00:11 < AStorm> Nope.
00:11 < AStorm> Something with uclibc :P
00:11 < AStorm> Probably -z relro of the uclibc interferes with binutils
00:29 < AStorm> more pasted:

00:32 < sepp> uhm
00:32 < AStorm> Yes, now trying FPIC-QUIRK
00:35 < AStorm> Probably it's required.
00:45 < AStorm> Gentoo has a patch for it :-)
00:50 < AStorm> Except I have to find it in their rsync :>

02:53 < AStorm> Ehh, I won't have time to fix that before moving back to studies
02:54 < AStorm> Maybe I'll have a bit of time there
02:57 < AStorm> At least I'll get a system up and running. At worst, it will be Gentoo.
02:57 < AStorm> At best, T2 :>

03:32 < AStorm> I've added some pic patch from Gentoo :>
03:34 < AStorm> Simple cp addition, weird :>
03:35 < AStorm> No joy.
03:39 < AStorm> hmm, now I'm forcing relro on these
03:40 < AStorm> (with a patch)
03:42 < AStorm> No joy either.
03:43 < AStorm> According to some Gentoo devs, x86_64 uclibc doesn't work w/o -z now
03:49 < AStorm> so, I'm enabling UCLIBC_BUILD_NOW

05:06 < Drysh> Hello.. I'm trying to install T2. I booted using the downloaded iso version 6.03 pentium-mmx ....
05:06 < Drysh> After booting, I typed stone to enter the installer..
05:06 < Drysh> But it doenst have any install option
05:07 < Drysh> I mean.. The docs say there should be an option to create the partition and those things.. But I couldn't find any.
05:09 < Drysh> It actualy looks like a configuration tool for after-install things.
05:20 < Drysh> :( No one here.. I'll try again tomorrow. Good night.
05:23 < R4gnar0k> you actually make the partitions with fdisk

08:10 < rxr> re
08:11 < rxr> Drysh: 6.0.3 is a live-cd, it does not include the STONE installer
08:11 < rxr> if you want a classic install, you can use 6.0.0 or 6.0.1

08:49 < AStorm> Hmm, how would I give -z now to ld on some package?
08:49 < AStorm> var_append ' ' '-z now'?
08:51 < rxr> var_append GCC_WRAPPER_APPEND ' ' '-c?:-Wl,-z no'
08:51 < rxr> or so
08:51 < rxr> if the package links with gcc ...
08:51 < AStorm> No, with libtool
08:51 < AStorm> I'd rather have to modify LDFLAGS
08:51 < rxr> and that calls gcc ?
08:51 < rxr> well, of use the LDFLAGS if the package has some
08:58 < AStorm> didn't help :-(
08:58 < AStorm> I'm out of ideas.
09:01 < rxr> using LDFLAGS did not work or this -zno had no effect ?

09:34 < sepp> and Emerge/Build-Pkg need grep

10:17 < rxr> some external kill -9 should help :-)
10:19 < sepp> only 1 computer here atm
10:21 < rxr> I meant from another xterm or VT ...
10:23 < sepp> would have done that, but after 1min it was still busy switching to an other vt
10:24 < sepp> but i comppiled one from source, now everything is working again :)
10:57 < AStorm> Hey guys
10:57 < AStorm> what about doing binutils 2.17 w/ branch update instead of 2.17.50.0.14?
10:58 < rxr> what branch update ?
10:58 < AStorm> svn branch update patch
10:58 < AStorm> 2.17 branch, stable one
10:59 < rxr> why not the continous snapshot releases ?
11:07 < AStorm> Could be too, but... these have more bugs :>

17:00 < rxr> hey, wait, just notice my current laptop CPU has more L2 cache than my first x86 had RAM ...
17:00 < rxr> that was a 386sx25 w/ 2MB RAM ...

17:05 < sepp> hehe
17:06 < sepp> my 1st x86 crap was a pestilentium :)
17:06 < sepp> 1
17:10 < sepp> with win95a, running upto 2 weeks without reinstalling :p
17:14 < rxr> heh - the 286 just had DOS
17:14 < rxr> 386 even
17:14 < rxr> I think in the beginning it did not even had a HD
17:14 < rxr> or did we already had the 40MB HD from the 286
17:14 < rxr> hm - I do not rember exactly anymore
17:15 < rxr> what I remeber is that years later I found the HD bill when we moved and I could not imagine that my father had to pay something like 400DM (in 198x) for this just 40MB ...
17:15 < rxr> that was in the times when you could install Windows 3.1 two times on the single 40MB HD ...
17:19 < sepp> :)
17:19 < rxr> heh I just wondered what the cool LaTeX macros for scripts were I used formerly:
17:20 < rxr> \newcommand{\script}[1]{\myurl{#1}}
17:20 < rxr> % script in boxes - due to damn \url brain-deadness ...
17:20 < rxr> \newcommand{\uscript}[1]{\bf{#1}}
17:22 < rxr> needless to day I tried to avoid Windows as long as I could
17:22 < rxr> I run on DOS when half of the world already updated to Windows 98 or so ... and valentin and I had prepared the first proteced mode assembly bit for the start of an real protected mode OS, when we encounted Linux ...
18:19 < CIA-18> rene * r23484 /trunk/package/network/rocknet/rocknet.cache: * added missing rocknet.cache file

19:28 < rxr> valentin: impressive how fast Beryl and the Linux OpenGL Intel drivers are now
19:29 < rxr> I have plenty of windows open on the MacBook with the output to the externel Apple Cinema Display DVI with 1680x1050 pixel or so and the Beryl expose a-like zoom is faster and smoother than the orignal Mac OS X expose ...
19:30 < rxr> and that is with a java engine running, rendering the T2 Handbook and the pdf even re-rerendering the graphic content on the zoom view
19:31 < rxr> valentin: btw. one more beryl think, with the Super (Windows, Apple) key and the mouse whell you can zoom on the desktop, so far so good, the cool part is that you can zoom into the original content of windows on the zoom view ... - that really rocks, especially with 4 konquerors and 3 kpdfs open you want to differentiate ...

23:48 < AStorm> the new pendrive is... just great
23:48 < AStorm> this thing is faster than my laptop SATA drive
23:48 < AStorm> Not to say that it eats much less power
23:53 < sepp> now you can get vista and use it as startup drive, or whatever they call it :p
23:56 < AStorm> :P
23:57 < AStorm> Yep, it is ReadyBoot ready :p
23:57 < AStorm> Though I'd rather use it for Linux :>
