arrrghhhXofrats, I'm betting size.  the size of the kernel I think is on the razor's edge for our existing setup.  Go too large, and that offset & 'new' haret is required.00:48

stinebdhyc: what do you know about tiny little mini/plug PCs?11:48
stinebdfor instance http://trimslice.com/web/11:48
stinebdi want to use it as a glorified print, mail, lamp, file, nat server11:52
knchrisi'd use something cheaper for that. An old $30 ASUS router with openWRT or dd-wrt will handle that just fine.11:56
stinebdno it won't11:56
stinebdthe mail part includes spamassassin11:56
stinebdit'd be replacing a standalone pc for this task11:57
stinebdi was thinking a dockstar but those are apparently a commodity now (costs more than it's worth) and they only have 128MB ram11:57
arrrghhhHDMI out11:57
arrrghhhwow11:57
stinebdyeah i wouldn't use most of the fancy crap it has11:58
arrrghhhhum11:58
arrrghhhi might11:58
arrrghhhstupid PS3 gets so loud when it's summertime11:58
arrrghhhwatching movies with it is painful at times... i have a fan sitting in front of it in order to keep from the turbo ps3 fan kicking in.11:58
stinebdthe trim slice is almost exactly what i would need but with some extras11:58
arrrghhha fanless design like that would be sweet11:59
arrrghhhassuming it could play HD video, which i assume it can with HDMI out lol11:59
arrrghhhthe one issue would be surround sound...11:59
stinebdi have existing equipment hooked up to a UPS, and i like the thought of it powering that little thing for like 3 days11:59
arrrghhhlol12:00
stinebdi have extended power outages (8+ hours) a few times a year here12:00
arrrghhhdamn12:00
arrrghhhmy UPS would last like 20 minutes probably12:00
stinebdinterestingly the cable node lasts about 6 hours12:00
arrrghhh40 without the file server attached12:00
stinebdi have some little apc backups that runs the pc for like 90 minutes12:00
arrrghhh"GPU assisted video playback is not supported yet – so Trim-Slice does not yet play high definition video."12:01
arrrghhhmight be a problem.12:01
stinebdnot for me :P12:01
arrrghhhheh12:01
stinebdthey could take the gpu off for all i care12:01
arrrghhhdid you see the 'local reseller' page?  lol12:01
stinebdmaybe i could email them and ask for that12:01
stinebdknock $20 off the price and give me no gpu12:01
arrrghhhCzech, Denmakr, Iceland, Israel, Switzerland, UK.12:02
stinebdyeah12:02
stinebdbackorder is 2 weeks for the base model12:02
stinebdwhen you order direct12:02
arrrghhhheh12:02
arrrghhhi didn't know you could order direct12:02
stinebd$215 with shipping12:02
arrrghhhhum12:02
stinebdif i get that, a usb hard drive and a usb 100mbit lan i think i'd be set12:03

