[00:39:13] <blk-majik> anyone have a quick reference where i can see if some hardware i have is support in haiku?
[00:41:54] <Ketsuban> Yes.
[00:42:02] <Ketsuban> Q. Is my hardware supported on Haiku?
[00:42:03] <Ketsuban> A. No.
[00:42:04] <Sikosis> blk-majik: karl is working on one here ... http://www.haikuware.com/hardware-database/ for beos there is http://bedrivers.com you can also try the forums as the hardware matrix is under construction
[00:42:08] <Grackle> haha Ketsuban
[00:50:31] <blk-majik> thx Sikosis =)
[00:51:56] <blk-majik> is there any hardware raid support yet? not finding any specific drivers on either reference
[00:55:08] <Sikosis> i think raid might be stretching the friendship :)
[00:55:52] <blk-majik> megaraid none the less ;)

[02:49:40] <zeii> Hey people?
[02:49:43] <zeii> Im having serious issues with Be.
[02:49:54] <zeii> PS2 Keyboard / Mouse and... it refuses to move or react even slightly.
[02:50:08] <zeii> Ive tried BeOS R5 PE and... well, the BeOS Max distribution (based on PE...)
[02:59:11] <rennj> is this on bare metal of computer or is it virtual machine?
[02:59:18] *** kennyjb402 has left #haiku
[02:59:57] <zeii> Bare metal.
[03:00:09] <rennj> weird
[03:00:18] <zeii> Aye :(
[03:00:22] <rennj> you could try booting up
[03:00:25] <rennj> hit spacebar
[03:00:29] <rennj> disable user-addons
[03:00:38] <zeii> Ive tried all options disabled.
[03:00:39] <rennj> but pe shouldnt have any user addons
[03:00:50] <rennj> is this usb keyboard and mouse
[03:00:55] <zeii> No, PS2...
[03:01:01] <zeii> mouse and keyboard
[03:02:30] <zeii> I always figure dthat Be had problems with USB, not PS2 :/
[03:02:33] <zeii> It confuses me.
[03:02:37] <rennj> http://bedrivers.com/hardware/
[03:02:46] <rennj> might want to look for your hardware on that page
[03:02:52] <geist> PS2 was actually problematic too
[03:02:57] <rennj> see if someone posted 3rd party info
[03:03:10] <zeii> Any idea what th eproblem could be Geist?
[03:03:32] <rennj> beos had no ohci usb but they have patches for that now
[03:03:39] <rennj> uhci should work
[03:03:48] <geist> yeah, you should update your beos install
[03:03:55] <rennj> ehci i doubt, but i could be wrong
[03:04:11] <rennj> if he tried beos max
[03:04:12] <zeii> How? When I cant even do anything in the OS when it is boot?
[03:04:17] <rennj> then he has all those patches
[03:04:24] <geist> yeah, you should get a newer copy of beos
[03:04:29] <geist> oh wait, ITS DEAD

[03:10:51] <zeii> holy crap, you wouldnt believe it
[03:10:59] <zeii> :P simply plugging in a USB keyboard made it all work

[04:45:54] <DeadYak> congrats
[04:45:55] <mmu_man> DeadYak: used to build the kernel

[04:46:01] <mmu_man> the ppc ld crashes on that
[04:46:07] <DeadYak> :/
[04:47:25] <zeii> Any chance I will be able to use Dual displays on a Geforce 6600GT under BeOS? :P
[04:47:41] <zeii> That would be so very super cool :)
[04:50:08] <mmu_man> zeii: the driver should support dual head in a simple config (both screens have same size)
[04:50:16] <mmu_man> it actually fakes a wider screen from both
[04:50:57] <zeii> sweet.
[04:50:58] <zeii> :)
[04:51:05] <zeii> Im a little ticked off that I have to run BeOS Max.
[04:51:26] <zeii> I will set myself up a BeOS PE install from scratch soon, I just need to know what drivers I need to shunt from Max to have the Keyboard and stuff runnin
[04:51:28] <zeii> :D
[04:52:17] <mmu_man> oh, well, maybe it will work after some sleep...

