3--> Bagder (~daniel@as3-3-2.ras.s.bonet.se) has joined #rockbox
4--- Topic for #rockbox is Open Source Jukebox Firmware - http://bjorn.haxx.se/rockbox/
5--- Topic for #rockbox set by Zagor at Fri Apr 12 15:45:52
6--> Zagor2 (~bjst@labb.contactor.se) has joined #rockbox
7--- Zagor2 is now known as Zagor
8--> Linus (~linus@labb.contactor.se) has joined #rockbox
9<adiamas> wtf is the story with the makefile?
10<Zagor> there's a story?
11<adiamas> umm.. well.. all the >>>>> and <<<<<< and ======= stuff
12<Zagor> ah, that's a conflict
13<Zagor> you and someone else changed the makefile
14<Zagor> the >>>>>, <<<< and ===== describe the two versions
15<Bagder> which makefile btw?
16<adiamas> uisimulator
17<adiamas> nevermind.. i just did and update on my end...
18<Bagder> ok
19adiamas adi|atWork <adiamas> could someone tell me where their lcd.h is located?
20<adiamas> i don't have one and i need to grab it off a remote box...
21<adiamas> makefile is complaining
22<Bagder> ah
23<Zagor> it's in the firmware module
24<Bagder> I have uisimulator and firmware checked out in the same dir
25<adiamas> ?
26<Bagder> so in the uisim dir I can get it ../firmware/lcd.[ch]
27<adiamas> im really starting to dislike cvs
28<Zagor> rockbox, rockbox/uisimulator, rockbox/firmware
29<adiamas> yeah.. but _i_ don't wanna work on firmware
30<Bagder> you do now ;-)
31<adiamas> but your telling me that i need to pull it down and keep it up to date huh ?
32<Zagor> no but you need that source. we don't want to duplicate it
33<Bagder> because the uisim uses firmware code
34* adiamas giggles
35<adiamas> can't we break it out into another "library" or "common" dir or something?
36<Zagor> and have a third module you need?
37<adiamas> seems that makes more sense..
38<adiamas> nope.. still only be two..
39<adiamas> why should i worry about firmware if i only want to play with the uisim
40<Bagder> thing is, I want the uisim to use as much "real" code as possible
41<adiamas> nods
42<Zagor> because the uisim simulates the firmware
43<adiamas> nods
44<adiamas> okay.. now.. because im stupid.. if i just want to pull the files down and not checkout...
45<adiamas> whats the cvs command?
46<adiamas> or do i co no matter what?
47<Zagor> yes
48<Bagder> there's only checkout, yes
49<adiamas> nod
50<adiamas> im so much more used to sccs :)
51<Bagder> but since you don't modify them, you won't get problems updating them in the future
52<Zagor> sccs is good, but not for widely distributed development
53* adiamas nods
54<adiamas> i understand the use of cvs.. just feels icky cause im not used to it
55<Zagor> widely/wildly
56<Bagder> it takes some getting-used-to, I agree
57--> wavey (~wavey@dlan1431.dircon.co.uk) has joined #rockbox
58<Bagder> hey ho wavey
59--- Zagor is now known as Zagor|work
60<wavey> goodly morning
61<adiamas> hmm... okay.. anyone know wtf firmware/system.h would bitch on uisim compile?
62<adiamas> complaing about the #define \'s
63<Bagder> hm
64<Bagder> lemme check
65<Bagder> what does it say?
66<Bagder> it works here
67<adiamas> gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DGETTIMEOFDAY_TWO_ARGS -DSIMULATOR -DHAVE_LCD_BITMAP -I../firmware -g -c uibasic.c
68<adiamas> In file included from ../firmware/lcd.h:24,
69<adiamas> from lcd-x11.h:24,
70<adiamas> from uibasic.c:36:
71<adiamas> ../firmware/system.h:52: parse error before `volatile'
72<adiamas> ../firmware/system.h:62: stray '\' in program
73<adiamas> and then like 100 iother stray complaints.. but i figure those are ghosts
74<Bagder> what gcc version is this?
