[10:29:58] <drmikecrowe> ethicalclone: You should have full write access as a registered user to the wiki (and I believe svn as well). If you can't update svn, please LMK and I'll correct
[11:49:26] <drmikecrowe> Hi folks, patches on wiki for the z2kernel have been updated (based on GPSfan's inputs). Please review and advise.

[21:33:25] <Rossimo> woot, got SDL working
[21:34:51] <GPSFan> Rossimo: SDL as in http://www.libsdl.org/ ??
[21:34:52] <Rossimo> yes
[21:34:53] <Rossimo> yes indeed
[21:34:57] <GPSFan> any screenshots?
[21:39:50] <Rossimo> um, one sec...
[21:39:53] <Rossimo> well, really all if takes is setting up the right toolchain
[21:39:56] <Rossimo> and the screens still rotated...
[21:40:59] <GPSFan> graphics applications have to deal with the physical rotation themeselves. the fb rotation driver only works in text mode.
[21:41:01] <Rossimo> yeah
[21:41:14] *** drmikecrowe has joined #zipit
[21:41:46] <Rossimo> SDL by default looks for a framebuffer when it is set in SDL_HWSURFACE video mode
[21:41:48] <Rossimo> i'll get these pics up in a sec
[21:42:08] <drmikecrowe> hey Rossimo, what graphics toolkit would we like to see?
[21:42:13] <drmikecrowe> Any consensus?
[21:42:15] <Rossimo> hehe
[21:42:16] <Rossimo> SDL
[21:42:18] <GPSFan> Rossimo: cool, that's real progress. might you document the toolchain you used? and how you managed the libsdl building?
[21:42:20] <Rossimo> yeah
[21:42:22] <GPSFan> ;>)
[21:42:22] <Rossimo> it'll take a while though
[21:42:23] <Rossimo> i'm just using scratchbox
[21:42:23] <GPSFan> no rush.
[21:42:25] <Rossimo> and statically linking everything
[21:42:26] <Rossimo> nothing complicated
[21:42:33] <drmikecrowe> I actually got a OE toolchain built, but need something to test against now. Do we have anything quasi-operating yet?
[21:42:36] <Rossimo> it's just that i have schoolwork due in the next couple days I should be doing. :P
[21:42:44] <Rossimo> well, i've just got an SDL example compiled that displays an image for 2.5 seconds
[21:42:58] <drmikecrowe> very cool -- could you shoot it to me? I'd love to know if this works or not
[21:43:05] <Rossimo> yeah
[21:43:14] <Rossimo> man, these pics are blurry, i'll have to take them again
[21:53:26] <Rossimo> http://linux.zipitwireless.com/attachment/wiki/SDL_Example/z2_sdl_example.zip
[21:54:02] <drmikecrowe> Thanks!
[21:54:04] <Rossimo> np
[21:54:21] <drmikecrowe> What project name do you want me to create?
[21:54:23] <GPSFan> ah, sdl is available as part of buildroot. ;>)
[21:54:40] <Rossimo> for what?
[21:55:02] <drmikecrowe> You were asking for a wiki project. I can create one and make you admin, if you like
[21:58:03] <drmikecrowe> (or more)
[21:58:10] <Rossimo> yeah, um
[21:58:14] <Rossimo> actaully i may need to hold of on that for a bit
[21:58:18] <Rossimo> b/c i'll be switching to lynx
[21:58:19] <drmikecrowe> np -- just LMK what names.
[21:58:19] <Rossimo> instead of links
[21:58:38] <Rossimo> http://img245.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img0933pj8.jpg
[21:58:43] <Rossimo> call one project "lynx"
[21:58:49] <Rossimo> but it'll be a while before i upload anything to it
[21:58:52] <Rossimo> that the clearest i could get the shot
[21:59:06] <GPSFan> Rossimo: you are correct, it's blurry.
[22:04:30] <Rossimo> ugh, thats really the best I can do for a pic
[22:08:28] <Rossimo> http://img505.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img0943zt9.jpg
[22:08:30] <Rossimo> thats the best it's gonna get
[22:15:45] <Rossimo> how do I automatically tack on CFLAGS when compiling software?
[22:18:18] <ethicalclone> for something using autoconf running: CFLAGS="bla" ./configure , should work

[22:56:35] *** Rossimo has quit IRC
[22:59:36] <ethicalclone> I added keyboard info and patch to the zipit wiki: http://linux.zipitwireless.com/projects/z2kernel/wiki/Keyboard
[23:00:01] <drmikecrowe> Cool -- I have engineering preparing some examples showing how to use the audio and wifi kernel modules