[05:05:25] <DeadYak> Al2O3: I forget who did that
[05:05:31] <umccullough> Al2O3, are you Todd?
[05:05:36] <Al2O3> umccullough: yes
[05:05:45] <umccullough> :)
[05:06:25] <umccullough> let me see if I can dig up my IRC logs from the last time someone talked about it
[05:06:31] <Al2O3> umccullough: thank you
[05:07:12] <Al2O3> Alexander G. M. Smith
[05:07:17] <Al2O3> http://ozhug.blogspot.com/2005/01/vnc-server-for-beos.html
[05:07:20] <Al2O3> maybe that was him.
[05:07:21] <umccullough> yeah, he was the last one to port it
[05:07:32] <umccullough> but there was someone more recently who got it running on haiku - after hacking the code
[05:07:39] <umccullough> here's the beos package with source: http://bebits.com/app/4047
[05:08:09] <Al2O3> http://ca.geocities.com/alexandergms/resume.html
[05:08:49] <Al2O3> I had it 'running' about 2 months ago, but it would not stay running and the connection size reported was 0,0 rect, which is invalid.
[05:09:00] <Al2O3> wondering if you know the person that 'hacked' it, and if I may talk to him/her.
[05:09:15] <umccullough> heh, i see you were here back in June asking about it :D
[05:09:20] <Al2O3> yes, that was me.
[05:09:24] <Al2O3> amazing how time flies
[05:10:06] <umccullough> wait...maybe you were the one i talked to before ;)
[05:10:12] <Al2O3> might have been.
[05:10:28] <umccullough> did you tweak it to run?
[05:10:36] <Al2O3> I did not.
[05:11:06] <Al2O3> I did play a bit with the VMWare images of Haiku posted on the VMWare to get multiple disk images to mount.
[05:11:11] <Al2O3> but nothing with the VNCServer code
[05:11:22] <umccullough> hmm... i went all the way back to this:
[05:11:22] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 21:53:47] <umccullough_r5> anyhow, it continues and then fails to get a display context - something wrong with haiku's BDirectWindow i believe that prevents it from working
[05:11:23] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 21:57:38] <_hugo> ah
[05:11:23] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 21:57:57] <_hugo> there's something that is in my 'experiment with' list for a month now
[05:11:23] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 21:58:10] <_hugo> which is an app_server vnc accelerant
[05:11:24] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 21:58:15] <umccullough> interesting ;)
[05:11:25] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 21:58:29] <umccullough> source for VNCServer is on bebits
[05:11:28] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 21:58:30] <_hugo> coupled with mirroring it would be nice
[05:11:29] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 21:58:40] <umccullough> v4.0
[05:11:31] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 21:58:49] <_hugo> or even extending the desktop
[05:11:33] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 21:58:51] <umccullough> http://bebits.com/app/4047
[05:11:37] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 21:58:56] <_hugo> umccullough: thanks for the pointer
[05:11:37] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 21:59:02] <umccullough> basically that's what i was using
[05:11:39] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 22:00:00] <umccullough> on that note, i'll put off any further testing of vnc :D
[05:11:41] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 22:00:15] <_hugo> would be nice to have it compile under/to haiku
[05:11:43] <umccullough> [2007-05-08 22:00:23] <_hugo> we need to have self hosting
[05:12:11] <umccullough> so, hugo had heard of some "app_server vnc accelerant" project...
[05:12:19] <umccullough> or..he was going to do it
[05:12:30] <Al2O3> yah, unfortunately for me and possibly the project I dno't have time to do Haiku coding, but I do have some time to do some automation/scripting for the project if we can get a solid VNC Server running on it.
[05:12:47] <Al2O3> is hugo something around these parts much?
[05:13:08] <Al2O3> Hugo Santos?
[05:13:11] <DeadYak> hasn't been since he moved
[05:13:17] <DeadYak> though he said he should be back soonish
[05:13:32] <DeadYak> iirc
[05:13:46] <umccullough> yeah, we're all waiting patiently (not) for his return :)
[05:14:34] <Al2O3> well, that kinda dead ends the idea then unless there are others that have the skill and time to do the VNC Server portion. I can do quite a bit of the setup work but not the VNC Server stuff.
[05:15:23] <umccullough> I suspect once the kernel is done, and haiku self-hosts - things will move pretty quickly
[05:15:43] <Al2O3> ETA?
[05:15:49] <Al2O3> 1-2-5-10 months?
[05:15:54] <Al2O3> estimates?
[05:15:56] <umccullough> once it self-hosts - it will be alpha'd
[05:16:08] <umccullough> hopefully before the end fo the year, but i can't speak for the developers
[05:16:13] <Al2O3> right, I understand.
[05:16:18] <Al2O3> just an ETA, estimate.
[05:16:26] <Al2O3> thanks, that gives me some time frame to work in
[05:16:33] <Al2O3> have to sell this to mid management :)
[05:16:46] <umccullough> once the vm finally gets nailed down - i think it'll be pretty close
[05:16:58] <Al2O3> are most running haiku in VMWare?
[05:19:11] <umccullough> it's the easiest method
[05:19:30] <umccullough> now that AHCI/SATA drivers are working better, more are running it natively
[05:19:38] <umccullough> building it from linux
[05:20:03] <Al2O3> links to the VMWare, don't want to register for dl instructions.
[05:20:10] <rennj> last vncserver work i know of for beos was done by AGMS
[05:20:19] <rennj> mr. ramdriver man
[05:20:20] <Al2O3> rennj: thank you.
[05:20:29] <rennj> it still stinks on beos
[05:20:36] <Al2O3> vncserver?
[05:20:41] <Al2O3> yes, it was borked when I tried it.
[05:20:42] <rennj> yeah
[05:20:43] <Al2O3> on Haiku.
[05:20:45] <rennj> nah it works
[05:20:48] <rennj> on beos
[05:20:56] <rennj> i dont know anything about haiku
[05:20:57] <Al2O3> gave back a window size of 0x0 for Haiku
[05:21:02] <Al2O3> rennj
[05:21:02] <umccullough> Al2O3, you need a link to the vmware server download?
[05:21:05] <umccullough> or vmware player?
[05:21:14] <Al2O3> umccullough: the disk image for Haiku.
[05:21:17] <Al2O3> 'appliance'
[05:21:26] <umccullough> haikuhost.com
[05:21:29] <Al2O3> or whatever they call it, maybe I have to register to get a unique download or something.
[05:21:40] <Al2O3> excellent!
[05:21:44] <umccullough> haikuhost.com/housestrain
[05:21:47] <umccullough> there's a vmx file there also
[05:21:59] <umccullough> you'll need that to launch it
[05:22:03] <Al2O3> look to be dailies
[05:22:43] <umccullough> yes
[05:22:49] <Al2O3> I don't see a vmx file.
[05:22:55] <umccullough> look on haikuhost.com
[05:23:00] <umccullough> there's a link to one there
[05:23:05] <Al2O3> ah, front page :)
[05:23:07] <Al2O3> yes, thanks
[05:23:12] <umccullough> they're just txt files
[05:23:25] <rennj> vmx file you can tweak
[05:23:27] <Al2O3> yah, configuration files for our VMWare
[05:23:45] <pyCube> crash = False
[05:23:48] <rennj> specially if you use vmplayer since it doesnt have those features of server or workstation
[05:24:06] <rennj> easyvmx site or sanbarrow explane the options
[05:24:12] <umccullough> Al2O3, you'll see that it's setup to emulate e1000 network chip
[05:24:25] <umccullough> that makes Haiku use the ipro1000 driver, which is more stable than vlance
[05:24:37] <rennj> hehe vlance comes with beosmax is broke
[05:24:45] <umccullough> vlance driver is crap
[05:24:54] <rennj> got to get the one off bebits
[05:24:59] <umccullough> same driver
[05:25:08] <rennj> beos max version doesnt work
[05:25:10] <rennj> trust me
[05:25:15] <rennj> so something is not the same
[05:25:19] <Al2O3> ethernet0.virtualDev = "e1000" <--- ipro1000 driver usage, no?
[05:25:20] <umccullough> they should all be the same version
[05:25:35] <umccullough> Al2O3, yes
[05:25:36] <umccullough> perfect :)
[05:25:37] <rennj> i know that, but latest beosmax vlance would not work with dhcp
[05:25:46] <rennj> download bebits version and that one worked
[05:25:49] <umccullough> rennj, dunno what he used ;)
[05:25:56] <Al2O3> you know as a proof of concept and ability to start automation of testing I could do a beos R5 install and do core functionaity that is the same across Haiku and BeOS.
[05:26:10] <Al2O3> which allows a migration path to Haiku as it becomes more stable and 'testable'.
[05:26:17] <Al2O3> meaning when VNC Server is running on it solid.
[05:26:18] <umccullough> Al2O3, sounds reasonable
[05:26:28] <pyCube> SuperCyberBeosMax3000+
[05:26:36] <umccullough> would at least identify any functional differences between R5 and Haiku
[05:26:46] <umccullough> pyCube, Ultimate
[05:27:19] <Al2O3> umccullough: if you have inclination and a few mins, maybe you could point out some areas to consider cross functional between the two os's (I have not used haiku at all really, and have not used BeOS since last 94
[05:27:20] <pyCube> umccullough: i____