75* Bagder suspects the crlf newlines...
76<adiamas> gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release)
77<adiamas> im not switching to the 3.0 series till its aged a bit
78<Bagder> on linux, right?
79<adiamas> yup
80<adiamas> ill tell you if its crlf
81<adiamas> one sec
82<adiamas> looks like it...
83<adiamas> i load it in emacs and it comes in DOS format
84<adiamas> mode rather
85<Bagder> yes
86<Bagder> so try stripping them off and compile and see if that removes the warnings
87<adiamas> ummm.. how do i do that easily?
88<Bagder> tr -d '\015' < system.h >system2.h
89<Bagder> then use the version 2 of course
90<adiamas> yup.. that did it...
91<Bagder> ok
92<Bagder> so we need to be more careful on the newlines
93<adiamas> so when i get diffs on what i do and others do.. clashes and what not.. and we get the <<<<<<<<<< and> >>>>>>> complaints.. how do we resolve those?
94<wavey> the makefile can include a newline checker
95adiamas adi|atWork adiamas adi|atWork <adiamas> thats a good idea
96<Bagder> adiamas: those are conflict markes that appear when you get an update that has changes on the same lines you have changed locally
97<adiamas> right.. i know.. but how do we resolve them...
98<adiamas> ie: you change int i to int duck
99<adiamas> and i want int wolf
100<adiamas> what happens?
101<Bagder> you edit out the "wrong" piece
102<Bagder> and keep the correct
103<adiamas> hehe but which is wrong?
104<Bagder> you need to figure that out
105<Bagder> it's a conflict with your changes
106<Bagder> we can't tell you what's right ;-)
107<adiamas> but it may only be a conflict with my changes because someone elses bug fix may be diff then mine.. and it clear out theres and place mine.. then theirs is in conflict
108<adiamas> and round the wheel turns...
109<Bagder> yes, but that's why you need to pick one of the alternatives. Or write a new approach ;-)
110* adiamas reminds you he's still new to this ;)
111<adiamas> one last question, then bed... is there a way to set my searchable include dirs in my env so that the makefile can find what it needs if things are in diff locations?
112<Bagder> it's possible to pass as arguments to make
113<adiamas> bah.. was trying to avoid that...
114<Bagder> it could be environment variables too
115<Bagder> we should figure out a way to let people do this easily
116* adiamas nods
117<adiamas> fixed.. settled for a symlink and said screw it
118<Bagder> way to go ;-)
119<wavey> adiamas: -IX -IX+1 -IX+2 for your makefile include entry will search X, X+1 and X+2 ..
120<wavey> where X, X+1 and X+2 are include dirs
121<wavey> if i understand your q correctly
122<wavey> so people edit their makefile to include all their includes in the $(INCLUDE) directive
123<wavey> that's how I do it
124<wavey> especially on cygwin, where the includes are all over the place
125<wavey> oh, and I replace the use of -I$(INCLUDES) with simply $(INCLUDES)
126<wavey> to ensure the first -I doesn't translate into -I-IX
127* wavey goes back to OO modelling
128<wavey> of course, we could always use autoconf
129* wavey runs
130<Bagder> hehe
131<adiamas> wavey nah.. that i know.. the part that was issue was the libs..
132<adiamas> yeah.. editing the makefile isn't an issue..
133<adiamas> i just don't want to have to keep fixing it each time i pulled down a clean copy and all
134<adiamas> so i just tossed LIBDIRS in the env
135<adiamas> and do make -e
136* adiamas shrugs
137<wavey> oh, libs - i thought you said includes
138<adiamas> hehe nope...
139<adiamas> im used to makefiles.. just not used to dealing with that on a new starting project :)
140<adiamas> w/ other ppls machines and all
141<wavey> 'is there a way to set my searchable include dirs in my env'
142<wavey> ha
143* wavey knew he wasn't going mad
144<adiamas> hehe sorry...
