<echelon> |
AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! |
| [03:16:06] |
<echelon> |
the zipits are sold out! |
| [03:17:31] |
<Foxx> |
buah!? |
| [03:17:57] |
<echelon> |
the $30 z2a's from amazon |
| [03:18:13] |
<echelon> |
i was waiting for my amazon card :'( |
| [03:18:21] |
<Foxx> |
the z2a is the one that requres the monthly service, right? |
| [03:18:37] |
<Foxx> |
cause i dont remember if mine said z2a or just Zipit Z2 |
| [03:18:43] |
<echelon> |
yeah, but who cares about that if you're going to replace the software |
| [03:18:58] |
<Foxx> |
yeah, but its nice to still have the option |
| [03:19:20] |
<echelon> |
nah, it would be a waste of space |
| [03:19:30] |
<Foxx> |
i got mine from some offshot 3rd party vendor hoping they are just lowering their stock prices |
| [03:19:44] |
<Foxx> |
well, i do plan on using it for AIM/MSN/etc |
| [03:19:45] |
<echelon> |
i'll just have to bid for it on ebay like a sucker.. like everyone else :\ |
| [03:19:56] |
<Foxx> |
hell, if it had IRC on it by default, there isnt much more i could ask for |
| [03:19:56] |
<echelon> |
Foxx: that's what bitlbee is for |
| [03:20:28] |
<Foxx> |
bitlbee? |
| [03:21:07] |
<Foxx> |
... interesting! |
| [03:21:18] |
<echelon> |
it's an aim/msn/yahoo/jabber gateway that's accessible through irc clients |
| [03:21:18] |
<Foxx> |
its an BNC that piped IRC over AIM/MSN/ETC |
| [03:21:23] |
<echelon> |
yeah |
| [03:21:29] |
<Foxx> |
ill need to play with that |
| [03:21:33] |
<Foxx> |
im a bit of an IRC whore |
| [03:21:34] |
<echelon> |
:) |
| [03:21:56] |
<echelon> |
so.. know where to get a cheap z2? |
| [03:22:17] |
<Foxx> |
not at all, sorry |
| [03:22:23] |
<Foxx> |
as soon as i saw the $50 offer i kinda hopped on it |
| [03:22:34] |
<echelon> |
yeah.. ok |
| [03:22:52] |
<echelon> |
well,you missed out on the $30 one |
| [03:22:55] |
<Foxx> |
i was going to wait for the amazon card too, but i deviced to roll the dice and hope if i got it soon enough i might not get a locked down monthly service Z2 |
| [03:23:06] |
<Foxx> |
actaully, i think it was $37 chipped |
| [03:23:11] |
<Foxx> |
shipped* |
| [03:23:36] |
<echelon> |
yeah, i keep getting it mixed up. $30 off.. $8 total |
| [03:24:03] |
<Foxx> |
hell, i still need to finish my Z1 |
| [03:24:13] |
<Foxx> |
too many gizmos, not enough time to hack them |
| [03:24:37] |
<Foxx> |
hell, i got two Z1s |
| [03:24:44] |
<echelon> |
i have to finish my biquad antenna tomorrow |
| [03:24:46] |
<Foxx> |
i got one off ebay for $4 |
| [03:25:27] |
<Foxx> |
that wouldnt happen to be based off my CD spindle design, would it? |
| [03:25:40] |
<echelon> |
i got the antenna kit so i could get a signal for my z2 while i was outside :( |

ive got a few of these going |
| [03:28:19] |
<Foxx> |
if you use gorilla glue (expanding water tight glue) you can make these things water/weather tight |
| [03:28:27] |
<echelon> |
cool |
| [03:28:42] |
<echelon> |
i don't intend to place it outside though |

