[00:06:13] <@phoudoin> who have a recent Haiku screenshot showing ListItem class at work?
[00:07:32] * Dr_Evil writes a random-sort library for ZETA
[00:08:06] <@phoudoin> I think I've fixed an AA display issue do to wrong lowcolor, but I can't test as I don't have non-SMP system(s).
[00:08:39] <@phoudoin> random-sort library... care to elaborate?

[00:10:40] <@phoudoin> http://haiku-os.org/learn.php?mode=status: is Media kit really only 10% done?
[00:11:02] <@phoudoin> I guess no. 50 or even 60% sounds more realistic, no?
[00:12:09] <@Dr_Evil> no i can't

[15:56:46] <[Beta]> this "demo" livecd from Zeta, how is it crippled ?
[15:57:13] <tic> you probably can't install stuff onto your hard drive.:)
[15:57:56] <[Beta]> but you could mount a befs drive to work off? hmm, might be worth it if it'll run on my pc.
[15:58:54] <@mmu_man> it's not supposed to
[15:59:23] <@mmu_man> but nothing is impossible :)
[15:59:32] <tic> ask!
[15:59:32] <tic> send an e-mail.
[16:01:58] <Belial-> hehe the real version is crippled :) the Preferences app doesn't work if you use the radeon driver
[16:02:04] <Belial-> works fine in VESA mode though
[16:02:46] <Belial-> 30 15:02:46 <Belial-> 3 threads just waiting .. no gui
[16:03:17] <Belial-> http://yellowtab.com/phorum/phorum.php?read,5,119378,119378#msg-119378
[16:03:22] <Belial-> same problem with other drivers it seems
[16:04:43] <[Beta]> bummer. wonder when zeta 1.0.1 is out, next week?
[16:05:17] <agentmumu> hehe, in printed press: http://kurier.at/kult/news/1063905.php
[16:05:22] <agentmumu> (ok this is an online version ;)
[16:05:38] <Belial-> it's a shame to call it 1.0 considering bugs are plentiful

[16:29:22] <Velcro_SP> How far does Haiku have to go before there is a user-friendly working distro for a non-BeOS afficianado to download and try?
[16:29:54] <[Beta]> unsure really. christmas for an early alpha, maybe(?)
[16:30:17] <[Beta]> depends on progress. and what you'd be ok with.
[16:30:47] <Velcro_SP> should I get Zeta 1.0?
[16:31:58] <Velcro_SP> I like this graphic: http://haiku-os.org/learn.php?mode=status
[16:32:28] <Spino^zzz^> no^zzz^> no dont buy it...
[16:33:20] <Spino^zzz^> ino^zzz^> i did.... and the first it did was deleting the biggest beos partision i had...
[16:33:41] <Velcro_SP> Spino, I would only install it on a blank system.
[16:33:56] <Velcro_SP> Spino, but I understand that would be terrible.
[16:33:58] <Spino^zzz^> and the secound thing was that the media app didnt work nice...
[16:34:11] <Velcro_SP> no DIVX or XVID I heard.
[16:34:30] <Spino^zzz^> ino^zzz^> i have an audigy2 card... and it crashes..!
[16:34:44] <Spino^zzz^> all the time
[16:35:06] <Velcro_SP> Spino, you have the regular 1.0 CD and package etc.?
[16:35:34] <Spino^zzz^> ino^zzz^> i have the regular 1.0 cd yea!.
[16:35:54] <Velcro_SP> Not that DVD-style package?
[16:36:18] <Spino^zzz^> donno..

[16:37:20] <Velcro_SP> Spino, is that what you have?
[16:37:28] <Spino^zzz^> yea!
[16:38:07] <Velcro_SP> Spino, and you don't like it? You want to sell it?
[16:38:20] <Spino^zzz^> naa...
[16:38:34] <Spino^zzz^> im waiting a bit longer.... to see if they can fix the problem.
[16:40:15] <Velcro_SP> okay
[16:40:29] <Velcro_SP> I see it is on eBay, maybe I'll get it there.
[16:43:22] *** mmadia has quit IRC

[17:09:47] <[Beta]> where? ^.^

[17:17:42] <Velcro_SP> Beta, well the user should be queried for the password.