[05:28:15] <Al2O3> some 'smoke' test kinda stuff.
[05:33:25] <rennj> yeah like personalstudio and gobe productive
[05:33:28] <rennj> hehe
[05:33:33] <pyCube> and beos
[05:33:58] <rennj> i thought it was going to be binary compatible
[05:34:21] <rennj> hence beos r5 on haiku no need to rewrite old apps
[05:34:43] <rennj> backware binary compat
[05:34:50] <rennj> backward even
[05:35:04] <pyCube> i know its an old discussion, but i still think r5 binary compat is silly
[05:35:17] <rennj> all of bebits apps toast
[05:35:33] <rennj> geekgadgets toast
[05:36:00] <rennj> all that work down the tubes, so reinvent the wheel again
[05:36:26] <pyCube> its not down the tubes
[05:36:37] <pyCube> it did what it did at the time
[05:37:47] <pyCube> besides, to me, part of what made beos neat was its reinvention of some wheels
[05:38:17] <rennj> im taking about the work put into all the apps on bebits
[05:38:22] <pyCube> so?
[05:38:23] <rennj> not what came before beos
[05:38:29] <pyCube> so am i
[05:40:48] <rennj> you saw this right http://marketshare.hitslink.com/report.aspx?qprid=2
[05:41:02] <rennj> hehe
[05:41:54] <rennj> what an uphill battle
[05:42:14] <pyCube> what battle?
[05:42:15] <Sikosis> must dethrone WinCE ...
[05:42:27] <Al2O3> ok, have the vmx and vmdk and they are in a folder, does the folder need to be named something special?
[05:42:36] <Al2O3> Doing VMWare on OS X here
[05:42:54] <rennj> that battle was begun back in like 1993 1994
[05:43:04] <rennj> i watched my sun network go to shit
[05:43:13] <pyCube> i guess i missed it
[05:43:23] <rennj> and its just been a decline ever since
[05:43:36] <rennj> server space, desktop space
[05:44:16] <rennj> only thing linux did was eat the unix market up really
[05:44:42] <rennj> and x86 eat the pricey pa-risc,sun-sparc,ibm power space
[05:45:38] <rennj> virtualization is the big thing now, cause of price and power usage
[05:48:23] <rennj> hehe i prefer it to, rather then have 3 or 4 physical computers here, i got this laptop running 3 or 4 vm's, and i save ton on money juice, and its nice and quiet
[05:54:41] *** rcjsuen has quit IRC
[06:05:29] <Al2O3> VMs are great, as long as you have tons of RAM (3-4 gigs) and dont' mind a down computer taking down all your computers/vms.
[06:05:40] <Al2O3> I have a lab of 10 minis, and distributed makes for a low risk to us.
[06:05:45] <Al2O3> depends on what you can tolerate.
[06:06:13] <Al2O3> we have another lab of more minis, and the risk is even lower :)
[06:08:13] <Sikosis> 10 minis ? macs ?
[06:08:27] <Al2O3> yes
[06:08:32] <Sikosis> nice
[06:09:25] <Al2O3> we have more, 3 vms per machine, or about 30+ hosts per lab, all for about 3K
[06:09:26] <Al2O3> each
[06:09:40] <Al2O3> wait, that is more like 5K per lab.
[06:09:52] <Al2O3> and 30 vms, or about 166 USD per machine.
[06:10:16] *** blk-majik has left #haiku
[06:10:38] <Al2O3> it works out really well and cheap, low risk, and the real issue is scheduling.
[06:18:34] <rennj> well if you had shared storage and vmotion then zero downtime
[06:18:49] <rennj> course im sure vmotion costs
[06:19:08] <rennj> and sharedstorage, i.e. a san costs
[06:19:27] <Al2O3> :)
[06:19:35] <Al2O3> yes, costs recurring as I recall.
[06:20:54] *** zeii has quit IRC
[06:21:51] <rennj> high availbility is pretty easy to achieve these days with clustering and clustering filesystems
[06:37:53] <Al2O3> These are one time costs, refurb units, 3 year coverage included, 10 units, 30 VMs, 5K USD. or about 10 cents a day per VM for the 3 year life of the cluster.
[06:38:00] <Al2O3> costs more per day in electricity to run
[06:38:18] <etteyafed> YEEAH. My new server is in the _mail_
[06:39:03] <umccullough> Al2O3, sorry, was afk for a while
[06:39:30] <umccullough> and will be moreso :P
[06:42:23] <etteyafed> You know what I hate about redhat distros. They are old on their release dates.
[06:42:42] <etteyafed> I hate that. because otherwise they are great products.
[06:44:01] <Al2O3> umccullough: now that I have the 2 files for the VM, do they need to be configured somehow, in a folder or how to use with VMWare.
[06:44:45] <umccullough> Al2O3, you just load the vmx file using vmware
[06:44:52] <umccullough> it has the name of the vmdk file in it
[06:45:08] <umccullough> just have to be in the same directory
[06:45:22] <Al2O3> cool.
[06:45:46] <umccullough> should "just work" :)
[06:46:05] <umccullough> and then you'll be asking: "How do I get more apps onto this image?"...heh

