|

<adiamas> hey there.
|
||||
<Bagder> morning ;-)
|
||||
<adiamas> hehe for you ;)
|
||||
--> wavey (~wavey@dlan1431.dircon.co.uk) has joined #rockbox
|
||||
<Bagder> g'day wavey
|
||||
<wavey> howdy
|
||||
<adiamas> howdy wavey
|
||||
<wavey> hey adiamas
|
||||
<wavey> you have the recorder or player, adiamas?
|
||||
<adiamas> recorder
|
||||
<wavey> cool
|
||||
<adiamas> got it off of ebay for a nice cheap price.. :)
|
||||
<wavey> does yours have any quirks?
|
||||
<adiamas> one that ive noticed so far...
|
||||
<wavey> mine has dodgy contact in earphone socket
|
||||
<wavey> keeps resetting when moved :(
|
||||
<adiamas> if i remember correctly it was that i couldn't save the playlist...
|
||||
<adiamas> if i edited it when i was running.
|
||||
<wavey> only 3 months old
|
||||
<adiamas> from the player...
|
||||
<adiamas> if i do it from the command line, then transfer the file, all is well..
|
||||
<wavey> yeah
|
||||
<adiamas> well.. that and i had it completely barf on me last night.
|
||||
<wavey> i think that's normal crappy firmware
|
||||
<wavey> really?
|
||||
<adiamas> nod
|
||||
<wavey> recoverable, i hope?
|
||||
<adiamas> dunno what it was...
|
||||
<adiamas> yeah.. but i had to boot into windows to delete the disk.. clear it all out.
|
||||
<wavey> tsk
|
||||
<adiamas> i tried for like 4 hours in linux.. did everything i could think of...
|
||||
<adiamas> fsck
|
||||
<adiamas> fdisk
|
||||
<adiamas> fsck.vfat
|
||||
<adiamas> rm -rf
|
||||
<adiamas> hell, i even went as far as bit permisions...
|
||||
<adiamas> no go.
|
||||
<wavey> but windows was cool with it?
|
||||
<wavey> scary
|
||||
<adiamas> nods
|
||||
<adiamas> i did the windows "fake format"
|
||||
<adiamas> delete all :P
|
||||
<wavey> heh
|
||||
<adiamas> so badger.. how about setting a topic eh?
|
||||
<adiamas> :)
|
||||
--- Bagder gives channel operator status to adiamas
|
||||
<adiamas> heheh

|
||||
--- adiamas has changed the topic to: rock the box http://bjorn.haxx.se/rockbox/
|
||||
<adiamas> hehehe
|
||||
<adiamas> so im waiting on addition to sourceforge to toss up version one of the FAQ
|
||||
<Bagder> cool
|
||||
<wavey> haven't read email yet - how far is your simulator going, bagder?
|
||||
<Bagder> I didn't do much more yesterday
|
||||
<Bagder> I'm gonna attack the font code next
|
||||
<wavey> cool
|
||||
<Bagder> to make a function that outputs similar text on the recorder and X11
|
||||
<wavey> groovy
|
||||
<Bagder> hm, not similar, identical really
|
||||
<wavey> even better
|
||||
<Bagder> Jerome Kuptz posted on the list and volounteered to write a windows port for the ui sim
|
||||
<wavey> lovely
|
||||
<adiamas> bagder you have any source i can grab to look at the sim?
|
||||
<Bagder> I added the sources to the rockbox CVS yesterday
|
||||
<Bagder> its easiest to get them off there
|
||||
<adiamas> k... ill go look
|
||||
<Bagder> it isn't very much to look at yet though ;-)
|
||||
<Bagder> it pops up a window, draws a line and outputs a text
|
||||
<adiamas> itll get there ;)
|
||||
<Bagder> adiamas: did you by any chance do some X11 programming before?
|
||||
<adiamas> nope.. but im a quick study.
|
||||
<adiamas> some mild exp with qt
|
||||
<adiamas> my modem is going to explode with all these downloads :)
|
||||
<Bagder> it's good to keep it busy ;-)
|
||||
<adiamas> yup.. esp just before i head off to bed ;)
|
||||
<Bagder> Gary's lcd code keeps a full copy of the bitmap in memory, and writes the whole thing to the lcd all the time
|
||||
<Bagder> which probably makes it easier to make a X11 version too
|
||||
<adiamas> that would make sense...
