15:23:27	dook	Possible issue with themes on flash storage modded 6th gen classic ipods
15:23:31	dook	https://www.reddit.com/r/rockbox/comments/1gboqta/weird_lines_on_freshos/
15:23:46	dook	Just two people reporting it so far
15:26:07	dook	One user switched back to a daily build from the 14th and the problem no longer happened
15:26:43	edhelas_	Oh wait ! I also got those on mine, another theme.
15:26:51	edhelas_	I though it was some screen issue.
15:28:52	speachy	specifics really matter −− build, storage details, etc. Having a hard time seeing how that's a storage issue, unless the file itself is corrupted.
15:29:47	speachy	ought to be easy enough to bisect and find out
15:29:56	dook	I'll get more details from the users
15:30:15	dook	I can't see anything specific in the themes themselves that stands out as the cause
15:30:48	dook	They're reporting that it's on current daily builds since the 14th
15:31:38	speachy	might be worth trying that test build I created too.
15:32:10		Part dook

15:33:38	dook	Do you have a link to that build?
15:34:17	speachy	https://www.shaftnet.org/~pizza/ipod6g-exp2.zip
15:34:37	speachy	master as of yesterday plus the ATA patches I have in gerrit.
15:34:53	dook	Perfect, thanks
15:35:02	dook	Do they just merge that with their .rockbox folder?
15:35:16	speachy	I'd suggest backing up .rockbox and then unzipping this. Just in case.
15:36:48	speachy	((all of this work was motivated by trying to determine why a couple of CF cards worked fine on the 5g but corrupted badly on the 6g)
15:37:28	dook	Recommended it to them to try
15:37:39	dook	I'll update here when they respond
15:41:37	speachy	the salient change I expect to make a difference is is backing off from UDMA4 to UDMA2.
15:42:21	speachy	since that is incredibly sensitive to the cable/signal quality.
15:43:59		Quit chris_s (Quit: Client closed)
15:44:59	speachy	oh, and improved battery life with SD card mods.
15:45:24		Join chris_s [0] (~chris_s@2a09:bac3:2cfa:1282::1d8:1fd)
15:50:18	edhelas_	speachy I could try with my imCort adapter, will it corrupt my musics ?
15:50:57	speachy	unlikely, but I can't make promises since I have no way to test this myself.

16:26:13	user890104	speachy: should there be any difference on a stock hdd 120gb ipod6g?
16:26:45	speachy	there _shouldn't_ be. (as in, if there is, that's a regression)
16:27:52	user890104	i mean, as in improvements, or it's exclusively for the modded storage ipods?
16:29:01	speachy	...there may be a slight performance drop from the UDMA4->2 drop
16:29:22		Join chris_s [0] (~chris_s@2a09:bac2:2840:2c8::47:594)
16:29:32	speachy	but functionally, real HDDs don't need all the workarounds and gyrations we need for those buggy SSDs.
16:38:46	user890104	i see, thanks
16:39:18	user890104	did you have time to look at the git tree, that I was keeping up to date until last year?
16:40:12		Quit jacobk (Ping timeout: 276 seconds)
16:45:13	speachy	for HDDs, it more aggressively powers down (7s timeout vs 20s) so you may see a small battery life boost.
16:45:35	speachy	I want to say that I did, but I don't remember any of the specifics now.
16:55:10	user890104	well, i'm mostly wondering how to keep the nano3g/4g code up to date with the recent changes, and if I should start the port as a new branch, or try to resurrect/fix the old one
16:55:52	user890104	the last time i got stuck on the STORAGE_RAMDISK issue, and left it there

20:57:27	Mode	"#rockbox +v speachy" by ChanServ (ChanServ@services.libera.chat)
20:58:14	speachy	munkis: See if you can successfully generate a build from the account that your builder runs under? All I know is that the builder reported a "permission denied" error to the server
20:58:45	munkis	huh, not the error I expected, I will investigate.
20:59:11	speachy	dook: I saw, but that tells me... nothing. I want debug info, showing the build id and a few select lines from the disk info screen.
20:59:50	speachy	other things that need doing. dosfsck/chkdsk, validate checksums of the theme files on disk, etc.
21:00
21:01:13	speachy	if the only reported problem is "some theme elements are visually corrupted" (but the files on disk are ok) then it's more likely that there's been another bug lurking that this uncovered.
21:02:31	speachy	might be the permissions of the rbclient.pl script itself
21:07:31	munkis	huh looking at the local logs it seems that starting 10-07 i have been getting a permission denied error from the server on the upload step.
21:09:32	speachy	the change on the 7th was moving all of the 'sdl' targets to 'sdl2'
21:13:16	munkis	for some reason i get assigned a lot of sims, the few builds before all say no upload. however I do have sdl2 installed on uzziyah (and have for months)
21:13:40	speachy	do sdl2 builds _work_?
21:14:47	munkis	give me a minute to test, all sim builds should be sdl2?
21:15:05	speachy	yep
21:15:17	speachy	everything non-device is now, basically
21:15:23	speachy	the 'sdl' target has been retired.
21:15:35	speachy	well, deprecated at least. nothign uses it any more.
21:22:38	munkis	what else was sdl besides the sims?
21:23:06	speachy	if the sims build, so will the rest
21:23:24	speachy	checkwps, dbtool, warble, and probably forgetting some other stuff
21:25:34		Join jacobk [0] (~quassel@47-186-105-237.dlls.tx.frontiernet.net)
21:35:48	munkis	ok sdl2-config is the source of the permission denied. Time to investigate why
21:48:53	munkis	looks like maybe $CC isn't set
21:49:06	munkis	but that wouldn't only affect me. hmm
21:53:30		Quit Moriar (Ping timeout: 276 seconds)
21:54:03	***	Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
21:56:18	munkis	editing sdl2-config to directly call gcc makes it work. do you mind sharing the contents of sdl2-config from taster?
21:58:39	speachy	if you run 'sh -x /path/to/sdl2-config' what happens?
22:00
22:00:10	speachy	it's generated as part of the SDL2 build. I have the standard Fedora packages.
22:01:38	munkis	usage info :)
22:03:11	speachy	so.. sdl2-config −−libs does..?
22:03:17	speachy	(and run as the builder user)
22:03:26	munkis	I got those results by adding -x to sdl2-config directly. I have the standard Debian packages which seem to assume that by the time you are calling sdl2-config you already have $CC set. replacing <"$CC"> on line 61 with <gcc> works for me, I was curiousif you distro has different defaults
22:04:06	speachy	I don't have any reference to CC in mine
22:08:56	speachy	https://www.shaftnet.org/~pizza/sdl2-config
22:17:18	speachy	dook: the theme files are standard .bmps too, so even without checksums they'd be easy enough to validate using the builtin imageviewer or whatever one has on their computer.
22:17:41	munkis	just needed to update, Debian shipped a fix recently
22:18:36	munkis	checks for CC and if not present assumes no cross-compile (which does seem a bit dangerous)