[18:23:20] <Belial-> checkbfs ?
[18:23:47] <Spino^^> hehe ok
[18:23:59] * tic pets his copy
[18:24:06] <tic> someone (ahem) should port bfs to Windows.
[18:24:26] <Spino^^> lol
[18:24:40] <tic> so I could have an USB-disk (whenever it starts working in ZETA ;) w/ a BFS volume and a 1G FAT16 volume to let me access the other things.
[18:24:49] <tic> (as my home folder)
[18:25:04] <Spino^^> why not make ntfs for beos :P
[18:25:11] <tic> There is already
[18:25:16] <Spino^^> writeable
[18:25:18] <tic> but the point is that I want to carry my USB-disk with me.
[18:25:19] <Spino^^> ?
[18:25:22] <tic> not the other way around.
[18:25:27] <Spino^^> hehe
[18:25:37] <tic> i.e., connect it to a windows 'puter and be able to access my data, possibly installing the BFS driver first.
[18:26:35] <Spino^^> hehe thats true...

[18:44:42] <fyysik> Spino^^ - NTFS? pay USD 1000 for MS for dev kit and then royalty for each driver copy distributed. Even antivirus companies are now in same trouble with NTFS
[18:46:26] <Konrad> Thats a really good thing for Microsoft.
[18:46:38] <fyysik> btw, anyone remember what is biggest input file size for BeOS zip tool - 2GB? 4GB
[18:46:53] <Konrad> fyysik do you have to pay microsoft for all software released on Windows?
[18:47:27] <fyysik> Konrad - that's idea about YT rather. As they are "official" company
[18:47:32] *** valexey has joined #haiku
[18:47:44] <fyysik> or Be Inc in past
[18:47:45] <Konrad> fyysik what do you mean?
[18:47:57] <Konrad> Ah, you mean if YT writes a driver for NTFS?
[18:48:50] <fyysik> Konrad - if you meant that we can use "free" version of NTFS driver (if i understood correctly your question) - we do, as end users if we get it somewhere.
[18:49:08] <fyysik> but YT or Be Inc cannot do it in that way
[18:49:18] <Konrad> Ah
[18:49:31] <Konrad> How does Linux/BSD do?
[18:49:46] <Konrad> and every other OS that can be downloaded for free
[18:49:59] <@mahlzeit> without the dev kit, obviously ;-)
[18:50:21] <Konrad> Then, there shouldnt be a problem by porting that driver?

[19:13:03] <fyysik> Konrad - i think RH cannot. Or other "commerical" distros. Same as with mp3 and DVD playback
[19:13:23] <Konrad> AHa
[19:15:28] <fyysik> "3.2 Can the Driver write to an NTFS volume, too?" - http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/info/ntfs.html#3.2
[19:16:53] <fyysik> some solutions do use wrapper around the original Microsoft Windows ntfs.sys driver.
[19:18:10] <fyysik> so you have either very limited and buggy write support or should use original MS solution in this or that form - be it ntfs.sys or license from MS