|
||||
<adiamas> has anyone finalized at all on what exactly our first target/goal is to achieve?
|
||||
<Bagder> not really, no
|
||||
<wavey> i think we need to produce a simple menu UI first
|
||||
<wavey> get that working on both player and recorder
|
||||
<adiamas> nods
|
||||
<wavey> and then look at how to approach the diff UI capabilities of the two devices
|
||||
<adiamas> some kinda lib that makes ui creation pretty simple would be nice
|
||||
<wavey> aye
|
||||
<adiamas> i havne't played with just the player.. so i don't really know the differences yet...
|
||||
<adiamas> oh.. btw ... when i post things.. forgive the spelling... i am a HORRID speller...
|
||||
<adiamas> put my mother (english teach for 20 yrs) into fits of tears :)
|
||||
* adiamas swells with pride
|
||||
<wavey> player has tiny screen
|
||||
<wavey> 3 lines or something like that
|
||||
<wavey> instead of 8
|
||||
<wavey> getting a simple menu ui up and running allows the back-end firmware developers to test their stuff
|
||||
<adiamas> ahhhh
|
||||
<wavey> so we need a) screen drawing capabilities
|
||||
<adiamas> ummm.. using cvs, how do i do a pull of all files in a dir?
|
||||
<wavey> b) file browsing capabilities
|
||||
<wavey> (to locate a file to play and stop, etc)
|
||||
<Bagder> adiamas: see http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=44306, replace "modulename" with uisimulator
|
||||
<adiamas> good.. just did that...
|
||||
<wavey> and c) basic controls to start, stop, pause an mp3
|
||||
<wavey> the 2nd generation UI can have the visual goodies - levels, scrolling titles, etc
|
||||
<wavey> the simple ui shouldn't take too long
|
||||
<adiamas> okay.. explain to me.. WTF would sourceforge require use of ssh1 when its known to be flawed?
|
||||
<adiamas> when not go to ssh2?
|
||||
<wavey> flawed doesn't mean useless
|
||||
<wavey> i guess
|
||||
* adiamas nods
|
||||
<adiamas> um Bagder you do realize your FILES lists a README, but there isn't one right?
|
||||
<Bagder> oops
|
||||
<adiamas> and just a question of taste... are we doing 2, 4, or 8 char tab stops?
|
||||
<Bagder> I do 8 char tab stops, c indenting with 2 spaces
|
||||
<adiamas> nods
|
||||
<Bagder> (setq c-basic-offset 2)
|
||||
<Bagder> (setq indent-tabs-mode nil)
|
||||
<Bagder> :-)
|
||||
<adiamas> i lean toward 4 myself.. but as long as i can map emacs to you im good :)
|
||||
* adiamas curses rh7.1
|
||||
<adiamas> friggin X11 headers are missing.
|
||||
<adiamas> hehehe yup
|
||||
<adiamas> or
|
||||
<adiamas> :set tabstop 4
|
||||
<adiamas> :set tabstop 8
|
||||
<adiamas> if you use a real _editor_
|
||||
<Bagder> hehehe
|
||||
<Bagder> hm, I wonder if using XDrawPoints() is sensible to use...
|
||||
<Bagder> I removed the FILES file now
|
||||
--> Zagor (~bjst@labb.contactor.se) has joined #rockbox
|
||||
<Zagor> yo boys
|
||||
<Bagder> morning
|
||||
<Zagor> have you looked at the new "mods" page I added to the web page?
|
||||
<Bagder> great sets of pics! ;-)
|
||||
<Zagor> thanks
|
||||
<Zagor> i should be a model! :-D
|
||||
<Bagder> btw Zagor, I think I go with Gary's fonts and his way of representing the lcd in memory
|
||||
<Zagor> ok
|
||||
<Bagder> the bytes are then vertical, lsb on top
|
||||
<wavey> zagor: nice pictures
|
||||
<Zagor> can you have >8 pixel wide chars?
|
||||
<Zagor> or high, i mean
|
||||
<Bagder> Well, we'll have a complete 112x64 pic in memory so we can make whatever we want
|
||||
<Zagor> thanks, wavey
|
||||
<Bagder> we write the complete bitmap
|
||||
<Bagder> at least to start with
|
||||
<Zagor> bagder: so why do we want vertical bytes? it ends up as a lot more bit flipping to get the pixels out
|
||||
<Bagder> because that's how the lcd itself has them
|
||||
<Bagder> makes faster updates
|
||||
<Zagor> ok, so the 112x64 pixmap is vertically oriented?