[08:17:49] <e1z0> hey
[08:19:39] <JonathanThompson> I dispute your assertion e1z0!
[08:20:02] <e1z0> :O
[08:20:18] <e1z0> its possible to boot haiku, beos, or zeta from usb key ?
[08:20:42] <JonathanThompson> I can't answer for certain about Zeta, but definitely not the other two at this time.
[08:20:53] *** joltz has quit IRC
[08:21:45] <e1z0> i have zeta cd without bootsector but i have floppy.img, the only bad news is that my laptop does not have floppy drive
[08:21:47] <e1z0> :-()
[08:22:33] <JonathanThompson> I had started a job in January 2005 and was issued a desktop-replacement laptop that was brand new at the time.... it took me over a year to realize it didn't have a floppy drive :)
[08:22:54] <e1z0> :-))
[08:23:05] <JonathanThompson> So laptops without 3.5" floppy drives are quire normal now, especially if the laptop has a writable optical drive.
[08:23:20] <e1z0> yes it has
[08:23:39] <e1z0> i need solution to write floppy image to usb key and boot from it
[08:23:48] <e1z0> but then i tried it not working
[08:23:58] <e1z0> booting... image not found
[08:24:01] <e1z0> or smth
[08:24:31] <JonathanThompson> Sadly, Zeta has come the closest to that working, as I seem to recall mention of booting off USB for it.
[08:25:11] <JonathanThompson> However, I don't have and have never had a working copy of Zeta, and part of that is I've got a motherboard wtih dual p3's that I understand from a bug report is one of those with broken SMP under Zeta anyway.
[08:26:12] <JonathanThompson> Haiku doesn't have 100% of USB support yet even without it being used as a boot device. Hopefully it'll be added in time, but there are still quite a few (OHCI, I think) USB controllers it goes "What are you, and what can you do for me? I don't understand YOU!" :)
[08:26:20] <Begasus> zeta cd without bootsector? ... :P