145<wavey> i think i need bed too
146<Bagder> 1 - 0 to wavey ;-)
147<wavey> but i've been awake only a couple hours
148<adiamas> its 0430 here.. cut me some slack ;)
149<wavey> heh
150<wavey> go
151<wavey> to
152<wavey> bed :)
153<adiamas> can't sleep :(
154<adiamas> this heatwave here is killing me..
155<adiamas> came to quick...
156<wavey> where are you?
157<adiamas> NY state, usa
158<adiamas> bout, 30 mins north of NYC
159<wavey> aha
160<wavey> how hot can it be at 0430?
161<adiamas> hit 93 today at work...
162<wavey> ouch
163<adiamas> yeah...
164<wavey> hope the ac is working
165<adiamas> don't have any
166<adiamas> just a ceiling fan
167<wavey> double ouch
168<adiamas> nods
169<adiamas> i find turning lights off and working by candle makes it cooler (both definitons of cooler)
170* wavey blinks
171<adiamas> besides.. the gf comes up this weekend.. so sweat is a good thing then ;)
172<wavey> heh
173<adiamas> btw.. its no ac at home.. work has it..
174<wavey> ah
175<wavey> glad to hear it
176* Bagder counts, 33.9 celsius = 93 fahrenheit = 307 kelvin
177<wavey> uk has been mild/warm for a few weeks now
178<wavey> s'lovely
179<wavey> had the first rain in ages yesterday
180<Bagder> we have like 9C today... :-/
181<adiamas> hehe we are in a near drought situation already... no lawn watering, town just passed restrictions on pool filling
182<Bagder> wow
183<adiamas> and across america over 100 records were broken due to the high heat
184<wavey> we use CDs in the uk now
185<adiamas> NYC had it's hotest temp on this day in history, for the 3rd day in a row.
186<wavey> they're smaller and shinyier
187* adiamas quirks his head to the side and looks at wavey
188<adiamas> i don't get it.
189<wavey> records broken
190<wavey> cd
191<adiamas> ah..
192<adiamas> heheh
193<wavey> it's late
194<wavey> you're tired
195<adiamas> im ugly too :)
196<wavey> its understandable :)
197<wavey> heheh
198<adiamas> but shhh.. thats a secret
199* Bagder looks at wavey, oooooh that was a pretty bad one ;-)
200<wavey> everyone's beautiful in ascii
201<adiamas> lol... i like that...
202<adiamas> congrats.. you just joined my sig file :)
203<wavey> eheh
204<wavey> heh
205<wavey> in ebcdic however, everyone's a pig
206<Bagder> is that why we've switched to ascii these days then? B-]
207<wavey> yup :)
208<wavey> and frosted mirrors too
209<adiamas> wavey.. whats your real name so i can credit you all proper like :)
210<wavey> stuart martin, if you need the credit. take it for yourself with my pleasure
211<adiamas> btw.. its 70 F here, 21 c
212<adiamas> UV Index:
213<adiamas> 0 Minimal
214<adiamas> heheh
215<adiamas> i wonder why...
216<adiamas> could it be the suns not up?
217<wavey> :)
218<wavey> when is dawn these days?
219<wavey> any of you read scifi?
220<adiamas> dawn as in sun rise or dawn as in the book?
221<Bagder> sunrise in NY 05:12
222<wavey> almost finished two olaf stapledon books. 1930s author - one of his books describes the history of humanity (over 200 000 000 years) and the other describes the history of the universes
223<wavey> both fantastic, btw
224<adiamas> nods
225<Bagder> (according to my psion)
226<wavey> absolutely recommend them
227<adiamas> wavey, feel like mailing me the book names?
228<adiamas> either that.. or msg me them...
229<wavey> 'last and first men'
230<wavey> and 'starmaker'
231<adiamas> nods
232<wavey> the channel is quiet, i'm sure no one cares :)
233<adiamas> got it.
