<sid_on> did anyone get time to check gentoo cross compiling?
<zear> sid_on, i used gentoo cross compilation for jornada 720
<zear> while it is quite handy, i'd rather go with a normal, independent toolchain, that is tuned to work with the exact hardware you want to compile for
<sid-user> zear: yeaa; main OS is wrt; its like debian just a alternative system
<sid-user> zear: i think at the moment i'am alone which is a bit frustating
<sid_on> zear: maybe you want to try it; 'overlay' is a bit outdated because i recompile everything from scratch but it should work
<zear> nah, i have a bad experience with crosscompiling with gentoo
<sid_on> its a mess but most problems are layer 8;
<sid_on> most problems are already solved
<sid_on> --> at the moment it does not boot anymore; something is wrong with /dev - for comment
<nebajoth> y halo thar.
<rafa> nebajoth: buenos dias
<wolfspraul> gbraad: you there?
<jxself> My Ben arrived today! Woo Hoo!
<freespace> woot
<jxself> Indeed. Too bad it's at home & I'm at work.
<freespace> nod
<ezdagor> Well, I got the ks7010 driver working.. couldn't figure out how to stop it from writing to the console every second. I came up with a fix, though. So, if anyone wants to save a lot of time. Just edit "/etc/sysctl.conf" and add the line: "kernel.printk = 3 4 1 3"
<wpwrak> jxself: take a week off ? :)
<ezdagor> It will supress "lowlevel messages" to the console.
<jxself> Perhaps. :)
<ezdagor> Anyone know what the "GPIO Matrix" is?
<ezdagor> I'm trying to get the mouse working, and I came across that in the kernel .config file.
<mth> ezdagor: might be the matrix keyboard connected to GPIO pins
<ezdagor> Ah. I see.
<ezdagor> I also noticed a GSM modem..
<ManoftheSea> Probably just packages that support hardware on other devices.
<ezdagor> I'm trying to get a mouse (PS2) working with the NN. I've compiled various PS2 drivers into the kernel, and there appears to be a /dev/psaux, but it doesn't seem usable.
<ezdagor> At least with gpm.
<rafa> ezdagor: but how did you plug the mouse to ben?
<rafa> or how do you plug..
<wpwrak> kewl. atmel simulated the balun in one of their designs with qucs :)
<wpwrak> deplores the absence of test pads for usb host in the ben
<wpwrak> hmm, i just opened the display (finally). but i still don't see how to release the hinge :-( i'll need this for the scans in a few days.