[16:40:41] <etteyafed> Hmmm... now I must see if that has helped a vm_page_fault problem I have been having. It would be really cool it it did.
[16:42:15] <JonathanThompson> Seems to me the VM is getting really close.
[16:42:28] <JonathanThompson> Asymptotically, perhaps.
[16:50:30] <etteyafed> I have noticed a few general speedups over the last few days. However the vidia driver still won't work with my card. Can't have it all I suppose.
[16:51:20] <JonathanThompson> Speedups are nice, but logically correct operation of the system is a far more important objective to hit first :)
[16:51:49] <JonathanThompson> Though system speedups are likely to come as a direct side-effect of correct operation, to some degree.
[16:51:54] *** dr_evil has joined #haiku
[16:52:00] <etteyafed> I don't really expect the driver to work for all the cards for quite some time. Yes, well correct operation sometimes results in an inevitable speedup.
[16:52:50] <ronny> yo
[16:53:08] <JonathanThompson> I strongly suspect by the time the CPU's I'm looking at buying are available for sale, I'll actually be able to run Haiku on the new hardware I'm likely to get.
[16:53:11] <ronny> is there any git/hg mirror of the haiku repos ?
[16:53:21] <JonathanThompson> There's svn.
[16:53:33] <JonathanThompson> That's the revision control software Haiku uses.
[16:54:06] <ronny> yeah - but creating a local git/hg mirror puts a large amount of load on the server
[16:54:15] <JonathanThompson> If you're looking for source code downloads, I think the one that's the main one is it.
[16:54:51] <ronny> im looking for something with full history
[16:55:17] <JonathanThompson> IIRC things started out first with CVS, then transitioned at some point to svn.
[16:55:46] <JonathanThompson> So, the current svn repository is likely your only source for source with full history.
[16:56:09] <ronny> but svn is really slow for any history ops :/
[16:56:33] <JonathanThompson> That's life, and often life sucks.
[16:56:38] *** AndrevS has joined #haiku
[16:56:43] <DeadYak> JonathanThompson: yeah, started off as CVS on SF
[16:56:52] <etteyafed> If you really want you can use bzr-svn

[16:56:58] <cps1966> yeah but openbeos
[16:57:48] <ronny> etteyafed: i never want to use bzr again (i had tonns of "fun" with it allready)
[16:58:30] <etteyafed> Yeah. I havn't had any trouble yet. I have seen no perfect vcs yet.