if you are interested in 2.4ghz stuff, check out BsoD episode 14 - current |

kk |
| [03:29:02] |

you sir, have been ripped the fuck off... |
| [03:31:22] |
<echelon> |
lol |
| [03:31:27] |
<echelon> |
comes with a pigtail :\ |
| [03:31:35] |
<Foxx> |
watch my segment, please |
| [03:31:45] |
<echelon> |
would've cost me more if i ordered them separately |
| [03:31:56] |
<echelon> |
*the parts |
| [03:32:13] |
<Foxx> |
you will destory the PCB once you try to solder the pipe on |
| [03:32:27] |
<Foxx> |
and the dirven element breaks off way too easy |
| [03:32:35] |
<Foxx> |
ive tried that method, its flawed... |
| [03:32:52] |
<Foxx> |
the CD spindle method is really easy, and reliable |
| [03:33:08] |
<Foxx> |
and with a CD spindle top, the driven 'bow tie' element is well protected from damage |
| [03:35:37] |
<echelon> |
hmm |
| [03:35:44] |
<Foxx> |
by far th ebiquad is my favorite design |
| [03:35:56] |
<Foxx> |
size vs' gain, its excelent |
| [03:36:10] |
<Foxx> |
put it on the arm of a satellite dish |
| [03:36:14] |
<Foxx> |
.... a three foot one |
| [03:36:18] |
* |
Foxx laughs menicaly |
| [03:36:29] |
<Foxx> |
ive gotten above 30dB of gain |
| [03:36:52] |
<Foxx> |
add that to a DD-WRT enabled Linksys WRT45G series router with 280mW output power |
| [03:37:00] |
<Foxx> |
instead of the stock ~20mw |
| [03:37:13] |
<Foxx> |
Hello? Cancer? its me... Foxx. |
| [03:37:56] |
<echelon> |
i don't have a dish :\ |
| [03:38:03] |
<Foxx> |
i have a pile |
| [03:38:14] |
<Foxx> |
im sure you can find someone on craigs list thats thrwing theirs out |
| [03:38:18] |
<Foxx> |
or find one in the trash |
| [03:38:22] |
<Foxx> |
thats where i get mine |
| [03:38:28] |
<Foxx> |
then again, i live in NYC |
| [03:38:35] |
<Foxx> |
so people toss a lot of stuff out |
| [03:40:13] |
<Foxx> |
what state do you live in? |
| [03:40:33] |
<Foxx> |
if you really have a chubby for one, cover shipping and i can send one out to you |
| [03:41:25] |
<echelon> |
i just need a something that reaches my backyard.. a dish would be a bit excessive atm |
| [03:41:40] |
<Foxx> |
excessive, i dont know the meaning of the word! lol |
| [03:41:47] |

i don't need people from a mile away leeching off my wireless.. i'm using a patched driver for my wireless card and it doesn't have wep/wpa support yet |
| [03:43:17] |

ive been into radio for quite some time |
| [03:43:42] |
<Foxx> |
ham radio, home made transmitters, scanners, all that jazz |
| [03:43:55] |
<Foxx> |
and i love building stuff |
| [03:44:22] |
<Foxx> |
so wifi is a good mix of radio RF design, and computer naughtyness |
| [03:44:28] |
<echelon> |
i'm using a 367mhz cpu/24mb ram _desktop_ as my wireless AP |
| [03:47:27] |
<Foxx> |
i modded one of my Bluetooth sticks with a waveguide |
| [03:47:51] |
<Foxx> |
(episode 18) |
| [03:48:01] |
<Foxx> |
i hooked that to the end of one of my dishes |
| [03:48:14] |
<Foxx> |
hah! tell me my bluetooth headset gos out of range now, you silliy little son of a bitch! |
| [03:48:15] |