|
||||
<Bagder> each byte is 8 pixels "high", byte 0 is top left, byte 1 is 2nd left etc
|
||||
<Zagor> ok. makes sense, then
|
||||
<Bagder> I'm making three files now, lcd.c with generic lcd stuff, lcd-recorder.c that writes the bitmap to a recorder and lcd-x11.c that writes the bitmap to an x11 window
|
||||
<adiamas> were staying c based for now correct?
|
||||
<Zagor> yes
|
||||
<Bagder> yes
|
||||
<adiamas> or are we going straight to c++?
|
||||
<adiamas> k...
|
||||
<Zagor> no :)
|
||||
<adiamas> damnit... way to early here... can someone remind me the name of the file that allows you to turn services on and off?
|
||||
<adiamas> i konw its not /etc/services
|
||||
* adiamas needs bed bad
|
||||
<Zagor> uh, redhat?
|
||||
<Bagder> /etc/inetd.conf ?
|
||||
<adiamas> thats it.. thank you.

|
||||
<Bagder> hey
|
||||
<Bagder> it works ;-)
|
||||
<wavey> what does?
|
||||
<Bagder> my new code, using a memory bitmap and lcd_update()
|
||||
<wavey> nice one :)
|
||||
<Bagder> exact same pixel-setup as the recorder would get
|
||||
<wavey> coolio
|
||||
<wavey> very useful
|
||||
<Bagder> very tiny letters though :-)
|
||||
<Bagder> I should probably allow some zooming or somthing
|
||||
<Bagder> so, now we can write a small program using the new lcd API, and the output seen in the X11 window is what will be seen on the recorder screen as well

--> Tumm (coyote@dreamhosted.borlange.se) has joined #rockbox
|
||||
<Tumm> lo
|
||||
<wavey> excellent
|
||||
<wavey> hiya tumm
|
||||
<Bagder> hi
|
||||
<Bagder> XDrawPoints() was all I needed
|
||||
<wavey> well, technically, XDrawPoint() is all you needed ;)
|
||||
<Bagder> right, but one at a time turned out very slow
|
||||
<wavey> :)
|
||||
<wavey> surely XDrawPoints() uses a lot of XDrawPoint()?
|
||||
<Bagder> I'm running my X11-windows over ssh from a machine far away ;-)
|
||||
<wavey> or is that naive?
|
||||
<wavey> ah
|
||||
<wavey> heh
|
||||
<Bagder> well, it doesn't make them appear one by one, but instead all at once
|
||||
<Bagder> and it makes a huge difference
|
||||
<Bagder> time to eat

--> alankrr (jbcoax@srs03v-7-104.n.club-internet.fr) has joined #rockbox
|
||||
<alankrr> hi people
|
||||
<wavey> happy fooding.
|
||||
<wavey> hiya alan
|
||||
<alankrr> oh yes i forget ! :) it's time for eating
|
||||
<wavey> :)
|
||||
<alankrr> i wonder why zagor doesn't reply
|
||||
<alankrr> but now i know
|
||||
<alankrr> ok what's up ?
|
||||
<wavey> daniel's ui simulator is coming along
|
||||
<wavey> he's got the same images appearing in X as will appear in the recorder lcd
|
||||
<alankrr> yes but is it using the same layout ?
|
||||
<wavey> including characters, i think
|
||||
<wavey> layout?
|
||||
<alankrr> i mean the way to set a pixel in LCD
|
||||
<wavey> you mean the API?
|
||||
<wavey> i think that's the idea
|
||||
<alankrr> ah ok it's just at the high level
|
||||
<wavey> X is just an output alternative, the recorder's lcd is another
|
||||
<wavey> the API is the same
|
||||
<wavey> hopefully ;)
|
||||
<alankrr> well, there are ways to put images at pixel coordinates
|
||||
<alankrr> but ye must use a shifter table
|
||||
<alankrr> 'cause shift instructions on SH1 are not smart enough
|
||||
<wavey> ah
|
||||
<alankrr> so it is why i asked if this simulator works by simulating the LCD layout on X
|
||||
<alankrr> but never mind, it is not an urgent thing to do :)
|
||||
<alankrr> you are the only one here ?
