Hey! Does anyone have ideas about how to get alsa sounds working on rootnexus or side-track userland images? |
| [07:17:23] |
<creazur> |
Is it even possible ATM? |

<valium1> |
wow, record low for users |
| [08:50:23] |
<valium1> |
has anyone used the latest rootnexus build? |
| [08:50:58] |
<valium1> |
I get a segfault whenever I try to run apt-get or aptitude |
| [08:56:04] |
<creazur> |
Same thing with me on rootnexus and side-track |
| [08:59:58] |
<rkdavis> |
valium1: / creazur how much swap partition do you have? |
| [09:00:27] |
<rkdavis> |
from watching this channel it seems that too small a swap seems to cause probs with apt |
| [09:00:42] |
<creazur> |
rkdavis: Problem is that I cant get swap working... |
| [09:00:44] |
<valium1> |
rkdavis: you know, thats a good question, I used the 1GB image on a 1 GB card |
| [09:00:57] |
<valium1> |
I used his RC0 with no problems |
| [09:00:57] |
<rkdavis> |
valium1: hmmmm you should have enough then |
| [09:01:06] |
<rkdavis> |
creazur: how so? |
| [09:01:26] |
<valium1> |
actually it said segmentation faultsts |
| [09:01:38] |
<rkdavis> |
valium1: if dTal appears, he knows alot about apt and rootnexus etc. he might be able to help you |
| [09:01:39] |
<creazur> |
I have tried rootnexus and now running side-track and neither one activates swap... |
| [09:02:24] |
<creazur> |
Clean install on image to card |
| [09:02:36] |
<rkdavis> |
creazur: weird, first report of that i've seen. probably the same answer as to valium1 -- try to grab dTal when he's around if you haven't got a solution before then |
| [09:02:54] |
<rkdavis> |
but weird |
| [09:02:54] |
<valium1> |
rkdavis: I'd be using the older release if I hadn't misplaced it, he's locked up all but one of the releases |
| [09:03:13] |
<creazur> |
There are four of us that share same problems |
| [09:03:17] |
<rkdavis> |
valium1: yup he was including some roms files that perhaps he shouldn't have |
| [09:03:44] |
<creazur> |
Also alsa sounds dont work. And wifi connection has to be made manually |
| [09:03:45] |
<valium1> |
shouldn't because of hte copyright issues, or shouldn't because of the racism? |
| [09:04:05] |
<rkdavis> |
racism????????? eh? |
| [09:04:16] |
<valium1> |
Super KKK Bros. was the NES rom |
| [09:04:36] |
<rkdavis> |
lol |
| [09:04:59] |
<creazur> |
rkdavis: One WiFi connection file suggests essid as ih8niggers |
| [09:05:14] |
<rkdavis> |
valium1: but it was copyright issues, it's really not a good idea to incl. roms in stuff |
| [09:05:49] |
<valium1> |
rkdavis: Funny, it has super mario world in it now. |
| [09:09:53] |
<creazur> |
Any idea when aliosa27 would be publishing next release? |
| [09:10:27] |
<valium1> |
I dunno, made a change in the sourceforge 2 weeks ago, but the release is still from sept. |
| [09:11:07] |
<valium1> |
rkdavis: I did some probing with my test equipment, the zipit2 is definitely NOT using SPI |
| [09:11:14] |
<creazur> |
valium1: K, been thinking that it could be worth testing since rootnexus has had so many problems on me... |
| [09:11:46] |
<valium1> |
creazur: the RC0 worked great for me, after applying the script patches. |
| [09:12:21] |
<creazur> |
Hmm... What does the script patches include? |
| [09:12:23] |
<valium1> |
this latest though, I dunno what to say, I kind of need apt to be working |
| [09:12:38] |
<valium1> |
it was basically power management |
| [09:12:49] |
<creazur> |
K |
| [09:13:03] |
<rkdavis> |
creazur: do you have another sd card you can install another rootfs on for a bit? |
| [09:13:52] |
<creazur> |
Dont have yet, and currently Im in classroom. |
| [09:14:10] |
<rkdavis> |
creazur: if you do put aliosa's debian on it and see if apt is workign on that one, apt and swap |
| [09:14:57] |
<valium1> |
for petes sakes, WHY did they used miniSD, I have never seen a miniSD slot on anything but this. |
| [09:15:33] |
<rkdavis> |
valium1: because of when it was designed (2006) when minisd was the most common sd format |
| [09:15:45] |
<rkdavis> |
but that is about the biggest complaint |
| [09:15:47] |
<valium1> |
there is enough room on the board that they COULD have put a full size SD slot or at least gone down to micro |
| [09:16:01] |
<creazur> |
Ive been kind of waiting the next release from aliosa. But maybe I should try older to see if it would work |
| [09:16:32] |
<rkdavis> |
yup i'm waiting for aliosa's next release, at least for one of my zipits |
| [09:19:07] |
<valium1> |
rkdavis, do you think it would be at all possible to just use the zipit2-audio+x+mouse.gz on it's own? |
| [09:19:09] |

