jjpeaslsounds like fun about to update to the latest kernal and see how it works out16:17
JesusFreak316There's some pretty good stuff in the last two kernels.16:17
jjpeaslwas just reading comments on the kernal, looking promising like always.16:17
JesusFreak316What have you been using?16:18

JesusFreak316RHOD has had sooo many fixes lately.16:20
jjpeaslive install that one and use the update tool included in the cab16:20
JesusFreak316Yeah, I think he finally got around to updating the cab updating tool to where it actually downloads the correct zImage now.16:21
jjpeaslok16:22
jjpeaslguess i'll have to try the update again because the latest ver was 100416:22

stinebdROY HALLADAY!19:42
arrrghhhque?19:42
stinebdsorry19:42
stinebdi'm somewhat of a baseball fan19:43
arrrghhhlol19:43
stinebdphillies pitcher just threw a no hitter in his first playoff game19:43
arrrghhhdamn19:43
*** conn has quit IRC20:03
stinebdarrrghhh: what did you need btw20:04
arrrghhheh i think natemcutty is going to help me... trying to get 3.5mm jack to work20:06
arrrghhhand the code change seems pretty easy.20:06
stinebdgood20:06
arrrghhhbut perhaps i'm underestimating what needs to be done :P20:06
*** hyperfire21 has joined #xdandroid20:06
stinebdi'm not the kernel guy20:06
arrrghhhdamnit c'mon guy.  ;)  no worries, nate has the same phone & has been building nand kernels so hopefully he can get it workin.  or at least built :D20:06
stinebdthe only thing i know about the kernel is that if you stick it in a microwave it explodes and tastes good20:07
arrrghhhnice.20:07
arrrghhhreally?  you seem like such a jack-of-all-trades kinda guy.20:07
arrrghhhi don't really understand much of any of it.20:07
arrrghhhi've gotten pretty good at testing/troubleshooting :P  at least i like to think so...20:08
stinebdi can kinda sorta make out what's happening, but i can't write the code worth a crap20:08
stinebdand i don't have even a fundamental understanding of embedded system architecture20:08
arrrghhhhaha20:09
arrrghhhso what knowledge do you have that assits you in whipping out those system.ext2 files?20:09
arrrghhhi guess i don't really see how that fits in TBH20:10
stinebdwell the system images are userland20:11
stinebdi'm not as much of a slouch when it comes to userland stuff20:11
stinebdmess less ASM, obscure C macros, etc20:11
stinebdmuch*20:12
arrrghhhhuh20:12
arrrghhhwhat is that written in?  java?20:12
stinebdi have one or maybe two commits to the linux-msm tree20:12
stinebdmostly java20:12
arrrghhhic20:12
stinebdc++ and c mixed in as well20:12
arrrghhhhuh20:13
arrrghhhi took some courses in c++ and java way bacak in the day.  haven't done anything with it in years tho, shame really.20:13
stinebdi hate programming... really20:13
stinebdi enjoy this stuff because it's much closer to administration20:13
arrrghhhhaha20:14
arrrghhhi suck at programming20:14
arrrghhhi was OK when i was writing my own code20:14
stinebdi'm very good at it but i can't stand doing it on a daily basis20:14
arrrghhhbut i was HORRIBLE at debugging other people's code.20:14
arrrghhhhm.  well that's a shame.20:14
stinebdanother interesting note is that i have no java experience whatsoever20:15
arrrghhhi feel so behind at this point, i'm not even sure where to start tbh.20:15
arrrghhhhaha really?20:15
arrrghhhany "traditional" programming experience...?20:15
stinebdmostly C and some C++20:15
arrrghhhhm20:15
stinebdlots of php and python and bash20:15
arrrghhhyea, i kinda wish i would've learned c first.20:15
arrrghhhah nice.20:16
arrrghhhgood ole scripting languages.20:16
stinebdC is my favorite so far20:16
arrrghhhi've written some awesome scripts in AHK :d20:16