|
||||
<wavey> at the moment, yep
|
||||
<wavey> the swedes are having lunch, it seems
|
||||
<alankrr> and how many time will Bagder and Zagor be here in ?
|
||||
<alankrr> yes it's normal
|
||||
<wavey> try again in an hour or so
|
||||
<alankrr> okay see you all later

||||

|
||||
<Bagder> back
|
||||
<alkorr> oh good
|
||||
<alkorr> maybe you don't know me ?
|
||||
<Bagder> no I don't, who are you? ;-)
|
||||
<alkorr> arf, i know you brother in fact :)
|
||||
<Bagder> we're all a big happy family here anyway! ;-)
|
||||
<Bagder> btw, the lcd "simulator" is based on the original working recorder lcd code by Gary Czvitkovicz
|
||||
<Bagder> so it should work pretty much already
|
||||
<alkorr> yes i know, i've just reread your emails
|
||||
<Bagder> and I'm working on getting the same API to work on both the recorder and X11
|
||||
<Bagder> and I hope to do a similar dual approach for jukebox/X11 output later
|
||||
<alkorr> well it would be very difficult :)
|
||||
<Bagder> why?
|
||||
<alkorr> with just 2 lines with only 11 characters
|
||||
<Bagder> yes, then I'll make a small X11-windows 2 lines high, 11 chars wide. that's not too difficult
|
||||
<alkorr> and each characters are seperate with at least 3 pixels
|
||||
<alkorr> so you are very limited for fx
|
||||
<Bagder> I know
|
||||
<Bagder> but that's what we have, that's not anything I can do to change
|
||||
<alkorr> for example, scrolling can only be done on basis of characters not pixel
|
||||
<Bagder> yes
|
||||
<alkorr> etc.
|
||||
<Bagder> why is that difficult then?
|
||||
<alkorr> because it is a character-LCD not a graphical LCD
|
||||
<Bagder> I'm not planning to make one single unified API for both platforms
|
||||
<alkorr> ok
|
||||
<alkorr> anyway we need a begining for a start ;)
|
||||
<Bagder> true
|
||||
<alkorr> by the way, i know very well the SH1
|
||||
<alkorr> its advantages and disadvantages and its on-chip peripherals
|
||||
<Bagder> that's useful indeed. I've did my share of SH1 assembler, but that was some 6 years ago now
|
||||
<alkorr> :)
|
||||
<alkorr> gcc doesn't generate very well code as ia32 does :(
|
||||
<alkorr> let me explain to you
|
||||
<alkorr> there are two possibility to branch
|
||||
<alkorr> one is using jsr or jmp with a register containing the address to call or to jump
|
||||
<alkorr> another one using bsr or bra with an 12-bit immediate offset
|
||||
<alkorr> gcc don't generate brs nor bra
|
||||
<alkorr> so it will use several registers to be able to use jsr or jmp
|
||||
<Bagder> well, it should be possible to fix the gcc, even it its quite hard I figure
|
||||
<alkorr> i tried with static functions close to a function which calls those static functions
|
||||
<alkorr> without success
|
||||
<alkorr> well there several example like this which explains why I prefer not to use C for all
|
||||
<Bagder> for loops that is gonna make a difference, but for most code it is a penalty we can take, imho
|
||||
<alkorr> so you mustn't be surprised to see a lot of asm in my source
|
||||
<alkorr> i don't care for speed
|
||||
<alkorr> but for space
|
||||
<Bagder> you restrict the audience quite a lot by using asm, as not many people will be able to read it nor write it
|
||||
<wavey> low level functions can be asm
|
||||
<wavey> that's not a problem at all
|
||||
<alkorr> i'm speaking about low functions, not for your GUI :)
|
||||
<wavey> screen updating code can be a complex as you wan
|
||||
<wavey> because people will access it from C
|
||||
<alkorr> so we are okay
|
||||
<wavey> yup
|
||||
<Bagder> indeed
|
||||
<wavey> hoorah!
|
||||
* wavey chuckles
|
||||
* Bagder smiles
|
||||
<alkorr> it is not in my intention to do all the stuff in asm
|
||||
<Bagder> what parts are gonna start (have you started) with?