nogitsune has joined #zipit |

<valium1> |
yay, writing aliosa27's 1GB image |
| [09:27:24] |
<rkdavis> |
valium1: on it's own? |
| [09:28:22] |
<valium1> |
rkdavis: as in, without all the extra thats in the full 1GB image, I'm just a little confused why both are needed, the only thing the smaller file is used for, it for the kernel |
| [09:28:59] |
<rkdavis> |
both are needed? they are two different rootfs |
| [09:29:11] |
<rkdavis> |
one is oe based and one is debian based |
| [09:29:42] |
<rkdavis> |
zipit2-audio...... is an oe based rootfs and debian/rootnexus/side-track are debian based ones |
| [09:29:50] |
<rkdavis> |
you just choose one or the toher |
| [09:30:07] |
<valium1> |
understood |
| [09:30:47] |
<valium1> |
another stupid question, know of a way to completely erase an SD card? |
| [09:35:30] |
<rkdavis> |
valium1: in windows use the panasonic sdformatter |
| [09:35:48] |
<rkdavis> |
in linux wipe the partition table and redo |
| [09:36:55] |
<valium1> |
ok, I just realized that I've got this partition hanging around thats breaking my image writes |
| [09:38:03] |
<valium1> |
physdiskwrite and allimage don't complain, they just exit silently |
| [09:38:26] |
<valium1> |
so it DOES write the image, but chops part of the swap off |
| [09:38:39] |
<valium1> |
while the partition table reports the full size |
| [09:38:54] |
<valium1> |
this may be part of the problem |
| [09:40:22] |
<creazur> |
valium1: Gotta check that one also on my card |
| [09:40:33] |
<creazur> |
Thx for the idea |
| [09:42:04] |

Just start with the default Gnome. You can change it later if it's too heavy. |

Is there a good way to speed up apt on the zipit? It takes a long time on the building dependencies stage. |
| [20:23:06] |
<wicknix2> |
add more swap and dont have any other apps running while using apt is about the best you can hope for |
| [20:23:43] |
<hunternet93> |
ok |
| [20:23:52] |
<hunternet93> |
i have 256 megs of swap right now |
| [20:24:05] |
<hunternet93> |
isn't the zipit supposed to have 32 megs of memory? |
| [20:24:11] |
<wicknix2> |
not the most powerfull unit, surprised it handles as much as it does. |
| [20:24:14] |
<wicknix2> |
yep |
| [20:24:26] |
<hunternet93> |
on my zipit free -m reports only 28 |
| [20:24:36] |
<wicknix2> |
thats normal |
| [20:25:02] |
<wicknix2> |
no ram and/or hard drive is actually the size listed. always a bit less |
| [20:25:13] |
<hunternet93> |
oh it uses a ramdisk or something? |
| [20:25:18] |
<wicknix2> |
think they messure them in bits rather than bytes |
| [20:25:25] |
<wicknix2> |
measure* |
| [20:25:31] |
<hunternet93> |
ah |
| [20:25:50] |
<hunternet93> |
its a good handheld for 50 bucks |
| [20:25:57] |
<wicknix2> |
yeah cant complain |
| [20:26:14] |
<hunternet93> |
i like it as i don't have to be too careful with it. its expendable ;) |
| [20:26:20] |
<wicknix2> |
ben nanonote is $99 and doesnt even have built in wireless |
| [20:26:42] |
<wicknix2> |
so yeah zipit is a good deal |
| [20:28:01] |
<wicknix2> |
and the fact it can handle youtube videos (even though its kind of a hack) is insane |
| [20:29:33] |
<wicknix2> |
anyway, shower then off to fetch me some green beer. see ya. |
| [20:36:40] |
<hunternet93> |
Anyone have any multiplayer online games in mind that can run on the zipit? |