Haven't gotten OE to compile yet |

i see it runs X in raw Frambuffer just to do one shell at a time |

from what the site says |
| [11:27:43] |
<Foxx> |
by my sleeping pills are kicking in |
| [11:28:28] |
<Foxx> |
and im between a personal issue with a friend over PM, Nokia n800 stuff, zipit Z2, and trying to keep my mind together |
| [11:28:45] |
<Foxx> |
and Wii RAM hacking using the USB Gecko |
| [11:29:34] |
<CYoda> |
Yeah I have too many projects going on, I just want the Z2 shell thing working. |
| [11:29:56] |
<Foxx> |
i was hoping the Z2 shell would be t some point graphical |
| [11:30:01] |
<Foxx> |
or at least tabbed shells |
| [11:30:38] |
<Foxx> |
running pidgen would be a nice bitch slap in zipits face though |
| [11:31:19] |
<Foxx> |
id prefer not to have to use IRSSI or nAIM |
| [11:31:44] |
<Foxx> |
we shall see in good time, things come to those who wait |
| [11:31:48] |
<CYoda> |
The screen is pretty small, could you see pidgen well enough on it? |
| [11:32:07] |
<Foxx> |
i dont have a unit in my hands, so i dont know |
| [11:32:13] |
<Foxx> |
on my nokia n800 its not half bad at all |
| [11:34:59] |
<Foxx> |
the original Z1 IM Client wasnt half bad |
| [11:35:33] |
<CYoda> |
I never used it |
| [11:35:45] |
<Foxx> |
i have one that requres the 5 wire serial flash |
| [11:35:58] |
<Foxx> |
im saving that fr my 'final unit' |
| [11:36:04] |
<Foxx> |
i buy two ofd hackable stuff |
| [11:36:11] |
<Foxx> |
one is a 'dev unit' |
| [11:36:21] |
<Foxx> |
the other isan 'ooops, i broke the dev unit' |
| [11:36:59] |
<Foxx> |
so one of them is on Dr. Foxxenstiens slab getting worked on |
| [11:37:03] |
<Foxx> |
the other is stock |
| [11:37:11] |
<Foxx> |

yes, finally |
| [13:16:15] |
<T0mW> |
I drove in yesterday, heh, all day. |
| [13:16:19] |
<CYoda> |
Is your friend ok? |
| [13:16:28] |
<CYoda> |
Yesterday was a nice day to drive |
| [13:16:41] |
<T0mW> |
yes, b!tch!ng and complaining, but otherwise he is ok. |
| [13:17:11] |
<T0mW> |
it was a good trip, I really needed a "roadtrip"! |
| [13:17:42] |
<T0mW> |
bought 4 new tires for the car while I was down there so the ride back was very good. |
| [13:20:35] |
<Foxx> |
what happened to your friend that requred a roadtrip? |
| [13:20:41] |
<Foxx> |
if you dont mind me asking |
| [13:20:55] |
<T0mW> |
small tumor behind his left eye |

jebus, that sucks |
| [13:21:19] |
<Foxx> |
all is well now? |
| [13:21:36] |
<T0mW> |
blinding headaches, dizzyness |
| [13:22:10] |
<Foxx> |
i have cerebal swelling that causes pressure behind my orbital lobes from time to time |
| [13:22:16] |
<Foxx> |
i know how much that sucks |
| [13:22:34] |
<T0mW> |
yes, they don't think it is malignant. So he just needs rest and to recover. He refused to stay in the hospital and to relax at home for several days. |
| [13:22:58] |
<Foxx> |
yeah, you cant relax in the hospital |
| [13:23:09] |
<T0mW> |
no, people die there... |
| [13:25:23] |
<T0mW> |
so, the hospital relented, shot him up with Demerol, gave him a handfull of Oxycotin and kicked him out. ;) |
| [13:25:49] |
<T0mW> |
they decided not to keep him and threw him back |
| [13:26:04] |
<Foxx> |
well, send him our best wishes and hardware hacks ;} |
| [13:27:25] |
<T0mW> |
he is not into technology at all. While I was down there, he asked me if I knew anything about "that digital tv thing my brother got for me". heh, he had 5 fuzzy analog channels on rabbit ears, when I left, he had 16 crystal clear digital channels. |
| [13:27:41] |
<T0mW> |
first time I've played with digital tv stuff, it is interesting. |