|
||||
<alkorr> LCD
|
||||
<alkorr> USB
|
||||
<alkorr> let me see my source
|
||||
<alkorr> timer
|
||||
<alkorr> lcd+backlight+led
|
||||
<alkorr> where i'm using atomic operation to set or clear port A and B
|
||||
<alkorr> so asm+c
|
||||
<alkorr> a start of ATA
|
||||
<alkorr> but i lost the main part in a harddisk crash
|
||||
<alkorr> ata is C
|
||||
<Bagder> what kind of lcd code do you have?
|
||||
<alkorr> for JBP
|
||||
<alkorr> i send you my source
|
||||
<Bagder> please do
|
||||
<Bagder> mail me at daniel@haxx.se
|
||||
<Bagder> my usb2 card has arrived!
|
||||
<alkorr> i don't send all my package
|
||||
<Bagder> I'm mainly interested in the lcd parts sright now
|
||||
<alkorr> just LCD parts and headers you could need
|
||||
<Bagder> right, thanks
|
||||
<alkorr> for JBR i don't try because i lose my JBR
|
||||
<alkorr> so i cannot try it
|
||||
<Bagder> I already have working code for the recorder
|
||||
<Bagder> I'll make a little api for the player built on your code
|
||||
<Bagder> did anyone make a table of all the available letters/characters on the player's LCD screen?
|
||||
<Zagor> yes
|
||||
<wavey> it's on the notes page next to the recorders
|
||||
<Zagor> it's not the recorder's, it's the player versions
|
||||
<Zagor> the new and old have different charsets
|
||||
<alkorr> there is difference between old and new text-lcd in JBP
|
||||
<alkorr> i have the new one which is quite compliant with ascii table
|
||||
<Bagder> aha, it could be clarified on the web page...
|
||||
<alkorr> by the way i'm not sure about my tables :)
|
||||
<alkorr> i never test them thoroughly
|
||||
<wavey> test?
|
||||
<wavey> what is that? ;)
|
||||
<alkorr> and even worse for old lcd since i don't have one
|
||||
<Bagder> btw, how do we read/fetch input from the keys currently?
|
||||
<alkorr> in lcd.c there is two tables for characters translations
|
||||
<alkorr> so our api can work with new and old taxt-lcd without changing our strings to display
|
||||
<alkorr> for the moment i use a polling method
|
||||
<alkorr> in fact it is the only way
|
||||
<alkorr> i'm speaking about JBP (player)
|
||||
<Bagder> fine enough, I would just like a defined api on how to do it
|
||||
<alkorr> in the original firmware, they use the interrupt itu0 for polling keys
|
||||
<alkorr> for JBR, it is much more complicated
|
||||
<alkorr> i explain
|
||||
<alkorr> you have two pins for two groups of fours keys
|
||||
<alkorr> those two pins are analogic
|
||||
<alkorr> so you need to scan periodically their pins and translate their value to determine which key is pressed or released
|
||||
<alkorr> a way it is to use the interrupt ADC in scan mode which gives us the value and will translate them in a more practical bitmap or somethig like it
|
||||
<alkorr> another way is to use the dma to scan those pins and generate the interrupt dei to translate
|
||||
<Bagder> I don't think you understand what I want ;-)
|
||||
<alkorr> ok you want for player or for recorder
|
||||
<alkorr> ?
|
||||
<Bagder> both preferably, but one at a time is fine too
|
||||
<alkorr> i just have for player
|
||||
<alkorr> ok
|
||||
<alkorr> as you can see it isn't a generic API for keyboard
|
||||
<alkorr> but you know where to poll them
|
||||
<Bagder> is there anything that prevents us from creating a "generic" api for this?
|
||||
<alkorr> no of course
|
||||
<alkorr> i was doing that in key.c but it is not my priority in fact
|
||||
<alkorr> so we are free to do so
|
||||
<alkorr> if you need info i can help you to do so
|
||||
<Bagder> because since I want to "simulate" this on X11, it gets easier if I can simulate the API
|
||||
<alkorr> yes but we need first to know what we need
|
||||
<alkorr> and quite now I'm still unsure about it
|
||||
<alkorr> so I don't have a clear API for keyboard
|
||||
<Bagder> yes, that sounds logical ;-)
|
||||
<alkorr> keyboard event to handle for exapmle ?
|
||||
<alkorr> are you using events ?
