drmike can you run irc directly off the sd card without flashing the firmware or anything |
| [07:48:11] |
<R_B> |
maybe weechat or something |

<R_B> |
hello drmike |
| [07:59:10] |
<drmikecrowe> |
R_B: In theory, sure. You can load the kernel, load the wifi drivers, and execute the application. Our intent was to transfer control to an application loaded on the SD card |
| [07:59:12] |
<drmikecrowe> |
Hi R_B |
| [07:59:20] |
<R_B> |
ok |
| [07:59:28] |
<drmikecrowe> |
I'm hoping I can get some help in getting OE configured to build apps for this, that we can then just run off the SD card |
| [07:59:28] |
<R_B> |
so you don't even need to open the box then |
| [07:59:29] |
<drmikecrowe> |
Correct. |
| [07:59:31] |
<R_B> |
jeez |
| [07:59:35] |
<R_B> |
will that come in as an upgrade later |
| [07:59:57] |
<drmikecrowe> |
The upgrade shouldn't affect this basic operation. A problem will be when our community needs to update the kernel, or change the bootloader. |
| [08:08:05] |
<R_B> |
ok this all seems very exciting |
| [08:08:06] |
<drmikecrowe> |
I'm hoping that isn't needed, because a kernel change will be much harder for me to get through |
| [08:08:08] |
<R_B> |
o i c |
| [08:08:18] |
<drmikecrowe> |
Exactly! I'm on a mission now to get fbreader running on it ASAP, so I can read some of my ebooks |
| [08:08:20] |
<R_B> |
haha |
| [08:08:21] |
<R_B> |
you use them too? |
| [08:08:21] |
<drmikecrowe> |
Do you have any experience with OE? |
| [08:08:21] |
<R_B> |
no |
| [08:08:21] |
<drmikecrowe> |
All the time |
| [08:08:22] |
<R_B> |
not even a programmer |
| [08:08:30] |
<drmikecrowe> |
Ah, ok. Our longer term goal is to provide applications that a user can install on his SD card and execute |
| [08:08:36] |
<drmikecrowe> |
Have to run an errand--back in about 1h |
| [08:08:39] |
<R_B> |
thats fine, thanks for the info |
| [08:08:40] |
<drmikecrowe> |
