9<dwihno> Hail to the almighty LINUS!: D
10<Linus> Yo!
11<Linus> Where did you order your Archos? And did you order a Recorder?
12<dwihno> I ordered it from Dustin
13<dwihno> Yeah, a recorder model
14<dwihno> I also ordered myself a new "dual optical" mouse from logitech ;D
15<Linus> Nice.
16<dwihno> yeah :)
17<dwihno> I just hope my expectations won't fail me ;)
18<Linus> Me too.
19<adi|home> weclome back all :)
20<dwihno> thanks
21<Linus> Hi adi!
22<dwihno> I might get it today
23<dwihno> (that is, if I'm _EXTREMELY_ lucky) ;)
24<PsycoXul> btw the archos firmware does handle being turned off somehow, because custom firmware won't turn off with the power plugged in but archos firmware will
25<Linus> Oh. That's something we'll have to look into
26<dwihno> PsycoXul: how extensivly have you been testing the new code on the actual hardware?
27<PsycoXul> well lets see i threw it on there last night and didn't past ata_init() so uh not very? :p
28<Linus> Strange, that thing with the ATA...
29<Linus> PsycoXul: have you opened your box?
30<PsycoXul> no
31<Linus> Ok.
32<dwihno> heheh
33<dwihno> Well, try to have a positive perspective - you at least got to ata_init() :)
34<dwihno> Was it the first test on actual hardware you performed last night?
35<PsycoXul> i've played with little pieces of code on the hardware a good amount
36<dwihno> cool :)
37--> Bagder (~daniel@as3-3-2.ras.s.bonet.se) has joined #rockbox
38<Bagder> hey ho
39<dwihno> Hello Bagder! :D
40<Linus> Yo Bagder!
41<Bagder> oh crap, Linus got here before me!!! :-)
42<dwihno> :D
43<dwihno> He was here REALLY early!
44<dwihno> 07:38 <Linus> Yo!
45<dwihno> You can't beat that! :D
46<Bagder> hehe
47<Bagder> I'm pretty often at work before that actually
48<Linus> But then he's so tired he can't even read or speak. :-)
49<Bagder> its just a matter of coffee amounts :)
50<dwihno> Hehe
51<dwihno> The caffeine is your friend! :D
52<dwihno> <-- just had his third cup of coffee
53<Linus> Björns donated player has an old display after all
54<Bagder> ah
55<Linus> Version 4.13
56<Bagder> did you get anything displayed on it?
57<Linus> Stone dead.
58<Linus> And the 4.13 display is stone dead when I pair it with Björns old CPU board.
59<dwihno> It's stone'd ;)
60<adi|home> btw... zagor stated 'the firmware should never exit'
61<adi|home> so we #defined the uisim to use the off button...
62<adi|home> but on the player and the recorder.. does the firmware trap the off button or what?
63<adi|home> i mean how else do you turn the unit off?
64* Bagder has no clue
65* adi|home draws a target on Bagder's forehead then poke's him in the bullseye
66--> Zagor_ (~bjst@labb.contactor.se) has joined #rockbox
67<adi|home> speak of the devil...
68<Linus> I think the hardware traps the off button
69<adi|home> hey.. zag
70--- Zagor_ is now known as Zagor
71<Zagor> eeeello
72<adi|home> <adi|home> btw... zagor stated 'the firmware should never exit'
73<adi|home> <adi|home> so we #defined the uisim to use the off button...
74<adi|home> <adi|home> but on the player and the recorder.. does the firmware trap the off button or what?
75<adi|home> <adi|home> i mean how else do you turn the unit off?
76<Linus> eieio
77<adi|home> like 20 secs ago
78<adi|home> and sometimes y
79<Zagor> ah
80<dwihno> YAY!
81<Zagor> well we don't know for sure
82<dwihno> My Archos is in Umeå now!
83<Zagor> the recorder seems to simply go into powersave mode and not actually turn off 100%
84<dwihno> I'm gonna get it today! :D
85<dwihno> Oh joy!
86<adi|home> really? thats just weird
87<adi|home> and the player?
88* dwihno starts bouncing around like a a playfull puppu
89<dwihno> puppy ;)
90<Zagor> i don't know. we need to do some measurements
91<Linus> I don't think it's weird that it goes into powersave mode
92* adi|home puts newspaper under dwihno
93<Linus> That way it can keep the settings in RAM
94<adi|home> no.. what i mean is.. sholdn't both units?
