00:00 < mnemoc> .gem is no longer the default format on t2-trunk
00:00 < mnemoc> but yes, the idea is also to replace mine
00:00 < madtux> good
00:01 < morfoh> what about RAT ? "Rotten Application Trashcan" :)
00:01 < mnemoc> we want to make a library extending libtar to simply use .tar.{bz2,gz,lzo}

00:38 < morfoh> cu :)
01:03 * _Lewellyn read scrollback...
01:03 < _Lewellyn> someone proposed the name "sam"?
01:03 < madtux> _Lewellyn: mnemoc did.
01:03 < _Lewellyn> :(
01:04 < _Lewellyn> it would be a clash of names with not only NT, but with HP-UX as well :(*
01:04 < madtux> u are american... i guess u probably like it.
01:04 < _Lewellyn> i don't like heavily confusable terms
01:04 < madtux> :P
01:04 < madtux> good.
01:05 < madtux> i want simple name.. but i can't think of one yet
01:05 < _Lewellyn> it's the security thinger on nt/xp, and an administration tool on HPUX
01:05 * _Lewellyn doesn't want to have to remember which sam he's dealing with :)
01:05 < madtux> well i have to admit sam is a bit better spam
01:05 < madtux> :)
01:05 < madtux> even though spam is funny.
01:06 < _Lewellyn> how about "crack"? :)
01:06 * _Lewellyn attempts humor
01:06 < morfoh> :d
01:06 < morfoh> :D
01:06 < morfoh> crack-get
01:08 -!- sparc-kly|Univ [n=mubex@66-50-123-218.prtc.net] has joined #t2
01:21 < _Lewellyn> yes :)
01:21 < _Lewellyn> you'd smoke the packages :)
01:22 < _Lewellyn> then whore them off the system...
01:22 < _Ragnar_> rxr: !
01:22 < morfoh> smoke-get
01:22 < _Lewellyn> ok, enough of that. its humor would be bad.
01:22 < _Ragnar_> == 16:10:44 =[1]=> Building editors/nvi [1.79 2.2.0-alpha].
01:22 < _Lewellyn> gar. ooo is up to almost 6 hours.
01:23 < _Ragnar_> fl_wrapper.so: write outside basedir (/usr/src/t2-64): /usr/share/vi/catalog/dutch
01:23 < _Ragnar_> ...
01:42 < _Lewellyn> also, i recommend against the name smit... before someone suggests that ;)
01:45 < jsaw> sdeam (speak steam)
01:46 < jsaw> tamtam
01:47 < morfoh> jsaw: atm. after reviewing the ML thread I'd vot for your "sde" proposal
01:51 < jsaw> samt (german for velvet)
01:51 < jsaw> morfoh: hehe
01:53 < mnemoc> rehi
01:54 < jsaw> hmmm, maybe some more C_2H_5OH,... and a few more proposals :P
01:54 < jsaw> hi mnemoc
01:55 < morfoh> wb mnemoc and finally good night ... perhaps I
01:55 < mnemoc> :)
01:56 < morfoh> 'll dream about some proposals
01:56 < jsaw> :)
01:58 < jsaw> sic (SDE Integrated Config)
01:59 < morfoh> mnemoc: seems that pkg_vserver.conf causes some troubles
02:00 < mnemoc> morfoh: what troubles?
02:02 < morfoh> mnemoc: it seems that the links are outside of the build root
02:02 < mnemoc> jsaw: what's wrong with sam?
02:02 < morfoh> mnemoc: ask _Lewellyn :)
02:02 < jsaw> 01:05 < _Lewellyn> it's the security thinger on nt/xp, and an administration
02:02 < jsaw> tool on HPUX
02:03 < mnemoc> who cares? ;)
02:03 < _Lewellyn> mnemoc: the name is already used for a "real unix"'s system tool :)
02:04 * _Lewellyn doesn't like overloading names :(
02:04 < mnemoc> a dead unix system :)
02:04 < madtux> cal it "lupe"
02:04 < _Lewellyn> actually, hpux 12 is pretty sweet
02:04 < madtux> call*
02:04 < jsaw> I actually thought the same, but under the influence of previously mentioned chemical compound... I couldn't resist regurgitating a few other acronyms...
02:04 < mnemoc> finding very unique names, short and easy to remember is imposible
02:04 < _Lewellyn> not impossible; just requires imagination
02:05 < _Lewellyn> an apt task for us, pardon the pun
02:05 < _Lewellyn> (and the incorrect grammar, utility of words)
02:06 < morfoh> mnemoc: seems that I don't have /etc/runit/1.d/ and friends
02:07 < morfoh> mnemoc: I guess the changes you did on runit are not merged yet
02:07 < _Lewellyn> are foodstuffs good targets for names? or will that keep everyone hungry?
02:07 < jsaw> sum (SDE Unified Management)
02:07 < morfoh> sum sum :)
02:07 < _Lewellyn> sum (1) - checksum and count the blocks in a file

