[01:02:38] *** needhelp2 has quit IRC
[01:05:08] <ogmious09> Well the Nanonote is for sale only 100 bucks. Looks at that interface on the same specs as the zipit

[06:19:25] *** dTal has joined #zipit
[06:20:24] <dTal> Anyone know what boot script is responsible for setting the keymap in rootnexus?
[06:21:50] <dTal> I rebooted my zipit, and the changes I'd made to /etc/keymap didn't seem to work. Running loadkeys -s /etc/keymap made it all work again, so no big deal, but I'd like to investigate.
[06:22:22] <dTal> I'm sure it's something simple.
[06:26:24] <dTal> I'm getting the impression the whole debian rc script system is kind of overkill for the Zipit.
[06:34:49] *** dur775y332 has joined #zipit
[06:47:56] *** owrflow has quit IRC
[06:52:03] <dTal> Here's a thought: define the lidswitch to be a key.
[06:52:31] <dTal> Then assign it as a modifier with all the other keys to produce void output.
[06:53:20] <dTal> Except for the volume keys, which you could assign it as a modifier to do different things depending on whether the lid were open or closed
[06:53:58] <dTal> (for example, screen brightness when open, volume when closed)

[07:31:05] <dTal> Is the lid switch handling in rootnexus RC2 different than rc1?
[07:31:33] <dTal> and if so, how does it work?

[09:21:49] <rkdavis> aliosa27: my mips experience is a few years old but it shouldn't take long
[09:22:13] <rkdavis> i was using VR4000's alot in the mid 00's and pottered a bit with others a couple of years ago

[09:23:54] <aliosa27> rkdavis: you said you added the nanonote to your amazon wishlist
[09:23:58] <aliosa27> is it on amazon?
[09:24:11] <aliosa27> err buyable from amazon
[09:24:58] <rkdavis> not as far as i know other than via the universal wish list thing
[09:25:37] <dTal> anyone played with rootnexus RC2?
[09:32:39] <s-hell> jep
[09:33:40] <dTal> how does lid switch handling differ from the previous version?
[09:34:10] <dTal> The release notes say "proper" now, but I don't know what that means.
[09:36:49] <s-hell> for me it didn't worked.
[09:37:15] <s-hell> the display didn't turned off
[09:42:39] <rkdavis> arrgghhhh sinus headache again, been 3 days already -- bet i'm coming down with something