234<adiamas> okay.. bed time
235<adiamas> night all
236<Bagder> night adiamas
237<wavey> see ya
238--- adiamas is now known as adi|sleep
239* Bagder is curious on Linus I2C and MAS work...
240<wavey> i2c?
241<wavey> whassat
242<wavey> ooh, only 15*6 songs left on my random playlist of 3500 songs :)
243<Bagder> that's how to speak to the MAS circuit
244<adi|sleep> one quick note.. did you guys realize there is a key lock on the jbr?
245<wavey> yus
246<wavey> on
247<adi|sleep> nods
248<adi|sleep> hehe i din't :)
249<adi|sleep> back to bed :)
250<wavey> heh
251<wavey> night
252* Bagder has hardly used his recorder yet :-)
253<wavey> we need a tiny math lib for our code
254<Bagder> we do
255<wavey> which projects can we steal it from?
256<Bagder> I dunno actually
257<Bagder> we could probably "steal" function by function
258<Bagder> from BSD or Linux code
259<wavey> sure
260<wavey> be nice if sourceforge allowed a search through open source project's codebases for things
261<wavey> be very useful
262<Bagder> true
263<wavey> make it easier for industry to rip it off as well i guess
264<wavey> not that it doesn't happen already anyway
265<Linus> The I2C is going slow at the moment. But the MAS is responding.
266<Bagder> *cool*
267<Linus> ...occasionally. :-)
268<Bagder> hah
269<Bagder> occasionally cool :-)
270<wavey> heh
271<wavey> what about data structures?
272<wavey> we cutting our own linked lists, etc?
273<Bagder> we could probably use a sensible single implementation for many to use
274<wavey> must be a nice and small and tested-to-hell one in apache or somewhere
275<wavey> yus
276--- Zagor|work is now known as Zagor
277<Bagder> btw, we're having a litte "rockbox" gathering tomorrow
278<Bagder> the stockholm/sweden parts of the rockboxers
279<wavey> how close do you guys live together?
280<Linus> 20km
281<wavey> 'variable pitch control' is that achieveable by the MAS?
282<wavey> (from the mail list)
283<Zagor> nope
284<Zagor> can't be done
285<Bagder> rockbox lunch time
286<PsycoXul> hey you know if the DAC can have 2 channels on at once?
287<Linus> I don't think so. Lemme check.
288<Linus> It seems like we can mix all channels, AUX1 AUX2 and DAC
289<Linus> Cool. Then we can hear the RS232 data when we are debugging. :-)
290--- Zagor is now known as Zagor|lunch
291<PsycoXul> yeah? nice
292--- Zagor|lunch is now known as Zagor
293--- wavey is now known as wav_lunch
294* wav_lunch smiles
295<wav_lunch> timezones. who'd have 'em?
296<Zagor> they're useless
297* Zagor wants to do away with timezones and daylight savings time
298<wav_lunch> yus
299<wav_lunch> one hour, globally
300<wav_lunch> who cares if 0515 is in your afternoon?
301<Zagor> exactly. it's just a bloody number
302* PsycoXul agrees
303<wav_lunch> swatch tried it with Internet Time
304<wav_lunch> only met one person with such a watch though
305<wav_lunch> if the world's consumers had embraced the concept, the governments may have agreed to it
306<wav_lunch> anyhow
307<wav_lunch> lunch
308<Zagor> the problem was that they wanted to alter everyone's sense of time. the changed too much
309<Zagor> people still want 12+12 hour days, 60 hours minutes etc
310--> alkorr (jbcoax@srs04m-2-107.n.club-internet.fr) has joined #rockbox
311<Linus> Welcome Alan!
312<alkorr> hi linus
313<Zagor> hi there
314<alkorr> i have a question
315<Linus> Ask!
316<alkorr> quite now we cannot use other formats than MP3
317<alkorr> not even a WAV file
318<alkorr> the recorder is able to get a linear PCM on digital line
319<Linus> True
320<alkorr> if i'm not wrong, wav format is a PCM-like stream
321<Zagor> yes
322<PsycoXul> wav is usualy just pcm with a header afaik
323<alkorr> my idea is the following
324<alkorr> if we strip unused infos
325<alkorr> and feed internally the digital pin of MAS
326<alkorr> with a PCM stream (using sci0 ?)