arrrghhhit does gigbit thru ethernet no?12:04
stinebdyeah12:04
stinebdi need another ethernet to the modem12:04
arrrghhhoutta router space eh12:05
stinebdno12:05
stinebdit would be the router too12:05
arrrghhhoic12:05
arrrghhhheh, with only 1 nic.12:06
stinebdi'd do it through the wifi router but i don't trust *wrt under that load12:07
stinebdit's failed me before12:07
stinebdbecause certain people like to use torrents a lot12:07
arrrghhhdon't look at me12:08
stinebdi don't think you live here12:08
stinebdOR DO YOU?!12:08
arrrghhhonly on the weekends12:08
knchrisVery cool hardware. I haven't dealt with mail systems and spam for a while. Does SpamAssassin really need all that?12:08
stinebdit's perl, so yes12:08
stinebdthe machine running it now is an athlon64 3500+ with 512mb ram12:09
stinebdso i'd need at least, say, a marvell 800mhz with 512mb+swap12:09
stinebdneedless to say i'd see a bit of a boost on a tegra2 1gb12:09
arrrghhhwhich is epic since it's fanless and tiny12:10
stinebdfanless is nice too btw12:10
stinebdthat athlon64 is loud as hell12:10
arrrghhhindeed12:10
arrrghhhmy ps3 is loud as hell :P12:10
stinebdi'm 197% certain this is louder by a good margin12:10
knchrisah12:11
stinebdif i could get another atrix and hook up a usb hub to it, that might work12:11
arrrghhhi'm f-ing amazed at how loud the PS3 can get.12:11
stinebdalso i'd get emergency mobile data if needed12:11
arrrghhhnormally it's just a dull roar12:11
arrrghhhbut if it's summer and we've had the TV/receiver on for a while... the PS3 goes into emergency blow mode, and sounds like a freakin airplane.12:12
arrrghhhlol, 2 atrixes12:12
stinebdthat's what this pc sounds like always12:12
arrrghhhha12:12
arrrghhhyea12:12
stinebdthe fan has only one speed: space shuttle launch12:12
arrrghhhlol12:12
stinebdi wish i could steal donation money for this but that would be against my strict policy of giving the money to everyone else12:13
stinebdif i use my grandmother's line upgrade eligibility i can get the atrix for $100 and hack it into usb host mode12:15
stinebd$125 when you factor in the temporary data plan12:16
stinebdanyway alex asked me to do something last night and i forget what it was12:19
stinebdi wrote it down somewhere but i forget where12:19

arrrghhhstupid blackstone users12:33
xda-Squirrelsgo on12:33
arrrghhhwhy must wifi be so fickle12:33
arrrghhhor maybe this user is just a rube12:33
arrrghhhhe said he's been trying to get wifi to work for over a year lol12:33
arrrghhhi'm not sure what his logs indicate, other than it's borked.12:34
arrrghhhdmesg starts exploding after wifi is shutdown.  turning it up doesn't seem too dramatic of an affair.12:34
xda-Squirrelshmm12:34
xda-Squirrelsweird12:34
arrrghhh[  356.655212] TIWLAN: Driver loaded12:34

arrrghhhthen the nightmare begins12:35
xda-Squirrelsif it wasnt working you'd think you'd see something when it tried to start or scan or connect12:35
arrrghhhwell what's odd is it can scan12:35
arrrghhhit sees a network12:35
arrrghhhtries to connect.  even says it's connected... then just goes to disconnected.12:35
xda-Squirrelswpa_supplicant broken?12:35
arrrghhhi guess12:35
xda-Squirrelsidk why that'd make the interface go down though12:35
arrrghhhindeed12:36
xda-Squirrelsand there is no other useful info?12:36
arrrghhh08-11 12:52:01.240 E/WifiService( 1339): Error configuring interface tiwlan0, :java.lang.IllegalStateException: Expected code 213, but got 60012:37
arrrghhhi'm not very useful at finding things that are useful.12:37
arrrghhhat least nothing is jumping out at me.  i don't troubleshoot wifi very often (read: ever)12:37
rpierce99i thought issues turning off TI was known12:38
rpierce99the unable to connect part no so much12:38
arrrghhhrpierce99, not only has it been fixed in FRX0712:38
arrrghhhbut this isn't that issue12:38
arrrghhhthis is on a first boot12:38
arrrghhhstill failing12:38
arrrghhhand i see it trying to connect12:38

rpierce99if there's one thing I learned while working for Geek Squad it's that no one has a clue when it comes to their wireless networks12:40
arrrghhhperhaps someone smarter than I can see what's up ^^12:40
arrrghhhrpierce99, indeed.  i'm just wondering if it's user error or not.  it doesn't appear to be, but there's always that possibility.12:40