02:08 < _Lewellyn> i like it otherwise
02:08 < jsaw> suma

02:09 < _Lewellyn> SDE Unified Management and Maintenance *mumble mumble*
02:09 < _Lewellyn> night morfoh
02:10 < madtux> mmm.
02:10 < madtux> mmh..
02:10 < madtux> i don't know damn it
02:10 < _Lewellyn> tis too long.
02:10 < _Lewellyn> but it's a warm thing to type :)
02:10 < madtux> lets just call it... IT
02:10 < morfoh> SMART "SDE Management *Random* Toolkit"
02:10 < _Lewellyn> (17:10:42) mjl@tuffet$ whatis it
02:10 < _Lewellyn> it: nothing appropriate
02:10 < madtux> "get-IT"
02:11 < _Lewellyn> i like it
02:11 < _Lewellyn> good marketing slogan: "We've got IT!" :)
02:11 < madtux> good point.
02:11 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: indeed
02:11 < _Lewellyn> madtux++ :)
02:11 < madtux> holy!...
02:12 < madtux> mnemoc: ?
02:12 < _Lewellyn> rxr: you have input on "it"?
02:12 < madtux> it can't get any more simple than that
02:12 < _Lewellyn> no, IT cannot :)
02:12 < madtux> hehe
02:13 < jsaw> ?
02:13 < _Lewellyn> too bad the commands will be poor grammar :(
02:13 < jsaw> "s"
02:13 < jsaw> :p
02:13 < madtux> jsaw: come on.
02:13 < mnemoc> morfoh: you have to merge runit changes from trunk to 2.1 to be able to use that feature of mnemosyne
02:13 < mnemoc> madtux: pong
02:13 < madtux> mnemoc: scrollback
02:14 < madtux> what do you think about "IT" ?
02:14 < madtux> get-it ... search-it ... remove-it ...
02:14 < mnemoc> i thing 'it' clash much more
02:15 < madtux> "We've got IT!"
02:15 < madtux> why?
02:15 < jsaw> it is nice, but again the PR problem, IT^2 sounds a bit arrogant...
02:15 < madtux> _Lewellyn: u think it sounds arrogant?
02:16 * madtux is glad to have a marketing freak around
02:16 < jsaw> and the cli gurus won't like it...
02:16 < jsaw> it damn
02:16 < _Lewellyn> i am not a marketing freak, but i like it.
02:16 < _Lewellyn> and i try to only use the cli...
02:17 < jsaw> apropos it
02:17 < jsaw> ups...
02:17 < _Lewellyn> heh. don't
02:17 < _Lewellyn> use whatis :)

02:34 < jsaw> SMOP
02:34 < _Lewellyn> hm. that wouldn't be evil enough. needs a # in it... and a $
02:34 < mnemoc> %acronym stfw