95<adi|home> i mean, why wouldn't the player as well?
96<Linus> i dunno
97<Linus> Maybe they designed it in a hurry
98<adi|home> keep those answers up.. and im giving you a target too...
99<adi|home> ;)
100<Linus> maybe the LCD display has no powersave mode
101<Linus> who knows?
102* adi|home nods
103<adi|home> okay.. im off to bed then.. long day tomorrow.
104<Zagor> night!
105<dwihno> sweet dreams
106<Linus> COFFEEEEEE!
107<dwihno> I'm way ahead of you Linus! :) Got my 4th cup!
108<adi|home> and also.. its E.M.S. appreciation week here in the States.. so appreciate me damn it!
109* adi|home giggles like a school girl
110<Bagder> EMS?
111<adi|home> Emergency Medical Services
112<Bagder> aha
113<adi|home> ppl that work on ambulances
114<adi|home> volunteers here mostly
115* Bagder appreciates ambulance-adiamas for a while
116<adi|home> hehehe
117* adi|home puffs up his chest proudly
118<adi|home> nite agin
119<Linus> Gah!
120<Linus> The "new" display works with the "new" CPU board
121<Linus> So we night have *three* display types on our hands!
122<Bagder> hmrpmf
123<Zagor> or at least combining old new cpu with old display wasn't as simple as we thought
124<Linus> Or it might be that it has nothing to do with the LCD at all.
125<Linus> Just incompatible boards
126<Linus> But how????
127<Linus> I wonder what's different...
128<Zagor> don't worry about that too much, it's not like anyone else is going to attempt it...
129<Linus> True. I'm just curious
130<Bagder> you should still write down or post your findings, so that we have them saved for the future
131<Linus> And we still need to debug a New(tm) Player to find out what's different with the ATA interface
132<Zagor> yes
133--> wavey (~wavey@dlan1431.dircon.co.uk) has joined #rockbox
134<Linus> Yo wav!
135<wavey> howdy linus

139<dwihno> 1x2
140<dwihno> I want my archos NOW!!! :)
141<dwihno> What are you people going to eat for lunch today?
142<Bagder> I think I'm up for chinese today
143<dwihno> yum
144<dwihno> noodles is always nice
145<dwihno> NASIGORENG!
146<Zagor> today is sushi day
147<Zagor> btw, guys, I managed to exchange a few words with Tumm yesterday. he exists! ;)
148* Bagder faints
149<dwihno> Eww! Sushi! That's like, dead fish!
150<Linus> Well. It's almost alive!
151<dwihno> Fried fish = yum yum
152<Zagor> barely dead :)
153<Linus> Wonderful!
154<Linus> Delicious!
155<Bagder> I wish we had a sushi place around here
156<dwihno> I wish I never have to see the evilness of the sushi
157* dwihno sends some abborre-sushi to Zagor

162<Zagor> PsycoXul: you here?
163<PsycoXul> yeah
164<Zagor> have you opened your archos?
165<PsycoXul> heh
166<PsycoXul> no i haven't
167<Zagor> ok. we're having a theory that perhaps your harddisk is jumpered as "slave"
168<PsycoXul> fun
169<Zagor> it's not so bad, we just have to deal with it in ata_init() if that's the case. but it's a bit tricky to find out without opening your archos... :)
170<PsycoXul> heh
171<PsycoXul> well i need to back it up [actualy mostly reorganize my HD copies to match the structure on the archos just so i can see that it really is backed up], and take it to best buy to get it serviced so they can remove the sticker and i don't have to worry about it
172<PsycoXul> i wasn't planning on opening it till after that
173<Zagor> well maybe you don't have to. we could try just patching your code a bit and see what happens
174<Zagor> stand by :)
175<PsycoXul> the power plugin does need to be resoldered or something i think, if i bump it while its plugged in it'll lose the contact
176--> Zagor_ (~bjst@labb.contactor.se) has joined #rockbox
177<PsycoXul> but i can't test anything till tomorrow... gotta juggle HD's in a win98 box next to me to boot it to linux with my sh1 dev stuff and its too late tonight to be getting into that...