f00bar80whenever i try pptp vpn i'm geting unable to connect to network, at the time i've used a working vpn login details, any comment12:42
rpierce99f00bar80: comment: VPNs suck12:42
knchrisISPs sometimes block pptp protocol12:42
arrrghhhf00bar80, not supported AFAIK12:42
xda-Squirrelstons of call stacks12:44
arrrghhhxda-Squirrels, that's what i mean by the nightmare beginning after wifi is disabled.12:44
arrrghhhthe kernel just vomits over and over and over again...12:44
xda-Squirrelsyeah12:44
xda-Squirrelsperhaps a comparison between dmesgs from a working and his non-working blackstone would help more12:45
xda-Squirrelssee what doesnt happen on a working one12:45
xda-Squirrelsif they dont get the configuration error, it could be that12:45
arrrghhhhum12:45
xda-Squirrelsi just dont know from that log12:45
arrrghhhyea12:45
arrrghhhany blackstone yokels around?12:46
arrrghhhhrm, i wonder if any TI would do...12:46
xda-Squirrelswhen it says authentication times out maybe it really means association, but idk12:46
xda-Squirrelsnot sure, i still have my random dmesgs laying around12:46
arrrghhhyea.  i love troubleshooting problems for people who have no business running this junk.12:46
xda-Squirrelsbut raph800 might be too diff12:46
xda-Squirrelsyep '[12:46
xda-Squirrels*;p12:46
rpierce99i don't know if a comparison would help, i'd assume the diff would be dmesg would say success instead of fail12:48
rpierce99or wlan0: link read instead of link is not ready12:48
xda-Squirrelswell some things fail but still work through asshattery or 'hacks'12:48
xda-Squirrelsi know in my dmesg there are multiple errors and the like but things stil work12:49
xda-Squirrelsdue to a hack that fixes it later on12:49
xda-Squirrelsi wanna see what a normal dmesg looks like on a blackstone12:49
xda-Squirrelsto rule things out12:49
arrrghhhasshattery12:50
arrrghhhsounds like i found my new college degree aspirations12:50
rpierce99if it works on another blackstone doesn't that necessarily mean it's user error?12:50
xda-Squirrelslol12:50
arrrghhhrpierce99, it's always user error12:50
xda-Squirrelswell it could be a situation where there are variants and this variant has a diff.12:50
arrrghhhespecially in my case, as i've found trying to setup this IRC bouncer.12:51
f00bar80then i don't have anyway to get voip working on 3G as it's currently blocked by my carier12:51
arrrghhhi don't think blackstone has any variants.12:51
xda-Squirrelsit is probably user error if every blackstone person isnt freaking out12:51
rpierce99user error: purchased incorrect phone12:51
xda-Squirrelshmm, idk, i dont have a blackstone lol12:51
arrrghhhf00bar80, voip is painful on our phones anyways.  waste of time.12:51
arrrghhhmeh12:54
f00bar80arrrghhh, so what do you think can be a way to get voip working on 3G at the time it's blocked ?12:56
arrrghhhf00bar80, did you not read what i said.12:57
arrrghhh"f00bar80, voip is painful on our phones anyways.  waste of time."12:57
f00bar80arrrghhh, is there anything can be checked or troubleshooted ?12:57
arrrghhhyea you can check the processor in your phone, it's from 200712:58
rpierce99there was a thread in one of the sites about VPN functionality, people have gotten it working, i have no idea what they did12:58
arrrghhhnow weep softly in the corner and try to find something newer if you expect to be able to use VoIP.12:58
arrrghhhrpierce99, you are so helpful LOL12:58
arrrghhhgeek squad to the rescue!12:58
arrrghhhhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1055404&highlight=vpn12:59
arrrghhhsearching for the term vpn is amazing.12:59
rpierce99hey, sometimes RTFT (thread) is a valid solution, is "get a new phone" really better?12:59
arrrghhhuhm12:59
arrrghhhwhen the hardware is limited12:59
arrrghhhand no amount of hacking at crap will make it work13:00
arrrghhhi'd say yes13:00
arrrghhhbesides, that dude's just talking about getting a VPN working13:00
arrrghhhnothing about VoIP13:00
rpierce99yes, but you've told f00bar80 about all of the issues with voip, and it sounds like he wants to try anyways, so i gave him an option13:01
arrrghhhlol13:01