as soon as i move out of this NYC apartment i want to take my general |
| [13:29:18] |
<Foxx> |
i have no place for an antenna |
| [13:29:28] |
<Foxx> |
and the landlord wont let me put one up |
| [13:29:52] |
<T0mW> |
I just figured that if I was going to get a license then do the best that I could do at getting the highest I could. That way, as I get older I wouldn't have to worry about getting more privileges later. |
| [13:30:21] |
<T0mW> |
Foxx: ever try to load up the bedsprings? |
| [13:30:26] |
<Foxx> |
yeah, turns out they got more lenient on privelages |
| [13:30:45] |
<Foxx> |
lol, no, cant say that i have |
| [13:31:01] |
<T0mW> |
I did that on 10M one night and it did fairly well. |
| [13:31:54] |
<Foxx> |
i ordered a Z2 the other day, it should be here soon |
| [13:31:54] |
<Foxx> |
yay |
| [13:31:59] |
<T0mW> |
there was a baseboard HW heating in the apartment, so, I used that as a station ground, then put the center lead from the tuner onto the bedsprings. |
| [13:32:07] |
<T0mW> |
cool |
| [13:32:13] |
<Foxx> |
i still need to finish my Z1 |
| [13:32:24] |
<Foxx> |
im having issues getting the OpenZipit builtroot kit going |
| [13:32:30] |
<T0mW> |
yeah, Z2 is so much nicer. |
| [13:32:43] |
<Foxx> |
some of the repositories are missing or otherwise not available |
| [13:32:45] |
<T0mW> |
buildroot is so ancient and screwed up. |
| [13:32:49] |
<T0mW> |
yup |
| [13:32:57] |
<Foxx> |
any chance in hell those can get fixed? |
| [13:33:04] |
<T0mW> |
buildroot is a PITA to work with. |
| [13:33:07] |
<Foxx> |
cause im blind with this |
| [13:33:22] |
<T0mW> |
that is why I got away from it and focused on OE. |
| [13:33:28] |
<Foxx> |
yah |
| [13:33:56] |
<Foxx> |
well, i was hoping one of these days you, or someone here might be able to help me get the OpenZipit buildroot going |
| [13:34:09] |
<Foxx> |
and makybe get ROMon built allong with the rest of the build? |
| [13:34:13] |
<Foxx> |
RFMon* |
| [13:34:23] |
<T0mW> |
I figured it this way, to do anything usefull with the Zipit, you needed to put the filesystem on the SD card. And, we have plenty of room on the SD card for stuff. Buildroot is mainly to build teensy filesystems that reside in ROM / Flash |
| [13:34:37] |
<Foxx> |
yah |
| [13:35:22] |
<Foxx> |
i can do the hardware, but im stil learning the software development side of things |
| [13:35:39] |
<Foxx> |
i mainly want nAIM, irssi, minicom, lynx, and rfmon |
| [13:35:53] |
<Foxx> |
the only thing that doesnt come pre-packed with your buildroot is rfmon |
| [13:36:27] |
<Foxx> |
and maybe put back in the original ZipitIM client, if i have the sape and care |
| [13:36:34] |
<Foxx> |
space* |
| [13:36:43] |
<Foxx> |
dont mind the typos, im supposed to be sleeping |
| [13:36:45] |
<T0mW> |
I think that we need to focus on the GUI for the Z2. Text (console) apps should run on the Z2, but the GUI allows us to have more advanced apps. Seems that everyone is focusing on graphical apps. |
| [13:36:58] |
<Foxx> |
yah |
| [13:37:13] |
<Foxx> |
well, i got these two Z1's here and i want to get them functonal |
| [13:37:38] |
<Foxx> |
i put a lot of time and love into them, i want to get them finished |
| [13:38:07] |
<Foxx> |
the primary use for it, besides IM and IRC, is a wifi scanner, SSH, and minicom as a serial terminal to other devices |
| [13:38:15] |
<T0mW> |
well, you are not going to do much with the "original" Zipit client. It is not friendly to the rest of the system. Basically, what zipitwireless did was to seize total system control to run that app. You cannot run it as other than root and it takes over the machine. |
| [13:38:16] |
<Foxx> |
such as an OpenWRT enabled router |
| [13:38:34] |
<Foxx> |
yah, i noticed |
| [13:38:43] |
<Foxx> |
but the ZIM app isnt very important to me |
| [13:38:53] |
<Foxx> |
mainly RFmon, and minicom |
| [13:38:55] |