|
||||
<Bagder> x11 events?
|
||||
<alkorr> you know like in X or Windows or in TurboVision (if you knew that ;)
|
||||
<Bagder> yes, this is x11 it uses events
|
||||
<alkorr> something which can represent input or output event to handle by several entities
|
||||
<alkorr> i'm speaking about our final rockbox
|
||||
<Bagder> I'm not ;-)
|
||||
<alkorr> if you want an API
|
||||
<Bagder> I only want a simple input api
|
||||
<alkorr> to simulate
|
||||
<Bagder> it could be changed or improved later on
|
||||
<alkorr> well there is two possibilities
|
||||
<alkorr> using keybitmap
|
||||
<alkorr> or using key buffer
|
||||
<alkorr> to use a key buffer
|
||||
<alkorr> can you send me your file so i can see the way to handle UI ?
|
||||
<Bagder> its in CVS, there are many files
|
||||
<Bagder> its really simple: lcd_update() updates the screen
|
||||
<alkorr> oh that's true ??? ok i go and download them
|
||||
<Bagder> lcd_string() outputs a string
|
||||
<Bagder> lcd_position() sets the "cursor"
|
||||
<Bagder> so far
|
||||
<alkorr> direct actions on lcd ?
|
||||
<alkorr> or using buffer ?
|
||||
<Bagder> no, they manipulate the buffer and lcd_update() writes to the lcd
|
||||
<alkorr> so why lcd_update, ok
|
||||
<Bagder> but for the player I can't see any point in keeping a buffer
|
||||
<alkorr> by the way, isn't it Linus which has started something about fat32 ?
|
||||
<alkorr> i lost 3/4 of my works on it and i'm very down to redo all
|
||||
<Bagder> the web page says Alan, is that you? ;-)
|
||||
<Zagor> yes, he has some code for it
|
||||
<alkorr> yes but i did have a crash which causes loss of files which are exceeding 4 KB
|
||||
<Zagor> ok. we'll reassign that for linus
|
||||
<alkorr> in fact my fat32 was tighly coupled with ata
|
||||
<Zagor> so what should I put efter your name, alan? :)
|
||||
<Bagder> Zagor: you could modify my "planning" to "partly working"
|
||||
<Zagor> ok
|
||||
<alkorr> name of your mudule, Badger ?
|
||||
<Bagder> uisimulator
|
||||
<alkorr> well i would like to be able to use my serial as i could do before the crash
|
||||
<alkorr> it would be more easier to test my ATA
|
||||
<alkorr> if Linus can pass me his source i can adapt or modify it to use ATA
|
||||
<Zagor> i'll tell him
|
||||
<Bagder> we want Linus's source in CVS too
|
||||
<Zagor> yes
|
||||
<alkorr> it would speed my work instead of redoing all
|
||||
<alkorr> ok got it (uisimulator)
|
||||
<alkorr> cool your headers ;)
|
||||
<Bagder> it just does one lcd_string() and then it does lcd_update() and it shows the string
|
||||
<Bagder> hehe, thanks to figlet really
|
||||
<Zagor> the figlet man :-)
|
||||
--> linus (~linus@labb.contactor.se) has joined #rockbox
|
||||
<alkorr> be aware with shift operation
|
||||
<Bagder> lcd-recorder.c is the recorder-versions, lcd-x11.c is X stuff and lcd.c is generic
|
||||
<linus> Hi folks
|
||||
<alkorr> hi linus
|
||||
<alkorr> ok
|
||||
<Bagder> hey ho Linus
|
||||
<linus> I'll dig up my FAT32 source as soon as I get home
|
||||
<alkorr> you don't plan to have a buffer greater than screen for having vertical or horizontal scrolling on screen ?