[16:59:33] <ronny> mm - thats large
[16:59:35] <dr_evil> 466 MB
[17:00:02] <ronny> well - lest see if i get it below 150 with git/hg
[17:00:03] <mmu_man> ronny I used perforce at yellowTAB, works quite well
[17:00:08] <JonathanThompson> If that contains everything from the start up to and including the last night, that doesn't seem all that large for what it is.
[17:00:11] <mmu_man> only downside is it's not free software
[17:00:18] *** Al2O3_ has joined #haiku
[17:00:18] <mmu_man> but for opensource projects it's free to use

[17:00:26] <dr_evil> well, the download is hidden for normal users
[17:00:29] <mmu_man> it doesn't create any extra file
[17:00:35] <mmu_man> well you can't have it all :P
[17:00:40] <ronny> mmu_man: im often commiting from train/the woods
[17:01:20] <mmu_man> well if you want to be able to commit without a connection you must have a depot mirror somewhere
[17:01:32] <mmu_man> you can't just do it ex nihilo

[17:01:55] <ronny> mmu_man: all free dvcs's do that for free
[17:02:21] <ronny> (a git/hg mirror is usualy smaller than a svn workdir)
[17:02:47] <mmu_man> so, what's the prob ?
[17:03:06] <ronny> mmu_man: projects that use the centralized ones

[17:07:41] <ronny> dr_evil: set up a git repo wih the dumps, then conect them to the main repo of haiku
[17:08:01] <ronny> mmu_man: git just needs good posix support
[17:08:46] <mmu_man> not so sure
[17:09:34] <ronny> mmu_man: it works well on bsd, its jsut problematic cause on windows, cause windows is odd

[17:51:58] <DeadYak> no hints as to the cause?
[17:54:09] <mmu_man> not much
[17:54:18] <mmu_man> maybe it's a bug in gcc4 that compiled it
[17:57:46] <cps1966> there are no bugs in gcc4
[17:58:16] <mmu_man> ugh ;)
[17:58:28] <etteyafed> None in Vista either.
[17:58:46] <cps1966> vista is a big bug
[17:58:51] <etteyafed> Or in the Haiku kernel for that matter.
[17:59:07] *** meisje has quit IRC
[17:59:20] <etteyafed> LOL - No bugs in Vista, Vista IS the bug.
[17:59:23] <cps1966> haiku kernel is dated
[17:59:34] *** kokito has joined #haiku
[18:00:08] <cps1966> gcc4 is asking for precise details is all
[18:00:13] <etteyafed> How can it be -dated- when it is being updated, revised, and develpoed on a daily basis
[18:00:52] <cps1966> try gcc4.3 then
[18:01:19] <cps1966> even more of a bitch
[18:01:38] <etteyafed> Well haiku builds and runs just fine for me on gcc 4.1.3
[18:02:17] <mmu_man> is it normal that src/system/kernel/linkhack.c is 0 bytes ?
[18:02:17] <etteyafed> I just normally use a 2.9 build so i can run Be stuff also.
[18:02:20] <mmu_man> suppose so
[18:02:34] <mmu_man> gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21)
[18:03:07] <dr_evil> mmu_man yes its normal
[18:03:19] <etteyafed> I don't think that that version is still a pre. 4.2 is out so there should be an upgrade with your name on it.
[18:04:03] <cps1966> gcc (GCC) 4.2.2 20070909
[18:04:16] *** Lelldorin1 has joined #haiku
[18:04:34] <etteyafed> 4.1.3 20070929 I guess it is all the same.