arrrghhhder20:16
arrrghhh:D20:16
stinebdi find the best way to get work done is to jump in and forget about how dumb you think you are20:18
stinebdthe dumber the question, the easier the answer is to get20:18
arrrghhhhaha that's certainly true.20:18
arrrghhhi just get lost quickly in the kernel code.20:18
arrrghhhi don't think i've looked at any userland code tbh.  seems like most of the work that needs to be done is on the kernel...20:19
stinebdwell our system images still need a lot of work20:20
arrrghhhin what way?20:21
stinebdstability and reliability, speed (most likely), general bugfixes, features20:21
arrrghhhhrm20:21
stinebdlots of little stuff like market randomly failing, gallery3d on vga, weird random SIGBUS (with JIT on... SIGSEGV without jit) errors20:22
arrrghhhis the code in the git ?20:22
stinebdaosp is split into a metric crapton of individual repositories, pulled together by their repo program20:23
arrrghhhah...20:23
arrrghhhsounds painful.20:23
stinebdnot really, once you get used to it20:23
arrrghhhhuh20:24
stinebdi guess that's the same as root canals not being so bad after you've had a dozen, though20:24
arrrghhhLOL20:24
arrrghhhnice analogy.20:24
stinebdhttp://android.git.kernel.org/20:25
stinebdeach repository that begins with "platform" is part of aosp20:26
stinebdwe've forked about six and have 3 or 4 of our own20:27

rafIs there any way to get write permissions in xdandroid.com/wiki?  I would like to create a starting-point article about XDAndroidStartup since all of the info about that seems to be currently sprinkled throughout the forums.22:17
*** arrrghhh has joined #xdandroid22:17
stinebdsomething like this? http://xdandroid.com/wiki/Installation_Guide22:19
rafstinebd: are you talking to me?  I don't see anything in Installation_Guide about XDAndroidStartup, the application for Windows Mobile that is discussed in the forum22:21
stinebdoh, it's an application?22:21
rafhttp://208.100.42.21/showthread.php?t=627997&page=94222:21
rafalso "MJGDroidUtil.exe", which is similar(?)22:22
arrrghhhdid i miss something?22:23
stinebdthose are not officially supported by the project22:23
rafI was wondering if it would be possible to get write permission on the wiki to document things like MJGDroidUtil.exe and XDAndroidStartup.cab22:23
arrrghhhoh i see22:23
arrrghhhyea22:23
arrrghhhthey're reef&sov's baby22:23
arrrghhhseems like mostly sov's baby AFAIK22:23
stinebdi can grant you access to create pages, but only on the condition that you add a huge "THIS IS UNSUPPORTED" warning to those pages22:23
arrrghhhlol22:24
rafno problem22:24
stinebdlet me know what your username is and i'll take care of it22:24
rafwiki username is Raf22:24
arrrghhhraf, so call it MJGDroidUtil please.  it's never been called XDAndroidStartup...22:25
arrrghhhhas it?22:25
rafhttp://208.100.42.21/showthread.php?t=627997&page=942 seems to indicate that those are two different things22:25
arrrghhhuh22:26
arrrghhhwhat post?22:26
arrrghhhwhy are  you referencing xda by ip?  odd.22:26
arrrghhhcan't wait for ipv622:26
rafgood question22:26
arrrghhhlol that should be fun.22:26
arrrghhhseriously tho what post...22:27
arrrghhhI'm guessing you're talking about this quote: "The app actually started out as a startup.txt generator, lol, because of so many posts flooding this thread about issues that ended up to be just an error in the user's startup.txt file. Well, one thing led to another, and now it's a full fledged startup/update utility."22:27
stinebdraf: all set. i hope...22:28
* stinebd is not a mediawiki genius22:28