turbolapinarrrghhh when you say something to work on: do you mean kernel or rom?18:23
arrrghhhturbolapin, whatever you want18:23
rpierce99turbolapin: what he's saying is find a bug that bugs you, or a feature you want, and freaking do it, wherever it lives18:24
turbolapinif i choose a rom then i choose a subcategory too? like in kernel eg wifi, panel colapse etc18:24
turbolapinok to make things a bit clearer18:25
turbolapini prefer kernel18:25
turbolapinbecause it's the base18:25
turbolapini think it would be more exciting working on the kernel18:25
turbolapinbut i also think(i don't know for sure) that it is more difficult18:25
turbolapinsry for being noob but i'm in the first step :D18:26
arrrghhhturbolapin, depends18:26
rpierce99then i suggest you look through the bug tracker, find a bug that lives in kernel space, and fix it18:26
rpierce99though most of our kernel issues require RE of winmo dlls18:27
turbolapinRE?18:27
rpierce99reverse engineering18:27
turbolapinand why is that needed?18:27
rpierce99to figure out how to make the hardware do what it needs to do18:27
turbolapinyeah that's true :P18:28
rpierce99we don't have much documentation on the phone's hardware18:28
turbolapinso in the case of kernel i will need to get in the dlls too?18:28
rpierce99depends on what you are fixing18:29
turbolapinwhat device do you have?18:29
rpierce99rhod400, like most of the cool kids :P18:30
turbolapinhaha18:30
turbolapini have raph100 and i'm cool too :)18:31
turbolapinback to the subject18:31
turbolapinin raph100 we have the panel colapse problem18:31
turbolapinin case i want to try to fix that do i need the help of wm?18:31
rpierce99that's one of the things you'd need either really good docs, or to RE the winmo dlls18:31
rpierce99because you need to know what registers to set on the panel18:32
rpierce99there was another way that wistilt2 was trying, the brute force method18:33
turbolapinis there any way that we can brick our phones because of a bad kernel load? i ask just in any case. i think no because it runs from sdcard18:33
rpierce99he just whipped up a test kernel, had someone test it, then tried another way if it didn't work18:34
arrrghhhwell the chances are low running from SD18:34
turbolapinwith brute force it needs a lot of time right?18:34
arrrghhhbut one dude did manage to brick his phone messing with the battery driver.18:34
stinebdthat wasn't really brute force, he had docs saying "try here... if not there, try here..." etc18:34
rpierce99yeah you'd have to screw with the hardware pretty good to brick it18:34
arrrghhhturbolapin, a lot of time and work... and it turned up nothing unfortunately.18:34
stinebdjonpry: shit let's see if i remember this...18:35
stinebdthere's something in build/ that has the toolbox config18:35
stinebdor maybe in the toolbox directory itself18:35
jonprystinebd is it even a good idea to get rid of toolbox entirely?18:36
stinebdah it's in toolbox/Android.mk TOOLS := ...18:36
turbolapintnx for the tips guys18:36
stinebdnot a good idea18:36
turbolapinbrick because of the battery18:36
turbolapini will keep it in mind :P18:36
stinebdjonpry: unless you can configure busybox as a drop-in replacement18:36
stinebdor your other box of choice18:37
stinebdhowever toolbox has things busybox doesn't18:37
jonpryi've got busybox along with all its links in xbin now18:37
stinebdlike setprop and stuff18:37
jonpryah18:37
jonprysetprop could be useful :)18:37
stinebdyou should keep toolbox and remove things that you'd rather have busybox for18:37
stinebd(and put busybox in /bin i'd say)18:38
stinebder /system/bin18:38