[18:05:26] <cps1966> sept 29 2007
[18:05:33] <etteyafed> Yeah, i mean I have a newer build of an older version. o likely a different distro.
[18:06:10] <mmu_man> I'm on debian stable
[18:06:24] <etteyafed> Ubuntu Gutsy
[18:06:47] <etteyafed> but there is only like 8 days left until the release now.
[18:06:57] *** agony_ has quit IRC
[18:08:12] <etteyafed> How long do they think Etch will be the latest? Just two years this time, or maybe 18 mos? ;)
[18:08:29] <etteyafed> Sorry. I couldn't resist.
[18:10:25] <mmu_man> eh
[18:10:46] <mmu_man> I could try gcc3..
[18:10:50] <mmu_man> not sure how to force that
[18:10:54] *** genkie has joined #haiku
[18:11:19] <etteyafed> just set CC=gcc-3.versionnumber and CXX=
[18:11:44] <etteyafed> but you may need to install it. they will co-exist
[18:14:38] <mmu_man> I do have it installed already
[18:14:53] <mmu_man> I think
[18:14:58] <mmu_man> yes
[18:15:01] <mmu_man> was needed for qemu
[18:15:14] <etteyafed> then just do CC= and CXX= jam -j2
[18:15:49] <mmu_man> no no!
[18:15:56] <etteyafed> no?
[18:15:58] <mmu_man> it's the cross compiler that needs to be built with it
[18:16:15] <etteyafed> oh my bad
[18:16:16] <mmu_man> actually binutils
[18:16:19] <etteyafed> i forgot
[18:16:49] <etteyafed> well it is the same but with ./configure
[18:17:05] <mmu_man> hmm no g++-3.4
[18:17:13] <mmu_man> maybe setting to gcc should do
[18:17:48] <etteyafed> well you should just install g++ also. But thats your call
[18:18:07] <etteyafed> i think it uses both.?
[18:18:14] <mmu_man> should be a single package
[18:18:37] <etteyafed> well they can be installed seperatly
[18:19:12] <etteyafed> they aren't all in one. but i think there may be a virt pkg for it
[18:19:58] <mmu_man> no g++ or gxx in aptitude
[18:20:03] <mmu_man> besides I have g++-4.1
[18:20:08] <mmu_man> oh well, let's see

[18:22:53] <etteyafed> in ubuntu the package is g++-3.4
[18:23:20] <mmu_man> I suppose debian doesn't split them
[18:23:37] <mmu_man> anyway, I think gcc can bootstrap with a C only compiler, we'll see

[20:01:35] <etteyafed> geist: PING ipro1000 question. Does the driver support the ipro1000 found in centrino duo laptops? It is 82573L but lists as ipro1000.
[20:02:09] <etteyafed> It uses the e1000 linux driver.
[20:04:05] <dr_evil> I don
[20:04:10] <dr_evil> 't know
[20:04:31] <dr_evil> we also have a ported e1000 with the new freebsd driver wrapper
[20:05:13] <etteyafed> dr_evil: sorry i forgot that YOU are Mr Overhagan
[20:05:56] <korli> dr_evil: just to let you know, in my case, ipro1000 is too old and the freebsd wrapped driver doesn't seem to work
[20:06:40] <etteyafed> Well it likely is not because it won't work for me atm. BUT that does not mean that there is no solution. Is the freebsd driver and wrapper commited?
[20:09:00] <dr_evil> yes it's in the tree. ipro1000 is also based on a very old freebsd e1000 driver
[20:09:30] <dr_evil> I didn't have time to update it, but at least it works with vmware and quite a few chipsets
[20:09:58] <etteyafed> Ok. The free bsd driver works for me on bsd so it should work in haiku if it is ported.
[20:10:18] <etteyafed> There is nothing i need to do to make it try and load?

[20:12:35] <mmu_man> pxe for ppc ??

[20:13:18] <mmu_man> etteyafed: I'm just making sure the ppc build works, before I try making an m68k one
[20:13:35] <etteyafed> Oh

[22:05:51] <CIA-5> rudolfc * r22497 /haiku/trunk/src/add-ons/kernel/drivers/graphics/nvidia/driver.c:
[22:05:51] <CIA-5> updated naming for some previous unknown cards, added 24 new cards for
[22:05:51] <CIA-5> support/recognition in the kernel driver, being GF 6xxx, 7xxx and 8xxx types.
[22:05:51] <CIA-5> Also two more nforce 6100 4x0 cards recognized now. NOTE: accelerant update will
[22:05:51] <CIA-5> come at a later date (soon I hope), needs more investigation first.