rafThe quote that mentions both names is in http://208.100.42.21/showthread.php?t=627997&page=942 : "Which startup app? MJGDroidUtil.exe or XDAndroidStartup.exe? XDAndroidStartup is my startup utility and all of the rhodiums are set to gsensor_axis=2,1,3."22:29
rafsorry for the IP addresses, I don't know which search engine sent me to those22:30
arrrghhhhrm22:30
arrrghhhi don't know what that .exe is22:30
arrrghhhharet i assume that someone renamed?22:30
rafI'll try to get to the bottom of it and include citation links to the forums.  My wiki privileges look OK.22:31
arrrghhhcuz i don't have an exe by that name...22:31
arrrghhhwell sov wrote MJGDroidUtil22:31
arrrghhhthat's for sure22:31
arrrghhhreef seems to be the distributor/packagor22:31
arrrghhhpackage-whore?22:31
stinebdi need to open a bug about the rhodium starting in landscape22:31
arrrghhhno, i don't know him that well.22:31
arrrghhhstinebd, i did...22:32
arrrghhhalready.22:32
stinebdok22:32
arrrghhh:D22:32
stinebdand now i must mark it WONTFIX22:32
stinebdand then start my own22:32
arrrghhhd!ck22:32
stinebdlow/trivial22:33
stinebdi wish.22:33
arrrghhheh22:33
arrrghhhit doesn't seem that important lol22:33
stinebdnothing in android is trivial22:33
arrrghhhhahaha22:33
arrrghhhkeyboard lights?22:33
arrrghhhtrivial.22:33
stinebdexactly22:33
arrrghhhcan i get a stable RIL maybe?22:33
arrrghhh:P22:33
stinebdnot crashing every 5 minutes? piece of cake22:33
arrrghhhi tried to call someone today and it reset on my all wacky like.22:34
arrrghhhso i was hitting the end key to end the call...22:34
arrrghhhand instead of ending the call, the speakerphone turned on!  yay!22:34
arrrghhhand then the phone decided to reset... but only in Android.  mind you the call was still running on speakerphone.22:34
arrrghhhit was pretty sweet because it was just a looping error message from telco22:35
stinebdlogcat!22:36
arrrghhhme not my.  damnit.22:36
arrrghhhi think it's a little late for that unfortunately...22:36
arrrghhhbut i could probably recreate it by calling myself or something lol22:36
stinebdany time something like that happens, logcat. AND logcat -b radio probably22:36
stinebdand maybe a few dmesgs22:36
arrrghhheven after it reset like that?22:37
arrrghhh...would that have been useful?22:37
stinebdreset as in reboot, or reset to bootanim?22:37
arrrghhhreset to bootanim22:37
stinebdyes logcat still useful in that case22:37
arrrghhhoh22:37
arrrghhhd'oh22:37
stinebdassuming you get to it before the good part of the buffer gets knocked out22:38
arrrghhhhaha22:38
rafI see that you're running the wiki on an Ubuntu server.  If you would enable the citation extension, it would be a good way for me to make links to the forum sources.  "apt-get install mediawiki-extensions; mwenext Cite.php".  I've run a MediaWiki server at my company for 7 years so I'm pretty sure this won't break anything.22:43
stinebdi didn't install it via apt22:44
arrrghhhraf, so what is this "XDAndroidStartup.exe"?  is it just haret?22:45
stinebddistro packages are incompatible with my apache security model22:45
rafregarding mediawiki: if you still wanted to do it, it would be something like "svn co http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/Cite /var/lib/mediawiki/extensions/Cite" and then add 'require_once("$IP/extensions/Cite/Cite.php");' to LocalSettings.php (adjusting for paths).  Not too important in any case.22:47
rafI don't know what XDAndroidStartup.exe is, but people in the forum seem to be excited about it, so I just wanted to document it.22:47
stinebdi have to upgrade mediawiki anyway22:48
raf... including documenting whether it's useful22:48
rafok first version: http://xdandroid.com/wiki/XDAndroidStartup .. I'll flesh it out later22:49