02:42 < mnemoc> :)
02:43 < jsaw> I only know 110 (police) and 112 (fire+ambulance)
02:44 < jsaw> there's an extra number for ambulance, but I can't remember these _5_! digits
02:44 < mnemoc> o.o
02:45 < jsaw> but remembering two is enough anyway...
02:46 < jsaw> mnemoc: I haven't heard a better name than "sam" until now. I'd go for it even if some other systems use it.
02:46 < mnemoc> :)
02:49 < mnemoc> what mr. core architect has said about the topic?
02:50 < _Lewellyn> i still prefer it.
02:50 < _Lewellyn> how about "sadist" :)
02:50 < _Lewellyn> (prefer "it" that is)
02:51 < mnemoc> *-it means lot of sbin/ things, other names imply a single sbin/ and lot of lib/
02:53 < jsaw> rxr is busy with archivista... I think we'll simply have to take him by surprise

02:55 < madtux> _Lewellyn: i doub i have any voice on this... and i know i definitly don't have a valid vote
02:55 < madtux> on the other hand u and mnemoc are whole different story
02:57 < mnemoc> any t2 user/developer/watcher has vote right
02:57 < _Lewellyn> i'm more of a watcher at the moment, myself ;)
02:57 < _Lewellyn> woo. ooo died again :(
02:57 < madtux> i am a watcher wannabe
02:57 < madtux> :)
02:57 < _Lewellyn> after 6 1/2 hours.
02:57 < madtux> _Lewellyn: release the anger
02:57 * _Lewellyn deselects ooo and gets on with life
02:58 < madtux> or that..
02:58 < _Lewellyn> i'll try again another day
02:59 < mnemoc> _Lewellyn: what now?
02:59 < mnemoc> _Lewellyn: 2.1 or trunk?
03:01 < _Lewellyn> mnemoc: it takes more than 5gb to build. and i don't have that free until after i upgrade
03:01 < _Lewellyn> on 2.1

03:31 < mnemoc> hi keinek
03:31 < keinek> hi mnemoc
03:32 < _Lewellyn> ok. i forgot how to get it to not look for the binary file for something that i deselected...
03:33 < mnemoc> -remove
03:34 < _Lewellyn> Cleanup -remove? or Build-Target?
03:35 < mnemoc> Create-ErrList
03:35 < _Lewellyn> too many scripts ;)
03:38 < _Lewellyn> !> Binary file for ooo-1.9-m123.gem not present. Skipped in package database.

03:38 < _Lewellyn> :(
03:41 < _Lewellyn> does the config name come before or after -remove?
03:41 < _Lewellyn> though neither seems to work...
03:44 < mnemoc> ehm
03:44 < mnemoc> Create-ErrList -cfg crap -remove ooo
03:45 < _Lewellyn> ok.
03:45 * _Lewellyn really should write himself a cheatsheet :)
03:46 < mnemoc> :)
03:46 * _Lewellyn DCCs mnemoc a jamba juice
03:47 < mnemoc> jamba?
03:47 < _Lewellyn> www.jambajuice.com :)
03:47 * _Lewellyn is drinking an acai eye-opener

04:51 < _Lewellyn> Create-ErrList -cfg stylistic -remove ooo dbus
04:51 < _Lewellyn> that should remove both ooo and dbus, no?