178<Zagor_> :-(
179<PsycoXul> and i'm hopping in the shower now heh
180<Zagor_> when you get the chance, try changing SELECT_LBA to 0x50 in ata.c
181<PsycoXul> ok
182<-- Zagor has quit (card.openprojects.net irc.openprojects.net)
183--- Zagor_ is now known as Zagor
184<PsycoXul> well i'll go take a shower and if its not too late after that then maybe i can
185<Bagder> PsycoXul: where are you, geograpicly?
186<Zagor> pacbell.net hints US
187<dwihno> I GOT MY ARCHOS IN MY HAND!
188<Bagder> try the demos! ;-)
189<dwihno> hm
190<dwihno> how do I connect it? ;)
191<Bagder> to what?
192<dwihno> To the PC
193<dwihno> It just says charging
194<dwihno> no "hello USB" thingy
195<Zagor> yay, that was fast
196<Linus> dwihno: turn it on
197<dwihno> Trying
198<dwihno> It just says "charging batteries"
199<Linus> Hold ON down for a few secs
200<Zagor> dwihno: go to groups.yahoo.com and join the archosjukebox6000 group. then read the faq there, it will answer your 20 first questions :-)
201<dwihno> Help me out, I don't wanna search no mail list! :(
202<Linus> How long did you press ON?
203<Zagor> keep it down 5-10 seconds
204<dwihno> öjj, nu hände det grejer
205<dwihno> Windows won't say hello USB
206<Zagor> you need to install the driver from the cd
207<Zagor> uh, maybe not
208<Zagor> i was thinking about the old archos :)
209<Zagor> which windows do you have?
210* Bagder has glass windows ;-)
211<Linus> You do have to install a driver if you have Win98
212<Zagor> yeah, I guess we can't expect MSWindows to follow specifications... ;*)
213<Bagder> ah they do, just not the SAME specifications ;-)
214<dwihno> <-- is ejaculating
215<dwihno> <-- is ejaculating
216<dwihno> <-- is ejaculating
217<dwihno> <-- is ejaculating
218<dwihno> <-- is ejaculating
219<dwihno> <-- is ejaculating
220<dwihno> DAMN
221* Zagor puts dwihno in a cool shower
222--- ChanServ gives channel operator status to Bagder
223<dwihno> :)~
224<dwihno> Worth every wooden nickle
225<Linus> Didn't we tell you? :-)
226<Bagder> now, rip it up and make that serial port work for debugging B-P
227<Zagor> haha
228<Linus> hihi
229<Linus> Bagder: why don't you??? :-)
230<Bagder> well, no recorder has so far
231<Bagder> not even you guys
232<Bagder> right?
233<dwihno> hahahaha
234<dwihno> damn
235<dwihno> whoa
236<Zagor> right
237<dwihno> <-- gets a glass of water...
238<dwihno> I'll be damned! DAMN DAMN DAMN! :)
239<Linus> Don't spill it!!!
240<Bagder> get over your head ;-)
241<Bagder> poor it even
242<Zagor> pour
243* Zagor is the spelling police, too
244<Bagder> hey, I can't type
245<Bagder> so then I shall not speel correct either ;-)
246<dwihno> haha
247<dwihno> :)
248<dwihno> Win2k said: "Hello USB" and installed it as a mass storage device without any extra drivers
249<Zagor> good
250<Zagor> where are our win32 developers? it's been awfully quiet lately
251<PsycoXul> back
252<dwihno> Whoa
253<dwihno> whoa whoa whoa
254<PsycoXul> yeah i'm in the US, california
255<dwihno> Oh my god
256<Bagder> Zagor: indeed, the win32 simulator is now lagging behind
257<PsycoXul> bah
258<PsycoXul> win32 people aren't *real* developers anyways :p
259<Bagder> hehe
260<Zagor> adiamas spilled the beans in the yahoo forum a couple of days ago and now everyone is very interested. a win32 simulator would be good soon
261<Bagder> hey!
262<PsycoXul> yeah
263<Bagder> we're now 101 subscribers
264<Bagder> on the rockbox list
265<Zagor> and <1 msg/day :-)
266<Bagder> yeah
267<dwihno> *copy files*
268<Zagor> PsycoXul: can you test now?
269<dwihno> The speed is quite alright for being a USB 1.1 computer I'm using
270<Bagder> dwihno: hehe that'll keep you busy for a while
271<Linus> dwihno: do you have USB2.0 on your computer?