| [13:39:05] |
<T0mW> |
I want IRC on the Z2 (xchat) |
| [13:39:11] |
<Foxx> |
that would be nice |
| [13:39:19] |
<Foxx> |
if pidgen could run.... |
| [13:39:23] |
<T0mW> |
Thunderbird email |
| [13:39:36] |
<Foxx> |
it would be like spitting in Zipits face with their monthly service fee |
| [13:39:57] |
<Foxx> |
ive got a nokia n800 linux internet tablet/PDA i have been tinkering with |
| [13:39:59] |
<Foxx> |
very nice |
| [13:40:20] |
<T0mW> |
shrug, the unwashed masses have been trained to pay monthly fees: consider cell phones. |
| [13:40:32] |
<Foxx> |
yah |
| [13:41:01] |
<Foxx> |
i see this $50 zipit with monthly fee as a move to give homebrew a better shot while still making profit from normal users |
| [13:41:05] |
<Foxx> |
after all, they are a buisness |
| [13:41:09] |
<T0mW> |
well, I am buying a house. I should close the deal this Tuesday or Wednesday... |
| [13:41:19] |
<Foxx> |
congradulations |
| [13:42:02] |
<Foxx> |
where do you live? |
| [13:42:17] |
<T0mW> |
lot of years renting a small house (600 sq ft) and the new place is 1500 sq ft. There is one room that I am considering making it my workshop / ham station: 19.5' X 15.5' |
| [13:42:37] |
<T0mW> |
Foxx: right now, just outside of Stroudsburg, PA |
| [13:42:47] |
<Foxx> |
nice, i have a 9' x 12' lab right now |
| [13:42:57] |
<CYoda> |
I own a small house. |
| [13:43:01] |
<T0mW> |
yeah, most of my living room is the workshop. |
| [13:43:02] |
<Foxx> |
but its also where the g/f has her clothes storage closet |
| [13:43:12] |
<T0mW> |
CYoda: "owning" is a good thing to do. |
| [13:43:32] |
<CYoda> |
Well, owning things that appreciate is. |
| [13:43:48] |

T0mW was headed off to google for 17M quad antenna to put on the house. |

<Foxx> |
thats a gallery of some of the abomination prototypes that have come from my lab |
| [13:45:31] |
<CYoda> |
T0mW is good at making prototypes |
| [13:46:43] |
<Foxx> |
well, i need to try and get some sort of sleep |
| [13:46:44] |
<Foxx> |
somehow |
| [13:46:49] |
<Foxx> |
insomnia SUCKS |
| [13:47:05] |
<Foxx> |
ill have to poke your brains about the Z1 buildroot sometime soon though |
| [13:47:18] |
<Foxx> |
i really need that going, i want to finish off these damn Z1s' |
| [13:49:06] |
<CYoda> |
Foxx: Your stuff looks hardcore |
| [13:49:49] |
<CYoda> |
Foxx: Do you have likw two WS monitors? |
| [13:52:26] |
<T0mW> |
I might just get two dk3 antennas and mount them as a dipole |
| [13:53:02] |
<T0mW> |
That way, I could do 80M..10M with a rotatable dipole |
| [13:57:24] |
<T0mW> |
Foxx: here is your apartment antenna problem answer, http://www.qsl.net/w4sat/fantenna.htm |
| [13:57:26] |
<T0mW> |
heh |
| [13:58:01] |
<T0mW> |
well, I have lots of work to do to get the house ready to live in. So, the antenna stuff will have to wait until much later. |