05:10 -!- menomc is now known as mnemoc
05:13 < _Lewellyn> welcome back
05:41 < mnemoc> :)
05:42 < _Lewellyn> so, i have choices for cups, lprng, and none
05:42 < _Lewellyn> are there any other print systems in t2 at the moment?
05:43 < mnemoc> i don't want every package on mnemosyne
05:43 < _Lewellyn> i also tested that ooo forces the printing to cups even if you selected lprng.
05:43 < mnemoc> only those _really_ needed
05:43 < _Lewellyn> though i'm wondering the wisdom of that
05:43 < _Lewellyn> ok :)
05:43 < _Lewellyn> i'm also not sure how i can tell it to force cups if printing is none
05:44 < mnemoc> #Forced: PRINTING=cups
05:44 < mnemoc> servers may want lprng, but desktop is sadly tight to cups
05:45 < _Lewellyn> ok. i couldn't think of a good reason for ooo to require cups, so...
05:46 < mnemoc> ooo require every crap invented in the world
05:46 < _Lewellyn> i gathered :(
05:46 < mnemoc> it _needs_ tcsh!
05:46 < _Lewellyn> yes.
05:46 < _Lewellyn> and i bet they also include the source for it so it can have its own version embedded.
05:47 < mnemoc> take a look into ooo.conf
05:47 < _Lewellyn> i did.
05:47 < _Lewellyn> i had to... a few times... :(
05:47 < mnemoc> writting it was a big pain :\
05:48 < _Lewellyn> i don't think my patch caused any harm, btw. i just can't get it to build due to disk space constraints
05:48 < _Lewellyn> i'll do another svn diff for you later.
06:00 < mnemoc> *yawn*
06:01 < _Lewellyn> mnemoc: don't go yet :(
06:01 < _Lewellyn> mnemoc: i don't like this output :(
06:04 < mnemoc> ?
06:05 < _Lewellyn> mnemoc: one moment. scping the other file
06:05 < mnemoc> remember to make the diffs against trunk
06:05 < _Lewellyn> i'll have to ask how when the time comes
06:06 < _Lewellyn> http://romonster.greenviolet.net/~lewellyn/t2/26sep05/
06:08 < _Lewellyn> http://romonster.greenviolet.net/~lewellyn/t2/26sep05/regressions/stylistic/log/5-dbus.err.txt
06:09 < _Lewellyn> that one is worrisome
06:09 < _Lewellyn> as is the build.log
06:11 < mnemoc> parallelism?
06:12 < _Lewellyn> i should add [F] NOPARALLEL to that, too?
06:12 < mnemoc> try
06:12 < _Lewellyn> k
06:13 < _Lewellyn> can i ignore the excess .gems in case i turn them back on?
06:13 < _Lewellyn> (i think it's all ooo related)
06:13 < mnemoc> rm them
06:13 < _Lewellyn> ok. even the var/adm stuff?
06:14 < mnemoc> -remove removes all but cache
06:14 < mnemoc> then you remove by hand .gem and cache
06:14 < _Lewellyn> ok.
06:14 < _Lewellyn> and i won't have to rebuild anything?
06:15 < mnemoc> -remove only which are now disabled
06:15 < _Lewellyn> that's Cleanup, right?
06:15 < mnemoc> nope
06:15 < mnemoc> Cleanup removes src.*
06:15 < _Lewellyn> gar.
06:15 < mnemoc> builddirs of failed builds
06:15 < _Lewellyn> too many scripts! ;)
06:16 < mnemoc> you get used to it ;)
06:16 < _Lewellyn> Build-Pkg?
06:16 < mnemoc> never
06:16 < mnemoc> it's internal-only
06:17 < mnemoc> Emerge-Pkg or Build-Pkg, but never Build-Pkg
06:17 < mnemoc> err
06:17 < mnemoc> Emerge-Pkg or Build-Target, but never Build-Pkg
06:17 < _Lewellyn> Create-ErrList, then
06:17 < mnemoc> Create-ErrList show logs and does -newdelete and -remove
06:18 < mnemoc> i'll go to sleep
06:18 < mnemoc> good night _Lewellyn
06:18 < _Lewellyn> thank you. sleep well :)
06:19 < _Lewellyn> oh. and dbus already had NOPARALLEL
06:19 * _Lewellyn goes to figure out what he has to disable to get rid of dbus
06:21 < _Lewellyn> xfce. didn't need it anyway. turned it on by accident, i think.
06:22 < _Lewellyn> -remove isn't doing it. bah.
06:22 * _Lewellyn removes by hand.
06:23 < _Lewellyn> oh no i'm not.
06:23 < _Lewellyn> :(
06:25 < _Lewellyn> anyone else up who can help? :(