[22:18:46] <Zaranthos> Care to take a look at the source?
[22:25:35] *** illissius has quit IRC
[22:31:09] <Dr_Evil> I'm sooo bored
[22:31:17] <@mmu_man> so am I
[22:31:32] <@mmu_man> watching SGA 201 in loop
[22:32:02] <Dr_Evil> watching MASH 4077
[22:32:15] <Dr_Evil> I really have no intention to do any coding at the moment
[22:32:42] <Dr_Evil> considering that i'm doing so much debugging at work, don't want to continue at home
[22:32:58] <Dr_Evil> ...suicide is painless...
[22:33:52] <@mmu_man> is it ?
[22:34:00] <MYOB> I'm listening to crappy 1990's dance music, stuck in Windows
[22:34:03] <@mmu_man> probably not by jumping out of the window
[22:34:19] <@mmu_man> and I wouldn't make M$ this joy =)
[22:34:19] <MYOB> so I have the lot of yiz beaten for mindlessness
[22:34:33] <Dr_Evil> mmu_man thats the MASH4077 theme song
[22:34:41] <@mmu_man> ah
[22:35:29] <MYOB> MC Sar & The Real McCoy - Runaway
[22:35:33] <MYOB> utter crap, really
[22:36:50] <@mmu_man> seems as good as the OS that plays them :)
[22:37:08] <MYOB> BeOS plays them fine on this machine
[22:37:16] <MYOB> thankfully I have supported sound, rare on an old laptop
[22:37:20] <@mmu_man> :)
[22:37:29] <MYOB> no supported video though, and no easy way to get it - nasty, nasty driver
[22:37:51] <Dr_Evil> MYOB why don't you do your own?
[22:38:05] <MYOB> Dr_Evil thats what I'm doing
[22:38:12] <@mmu_man> what chip ?
[22:38:18] <@mmu_man> ah the intel one ?
[22:38:22] <MYOB> but the driver needs to be able to steal RAM, after boot
[22:38:31] <MYOB> which I've not seen any way to do
[22:38:44] * Dr_Evil needed some contract development at work, 340 for 80EUR/hour
[22:38:51] <Dr_Evil> 340 hours
[22:39:06] <@mmu_man> as I said already, other driver do allocate a locked area and fiddle with the mmu inside the gfx chip
[22:39:40] <MYOB> if I could even have it nick the RAM before VESA init, that'd be great; but I believe thats not possible with the way BeOS does VESA
[22:39:55] <MYOB> I can live with 16 bit colour, card doesn't even do decent quality 32 bit, but 8 bit is killer
[22:42:09] <MYOB> to all intents and purposes, the card is a bitch to write drivers for at any level
[22:43:40] *** jdrake has joined #haiku
[22:44:05] <MYOB> 32 bit colour on it seems to be a kludge, so much so that the official Intel drivers look better at 24 in Windows
[22:44:49] <Dr_Evil> there is no visible difference between 24 and 32 bit color
[22:45:43] <MYOB> on this card, theres a visible degredation with 32 bit colour, due to the card being utter crap and having some insane way of doing 32 bit colour
[22:46:07] <MYOB> XOrg drivers for it are nasty as goes colour depth managment
[22:46:32] <MYOB> I'd get another laptop rather than write the damn driver if I could find a small 12" x86 without an Intel chi
[22:48:05] *** kakashi10 has quit IRC
[22:49:43] <MYOB> and the fact that a Vaio-alike in looks costs more than I can afford, and I don't want to downgrade from this, shinyness wise