272<Linus> ah
273<dwihno> Getting files from work -> home will never be a problem again ;)
274<Bagder> sure it will, you won't have room for with all those mp3s on it ;-)
275<PsycoXul> heh
276<dwihno> hehe
277<PsycoXul> Zagor: just booted over
278<Zagor> PsycoXul: meaning?
279<PsycoXul> you know i think most of the problems i have with this thing over USB is due to trying it when the batteries low
280<Zagor> yeah that's a bad idea
281<PsycoXul> Zagor: meaning i'm copying the test file now
282<Zagor> ok
283<PsycoXul> well
284<PsycoXul> usualy when i plug it in the batteries like half way
285<PsycoXul> to USB i mean
286<PsycoXul> and then i copy files and after several times in one session it starts having problems
287<PsycoXul> using it as a USB HD seems to eat the batteries really quick
288<PsycoXul> hmmm
289<Zagor> yeah, always keep the power cable connected in usb mode
290<PsycoXul> like now the batteries shouldn't be very low but it may have stalled on the copy already
291<dwihno> For how many hours do the batteries last?
292<dwihno> 10 hours?
293<Zagor> roughly, yes
294<dwihno> mkay
295<PsycoXul> i estimate 5-10 hours depending bitrate, settings, volume, how much you mess with it
296<dwihno> mess?
297<PsycoXul> if you press buttons a lot
298<dwihno> you mean, use it as a USB harddrive?
299<PsycoXul> have the backlight on much
300<PsycoXul> etc
301<PsycoXul> dwihno: yeah
302<PsycoXul> er
303<PsycoXul> no
304<dwihno> amongst other things
305<PsycoXul> dwihno: i mean if you set up a 10 hour playlist, start it, stick it in your pouch/pocket and then don't touch it till it goes dead
306<PsycoXul> dwihno: it'll last a long longer than if you play some songs, then browse around and play some more, etc
307<dwihno> mkay
308<dwihno> Will the unit start to fux0r if I change the hard disk label?
309<PsycoXul> nah
310<PsycoXul> one of the first things i did :p
311<dwihno> heh
312<dwihno> insanity! is the label now
313<dwihno> :)
314<dwihno> 20 gigs of music in your pocket is nothing but pure insanity
315<PsycoXul> yep
316<PsycoXul> its true
317<PsycoXul> just wait
318<PsycoXul> its like your life suddenly got a soundtrack :p
319<dwihno> :)
320<dwihno> Oh my fucking G.O.D!
321<Zagor> dwihno: 20 gigs? bah, 40 here. and there's 60 gig disks out now.
322<dwihno> whoa
323<dwihno> Zagor: suck my dick :)
324<Zagor> no thanks :)
325<PsycoXul> heh
326<dwihno> I'll sync it against my collection at home tonight
327<PsycoXul> ok
328<PsycoXul> Zagor: no change
329<Zagor> hmm
330<Linus> PsycoXul: you mean the ATA slave test?
331<Zagor> yes
332<Linus> bah!
333<Zagor> hmm, we must do a device select before we start polling status...
334<Linus> Dont we do that now?
335<Zagor> nopp
336<Linus> But the ATA interface must be initialized already?
337<Zagor> i'll try and adapt the master/slave check code I have in the isd200 driver...
338<Zagor> hmm, you're right
339<Zagor> still, it just doesn't work
340<dwihno> Whoa
341<dwihno> I wanna go hoooome! :)
342<dwihno> Listen to music! :)
343<dwihno> I love the audio quality
344<Zagor> have you been able to hear the buzz yet=
345<Zagor> ?
346<dwihno> Didn't try
347<PsycoXul> i get a buzz while my studio20's charging sometimes... it comes and goes and when it comes i can't get rid of it and when it goes i can't make it do it, but its from the unit itself and not the headphones heh
348<Zagor> oh
349<Zagor> are you using the stock charger?
350<PsycoXul> yes
351<Zagor> it could be voltage related
352<PsycoXul> its no big deal and i only get it sometimes
353<dwihno> I'll try to get the buzz tonight
354<dwihno> Damn
355<dwihno> The bass is exquisite!
356<dwihno> My EXP101 is WAY out!
357<Zagor> dwihno: you can probably "force" the buzz by only inserting the headphone plug half-way
358<Zagor> still, if you can't hear it why look for it :)
359<dwihno> hehe
360<dwihno> true, true
361<dwihno> You will not find the force, the force will find you!