11:43 < _Lewellyn> so. i installed via a "scsi" usb drive.
11:43 < _Lewellyn> however, it's going to be used as an internal ide drive
11:44 < _Lewellyn> any suggestions on how to get lilo to work?
11:44 < _Lewellyn> or how to get grub installed? :)
11:45 < _Lewellyn> ah. i see the grub...
11:46 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: I guess the easiest way is to run 'stone'
11:46 < _Lewellyn> i'd need the thing "properly" booted first :(
11:46 < _Lewellyn> also, how do i get JFS onto the bootdisc?
11:47 < mtr> _Lewellyn: tell grub on which device the root will be on
11:47 < _Lewellyn> mtr: grub's not installed atm
11:47 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: dunno if JFS support is enabled on bootdisk's kernel
11:47 < mtr> _Lewellyn: device (hd0) /dev/sda
11:47 < _Lewellyn> just lilo
11:47 < _Lewellyn> morfoh: ah. it's in the selection for creating the filesystem.
11:47 < mtr> _Lewellyn: but you have grub on your boot disk ?
11:47 < _Lewellyn> ya...
11:48 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: run Config and add a 'X grub' to your pkgsel
11:48 < _Lewellyn> morfoh: i did. rebuilding now.
11:48 < _Lewellyn> then i'll reinstall
11:48 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: boot from your ISO and run stone
11:49 < _Lewellyn> use gasgui?
11:49 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: nope ... afaik it doesn't work anyway
11:49 < _Lewellyn> hrm.
11:50 < _Lewellyn> what should i do at this screen?
11:50 < _Lewellyn> choose gastone?
11:54 < _Lewellyn> morfoh: so what am i supposed to be doing from within stone?
11:59 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: there you have a grub menu, where you can setup your grub properly
11:59 < _Lewellyn> after i get through gastone/gasgui>
12:00 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: yes ... after you installed the packages
12:00 < _Lewellyn> i only saw lilo... let me get there again...
12:01 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: yes ... because you just had lilo the first time
12:01 < _Lewellyn> that's all i have still...
12:01 < _Lewellyn> i didn't build grub on this iso
12:02 < _Lewellyn> so, i'll need to build a new iso, right?
12:02 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: I think so
12:02 < _Lewellyn> ok. one moment
12:03 < _Lewellyn> built. booting.
12:06 < _Lewellyn> in stone now
12:07 < _Lewellyn> should i reinstall? or just the one package is fine?
12:07 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: just install the missing package
12:07 < _Lewellyn> gastone didn't work... :/
12:08 < _Lewellyn> reformatting the partition and reinstalling. i may have borked something accidentally. this will make sure i didn't :)
12:09 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: I guess that's not the problem
12:09 < _Lewellyn> oh. no. i didn't bork it.
12:09 < _Lewellyn> getting gzip errors with gastone and gasgui
12:09 < _Lewellyn> rebuilding the iso
12:15 < _Lewellyn> ok. packages are installing.
12:18 < _Lewellyn> this part is amazingly fast when you're installing from an iso file :)
12:19 * _Lewellyn wishes installing things always happened at this speed
12:23 < _Lewellyn> ok. i'll be at the menu that had lilo in a moment. hopefully, there's a grub
12:29 < _Lewellyn> it seems to keep spitting errors at me :(
12:29 < _Lewellyn> and i can't change the scsi to ide
12:33 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: oh! ... unfortunately I've to leave now :|
12:34 < morfoh> cu later *
12:34 -!- morfoh [n=jeru@p54BECBA5.dip.t-dialin.net] has quit ["leaving"]
12:34 < _Lewellyn> ok. thanks
12:34 < _Lewellyn> ah well
12:34 < _Lewellyn> any other grub users who may be able to help?
12:34 < _Lewellyn> or lilo users, as i am more familiar with that once i get it up? :)
12:37 < mtr> sometime i install grub on a compact flash, mounted as scsi drive, and later it boots as ide
12:37 < mtr> start grub and type the following commands:
12:38 < mtr> device (hd0)
12:38 < mtr> root (hd0,0)
12:38 < mtr> setup (hd0)
12:38 < mtr> quit
12:40 < _Lewellyn> so not from the grub menu
12:40 < _Lewellyn> (in stone)
12:40 < mtr> no, not within stone, just plain shell
12:41 < _Lewellyn> the device (hd0) tells me File not found
12:41 < mtr> for example: device (hd0) /dev/sda
12:42 < _Lewellyn> ok. got that working (/dev/scsi/...)
12:42 < _Lewellyn> but root (hd0,0)doesn't :
12:43 < _Lewellyn> Error 5: Partition table invalid or corrupt
12:43 < mtr> (hd0,0) is the first partition on that drive
12:43 < _Lewellyn> ya
12:45 < _Lewellyn> ok. started over and it worked
12:46 < _Lewellyn> ok. let's see what happens when i try to use the drive...
12:50 < mtr> _Lewellyn: most probably you'll need to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst, but you can do this later on
12:51 < _Lewellyn> i did already :)
12:51 < mtr> :)
13:05 < _Lewellyn> let's see if it boots...
13:05 < _Lewellyn> woo!
13:05 < _Lewellyn> thank you! ! ! :)
13:06 < _Lewellyn> urk.
13:06 < _Lewellyn> crap
13:06 < _Lewellyn> forgot fstab
13:06 < mtr> _Lewellyn: ?
13:07 < _Lewellyn> fstab points at the scsi dev still...
13:08 < _Lewellyn> gah
13:08 * _Lewellyn tries to boot into single-user mode
13:28 * _Lewellyn tries to configure x for this ancient machine
13:45 < _Lewellyn> i think i'll try from bed, where it's more comfortable. back later :)

