00:09:49ulmutul[Saint]: (re: mouse pointer for ballerburg) This solution is so bluntly obvious, that I completely overlooked it :D
00:10:42*ulmutul thought of red blinking rectangles as cursor, that can be switched between the cannons

11:40:29dima_hey guys, i have a little problem. i think something might be wrong with my charging port on both my ipod 5.5gs, and i cannot get any pc to recognize that its plugged in (it chirps, but it doesnt show up in drives, and after 30 seconds it disconnects, and then itunes tells me it discovered it.)
11:41:08dima_so i was wondering, is there a way to install rockbox software on an empty CF card through an adapter to my pc, and then mount the CF card in my ipod?
11:44:07wodzdima_: Ask [Saint] - he will know
11:44:56dima_thanks, ill try that
11:46:17gevaertsOn PP ipods that's possible, yes
11:46:43gevaertsWell, I'm not sure how hard our tools try to prevent you doing that, actually :)
11:47:15dima_what's a PP ipod
11:47:33dima_sorry, i'm pretty new to all of this. this would be my second attempt to even use an ipod.
11:47:43gevaertsOne with a PortalPlayer chip in it, which means up to 5.5G, nano 1G, or the minis
11:48:06gevaertsMaybe it's also possible on the later ones, but I don't know those very well
11:48:20dima_i have two 5.5g ipods
11:48:56dima_is that a chip i have to buy and solder on?
11:49:00gevaertsNo
11:49:23gevaertsIt's basically the CPU the ipod is designed around
11:51:01 Quit dima_ (Quit: Page closed)
11:51:19 Join dima_ [0] (47ee5f61@gateway/web/freenode/ip.71.238.95.97)
11:51:35dima_ah. mine says PP3021C-TDF
11:51:42dima_so im assuming thats it then
11:52:19gevaertsHmm, no. That's a coincidence :)
11:53:11dima_which one's the CPU then? i really should know this, we're learning about them in my electrical engineering class now :/
11:53:31gevaertsOr maybe it is?
11:53:33*gevaerts isn't sure!
11:53:41gevaertsIpods (well, the ones I know/care about) come in three main generations hardware-wise. There's the 1g to 3g that have a PortalPlayer 5002 chip in them, there's the minis, the nano1g, and te 4G (all variants) to 5.5G that have a PP5020 or PP5022 in them, and the classic and nano2g and up that have a Samsung S5Lsomething in them
11:54:10dima_well, i'm pretty sure that they are 5.5gs so we're good there
11:54:19gevaertsActually, maybe? Are you sure about the 3? If it says PP5021 that makes perfect sense
11:54:21dima_they all had the search feature when the hard drives still worked
11:54:59dima_5021c my bad
11:55:05gevaertsI forgot the 21. The actual variants I'm aware of there are 5020, 5021, 5022 and 5024
11:55:08dima_hard to tell, its a little scratched up
11:55:10gevaertsThey're all very similar
11:55:29gevaertsAnyway...
11:57:43dima_so i've got it hooked up to a 2000 mah battery and using a tarkan adapter. it worked before when i had the hard drives but something failed on both of them at the same time. might have been a surge, the usb cable i had at the time was ancient and the wall connector was one of them 5 volt ipad ones. it sparked a bit and smelled burning, but was fine after a while
11:58:08gevaertsYou'd have to start by following https://www.rockbox.org/wiki/IpodManualRestore to get the CF card in a "normal" state, then I suspect you have to do a manual installation (i.e. using ipodpatcher, not using rockbox utility) due to it not being in an actual ipod
11:58:55dima_guess ill have to figure out how to install linux then
11:59:56gevaertsAll of that should work from a live CD as well, possibly in a VM
11:59:56dima_how do i tell what my byte sectors are?
12:00
12:00:13dima_i have a vm software with xp on it, actually
12:00:15gevaertsGo for 512
12:00:16dima_ill try that
12:00:33dima_any distribution you recommend?
12:00:53dima_i've only had a chance to run a few commands on some obscure unix server at school, and mint from a live usb
12:00:57gevaerts2048 is really only actually needed on the original 80GB drive (because it has firmware bugs that prevent 512 byte sectors from working)
12:01:16dima_i see. well, this is a 32gb CF card so ill go with the 512
12:01:46gevaertsIf you've used mint before, there's no reason to change for this
12:02:10dima_great, ill boot it up now
12:02:17gevaertsYou need dd and maybe fdisk. Every linux system will have those
12:08:23dima_hmm. its telling me this kernel requires x86-64 cpu but detected i686
12:09:07dima_i know my cpu is a 64 though
12:14:34dima_using the 32 bit, and it's telling me requires the following features not present on the cpu: pae
12:15:28dima_really weird, seeing as it worked before on the same pc
12:16:22dima_well, ill try some other distributions and let you know
12:16:49[Saint]Wait...just so I'm clear, not reading this wall of text:
12:17:02[Saint]If you don't have our bootloader, its not happening.
12:17:06[Saint]Do you?
12:17:30[Saint]You can put the FW on the storage any which way you want.
12:17:36[Saint]Useless if you can boot it.
12:18:15dima_i'm not sure i follow.
12:18:27gevaertsdima_: don't worry, I'm not sure [Saint] follows :)
12:18:36gevaerts[Saint]: the bootloader sits on the disk
12:18:49dima_is the bootloader some software i need to download?
12:19:01dima_the CF card is completely empty and freshly formatted
12:19:23[Saint]gevaerts: eh...kinda.
12:19:33[Saint]This is a 7g, no?
12:19:35gevaertsNo
12:19:37dima_5.5g
12:20:06[Saint]Ah.
12:20:23gevaertsdima_: the bootloader is installed by either ipodpatcher or rockbox utility. You don't have to download it separately
12:20:37dima_i see