362<dwihno> Reverse that sentence and imagine Yoda saying it ;)
363<PsycoXul> find the force you will not, find you it will
364<dwihno> :)
365<dwihno> :-)
366* dwihno sighs
367<PsycoXul> but yeah
368<PsycoXul> anything else i should try today?
369<dwihno> How long time does it take to charge it?
370<Zagor> dwihno: a long time. leave it overnight at least
371<Zagor> it handles it intelligently, so there's no problem leaving it too long
372<dwihno> Ah, sure
373<PsycoXul> yeah but don't leave it too too long especialy if you use the stock adapter
374<dwihno> How come?
375<PsycoXul> cause its an unregulated piece of shit adapter that i guess provides more power than the unit needs to start with, and especialy once its charged, that extra power gets put out as heat
376<PsycoXul> some people have damaged their units with that
377<PsycoXul> mine's gotten hotten than i'm comfortable with a couple times
378<PsycoXul> hotter
379<dwihno> ah
380<dwihno> does it tell when the charging is finished?
381<Zagor> yes
382<PsycoXul> yeah
383<dwihno> and how many hours does a typical charge take?
384<dwihno> the green led goes blank when it's fully charged?
385<Zagor> no the display says "Charging complete"
386<Zagor> the green led is hardwired to power-on
387<PsycoXul> i dunno about recorders, but my player says "charged" instead of "charging..." and you can also hear the HD spin up
388<Zagor> the recorder does not spin the hd
389<PsycoXul> huh
390<Zagor> the "charging complete, let's dissipate excess power via spinning hd" seems to be a new-players-only thing
391<dwihno> mkay
392<dwihno> Should I upgrade to the newsest firmware?
393<Zagor> which version do you have?
394<dwihno> lemme check... where do I do that?
395<Zagor> menu->firmware
396<Bagder> who cares about firmware versions, we need rockbox ;-)
397<dwihno> hehe
398<dwihno> rockbox is still just a dream
399<dwihno> Rockbox - Because dreams will come true!
400<dwihno> There's a slogan you can use ;)
401<PsycoXul> you know it *seriously* seems like the players firmware was a hacked together bare minimal with a few things thrown in cause they were easy, and i *swear* they anticipated a project to replace it
402<PsycoXul> to me anyways :p
403<dwihno> you might be right
404<Zagor> i doubt they anticipated anyone replacing it. then why would the scramble it? I agree on the "hacked together" part, though
405<dwihno> ask the firmware developers
406<PsycoXul> i couldn't tell you why they scramble it
407<PsycoXul> it doesn't seem to actualy accomplish anything anyways :p
408<Zagor> it would appear they explicity wanted something like this to never happen...
409<dwihno> 1.26
410<dwihno> mar 10 2002
411<dwihno> that's the firmware
412<Zagor> dwihno: I think there's a 1.27 out. try it if you feel like it.
413<Zagor> I'm using 1.24. can't be bother with their mini changes
414* Bagder has 1.25b
415<PsycoXul> so you guys got anything else for me to test today or can i throw the normal firmware on there and call it a day? heh
416<Zagor> PsycoXul: we're done for now, I think. i'll test some stuff on my end first.
417<PsycoXul> ok
418<Bagder> there's a 1.27c available
419<dwihno> Where do you find the firmware?
420<dwihno> I'm trying to find, but can't!
421<Bagder> http://www.archos.com/us/download_drivers.html
422<dwihno> ah
423<dwihno> thanks
424<Bagder> "archos recorder firmware" on google showed that as first choice
425<Bagder> the rockbox link was only on third place ;-)
426<dwihno> Yeah! :D
427<PsycoXul> ok
428<PsycoXul> i descrambled/hexedited/rescrambled the archos firmware and changed 'CHARGE' to 'FUX0RZ' and 'CHARGING' to 'FUX0RING' etc
429<Zagor> haha
430<PsycoXul> and put it on, booted it, shut it off, plugged it in just to see
431<PsycoXul> and it still says CHARGE, CHARGING
432<dwihno> :)
433<dwihno> hm
434<PsycoXul> so apparently firmware upgrades don't effect its charging stuff
435<dwihno> stupid :/
436<Zagor> ah, no. not unless you first start the firmware then plug in the charger
437<PsycoXul> which makes sense to me since it doesn't boot up from the HD to charge
438<dwihno> In what way is the firmware scrambled? :) XOR?