22:31 < valentin> very short hi
22:32 < mnemoc> very short welcome back
22:44 < _Lewellyn> hoi mnemoc :)
22:44 < _Lewellyn> mnemoc: i've got an interesting question for you that i expect a "no" to...
22:44 < _Lewellyn> mnemoc: rather a yes...
22:45 < _Lewellyn> would you object to a "Tablet PC" selection group for mnemosyne2?
22:45 < _Lewellyn> where one would select the type of Tablet they have and the correct packages get installed?
22:46 < _Lewellyn> if you don't choose a specific tablet, it just turns on the xscribblefs and a couple of onscreen keyboards
22:47 < mnemoc> _Lewellyn: you can easily extend mnemosyne2, as i did for sheba, with it's own modules tree :)
22:47 < mnemoc> or specificly make a mnemosyne variant for your tablet pc
22:48 < mnemoc> echo mnemosyne2 > target/tabletsyne/extends
22:49 < _Lewellyn> i was thinking of going all out with the half-dozen or so different tablet groups.
22:49 < _Lewellyn> i discovered the need last night when i realized that Xorg was compiled without my digitizer driver, plus there's a newer driver anyway
22:50 < _Lewellyn> and tabletsyne sounds funny ;)
22:50 < _Lewellyn> sounds like congestion medication
22:52 < mnemoc> :)
22:52 < mnemoc> but i really think a distribution for tablet PC powered by T2/mnemosyne is a nice idea :)
22:52 < _Lewellyn> yes. and necessary for me...
22:52 < mnemoc> target extensions and mnemosyne.pl can help you a lot
22:53 < _Lewellyn> http://www.neurath.org/stylistic_lt_c500/
22:53 < mnemoc> target inherence*
22:53 < _Lewellyn> that's what i have, btw
22:53 < _Lewellyn> yes, because then i get all of the mnemosyne changes too, right?
22:53 < mnemoc> yes
22:53 < mnemoc> take a look into sheba target
22:53 < _Lewellyn> sweet
22:53 < _Lewellyn> i will in a few
22:54 < _Lewellyn> this leads to another question i had last night:
22:54 < _Lewellyn> if i have 2 choices, how can i allow both to be selected?
22:54 < mnemoc> you can't
22:54 < _Lewellyn> so, a third that says "Both" then
22:54 < mnemoc> yes
22:54 < mnemoc> #Imply: first second
22:55 < _Lewellyn> i'd like to allow both of the decent Virtual Keyboards to be selected :)
22:55 < _Lewellyn> ok :)
22:55 < _Lewellyn> i guess i get to start making some packages...
22:55 < _Lewellyn> i guess i should also do a svn checkout onto my tablet.
22:56 < _Lewellyn> since the t2-stable is missing svn stuff
22:57 < mnemoc> uhm?
22:58 < morfoh> .oO( I could test a tabletsyne on my acer at work )o.
23:05 < _Lewellyn> mnemoc: i'll boot my tablet in a moment to elaborate
23:05 < _Lewellyn> morfoh: url to the acer?
23:08 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: dunno exactly the model ... but wait a moment

