remote closed the connection)
21:57:32Lloreankugel: Simply put: You may not choose to use the backlight in the UI, but still need it in plugins, so it needs to be fixed on a case by case basis for target and plugin by someone who can actually look at the screen.
21:57:47LloreanUntil then, "better safe than sorry" means it should turn it on if there's uncertainty, rather than leaving it off if there's uncertainty.
21:58:07kugeland so I suggested to have the force ignoring off too for plugins were it's necessary

22:01:37fmlkugel: I could probably agree with you if the backlight on/off were a separate setting and the backlight timeout a separate one. Then the func would just overwrite the timeout but not the ON/OFF setting. But this is one setting, and the purpose of the func is solely to ignore it.
22:02:27kugelfml: or, have backlight_force_on() and backlight_ignore_timeout() as suggested several times.
22:02:33Qballlow_light: ?
22:02:38Qballlow_light: what info to give you
22:03:13kugeli.e. rename the current function, and make a new which ignores everything (or fix the current one, and make a new which ignores the timeout only, choose what you like)
22:03:16low_lightQball: you in the debug touchpad screen?
22:03:25Qballyeah it crashed gimme a sec :D
22:03:26fmlkugel: yes, but plugins use "force on", hence the authors are aware of what they're at.
22:03:45kugelI still think that most plugins don't necessarily need backlight, even if some more than lamp only need it due to edge cases
22:03:58LloreanMost of the current uses of "force on" are correct. One would have to go through with actual hardware and determine on a case-by-case where "ignore timeout" is actually useful.
22:03:58Qballlow_light: ok
22:04:01Qballlow_light: am there
22:04:11Lloreankugel: And I've told you several times now, you're absolutely WRONG about that.
22:04:14LloreanIt's not an issue of opinion.
22:04:50LloreanThe only time you don't need a backlight to use a plugin is if you're one of the mono targets, or one of a very, very small selection of color targets.

22:05:04low_lightQball: Select "View raw packets" then press and hold the touchpad buttons

22:05:54kugelwhat about greyscale?

22:07:29Qballwhen using the slider I see the 2nd block go up and down depending if I go up or down
22:08:36Qballwhen I press prev/next button I often see packet 2 appear
22:08:37low_lightwhat's the first byte in the packet?
22:08:44Lloreankugel: And old iPods, sorry.
22:09:00Qballlow_light: from left to right or right to left?
22:09:04Lloreankugel: Mono targets can unilaterally be given the "ignore timeout" safely
22:09:12LloreanBut as I've said, color targets need a case-by-case basis.
22:09:16low_light2 packets will appear for some, that's normal
22:09:25kugelfml: ok, so ignore what I said. Llorean convinced me that it's a bug. We probably don't want ignore_timeout (as it would be hardware specific anyway)
22:09:35low_lightQball: left to right
22:09:46Lloreanignore_timeout would be useful, but would require a lot of note taking first.

22:13:10kugelm:robe 100
22:13:13amiconnImo backlight_force_on() should force it on, on all targets. The only other option would be to handle each plugin individually - but those functions were made to avoid that...

23:45:03kugelI didn't figure how to reproduce, it happens quite often though
23:46:01amiconnAt the top or at the bottom?
23:46:08 Join JdGordon_ [0] (n=jonno@rockbox/developer/JdGordon)
23:46:11kugelso, and I'm trying to reproduce the data abort in add_handle with logf, but unfortunately the memory isn't big enough to add the beginning of the 6th song of the playlist that certainly crashes
23:46:18kugelamiconn: bottom
23:46:32kugelit overlaps with the ret 9
23:46:37JdGordon_is the sim broken? im getting "incomplete installation" after doing make install
23:50:00amiconnkugel: weird
23:50:05kugelthat sucks...
23:50:22 Quit MethoS (Remote closed the connection)
23:50:34kugelso I'm lucky to find a playlist to trigger a data abort, and now I can't logf with it :/

23:52:08bertriktalking about data aborts, isn't it possible to show more information during an exception? like the contents of the link registers (or possibly just all registers)?
23:52:19JdGordon_anyone have any ideas why the sim would complain about incomplete install.. and not being able to open the files browser but the cabbie icons are sll shown!
23:53:45kugelthe data abort doesn't seem to happen w/o dircache and load to ram
23:54:25kadobanJdGordon: sim seems to be working for me, from latest svn (only tried e200)
23:55:01kugelJdGordon_: messed with the file access rights?
23:55:14JdGordon_no, rights are all fine
23:55:22kugeltry sudo ./rockboxui :p
23:55:32kugelit's working here too (except for the mentioned backlight issue=
23:55:34kugel)
23:55:34JdGordon_same thing
23:56:19JdGordon_maybe its a fubar sdl install? no idea how to check that thouh
23:56:57amiconnkugel: There might be a bug in the clipping. The blitting won't show it, because it cannot blit outside the source surface area, but the blackfilling uses SDL_FillRect
23:57:23pixelmakugel: I don't use dircache or load to RAM but I guess turning on/off options that change buffer size might have some influence (the buffering crash)
23:57:36amiconnJdGordon: Maybe strace will tell you
23:57:50amiconnOr gdb
23:58:17kugelpixelma: well, decreasing the buffer made the data abort disappear (the 6th song isn't loaded into the buffer), but enlarging it too it seems (even though the 6th is of course loaded now)
23:58:17amiconnIt must be a problem with your installation though. Sim's working fine here