439<Zagor> no it's a bit more than that
440<PsycoXul> heh
441<Zagor> they used the old "swap bus pins" trick, only in software instead of hardware
442<dwihno> (?)
443<dwihno> swap bus pins?
444<PsycoXul> ok so i turned it on and plugged it in and then turned it off and it still says CHARGE heh
445<PsycoXul> they seem to have a lot of unused stuff in their firmware upgrades
446<Zagor> don't turn it off
447<Zagor> when you turn it off it reverts to rom
448<PsycoXul> well when its on it just displays the normal interface and the battery indicator just moves
449<Zagor> dwihno: yeah, if you swap the bus pins to the ROM, the contents of the ROM becomes scrambled without you actually having to unscramble it
450<dwihno> Femton pirater å en flaska mä rooooom! :D
451<PsycoXul> so i'll never see those messages heh
452<Zagor> PsycoXul: ah, silly me
453<dwihno> Zagor: mkay
454<dwihno> Zagor: in quiet parts of the songs, I hear a faint buzz noise...
455<dwihno> I can live with it though
456<PsycoXul> i was mainly just wondering how "fixed battery charged issue" ended up on the feature list of a firmware upgrade... so now we know just cause they say they added it doesn't necessarily mean it'll have any effect for an upgrade :p
457<Zagor> i guess you're right
458<Zagor> PsycoXul: umm, feel like testing some more? ;)
459* Zagor ducks
460<dwihno> What's with that digital serial thing? Are they trying to disable something?
461<PsycoXul> heh
462<Zagor> dwihno: what do you mean?
463<PsycoXul> sure, except i just booted that box back to win98 so i can't compile anything for it heh
464<Zagor> PsycoXul: if i select slave, I get the same 00 status response as you get
465<Zagor> so we should probably we checking master/slave the first thing we do
466<dwihno> Zagor: Well, I read something about some serial thing and DMCA... And the link said something about making digital copies... I thought they might be trying to disable digital copying...
467<PsycoXul> ok
468<PsycoXul> hey its kindof funny
469<PsycoXul> i've got this song called 'descramble'
470<PsycoXul> its the DeCSS source code, sang
471<Zagor> dwihno: ah, yes. like everyone selling stuff in the US they must obey silly rules. but there are ways around the SCMS. (it's in the FAQ ;)
472<Zagor> dwihno: but it's only over the SPDIF interface anyway. and nobody uses that
473<PsycoXul> with the chorus "the dmca steps me... i don't like the dmca, it makes this song illegal"
474<Zagor> PsycoXul: lol
475<dwihno> :)
476<PsycoXul> er "steps on me"
477<PsycoXul> its bad recording, bad quality, bad performance but its kinda catchy :p
478<Zagor> i like the lyrics...
479* Bagder thinks songs by "decoded feedback" kind of fits on mp3
480<PsycoXul> how can you not love a song that starts off with
481<PsycoXul> "this function is void.. it takes to args"
482<dwihno> Zagor: Nothing about SCMS in the FAQ :/
483<PsycoXul> :p
484<Bagder> hehehe
485<PsycoXul> s/to/two/
486<dwihno> :-)
487<PsycoXul> DMCA steps on me... i don't like the dmca it makes this song illegal, oooh... dmca, it steps on me and makes this song illegal, makes this song illegal
488<dwihno> PsycoXul: You need coffee.
489<PsycoXul> eye dew gnot.
490* dwihno hands PsycoXul a steaming hot cup dé coffee
491* PsycoXul hands it back, thanks anyways heh
492<PsycoXul> coffee's nasty stuff man :p
493<PsycoXul> and it pisses me off that innocent pot smokers are going to jail while everyone from gradeschoolers to their parents are hooked on caffiene :p
494<dwihno> hehe
495<Linus> Gotta go. Bye folks!
496<dwihno> You haven't made a 'scroll faster' patch yet? :)
497<Bagder> bye Linus
498<PsycoXul> nobody's doing patches :p
499<PsycoXul> besides maybe archos heh
500<-- Linus (~linus@labb.contactor.se) has left #rockbox
501<dwihno> hehe
502<dwihno> I'll do my own patch ;D
503<PsycoXul> sure
504<PsycoXul> while you're at it, whip up some DSP code for PCM and ogg support
505<PsycoXul> so i saw this new portable thing out
506<PsycoXul> with 10G
507<PsycoXul> can play mp3/wav but thats only a feature
508<PsycoXul> works as usb master and slave, has ethernet and pc card
509<Zagor> so what "thing" is it?