23:15 < mnemoc> wb madtux
23:16 < madtux> rat-master
23:16 < madtux> mny-master
23:16 < madtux> :)
23:16 < madtux> mnemoc: so some dicussion is taking place at the elks mailing list.
23:17 < madtux> we're kind of discussion the path to go with elks from now... as u are aware i am trying to bring the project back to live
23:17 < mnemoc> madtux: t2 powered? ;)
23:17 < madtux> several people is talking about doing porting the kernel also to arm
23:18 < madtux> which could be cool and notmuch of a problem to port..
23:18 < madtux> then again we need to think carefully about it... i mean arm folks already have a really nice suport from gcc and uClinux
23:19 < madtux> but yes in fact i am been more and more temptated to port bcc and friends, elks, elks-utils and elks-net to t2
23:19 < mnemoc> stay at ia16 for now ;)
23:19 < madtux> mnemoc: well we had already made a lot of work to support psions... t2 has been trying to target those babys i believe
23:20 < mnemoc> madtux: psion targets is fully operative ;)
23:20 < mnemoc> target*
23:20 < morfoh> mnemoc: what are you doing with an ia16 ? :p
23:20 < madtux> thats cool... which models
23:20 < mnemoc> ask rene
23:20 < morfoh> madtux: it's called revo
23:20 < madtux> morfoh: some people call me "elks kernel mantainer"
23:20 < mnemoc> morfoh: i have many ia16 around here
23:21 < madtux> mnemoc: cool.
23:21 < morfoh> madtux: didn't knew that before Mr. Elks :)
23:21 < madtux> if we are already supporting psions i believe we should add some sort of supported models list or so
23:21 < madtux> plus i do not know if this also works fine on the older models
23:22 < madtux> morfoh: oh there is a lot of stuff u do not know about me
23:22 < morfoh> madtux: seems so :p
23:22 < morfoh> madtux: but this will change ... hehe
23:22 < madtux> morfoh: it takes years to know me. :)
23:22 < mnemoc> there is a generic embedded target which can be easily specialized using target inherence feature
23:23 < madtux> even mnemoc doesn't know many things about me... and he is been a close frind of mine for several years
23:23 < madtux> :)
23:23 < madtux> mnemoc: thats cool.
23:23 < madtux> i am going to have to play with that... then again i guess i will have to buy me a psion..
23:23 < morfoh> madtux: just a year :p
23:23 < madtux> morfoh: a year? not really.
23:23 < morfoh> madtux: the psion target is a separated one
23:34 < _Lewellyn> morfoh: huh. that one will be easy to support.
23:34 < _Lewellyn> apparently the only special software specific to that tablet is the keyboard driver
23:34 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: why not ?
23:34 < _Lewellyn> why not what?
23:35 < _Lewellyn> it is easy, not hard ;)
23:35 < _Lewellyn> mnemoc: can a mnemosyne/tabletsyne append to the motd?
23:35 < _Lewellyn> i'd like to have the motd say what needs to be done to set up X
23:36 < mnemoc> _Lewellyn: extending sysfiles i guess
23:36 < _Lewellyn> ok. that's what i thought i'd have to do from looking at things yesterday
23:36 < _Lewellyn> also, why isn't usbfs mounted on /proc/bus/usb by default?
23:36 < _Lewellyn> does it puke on non-usb machines?
23:37 < madtux> hello _Lewellyn
23:37 < morfoh> _Lewellyn: I meant, with "why not" the linux support ;)
23:54 < mnemoc> morfoh: did you addapt dietlibc patch for gcc-3.4.4?
23:56 -!- madtux [n=mike@196.40.44.28] has quit ["leaving"]
23:59 < morfoh> mnemoc: I've no patch! I just have "wannabe" patch adapting the old pkg_gcc.chroot.patch ... but it doesn't solve our current problem :\