327<alkorr> and set MAS for recording
328<alkorr> would you hear this wav playing ?
329<Linus> I don't follow you. Do you want to play WAV files on the recorder?
330<alkorr> a trick which could allow recorder to play wav files (not forgetting possibility of mixing)
331<PsycoXul> i read on the company's website about the player's MAS and they claimed to have pcm playback firmware for that chip anyways, likely the recorder's chip too... of course getting any such things i dunno, never found any downloads etc
332<Linus> The MAS is capable of playing WAV files. You just have to download firmware to it.
333<alkorr> i think it is not free
334<PsycoXul> can archos firmware do whats necessary to download firmware to the MAS?
335<alkorr> i tried to get this addition but without success
336<alkorr> yes it could
337<alkorr> if it have additions to upload
338<alkorr> has
339<alkorr> but i'm doubtful that Archos will buy this addition for its player/recorder.
340<Zagor> i think we need a dsp hacker to the project :)
341<alkorr> of course if we could know what kind of DSP it is and have compilers, it would be great
342<Zagor> yes
343<alkorr> but Micronas are unlikely to reveal anything about this DSP
344<Bagder> why?
345<alkorr> Do you know a lot of company which reveal all the works ?
346<alkorr> their
347<Bagder> what DSP they use is hardly "all the works"
348<alkorr> anyway, companies are not bound for revealing something :)
349<alkorr> perhaps they don't want to let a non Micronas employee to be able to reverse-engineer their works
350<alkorr> they are commercial, not open free :)
351<PsycoXul> well
352<PsycoXul> they DO have a devkit that they supply to their customers
353<PsycoXul> they mention it and some of the things in it
354<PsycoXul> example firmware and such
355<Zagor> yes but if they don't let people write dsp code, who will buy their dsp?
356<alkorr> customers => archos, not final users
357<alkorr> customers must pay for it !
358<Zagor> true
359<PsycoXul> including some voice compression codec decoder and encoder, and pcm player
360<PsycoXul> yeah
361<Bagder> but there are a few customers of the MAS
362<Bagder> perhaps we could ask around
363<PsycoXul> so somebody find a friend of a friend of a friend who works for a customer ...
364<PsycoXul> heh
365<alkorr> okay if you can a smart guy to help for retrieving missing infos and even get tools, that would be great
366<alkorr> find
367<Bagder> getting the tools is probably not legal
368<alkorr> and if he/she is not concerned with a NDA too
369<Bagder> I doubt all customers sign NDAs to buy the MAS devkit
370<alkorr> ya, if we could have opcodes, we can create an assembler
371<alkorr> but what i know it should be 24-bit opcodes (code addresses are 24-bit)
372<alkorr> btw, if you look at MAS commands, to upload a firmware you must issue a command and a block of 32-bit words
373<alkorr> but only the first 24 bits in those words are valid
374<alkorr> (or it should be 12-bit ?)
375<alkorr> hum found a 1 MB pdf...
376<Zagor> the data sheets speaks of 20-bit words
377<alkorr> ok
378<alkorr> so it is 20-bit
379<alkorr> i found a page where someone said what DSP was in fact
380<Bagder> wow
381<alkorr> i try to get it back
382<alkorr> MASC
383<alkorr> 3500 ?
384<Bagder> not 35000 ?
385<alkorr> anyway not a target we can find for gcc or as :(
386<Bagder> uh no
387<Bagder> http://winwww.rutgers.edu/~samar/platforms/masc3500.html
388<alkorr> ya
389<alkorr> found
390<Zagor> nice digging!