510<Bagder> gotta run, see ya
511<-- Bagder (~daniel@as3-3-2.ras.s.bonet.se) has left #rockbox
512<Zagor> bye
513<Zagor> gah, too late :)
514<PsycoXul> http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/gadgets/57a3.shtml
515<PsycoXul> that thing
516<dwihno> it's rather sexy
517<dwihno> but it's not an archos
518<dwihno> archos is godsent!
519<Zagor> ah, a harddisk with a display. how cute :)
520<dwihno> rockbox is the archangel, sent to thame the archos!
521<PsycoXul> its size is kindof odd
522<PsycoXul> 7"x3.2"x1"
523<Zagor> the price is, ehm, high
524<PsycoXul> yeah
525--> alkorr (alkorr@srs04m-8-122.n.club-internet.fr) has joined #rockbox
526<Zagor> hey, alan!
527<alkorr> hello people
528<PsycoXul> its LCD sounds like its charcell too... says 20 chars x 4 lines
529<alkorr> you are fast :)
530<Zagor> like lightning :)
531<alkorr> speaking about your project :)
532<PsycoXul> but its got some interesting features
533<PsycoXul> such as ability to use alkaline, ni-mh, or a li-ion battery pack
534<alkorr> Psyco, what are you speaking about ?
535<PsycoXul> can act as a usb master, has 10mb ethernet, pcmcia, and composite video out for viewing still images
536<PsycoXul> heh
537<PsycoXul> alkorr: http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/gadgets/57a3.shtml
538<PsycoXul> terapin mine
539<PsycoXul> its rather long at 7" though, "20 char x 4 line" lcd doesn't sound impressive, nor does 6 buttons, and costing so much for only 10G
540<alkorr> looks very interesting if it was not its price
541<Zagor> ga-zing-ga. file browser running on my 6k.
542<PsycoXul> what'd be more interesting is if they sold them cheap without HD's
543<Zagor> yeah, it's kind of a mix between an archos and a handheld. not being especially good for either
544<PsycoXul> but being that its geared towards being a data storage device, they probably wouldn't do that heh
545<alkorr> well I prefer a graphical lcd
546<Zagor> unghh... sourceforge's CVS server seems to have bonked
547<alkorr> ???
548<PsycoXul> yeah
549<alkorr> bonked ? what does mean ?
550<Zagor> it doesn't respond right now
551<Zagor> bonked = died, sort of
552<alkorr> ok
553<Zagor> apparently it didn't like my latest patch :)
554<PsycoXul> i feel like i got shortchanged on this little 11x2 charcell thing, i've seen $10 games at walmart with better displays heh
555<Zagor> hehe
556<alkorr> arf
557<Zagor> ah, it's up again
558<PsycoXul> but at least it does display stuff
559<PsycoXul> there's so many players on the market that don't even have standard mp3 player features
560<Zagor> PsycoXul: is yours a studio 10 or 20?
561<PsycoXul> studio20
562<PsycoXul> http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/gadgets/5a1a.shtml
563<Zagor> ok
564<Zagor> hey, it can almost fit the rockbox logo! ;)
565<PsycoXul> hey thats kinda interesting... if you hooked an IR port into the serial port on your archos with custom firmware and then used that
566<PsycoXul> get a joystick and mini keyboard and extra display
567<PsycoXul> heh
568<Zagor> yep. there's lots of cool stuff to be done on the archos
569<alkorr> hum... interesting...
570<dwihno> :)
571* dwihno takes everybody down to earth again
572<dwihno> :)
573<alkorr> you dreamreaper :)
574<Zagor> who'll be first with a keyboard->archos adapter? :)
575--- dwihno is now known as DreamReaper
576<DreamReaper> Mohahaha!
