[14:01:20] <FiftyOneFifty> Got the ZipIt back together with the custom cover logo, RootNexus sans desktop and a swapfile rather than a swap partition. Seems to work great so far. Thought I'd borked the WiFi but it turns out it it's the router

[14:38:41] <creazur> aliosa27: What kernel version are you using on your project and where could I get it?
[14:39:09] <aliosa27> for the older rootfs it is 2.6.29-r2
[14:39:14] <aliosa27> its in the openzipit svn
[14:39:34] <aliosa27> now im working on 2.6.33
[14:39:46] <creazur> OK, thx a lot ^^
[14:40:00] <creazur> We've been trying to get sounds working with no success...
[14:40:08] <aliosa27> what kernel
[14:40:19] <creazur> 2.6.29
[14:40:34] <aliosa27> what rootfs
[14:40:47] <creazur> Side-Track
[14:41:06] <creazur> Based on the Rootnexus' release
[14:41:19] <aliosa27> downloadable?

[14:41:59] <creazur> Sorry about that.
[14:42:03] <creazur> http://www.irongeek.com/i.php?page=security/zipit-z2-hacking-userland-side-track
[14:42:57] <Guerilla_> it uses kernel image with md5sum starting d32
[14:43:18] <creazur> http://rayhaque.blogspot.com/2009/12/alsa-driver-and-utilities-for-zipit-z2.html That's the ALSA driver that I've also tried to get in, but kernel vermagic doesn't apply
[14:45:11] <Guerilla_> i wonder why, when we flash our z2 with kernel image that comes with the rootfs package, we still get complains from rootfs about kernel version mismatch
[14:47:38] <aliosa27> i will take a look when i get home
[14:47:41] <aliosa27> writing to a card now
[14:47:46] <aliosa27> dont have zipit here
[14:48:08] <creazur> OK, thanks already for the help

[17:44:17] <FiftyOneFifty> It's maybe a bit faster, haven't run any tests

[20:21:30] <capitalsown> Hey anyone know if the zipit's Mplayer can play ogg's?
[20:28:13] <muriani> the native one?
[20:28:24] <muriani> or mplayer in rootnexus?
[20:28:32] <muriani> mplayer should have ogg support
[20:28:39] <muriani> as well as flac, m4a, etc I think
[20:28:54] <muriani> unless it's specifically compiled out.
[20:29:06] *** zmj|zipit has quit IRC
[20:30:08] *** zmj|zipit has joined #zipit
[20:31:06] <muriani> zmj..
[20:31:30] <capitalsown> Yeah I'm just trying to get a smooth playback on my zipit
[20:31:39] <capitalsown> the video always runs a lot slower than the audio
[20:31:54] <muriani> zmeiat-joro?
[20:32:09] <muriani> aka zombie-monkey?
[20:32:26] <muriani> capitalsown: that sounds like an issue with the video decoding
[20:32:40] <muriani> you probably need to encode with something like xvid, and at a much lower bitrate.
[20:33:55] <capitalsown> Any programs you guys recommend for converting avi to ogg
[20:34:18] *** SDuensin has joined #zipit
[20:36:50] <muriani> ogg what?
[20:36:52] <muriani> vorbis?
[20:36:54] <muriani> theora?
[20:37:16] <muriani> there's really no reason to go from avi to ogg containers.
[20:37:23] <muriani> you're really not going to gain any speed.
[20:38:22] *** capitalsown has quit IRC
[20:38:39] <muriani> I'd focus more on transcoding to lower res+bitrate video, and probably dropping the audio to a lower quality mp2, 96kbit or something
[20:38:46] <muriani> or you could ping out
[20:59:07] *** pranav has joined #zipit
[21:00:37] <pranav> hi folks, i'm considering buying a zipit and was wondering if it has support for 3 things 1. voip client to make voice calls 2. microphone input 3. usb connector .... any suggestions would be helpful...thx
[21:03:06] *** dTal has quit IRC
[21:04:06] *** dTal has joined #zipit
[21:06:24] <muriani> no USB connector atm
[21:06:29] <muriani> not sure about mic
[21:06:40] <muriani> and as far as voip... dunno, compile one?
[21:06:44] <muriani> see what's available in debian
[21:07:26] <pranav> oh ok...yahoo msgr does support VOIP ... not sure if it works on zipit?
[21:08:31] <pranav> has any one tried any voip client on zipit? like yahoo msgr or msn or skype?
[21:08:39] *** dTal has quit IRC
[21:09:33] *** dTal has joined #zipit
[21:32:16] <muriani> we've used pidgin, which supports chat on those protocols, dunno about voip though
[21:32:27] <muriani> remember, this is a rather low-powered linux-based device.
[21:32:42] <muriani> anything that doesn't have available source code will likely not be available.
[21:38:08] <pranav> @muriani: yeah, i know it is low-powered...may be i should compile some open source voip client for zipit and try it out...
[21:38:08] <SB-Zipit> pranav: Error: "muriani:" is not a valid command.
[21:39:16] *** capitalsown has joined #zipit
[21:39:19] <capitalsown> Hiya everyone
[21:39:25] <capitalsown> I have a small problem
[21:39:47] <capitalsown> I'm trying to play a video, but sound is playing out of both the headphones and the internel speaker
[21:39:52] *** dTal has quit IRC
[21:49:58] *** Adnyxo has quit IRC
[21:52:04] <muriani> capitalsown: that's a known issue
[21:52:15] <muriani> you can mute one or the other in alsamixer
[21:52:40] <muriani> I think there's a patch somewhere that adds a script to do that when it detects headphones being plugged in
[21:52:49] <muriani> but I've only heard of its existence, I dunno where it is.
[21:53:03] <muriani> you'll have to wait for some others to show up
[21:53:11] <muriani> also, from earlier:
[21:53:27] <muriani> you probably need to encode with something like xvid, and at a much lower bitrate.
[21:53:34] <muriani> avi is fine
[21:53:48] <muriani> you really don't need to convert to ogg formats
[21:55:58] <capitalsown> Oh ok thanks
[21:56:07] <capitalsown> doing it manually in alsa is fine
[21:56:09] <capitalsown> I don't need a script
[22:07:12] <pranav> hey folks, i was reading the reviews on amazon..how much does the device really cost? $50 or $150? i'm really confused....
[22:10:15] <wickz2> average price of $50 new
[22:10:32] *** marex has joined #zipit
[22:11:37] <pranav> oh ok...thx wickz2
[22:12:32] *** Aelius has joined #zipit
[22:13:41] <Aelius> hey guys, how simple would streaming from an ntfs share be?
[22:13:57] <Aelius> might as well set up an http server I guess
[22:17:16] <Aelius> when did the headphone jack start working?
[22:17:24] <Aelius> I thought that was unaddressed
[22:18:26] <Aelius> rkdavis, are you aware of this? I could swear jagph was telling me it didnt work at all
[22:20:07] <Aelius> hmm but the audio also comes out of the main speaker as well.. lol

[23:56:54] <marex> Aelius, you can mount ntfs from linux ... as any other FS
[23:59:19] <Aelius> understood, but i was asking about how easy / good would streaming video over samba shares be