391<Bagder> the guy who wrote that web page could have some info
392<alkorr> yes i tried but i wonder if his email address is still valid
393<Bagder> he has two, try both ;-)
394<alkorr> hum i prefer let you to try both ;)
395<alkorr> "MASC 3500 is NOT supported by C compiler. Only assembler programming is available"
396<Bagder> actually, I think I'll hand over that work to Björn
397<alkorr> okay
398<Zagor> *thump*
399<Zagor> got it
400<Zagor> :)
401<Bagder> he's the man
402<Bagder> ;-)
403<alkorr> :)
404<Zagor> so..um... what do we want to know, exactly?
405<wav_lunch> whether he has an archos for a start :)
406--- wav_lunch is now known as wavey
407<alkorr> have all the information he can feed us about this DSP : especially all the opcodes
408<Bagder> haha
409<Zagor> haha
410<Zagor> "I was especially interested in digital modulation techniques and speech processing. So, embedded systems and numerous real-time DSP implementations (telephone line modems, low bit-rate speech coding...)"
411<Zagor> he's our man!
412<wavey> There was only one commercially available MPEG layer 3 chip, the MASC3500 from ITT Intermetall Semiconductor. We attempted to obtain information and availability of the chip, but the company is situated in Germany and gave very little feedback
413<wavey> not a good sign
414<alkorr> yes it is the main culpritt of thy company
415<alkorr> this
416<alkorr> humm i mean the main discredit for this company :)
417<wavey> your point is usually clear, al :)
418<wavey> A. Domazetovic, D. Samardzija, "Implementation of 4880 bps CELP on MASC 3500 DSP", Conference on Telecommunications ETRAN, Vrnjacka Banja, Yugoslavia, Jun 1998.
419<wavey> anyone near a library?
420<wavey> in yugoslavia?
421* wavey chuckles
422<Zagor> lol
423<wavey> D. Samardzija, Z. Lukac, "A Solution of CELP Encoder at 5.3kbit/s and 6.3kbit/s on ITT MASC 3500 Processor", Conference on Telecommunications ETRAN, Vrnjacka Banja, Yugoslavia, Jun 1998.
424<alkorr> well in a very good english : "this lack of feedback is the rock(box) on which the undertaking comes to grief" ;)
425<Zagor> yay, we've got a poet! ;)
426<wavey> al: and now in italian, please :)
427<alkorr> italian you are ?
428<wavey> (without using babelfish)
429<wavey> italian I am not
430<wavey> english I am
431<alkorr> arf ;)
432<wavey> arf is a lovely word :)
433<alkorr> "questa mancanza di risposte è la roccia(boccia) su cui l'impresa viene al dolore " ;)
434<wavey> roccia boccia
435* Bagder giggles
436<alkorr> arf => lol
437<wavey> fantastic! :)
438<Bagder> roccia boccia is mighty
439<alkorr> huh "boccia" doesn't exist :P
440<alkorr> Wav: found something about "A Solution of CELP Encoder at 5.3kbit/s and 6.3kbit/s on ITT MASC 3500 Processor" ?
441<Zagor> it's one of Dragan's publications
442<alkorr> okay so no pdf at all ?
443<Zagor> no
444<Zagor> i'll email him and see if he's a cool guy or not
445<Zagor> hmm, this guy wrote a CELP encoder for the MAS 3503, which is the predecessor of the 3507 we have in the jukebox
446<Zagor> i think i'm in love
447<alkorr> arf :)
448* Bagder worships Dragan a little
449<Bagder> you think it helps? ;-)
450<alkorr> Why ?
451<alkorr> brb

456--> Bagder (~daniel@as3-3-2.ras.s.bonet.se) has joined #rockbox
457--- Topic for #rockbox is Open Source Jukebox Firmware - http://bjorn.haxx.se/rockbox/
458--- Topic for #rockbox set by Zagor at Fri Apr 12 15:45:52
459<Bagder> does wordexp() exist in windows?
460<Bagder> anyone?
461* Zagor doesn't do windows
462<alkorr> wordexp ?
463<Zagor> Bagder: <Linus> I just managed to read the version number from the MAS via I2C! Yippie!