577<DreamReaper> The Archos will NEVER be more than a music box! :D
578<DreamReaper> *evil laughter*
579--- DreamReaper is now known as dwihno
580<Zagor> you forgot tetris :)
581<alkorr> a PC keyboard should not be a problem
582<dwihno> haha
583<dwihno> Tetris is a toy for kids :)
584<PsycoXul> Zagor: i keep thinking of a bi-directional IR via serial port
585<alkorr> if your archos has the external serial line
586<Zagor> PsycoXul: yeah, unfortunately bidir requires hw mod
587<PsycoXul> yeah i know
588<PsycoXul> i do plan on making hw mods eventualy
589<dwihno> hm
590<dwihno> bettery charged
591<dwihno> So it's full now, eh?
592<alkorr> please, consider my idea
593<PsycoXul> which idea is that
594<alkorr> there is the Linus' serial tool that we can connect between an archos and PC
595<PsycoXul> yeah
596<alkorr> if we have a PS/2<->serial adaptor
597<alkorr> it should be virtually possible to connect a PC keyboard
598<PsycoXul> heh
599<alkorr> no ?
600<alkorr> a PC keyboard sends 1200 baud, no parity, 8 bit, 1 start, 1 stop
601<alkorr> am i wrong ?
602<-- Zagor has quit (card.openprojects.net irc.openprojects.net)
603<alkorr> so jukebox should be able to receive scancodes and handles it
604--> Zagor (~bjst@labb.contactor.se) has joined #rockbox
605<PsycoXul> i've got 3 ps/2-serial adapters, but all 3 are made to plug into a serial port
606<PsycoXul> and linus' serial adapter i'm guessing is also made to plug into a serial port
607<alkorr> jukebox has no PC serial plug
608<Zagor> ah, hi again :)
609<alkorr> you need to have an intermediate
610<PsycoXul> i know
611<PsycoXul> thats what linus' adapter does right?
612<PsycoXul> heh
613<dwihno> <-- is off - no more "work" today ;D
614--- dwihno is now known as dw|off
615<alkorr> yeah
616<alkorr> ah okay youre speaking about adapter
617<PsycoXul> yeah the rs232 converter
618<Zagor> then you just need the serial->archos adapter from the web page
619<Zagor> PsycoXul: yup
620<PsycoXul> which kind of rs232 port does that have? the kind like is on the computer on the kind like plugs into the computer? heh
621<Zagor> it's db9 -> 3.5mm plug
622<PsycoXul> i seem to recall somebody at some point saying they'd put pictures up of the thing
623<Zagor> dumdidum, that was never me was it? :*)
624<PsycoXul> Zagor: yes but i mean does it plug into the host port or do you plug a serial cable between the host port and the converter port or what?
625<PsycoXul> Zagor: can you plug a serial device into it
626<PsycoXul> or is it itself a serial device to be plugged in
627<Zagor> it plugs into the PC and into the archos
628<PsycoXul> i mean on the pc side
629<PsycoXul> does it have the 9 pins or the 9 holes? heh
630<alkorr> a stand serial wire
631<alkorr> standard
632<alkorr> wire between PC and adapter is female
633<alkorr> unless Linus inverted it
634<PsycoXul> so the rs232 converter's PC-style port is just like what you have on the back of your PC? heh
635<alkorr> well if not the good one, just buy a male-female adapter :)
636<PsycoXul> thats all i was wondering heh
637<alkorr> on the pc, it is a male
638<alkorr> my adapter has also a male adapter
639<alkorr> huh it is like PC one
640<PsycoXul> so if you had a serial keyboard you could plug it right into the rs232 converter?
641<alkorr> let me find another keyboard here...
642<PsycoXul> i've got 3 ps2->serial adapters heh
643<alkorr> you should because i bought a 1 ps2->serial too
644<alkorr> and it fits with my serial adapter for jukebox
645<PsycoXul> ok
646<PsycoXul> so it should be easy to hook a lot of stuff up to this sucker
647* PsycoXul pictures a little 1-pixel mouse cursor drawn in a dynamically-updated custom char on his player :p
648<PsycoXul> ok so for this thing
649<PsycoXul> i see on national.com the LP2980IM5
650<PsycoXul> they have -2.5 through -5.0
651<PsycoXul> (i.e. LP2980IM5-2.5, ..., LP2980IM5-5.0)
652<Zagor> i have to go. see you guys!
653<PsycoXul> is that the output voltage or something?
654<-- Zagor (~bjst@labb.contactor.se) has left #rockbox
655<PsycoXul> do i want the -3.3 then?
656<PsycoXul> heh
657<-- alkorr has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
658<-- wavey has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
659--- Disconnected (Connection timed out).