jonprythe biggest issue is that the path is setup to use toolbox first18:38
stinebdyeah that's why if i were you i'd fork it and remove whatever links to toolbox18:39
stinebdlike mv or rm18:39
stinebdimo basically anything that isn't toolbox-specific18:39
jonpryjust remove stuff from TOOL :=?18:40
stinebdyeah (TOOLS)18:40
stinebdyou'll see it right away18:40
jonprywill do. thanks18:40
turbolapinwhat is that toolbox you are talking?18:41
stinebdhonestly most of those things are so bad i don't really know why they didn't just use busybox18:41
stinebda huge waste of time and a terrible result18:41
jonprythey think gpl is the plague18:41
stinebdthey could just tiad it18:42
stinebdwithhold the source and say they got it straight from qualcomm18:42
jonpryi guess busybox is big on suing people18:42
jonprybut really i think its all paranoia. just need to put a little message in the about box that says get your source from busybox.org18:43
stinebdit's not like they don't have other stuff in the tree that's gpl18:43
jonprylike what?18:43
stinebdfind -iname MODULE_LICENSE_GPL18:44
stinebdor -name18:44
jonpryi don't think any of that stuff is necessarily built into the system.img18:45
stinebdsure is18:46
jonpryiptables?18:46
stinebdthe only issue i could see would be something linking to toolbox18:46
stinebdgood point18:47
stinebdiproute2 is in there too18:47
jonpryinteresting that they would go so far just to leave a couple lamo utilities18:48
stinebdalmost had to be an OHA demand18:48
stinebdto protect the vendors18:48
stinebdkinda moot now that they've got oracle after them18:49
jonpryall patent problems18:49
jonprybusybox is good with me. living without find is painful18:50
arrrghhhjonpry, a budding kernel dev has a question for you18:51
jonpryon htc-linux?18:51
stinebdi want to be a colonel dev18:51
arrrghhhlol18:52
arrrghhhi'd like to be a colonel dev as well.  mmmm chicken18:52
arrrghhhjonpry, he's here.  hopefully formulating his question...18:52
jonpryhave to figure out the 11 secret herbs and spices18:52
arrrghhhhehe18:52
arrrghhhhe's asking kernel dev questions that i cannot answer...18:52
krissejonpry: some basic kernel questions..18:52
krissejonpry: do you use menuconfig or make config to change parameters in kernel?18:52
stinebdedit the defconfig and make defconfig18:53
jonpryi like xconfig or gedit :p18:53
krissejonpry: or go straigt ahead with modify it in the files located under /arch/arm/configs18:53
krissethx18:54
jonpryi usually edit the .config that whole defconfig thing is strange18:54
stinebdi do it like torvalds baby18:54
stinebdwhat the hell is error 4118:55
jonprynot good18:55
stinebdframeworks/base/services/java/com/android/server/usb/UsbService.java:341: 'catch' without 'try'18:55
stinebdbam18:55
stinebdbad merge18:55
jonpryhow can you make repo sync do something like a merge?18:56
stinebd?18:56
jonprypretty sure if i do repo sync on my tree which has changes it will just zonk them all18:56
stinebdyou have to set up tracking branches and pull changes manually18:57
jonprysounds like enough fun for another day18:57
stinebdso when you have to change something, git branch --track blahblah remote/blahblah, git checkout blah blah, make your changes and commit18:57
stinebdthen on your next repo sync, follow it with a repo forall git pull18:58
stinebdwhich will either ff or merge whatever upstream changes happened for repositories that you branched18:58
jonprywhat if you already made changes without doing git branch?18:59
stinebdbranch will work off of whatever your head is at19:00
stinebdso you can start after the fact19:00