|
||||
* Zagor wants Boulder Dash 8*D
|
||||
<Bagder> blah, I "plan" all sorts of things, this is not the final complete code
|
||||
* linus wants Tetris
|
||||
<linus> and Breakout
|
||||
<Bagder> this is for setting an api to play with
|
||||
<Bagder> increasing the buffer is a piece of cake should we want that
|
||||
<alkorr> well, I2C RTC is quite slow
|
||||
<alkorr> oh soory
|
||||
<alkorr> oh sorry, forget what i said
|
||||
<alkorr> there is no connection with lcd
|
||||
<alkorr> :)
|
||||
<Bagder> Gary said he got about 20frames/sec writing fullscreen, that's not too slow I'd say
|
||||
<alkorr> ok
|
||||
<alkorr> i just want to be sure there is nothing else which can reduce time
|
||||
<alkorr> my lcd was written to have the less time between two bits sent
|
||||
<alkorr> we cannot do it better
|
||||
<alkorr> (zagor) maybe MAS I2C can be slower in JBR than in JBP because of I2C RTC
|
||||
<Zagor> maybe
|
||||
<Bagder> linus: you should bring your gdb efforts to the CVS archive, alkorr wants 'em ;-)
|
||||
<Zagor> i have some new pictures and shematics for the serial cable. coming up in a minute
|
||||
<alkorr> well so long as i don't know why my serial doesn't work any longer it wouldn't be helpful
|
||||
<alkorr> i prefer to send my binary to a person who has a JBP and a working serial to tell me if it works
|
||||
<linus> I have a working serial
|
||||
<alkorr> any volunteer ?
|
||||
<Zagor> well my serial port is toast, unfortunately :-(
|
||||
<linus> ...but the rest of the archos is fried at the moment...
|
||||
<alkorr> beuuuuuuh :,((((
|
||||
<linus> ...but i can use my CPU board in Björns player. That works.
|
||||
<alkorr> oh good
|
||||
<linus> I will put the final touch on the stub on my trip to France next week. I'll keep you posted.
|
||||
<alkorr> okay i will prepare a simple binary which only communicate with serial line (no ata stuff or something which could lead to damage)
|
||||
<Zagor> uit
|
||||
<-- Zagor has quit ("Leaving")
|
||||
<linus> Hehe. I appreciate that...
|
||||
--> Zagor (~bjst@labb.contactor.se) has joined #rockbox
|
||||
<linus> Alan, is your serial port damaged or what?
|
||||
<alkorr> i want to be sure if it is my serial converter or my software which in pains
|
||||
<linus> Aaah.
|
||||
<alkorr> it is what i want to know
|
||||
<alkorr> it worked
|
||||
<alkorr> ok let me prepare the binary
|
||||
<wavey> hey linus
|
||||
<wavey> nice to meet you
|
||||
<linus> yo!
|
||||
<alkorr> okay
|
||||
<alkorr> to whom must i send the binary ?
|
||||
<Zagor> send it to linus@haxx.se
|
||||
<alkorr> ok but wait, it looks as if my strings are corrupted... it may be the reason
|
||||
<Zagor> ok
|
||||
<alkorr> anyway i suppose you won't be able to do so now
|
||||
<alkorr> no i can see on my lcd the string :/
|
||||
<alkorr> but my terminal doesn't display my string but some "@" can appear sometimes, any clues ?
|
||||
<Bagder> nope
|
||||
<alkorr> linus, i send you the first version by dcc send
|
||||
<alkorr> sorry, Badger you cannot dcc get my files ?
|
||||
<Zagor> now the rs232 converter is up on the mods page
|
||||
<Zagor> drawings and the whole shebang
|
||||
<alkorr> linus and badger : can you dcc get my files ? i should cancel those for Badger
|
||||
<Zagor> linus is away right now
|
||||
<Bagder> hm, I think I can receive dcc
|
||||
<alkorr> so i retry
|
||||
<alkorr> 8 files
|
||||
<Bagder> I've never received files using xchat before, but nothing seems to happen
|
||||
<Zagor> have you clicked "accept" or something?
|
||||
<Zagor> i think you need to mark it and accept it
|
||||
<Bagder> that's "auto accept" and I thought I'd get a question if I don't auto-accept
|
||||
<Bagder> absolutely nothing happens
|
||||
<Zagor> odd
|
||||
<alkorr> try : /dcc get alkorr
|
||||
<Bagder> that won't work due to my firewall
|
||||
<alkorr> i retry file by file
|
||||
<alkorr> instead of sending all file in one time
|
||||
<alkorr> oh okay
|
||||
<alkorr> oh yes the firewall
|
||||
<Bagder> but still, the announcement of the dcc is done using ctcp and that is plain irc so my client should still say something
|
||||
<alkorr> well i can send to zagor but not receive from zagor, seems to be a similar problem but the main difference is i'm using mIRC on Windows
|
||||
<alkorr> Badger : for key.h, macros cannot be used with variable as parameter -> key_pressed (ON) OK but key_pressed (key) ERROR
|
||||
<alkorr> there are just for commodity in developping
|
||||
<alkorr> i also lost my memory.c which handled a block or bytes allocation (using a similar slab techniques for blocks and bytes allocation in a block)
|
||||
<wavey> losing your memory.c is a sign of old age
|
||||
<wavey> or too much weed
|
||||
<Bagder> lcd_string() bugs :-/
|
||||
<linus> Alan, what is supposed to happen when running the program?