[23:04:48] <scanty> hey, it's MYOB
[23:05:53] *** oco has quit IRC
[23:06:42] <MYOB> yes, it is
[23:06:52] <scanty> :)
[23:06:56] <MYOB> just here while leeching a rather large file
[23:07:05] <scanty> ah
[23:07:21] <MYOB> 540MB, faster on 3Mbit than 1Mbit, or so I thought... not getting over 50K
[23:07:33] <scanty> whatcha downloading?
[23:07:41] <MYOB> DC1 looks OK, but its AMD
[23:07:42] <scanty> or is it a secret ^-^
[23:07:48] <MYOB> no go with R5
[23:07:59] <MYOB> not without utter pain and anguish anyway
[23:08:01] <scanty> I dont' like AMD either :)
[23:08:25] <MYOB> scanty nuclear missle plans and the source code for a driver to convert my printer to a polymer former :)
[23:08:42] <scanty> oh, nice :)
[23:08:51] <DC1> MYOB: nah... it's just an excuse
[23:09:07] <DC1> off to get some food
[23:10:52] * fyysik is thinking about getting second notebook
[23:11:05] <MYOB> right, I'm off to the pub
[23:11:05] <fyysik> with C3 or Transmeta
[23:11:08] <MYOB> will BBL
[23:11:17] <MYOB> fyysik wait for the C7 notebooks, if they come out
[23:11:21] <MYOB> will be a lot faster
[23:11:36] <scanty> C3 is a really crappy CPU
[23:11:36] <MYOB> my Transmeta was nice but the surrounding machine had terrible build quality
[23:11:47] <MYOB> either way, gtgf
[23:11:48] <fyysik> scanty - i need laptop
[23:11:53] *** MYOB has quit IRC
[23:11:54] <fyysik> not desktop replacement
[23:12:10] <fyysik> with micro heat polution
[23:12:14] <scanty> ah
[23:12:19] <scanty> well C3 only has 64k cache
[23:12:22] <scanty> so it's not so much fun
[23:12:23] <fyysik> and not battery gready
[23:13:03] <scanty> I hear centrino is pretty good stuff
[23:13:07] <scanty> but might be a little expensive
[23:13:08] *** jdrake has quit IRC
[23:13:44] <fyysik> no one of budget models incl Centrino i tried at work and in friends hands fullfil la[top idea
[23:14:03] <fyysik> in last 2 years
[23:14:41] <scanty> :(
[23:14:47] <scanty> hard to find a BeOS laptop
[23:14:50] <fyysik> http://desknote.ee/b532.php - maybe something like that
[23:16:14] <scanty> looks nice
[23:16:19] <scanty> I don't know too much about transmeta, though
[23:16:30] <fyysik> or that - http://desknote.ee/b320.php - aluminium case, all possible "legacy" ports
[23:17:12] <@mmu_man> egacy is good
[23:17:20] <fyysik> about USD 500
[23:17:28] <@mmu_man> when it avoids you having to hack in parallel port debugging output :)
[23:27:52] <tic> Wish my laptop had at least a serial port.
[23:28:00] <tic> A C3-Nehemiah is fairly good.
[23:28:07] <tic> Centrino (or rather, Pentium M) rules.
[23:28:48] <@mmu_man> well if you have a parallel port you can do kernel debugging with zeta :D
[23:29:48] <tic> bah, think I'd have a par port if I don't have a serial port? Not very likeley, Francois. :)
[23:30:08] <tic> in my experience, they lose the par port first and then the serial.
[23:30:24] <Dr_Evil> ...suicide is painless...
[23:30:28] <fyysik> [v
[23:30:31] <fyysik> hm
[23:30:37] <tic> Dr_Evil, .... ?
[23:30:43] <@mmu_man> tic well the asus lappy I have here does
[23:30:45] <fyysik> there is paralel port in my Thinkpad. But no serial
[23:30:48] <@mmu_man> // port but no serial
[23:30:50] <tic> mmu_man, that's really weird.
[23:30:54] <tic> or at least from what I know.
[23:31:02] <fyysik> and that not only case
[23:31:06] <@mmu_man> no that's stupid minds acting under influence from M$
[23:31:09] <fyysik> because prib
[23:31:11] <tic> top thing I want supported in my thinkpad, though, is an i855 driver.
[23:31:12] <Dr_Evil> thats because it has a buildin modem,
[23:31:18] <tic> (and suspend to disk wouldn't hurt either....)
[23:31:21] <fyysik> because printers are usually more expesive than mices
[23:31:27] <fyysik> or whatelse uses serial
[23:31:39] <scanty> I still think paralell and serial ports are very useful.
[23:31:40] <tic> aren't all printers usb today?
[23:31:55] <tic> a paralell port is a nice 8-pin gpio
[23:32:20] <tic> on the other hand, it's not -that- bad to just kill a gamepad and use that. You only get 8 inputs, though. :/
[23:32:42] <tic> bbl, Beverly Hills Cop II
[23:32:54] <fyysik> tic - there is no reason to throw in garbage "old" printers for whose you paid from 100 to 3000 USD :)
[23:33:05] <tic> fyysik, of course not. I'm talking new ones.
[23:33:06] <tic> *wroom*
[23:33:10] <fyysik> yup
[23:33:22] <fyysik> some new ones are dual-port, some - USB-only
