[00:10:18] <walrus45> i found mplayer tucked away on mozzwalds package list. now if i could only remember how i got it to work... :-(
[00:11:39] <elcaset> vlc would is so much better than mplayer. has anyone gotten vlc running on zipit2?
[00:12:53] <walrus45> i think on the ubuntu or sid distro
[00:12:59] <walrus45> i dont recall
[00:13:30] <walrus45> i have never tried vlc in an embedded environment. mplayer worked very well when i had it installed
[00:13:33] <elcaset> ooh, i hope so.
[00:16:30] <walrus45> when i get power back, i am going to try to set up an on the fly transcoder on my server. see if i cant use it for flash vids as well
[01:03:05] * flyback UGH THE STORM IS BACK, FUCK ME

[09:05:34] <walrus45> hey mozz. would it be possible for the scripts to remove you from your current directory and put you somewhere safe, like say /root/ let it do its thing, and then move you back at the end?

[11:15:26] <slug_> I haven't had problems unmounting SD cards, with the overlay scripts, once in a while I have a case where umount doesn't work right, but I think it only happens when the overlay img is on a USB stick
[11:15:46] *** anarsoul has joined #zipit
[11:15:57] <slug_> I always eject from gemenu2x, using the 'e' key
[11:16:42] <slug_> when the USB drive doesn't unmount correctly, I add the -l switch, takes care of it

[23:30:34] <walrus45> gah my system got borked again. all i did was install mplayer, links, and ohboy and the dependencies.
[23:30:50] <walrus45> cant connect to the wireless
[23:30:54] <walrus45> cant even start bash
[23:40:38] <walrus45> either something is wrong with the openwrt base setup, something is wrong with those packages, or perhaps my zipit is loosing it....
[23:41:58] <projectgus> walrus45: you're running gmenu2x? what happens you try to start a bash shell?
[23:42:13] <walrus45> yes
[23:42:38] <walrus45> when i try to start bash, i get the blank terminal with the blinking cursor
[23:42:56] <walrus45> no buttons respond but the home key to open gmenu2x again
[23:43:14] <walrus45> other weird issues like i cannot open roms in ohboy
[23:44:47] <projectgus> walrus45: I'm not familiar with gmenu2x, but is there a 'Run' command? Can you try to 'Run' /bin/sh ?
[23:45:49] <walrus45> something similar
[23:45:59] <walrus45> that i do get the prompt
[23:46:29] <walrus45> i get f/bin/sh: cant access tty; job control turned off
[23:50:54] *** ssieb has joined #zipit
[23:52:10] <projectgus> when you say "blank terminal with blinking cursor" do you mean you see a prompt, or a 100% blank screen?
[23:57:41] <walrus45> 100 percent blank
[23:58:01] <walrus45> black screen wit ha blinking underscore at the top left