[22:09:56] <mmu_man> ncie one
[22:11:23] * wasosa__ is away: gotta work
[22:11:38] <MrSunshine_> RUDOLF?!
[22:11:41] <MrSunshine_> HES BACK?! :)
[22:11:55] <JonathanThompson> Either that, or someone hacked all his accounts and his mind :P
[22:12:15] <Haicube> Brilliant to have him back isn't it =)
[22:12:20] <MrSunshine_> yeah :)
[22:12:29] <MrSunshine_> allt ho i rather use ATI these days thanks to the open specs ;)
[22:12:37] <Haicube> LoL
[22:13:36] <JonathanThompson> Of course, if the recent story about iMacs freezing from ATI problems is any indication, perhaps nVidia is better in practice...
[22:13:53] <MrSunshine_> i dont care about macs ;)
[22:14:01] <Haicube> really, I don't care to be honest... I think they both have some serious issues...
[22:14:20] <JonathanThompson> That's a likely issue when a whole generation may last 6 months or less.
[22:14:39] <JonathanThompson> Something's got to give, and quality is usually the first to go with short development cycles with major functionality added.
[22:15:04] <Haicube> indeed
[22:15:25] <JonathanThompson> I saw it in the CD-ROM drive field before I left DADC.
[22:15:28] <Haicube> Now that I'm not a hardcore gamer anymore, I really don't see my abusing any modern gfx card. but maybe that's just me
[22:16:07] <Haicube> I'd prefer some old card with real stable drivers rather than latest and most hardcore stuff, unfortunately it's hard to find in a new box =)
[22:16:10] <JonathanThompson> When I do finally get a new box to replace this one, I suspect I won't be getting the top-of-the-line of what's currently available, as long as it is decent for everyday stuff in all OS's.
[22:16:22] <Haicube> They all seem to be more or less mate
[22:16:40] <JonathanThompson> Well, my next new box I predict will be a dual processor Xeon, so... not the typical game box :P
[22:16:45] <Haicube> Check fan noise level rather than throughput
[22:16:54] <Haicube> Indeed not
[22:17:03] <Haicube> Why not go for Dual Quad or something while at it
[22:17:04] <JonathanThompson> That is one of my more practical concerns, as well as waste heat.
[22:17:14] <JonathanThompson> That's why I'm waiting :)
[22:17:19] <JonathanThompson> (I had that planned for awhile)
[22:17:28] <Haicube> hehe
[22:17:32] <JonathanThompson> The SATA driver support is also a big thing I've been waiting on.
[22:17:40] <Haicube> for Haiku you mean or in general?
[22:17:52] <JonathanThompson> With that apparently working (or very close to it) I should be able to boot natively.
[22:17:56] <Haicube> you think Haiku will scale well on 8 cores?
[22:17:57] <JonathanThompson> Haiku.
[22:18:05] <JonathanThompson> If not, I'll help it :P
[22:18:07] <Haicube> Hehehe
[22:18:09] <Haicube> True
[22:18:23] <JonathanThompson> I have thoughts in mind for how I'll use 8 cores, even in my IDE.
[22:18:34] <Haicube> assuming Haiku keeps the slim way like BeOS did, you can produce miracle with just 1 modern core I suppose...
[22:18:50] <Haicube> not sure what 8 cores would do
[22:19:08] <JonathanThompson> Allow populating auto-completion databases from a huge project 8x faster :)
[22:19:15] <JonathanThompson> (Or close to it)
[22:19:16] <Haicube> LoL
[22:19:25] <Haicube> Ok
[22:19:38] <Haicube> not that I'm sure what that is but anyway
[22:19:40] <Haicube> BRB
[22:25:40] <Haicube> back
[22:26:35] <mmu_man> ok let's uninstall emacs and install xemacs :)
[22:26:42] <mmu_man> the only real one
[22:26:47] <mmu_man> </troll>
[22:26:55] * JonathanThompson slaps mmu_man with a wet salmon :)
[22:26:56] <DeadYak> EmacsOS!
[22:27:09] * JonathanThompson wanders back to work, more or less
[22:27:31] <DeadYak> text mode emacs is 42 MB?
[22:28:01] <mmu_man> no, emacs has a gui as well
[22:28:34] <DeadYak> oh?
[22:28:53] <DeadYak> what's the difference then?
[22:29:15] <mmu_man> politics :)
[22:29:25] <mmu_man> XEmacs forked from Emacs
[22:29:32] <mmu_man> and they keep bashing each other
[22:29:51] <Ketsuban> They both refuse to accept the truth - nano is the best editor.
[22:29:53] * Ketsuban runs

[22:35:31] <JamesB192> I thought I had, but after checking, I had not.
[22:36:29] <Haicube> Well in my POV, Textpad and GWD are the stuff... the others are just pointless "Notepads on steroids"
[22:37:09] <Haicube> but I figure I just haven't understood the Emacs Vim etc.....