13:55:08dima__so gparted says it made 3 partitions, 2 unallocated and 1 that is sdb2
13:55:15[Saint]My guess is that this may be some quirk of virtualization guest additions to do storage passthrough
13:56:24dima__is it important, or is that just something to check if it did the job

14:15:21dima__could it have anything to do with the "mbus base address uninitialized" error im getting whenever i boot the vm?
14:17:11[Saint]Possibly. Generally speaking I think it is pretty reckless to do low-level disk operations virtualized.
14:17:26[Saint]LiveUSB is your friend.

14:30:24dima__and is it going to ask me to plug it in to a computer? because i just realized i don't have a usb cable for this thing. i could go to walmart and pick one up though.
14:30:46Bilgusok or yes do save so Its Sel BL off >on select setting and save or don't save Thanks TorC ill look into it

14:46:52dima__[Saint]: alright, i got the usb
14:52:48dima__[Saint]: it did absolutely nothing new.
14:53:24dima__i put the CF card in, put the battery in, turned it on, and it didnt update the contents of its flash rom. it gave me a sad ipod
14:53:56[Saint]There's two possibilities there: 1. You goofed something. 2. Hardware is screwed up on a deeper level.
14:55:07dima__were the two other partitions aside from the main one supposed to be unallocated?
14:55:27dima__using dd on sdb1 (unallocated) ran the command just fine
14:57:22***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
14:58:35gevaertsThe first partition isn't unallocated. It has type 0
14:58:42gevaertsThat confuses some tools
14:58:44dima__huh.
14:58:49dima__well, its like this now http://imgur.com/a/OyBIl
14:59:08gevaertsWhat does fdisk show?
14:59:18gevaertsparted is one of the tools that's a bit confused about this
14:59:53dima__let me figure out how this command works
15:00
15:01:10dima__fdisk sdb doesnt do anything
15:01:16dima__no such file or directory
15:01:22gevaerts/dev/sdb
15:01:52dima__it returns command (m for help)
15:01:54gevaertsp
15:02:25dima__http://imgur.com/a/B7qGj
15:03:00gevaertslooks OK to me. Not sure about the boot flag, but I don't think it matters
15:03:13dima__thats weird because there are supposed to be three partitions not two
15:03:29gevaertsI've never seen a third partition on a FAT formatted ipod
15:03:32dima__the other is 1.88gb
15:04:18gevaertsIf you mean there's a block of 1.88gb that's not allocated, then yes. That's not in a partition though
15:04:31dima__ah
15:04:50dima__gparted said both were unallocated so i assumed.
15:05:00gevaertsYou should be able to resize /dev/sdb2 later on (possibly with parted) to make things fit, but I wouldn't do that until things actually work
15:06:07dima__should i just start over again then
15:06:15dima__should be a lot faster now that i know what to expect
15:08:00gevaertsWhat did you do so far? Put the MBR there (and look at it using parted and fdisk...), dd the firmware to /dev/sdb2?
15:08:14gevaertsAnything else that's more than looking or figuring out what didn't work?
15:08:29gevaertsSorry, dd the firmware to /dev/sdb1
15:08:38gevaertsDid you format /dev/sdb2 yet?
15:08:50dima__i did dd mbr.bin to dev/dsb