T0mW, did you fiddle with xkbd yet - successfully? - or why did you add it to openzipit.org's "build"? |
| [15:01:45] |
<T0mW> |
that is where I left off before I left Tuesday for Tennessee |
| [15:06:15] |
<unrest> |
ah, so no prograss by now i guess? |
| [15:06:27] |
<unrest> |
btw, how was your trip? |
| [15:08:50] |
<T0mW> |
unrest: it was needed. My friend is ok and I got away from here for a while. |
| [15:09:47] |
<unrest> |
sounds like it was not much fun though, T0mW.? |
| [15:30:27] |
<T0mW> |
unrest: no, it was fun, I had to get the heck out of here for a few days! |
| [15:30:43] |
<unrest> |
:) |

unrest yawns |
| [18:29:16] |
<unrest> |
deserted of sorts this channel is.. |
| [18:42:32] |
*** |
alyawn_ is now known as alyawn |
| [18:42:44] |
<alyawn> |
yes... |
| [18:42:55] |
<alyawn> |
I will ask lots of questions when my z2 arrives :) |
| [18:43:10] |
<unrest> |
like? |
| [18:43:45] |
<alyawn> |
like which build/kernel should I use? what's the best way to setup a gui app project |
| [18:43:57] |
<unrest> |
openzipit.org |
| [18:43:59] |
<unrest> |
;) |
| [18:44:32] |
<alyawn> |
yes... I actually got stopped on that right off the bat... |
| [18:44:58] |
<unrest> |
but? |
| [18:45:30] |
<alyawn> |
apparently, the Makefile requires that bash is the shell and on ubuntu, /bin/sh is not bash |
| [18:45:44] |
<alyawn> |
caused headaches... |
| [18:45:59] |
<unrest> |
i use ubuntu, too |
| [18:46:05] |
<alyawn> |
but mostly I've had issues downloading all the stuff... now that make runs, I'm stuck |
| [18:46:13] |
<unrest> |
and i had not much problems with make/bitbake |
| [18:47:37] |
<alyawn> |
is your /bin/sh bash or dash? |
| [18:48:02] |
<unrest> |
it was bash |
| [18:48:04] |
<unrest> |
-bash |
| [18:48:06] |
<unrest> |
dash |
| [18:48:16] |
<alyawn> |
anyway... that issue was easily solved by adding: export SHELL = /bin/bash |
| [18:48:19] |
<alyawn> |
to the top of the file... |
| [18:48:23] |
<unrest> |
but i followed the instructions on "oe and your distro" and it worked fine |
| [18:48:31] |
<unrest> |
no solution... ;) |
| [18:49:22] |
<alyawn> |
I was able to compile the buildroot method described on zipit2system.sf.net |
| [18:49:48] |
<alyawn> |
it only took a few minutes... the OE method takes hours and has always failed |
| [18:49:53] |
<alyawn> |
for me at least |
| [18:51:17] |
<alyawn> |
anyway... it seems the tides are pushing for OE, so that's what I'm trying to build now |
| [18:52:02] |
<unrest> |
which is what i'd recommend - and others in here, too |
| [18:52:03] |
<unrest> |
;) |
| [18:53:36] |
<alyawn> |
not all others :0 |
| [18:53:38] |
<alyawn> |
:) |
| [18:54:00] |
<unrest> |
who not? |
| [18:54:09] |
<alyawn> |
I will never name names :0 |
| [18:54:22] |
<alyawn> |
:) (sloppy typing day) |
| [18:54:35] |
<unrest> |
nvm =) |
| [18:54:59] |
<alyawn> |
anyway, I'll get serious when I have one in my hot little hand |