arrrghhhand i'm assuming your radio goes with it?21:09
Detulemy phone goes with it, i see this ever time the timer on 39 slows down21:11
Detuleso it's radio related21:11
Detule?21:11
arrrghhhSMD?  oh yea21:11
arrrghhhit is the radio as i understand it...21:11
arrrghhh/dev/smd7 is the gsm radio i think21:12
arrrghhhand /dev/smd1 is cdma?  i might be oversimplifying that.21:12
arrrghhhor just fucking it up, but i know the SMD has to do with the radio lol21:12
Detulehm i don't see any weirdness in the radio log21:14
arrrghhh*shrug*21:15
arrrghhhi'm pretty sure the smd is the serial interface to the radio21:16
arrrghhhor the serial interface that is the radio?21:16

arrrghhhi love the comment21:46
arrrghhh"but really, that's what you want."21:46
Detulei guess that patch is in the mailing 27 kernel as well, but not in 3521:48
Detules/mailing/mainline21:48
arrrghhhhrm21:48
arrrghhh.39 was kinda a copy/paste of .2721:48
arrrghhhfrom what i understand.  .35 was written more from the ground up if you will...21:48
arrrghhhbut i'm sure they pulled things from .35 as well21:50
arrrghhhwoah... that was  really weird21:55
arrrghhhon a phone call, phone actually wakes up quickly and i answer it21:55
arrrghhhhave a convo, phone goes to sleep (arm11 at least, solid green led, screen off) and I hear the "this call is being recorded" as if i hit '4' on an incoming google voice call (which this was)21:56
arrrghhhphone is still sleeping... wth.21:56
arrrghhhso i finish up my call, wake the phone and it's not in a call?21:56
arrrghhhi try to swipe the notification bar, and it kinda hangs... then soft resets to winmo lol21:57

jonpryDetule, why would smd_close get called?22:54
Detuleno clue don't see anything in the dmesg preceeding it22:55
arrrghhhi'm sure he would like to know22:55
Detulei have two logs saved form instances when my phone slows down to a crawl and it's in both dmesg22:56
Detulei just recompiled the kernel without that line in smd_close22:56

jonpryDetule there was a hyc patch regarding smd hangup at some point23:01
jonpryfrom what i can tell that comment is correct though. not keeping smd channels open has a way of killing arm9 and forcing a reboot.23:02
jonpryand it doubtful that you really dont want a phone  call so bad that you don't want it to reboot the phone23:03
arrrghhhyou obviously don't know who is calling me jonpry23:03
jonprylol23:04
jonpryanywho this is no good: pppd: page allocation failure. order:4, mode:0x4d023:04
jonprythats the same old phone out of memory kind of stuff23:04

arrrghhhlol23:06
arrrghhhi think that's a yes23:06
jonprywho call z_decomp_alloc?23:06
jonpryand wth is that23:06
jonpryugh z_decomp_alloc tried to get 64kb. that will never work23:08
jonpryDetule, maybe you can apply something like this? http://pastebin.com/GdZQTavs23:10
jonprypersonally i have had bad luck with getting vmalloc to work23:11
Detulei saw that, i think it's there23:11
Detulealready23:11
Detulewait no23:11
Detulenevermind23:11
jonpryapparently not23:11
Detulei saw another patch23:11
Detuleis there any way i can force the smd channel to reset23:12
Detuleit seems to precipitate the problem23:12
jonprynot that i know of23:13
Detuleor maybe i have the causality reveresed23:13
jonprylooks like ppp_deflate is using vmalloc, but iirc that is just a define for kmalloc on newer kernels23:14
jonpryi think its that somehow the data smd channel is dying and being brought back up23:15
jonprycould be pppd in userland being killed for all i know23:16
jonprythen when it comes back up. ppp_deflate needs to allocate memory again, but this gets harder and harder as the system has uptime23:16
jonpryso lifes good near boot. but 8 hours later a pppd restart kills it23:17
Detulethat makes sense23:17
jonprymaybe remove deflate from the .config?23:18
jonpryprobably of limited utility anyways23:18
Detulei guess our ppp is not compressed?23:20
jonpryi think that stuff gets negotiated23:21
jonpryit may not work without deflate. but if it does there will be no kmalloc problems :p23:21
Detulecool, i'll give it a go tomorrow23:21
Detulethanks23:21