15:09:01dima__then i did hdparm -z dev sdb
15:09:15dima__that all worked after a lot of trial and error
15:09:34dima__then i did dd firmware to sdb1 (the 79mb partiton
15:09:42gevaertsok so far
15:09:59dima__finally, i formatted with gparted the big partition to fat32
15:10:03gevaertsok
15:10:24dima__then i went into bash and did sudo mkfs.vfat -F 32 /def/sdb2
15:10:27gevaertsThat should be enough to get the apple firmware to boot
15:10:45gevaertsThat last one should be exactly the same as what gparted did, but not an issue
15:10:46gevaertsHmmm
15:11:17dima__this guide assumes that my ipod is plugged in
15:11:34dima__it's not. im doing this to a CF card directly
15:11:34gevaertsWhat exactly did you dd? IIRC the firmware you download is zipped and needs to be unpacked first. I can't remember if the wiki pages makes that clear
15:11:44dima__yes, i unpacked it
15:12:30dima__dd if=Firmware-25.6.3 of=/dev/sdb1
15:12:34dima__exactly like that
15:12:45gevaertshmm, that all looks OK to me
15:13:31dima__let's see what happens if i plug the ipod into my pc
15:14:43dima__actually i just rememberd that itunes wont install correctly
15:15:03gevaertsI wonder if the ipod still tries to use 2048 byte sectors somehow. If it does, it's going to be annoying because there's no easy way to access the disk with 2048 byte sectors unless it's in the ipod
15:15:26dima__the procedure entry point jscontextgetglobalobject could not be located in the dunamic link library webkit.dll
15:15:47dima__is there itunes for linux?
15:15:50gevaertsno
15:16:06*gevaerts doesn't think itunes is needed in any way for anything at all, ever :)
15:16:24dima__same
15:16:35dima__when it had a hard drive i just used disk mode with rockbox
15:17:31dima__let me reinstall itunes though
15:17:36dima__i might have figured it out
15:19:53dima__there's really no reason to install 4 seperate apple programs just to run itunes....

15:30:10*gevaerts would try without itunes running at all
15:30:31dima__does the same thing
15:30:38gevaertsApart from that, who knows? Broken hardware, incompatible CF card, bad cable, ...?

15:31:45dima__well, i just bought this cable a few hours ago, and all my other cables are the same thing. incompatable cf card could be the cause, but when i bought it, the guys at head-fi said it was fine. broken hardware might be it, but it's weird that both my ipods have the same story

15:33:37dima__i bought both of these a few years ago though
15:34:19gevaertsok, so it's probably not basic hardware or the cable
15:36:12dima__out of curiosity, how hard would it be to build a simple circuit that would play my music from this card and just have it sit in my car connected to the aux?
15:36:29dima__cant be harder than this is becoming :/
15:37:03dima__then again, i suppose i could just get a sterio that takes sd cards for cheaper
15:37:38dima__but thats not the point. what i really want is the ipod enclosure and have it play music
15:38:44dima__i was supposed to meet a guy on craigslist this morning and buy his ipod for 30 bucks, he said it worked just had a broken battery, which i have a replacement for. that would have given me a conclution on whether my ipod's hardwares were broken