|
||||
<Zagor> bagder: alans files are at bjorn.haxx.se/rockbox/jox/
|
||||
<Zagor> go fetch :-)
|
||||
<alkorr> oh sorry
|
||||
<alkorr> ok
|
||||
<alkorr> well, it displays on the lcd :
|
||||
<alkorr> <<< JBP >>>
|
||||
<alkorr> and
|
||||
<linus> No it doesn't
|
||||
<alkorr> OK WORKING!
|
||||
<Zagor> haha
|
||||
<alkorr> what do you get ?
|
||||
<linus> It hangs without displaying enything
|
||||
<alkorr> i repeat what you must have is :
|
||||
<alkorr> "<<< JBP >>>"
|
||||
<alkorr> "OK WORKING!"
|
||||
<alkorr> don't plug you serial at boot
|
||||
<Zagor> i'm going, guys. see you later.
|
||||
<alkorr> it doesn't work at this moment, firmware doesn't clean very well
|
||||
<-- Zagor has quit ("Leaving")
|
||||
<alkorr> if it doesn't work yet
|
||||
<linus> all I can see it the "JUKEBOX 6GB bla bla..." and then it hangs
|
||||
<alkorr> hummm...
|
||||
<linus> *** back soon ***
|
||||
<alkorr> oh where do you plug your serail ? on the line-in ?
|
||||
<alkorr> try to send '0' or '1' to turn on or off backlight
|
||||
<linus> I have tried that. Nothing happens.
|
||||
<alkorr> if not, interrupts are ignored and so it got an error (overrun, frame or parity error)
|
||||
<alkorr> can you dcc get ?
|
||||
<alkorr> oh by the way did you scramble the bnary ?
|
||||
<linus> Havenb't tried. Shoot!
|
||||
<alkorr> you must do it
|
||||
<linus> I have a tip. Shut off all timer nterrupts: TIERo = 0, TIER1 = 0, etc.
|
||||
<linus> I didn't scramble it. That must be it. Hang on!
|
||||
<alkorr> there is not interrupt for sending jsut a polling
|
||||
<alkorr> but for receiving there is an interrupt (is that way i can turn on or off backlight when receiving '0' or '1')
|
||||
<linus> ...still dead, even after scrambling
|
||||
<alkorr> no lcd displaying ?
|
||||
<linus> Nope
|
||||
<linus> FYI, I have firmware 3.18
|
||||
<linus> Try to blink the red LED in the polling loop
|
||||
<alkorr> hummm, let me create a source package so you can modify and compile it...
|
||||
<linus> Great!
|
||||
<alkorr> can you dcc get ?
|
||||
<alkorr> linus ?
|
||||
<linus> Yup. Gimme da filez
|
||||
<alkorr> trouble ?
|
||||
<linus> "No file offered in SEND mode by alkorr"
|
||||
<linus> Alan?
|
||||
<linus> Alan: what is the name of the file?
|
||||
<alkorr> yes
|
||||
<alkorr> backup.tgz
|
||||
<alkorr> and now ?
|
||||
<alkorr> ok i was trying to send to Zagor :)
|
||||
<linus> :-)
|
||||
<alkorr> i move the sit() (enable interrupts) just after sending "Ok WORKING!"
|
||||
<alkorr> oops, sti ()
|
||||
<alkorr> tabs = 2 spaces
|
||||
<linus> Alan, I have to go now. I will look into your stuff ASAP. CU!
|
||||
<alkorr> ok i must also to go :)
|
||||
<-- linus has quit ("Leaving")
|
||||
<alkorr> bye all !
|
||||
<-- alkorr has quit ()
|
||||
<Bagder> lcd_string() works again, time to stop for today
|
||||
<-- wavey (~wavey@dlan1431.dircon.co.uk) has left #rockbox
