w00t my microSD card with miniSD adapter & more is here |
| [11:50:08] |
<switchcat> |
okay my zipit knows the card is there, it detected it and said "database ready" |
| [11:50:13] |
<switchcat> |
whatever that means |
| [11:57:16] |
<echelon> |
that's just for your mp3's i think |
| [11:57:40] |
<echelon> |
you can put it to better use with the shell hack/openembedded |
| [12:19:18] |
<switchcat> |
yeah I'm not gonna use OE or anothr alternative kernel until there's a decently working binary distro, but I definitely want to try the shell hack so I can get various things working under it |
| [12:38:25] |
<echelon> |
the shell hack doesn't use any alternative kernel |
| [12:41:30] |
<switchcat> |
yes I know that is why I said I was gonna do the shell hack but not the OE |
| [12:58:56] |
<echelon> |
so you're going to get buildroot? |
| [13:09:35] |
<switchcat> |
I have to research all this stuff now |
| [13:20:57] |
<echelon> |
http://zipit2system.sourceforge.net/?page_id=115 |
| [13:23:12] |
<switchcat> |
is that more recent/updated than whats on linux.zipitwireless.com? |
| [13:23:54] |
<echelon> |
linux.zipitwireless.com tells you to get openembedded |
| [13:24:36] |
<echelon> |
those are the instructions for buildroot |
| [13:31:02] |
<switchcat> |
hmmm if I'm just going to install the shell hack and the links hack it looks like I dont really need buildroot |
| [13:34:21] |
<echelon> |
is that all you need? |
| [13:34:47] |
<echelon> |
btw, the ssh client on the z2 shell hack is called 'dbclient' |
| [13:34:56] |
<echelon> |
had a hell of a time figuring that out |
| [13:50:59] |
<switchcat> |
well ssh will do me pretty well.. with that, I can get to my email, and to an irc client if I need it, and with links I can browse the web |
| [13:51:39] |
<switchcat> |
it would be nice to have a graphical browser, but I suspect that that is more than I personally would be capable of setting up |
| [13:52:42] |
<switchcat> |
I could use a text editor.. |
| [13:57:39] |
<switchcat> |
I could use nethack, but I hate playing the text version, I much prefer graphical tiles |
| [14:09:14] |
<switchcat> |
it would be nice to have a yahoo chat and an AIM that archives messages in the same way as the ones on my main system do... |
| [14:09:25] |
<switchcat> |
er, yahoo messenger, not chat |
| [14:09:51] |
<switchcat> |
but I use gyache-improved which is an X program, and pidgin/gaim |
| [16:08:08] |
<echelon> |
never heard of gyache? ^_- |
| [16:36:26] |
<echelon> |
oh, yahoo |
| [16:36:48] |
<echelon> |
you can just use bitlbee |
| [16:38:05] |
<echelon> |
of course it's only for text chat |
| [16:38:42] |
<echelon> |
if someone actually works out the audio, you could probably do voice chat aswell |

gyach was the original program (g yahoo chat) then there were forks, gyachi and gyache |
| [20:09:18] |
<switchcat> |
currently gyache-improved is the best one |
| [20:09:42] |
<switchcat> |
thats the best yahoo messenger/chat client I have found |
| [20:09:55] |
<switchcat> |
it does the webcams and everything pretty much |
| [20:29:31] |
<echelon> |
writing open source clients for proprietary networks/protocols seems a bit backwards |
| [20:29:52] |
<echelon> |
you're just encouraging them to go on with what they're doing |
| [20:30:02] |
<echelon> |
instead people should be creating alternatives |
| [20:30:43] |
<echelon> |
sip/aix is more than capable of handling video/voice |
| [20:43:25] |
<switchcat> |
no offense but yahoo's been about it since the mid 90s, and has both run their shop on open source AND supported open source development |
| [20:44:13] |
<switchcat> |
anyways I go where the people are |