464<Bagder> *neat*
465<Bagder> wordexp, yes, it's a posix function
466<Bagder> though I doubt windows features it
467<alkorr> use the cygwin.dll from Cygwin ;P
468<alkorr> i'm doubtful too
469<alkorr> unless they have a posix library
470<alkorr> what is its purpose
471<Bagder> "perform word expansions"
472<alkorr> i cannot find its manual entry
473<Bagder> heh, no I couldn't either on linux
474<alkorr> really a standard posix or just a mandatory extension ?
475<Bagder> then Linux man pages contain many holes
476<Bagder> standard posix
477<Bagder> single unix specification
478<Bagder> never mind
479<alkorr> okay
480<Bagder> so what is the version number of the MAS? ;-)
481<alkorr> Linus: player or recorder ?
482<Zagor> it's the player
483<Zagor> actually, he read the model number so it's "3507"
484<Bagder> woooo
485<Bagder> we didn't know that! B-P
486<Zagor> hehe
487<alkorr> Linus: you should try I²Cize your MAS on the recorder too
488<Zagor> maybe he faked it :)
489<Zagor> alan: yeah, it's just a lot easier to do development on the player since he's got the serial port on it (and the I2C wires connected to a digital oscilloscope...)
490<alkorr> ah yes, the wires...
491<PsycoXul> you guys are gonna make these little boxes do things the archos people never dreamed :p
492<PsycoXul> just thought i'd throw that in there before running off to bed heh
493<Bagder> ... and not some things people do dream of (judging from some of the feature requests) ;-)
494<PsycoXul> heh
495<PsycoXul> yeah well
496<Linus> My I2C test was on the player
497<alkorr> Recorder has two I²C devices so don't be surprise if you code could not work ;)
498<PsycoXul> Bagder: that may not be all bad heh
499<PsycoXul> and theres a lot of requested features that would be like.. moot with new better firmware
500<PsycoXul> you know things that apply to the current firmware's limitations etc
501<Bagder> that's true
502<Linus> Why? I assume they have different ID:s.
503<alkorr> especially, if you requeste a RTC reading via an interrupt while reading something on MAS ;)
504<Linus> Hehe. Who would do such a thing? :-)
505<alkorr> They do
506<Linus> :-)
507<PsycoXul> anyways, sleep time.. night
508<Bagder> night PsycoXul
509<Linus> night
510<alkorr> nacht Psycho
511<alkorr> hum i must leave, see you !

526<Zagor> yep
527<Zagor> had a problem with c-offsets-alist, but I worked it out
528<Zagor> are you logging everything?

531<adi|atWork> zagor.. you still around?
532<Zagor> yeah
533<adi|atWork> heheh glad you updated the lcd.[ch] api...
534<adi|atWork> now i can toss up my battery bit at some point ;)
535<Zagor> ah, yes
536<Zagor> i have a little something i hope to get done tonight
537<adi|atWork> whats that?
538<Zagor> umm, a surprise :)
539<Zagor> tetris
540<adi|atWork> lol.. seriously?
541<Zagor> yeah
542<adi|atWork> oh.. i was thinking...
543<adi|atWork> we have a limited # of keys on the players.. we may want to assign keyboard keys to represent them for the simulator.
544<Zagor> yes, i've been thinking that too. i was thinking some keys on the numeric keyboard
545<adi|atWork> nods
546<adi|atWork> that or just overload the function keys.
547<adi|atWork> but the #pad would work nicely for the center control pad...
548<adi|atWork> left, right, up, down.
549<Zagor> exactly
550<adi|atWork> i like that.
551<Zagor> and 5 för the play/pause on the recorder
552<adi|atWork> yup...
553<Zagor> and even the top four for the menu keys
554<adi|atWork> could even get away with - for off and + for on
555<adi|atWork> right...
556<Zagor> i don't know if numlock is a problem using as a normal key in X
557<adi|atWork> i don't see why it would be...
558<adi|atWork> brb..need food
559<-- Zagor has quit ("bye")