18:38:14Bilgusi'm not completely happy with how the selection menu works so that will probably get changed at some point but I haven't decided how i'll change it, I really don't like the idea of making the user unselect all their selected actions to disable and thats why it has the No-Yes prompt first Ive made it so if it is yes it goes directly to the action selection screen and then drops into the No-Yes menu after but that makes it difficult fo
18:38:39Bilgusm*enus
18:40:54Bilgusthe main problem is I don't have access to the button presses from within menus I wish menu callbacks recieved button presses in addition
18:42:03gevaerts__builtin: nuking malloc state as often as possible will help a lot to avoid fragmentation as well
18:46:07__builtinit just doesn't seem like the "safest" choice
18:46:27gevaertsWhy?

18:50:42__builtinturns out it's always my clipping code that's screwing up
18:50:46gevaerts__builtin: that may be bad news. The more games you have working, the less likely you are to actually work on the code! :)
18:51:05__builtinI've noticed
18:52:07__builtinby instrumenting the malloc and free functions, it seems that there are still a couple unfreed pointers when quitting a game
18:52:36__builtinbut the problem is I have no idea what they are
18:52:40gevaertsWell, yes, but are those pointers still reachable after the game?
18:52:45__builtinI have no idea
18:52:52__builtinvalgrind blows up with the sim
18:53:04__builtinso it's just a counter in smalloc()
18:53:05Bilgusup to you the fuzev2 is the one I'm really interested in since it has the scrool wheel
18:53:23gevaertsI'd assume those mallocs are game code, not UI code, so maybe valgrind on the linux version?

19:28:05lebelliumok

19:29:25lebelliumI thought you studied/worked in the UK then Germany
19:29:36pamauryi do
19:29:59pamaurybut saarbrucken is at the border
19:30:29Bilgushmm that is strange, can you try waiting a little longer after BL turns off before you try the volume and see if it makes a difference in FMS
19:30:42johnb2sure
19:32:21BilgusNM
19:32:24johnb2BL timer is set to 5s, Volume after 30s still turns the screen on
19:32:28Bilgusi see what the problem is
19:32:45Bilgusthe fuze keymap doesn't have a volume setting
19:33:11Bilgusit probably depends of fall through to context_std
19:33:22Bilgusthese corner case are killing me
19:36:52Bilgusactually it doesn't even have the action in Context_standard which is very odd IMO I guess they only cared about it in Context_wps
19:37:53*__builtin is having a weird crash in tlsf
19:38:42__builtinthe first allocation I do crashes when freed
19:42:25__builtingevaerts: I'd like to have a self-documentation feature available
19:43:58BilgusHmm I'll have to think about how to go through with this, either I go through and add the actions to all the keymaps where people excluded them or make the lookup go through Context_wps' lookup table if an action isn't found.. I find that incredulous but perhaps it has to do with the scroll wheel adding the button code from outside of Button.c
19:44:44BilgusThanks JohnB2 this is exactly why I wanted a real fuzev2 :)
19:45:37__builtingevaerts: since the actual games are monstrous already (puzzles.ovl is over 800K on target)
19:45:39Bilguswhen I get home tomorrow I'll ahve go through the sim and see if get_action ever returns a real action on the FMS
19:45:45*__builtin was thinking of having a separate "help" plugin
19:45:52johnb2My pleasure.
19:48:18__builtinso how do I load a plugin and then return from it to another plugin?
19:49:14BilgusI think i'll probably add something to fallthrough to Context_WPS' lookup on Action_unknown in FMS, I think that might also be why Pamaury + others had to use ACTION_SETTINGS_INC for their volume actions

20:46:17[Saint]high density magnet?
20:46:29[Saint]that's the lazy/blind engineer's best friend.

20:48:31pamauryclever :)
20:50:12pamaurydamn, putting the player back is tricky
20:50:33[Saint]ever since I mangled my wrist up and needed to switch from left to right handedness, I pretty much always keep a high density magnet on an extend-able pole thing withing reach when doing work like this.
20:50:52[Saint]I am forever dropping tiny, and not so tiny, screws.
20:51:07[Saint]gotta get 'em before the cat eats them.
