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 | ||

71 | <Zagor> eeeello | ||
72 | <adi|home> <adi|home> btw... zagor stated 'the firmware should never exit' | ||

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 | ||

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 | ||

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 | ||

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 ;-) | ||

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 | ||

238 | <dwihno> I'll be damned! DAMN DAMN DAMN! :) | ||
239 | <Linus> Don't spill it!!! | ||
240 | <Bagder> get over your head ;-) | ||

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? | ||
