2011-05-18 00:00 ok, then you  need a *really* experienced fab, which knows their business to get it right without much fiddling and try&error 2011-05-18 00:01 maybe even offers some guaranteed yield 2011-05-18 00:01 (which they achieve by manual repair where needed) 2011-05-18 00:01 I.E: a fab specialized on ultralow qty 2011-05-18 00:02 i think that's what they do, yes (small quantities) 2011-05-18 00:02 you *might* be even better off with manual assembly 2011-05-18 00:02 they're in spain, not china ;) 2011-05-18 00:03 hmm, then no manual asly 2011-05-18 00:03 ;-) 2011-05-18 00:03 maybe in a few years, after the european south's economy has been bombed back to medieval standards, ... 2011-05-18 00:03 the Spanish are too expensive and not as myopic as the Chinese 2011-05-18 00:04 duh, almost exactly my wording of a few hours ago 2011-05-18 00:05 I actually said "Greece getting economy-bombed back into ~1920" 2011-05-18 00:06 [2011-05-17 16:04:25] not all of a joke, when you look at Greece getting economy-bombed back to ~1920 2011-05-18 00:07 they'll still miss that special chinese affinity to microscopic things 2011-05-18 00:09 Spanish mentality is more like the russian "let's build everything like it was a tank" 2011-05-18 00:10 oh, the myopia will develop naturally - helps with finding food :) 2011-05-18 00:10 the russian approach isn't too bad, all things considered 2011-05-18 00:10 sure, but incompatible to SMT 2011-05-18 00:12 nanotanks ;-) 2011-05-18 00:12 LOL 2011-05-18 00:14 me counters with "Ecranoplan" 2011-05-18 00:16 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ekranoplan ?

2011-05-18 03:11 as long as it's about copyleft hardware. :) 2011-05-18 03:12 of course! :) 2011-05-18 03:12 what name you want? 2011-05-18 03:12 man-tiny, please 2011-05-18 03:12 shot name 2011-05-18 03:12 ok 2011-05-18 03:17 unclouded: what is your username in projects.qi-hardware.com?

2011-05-18 04:48 unclouded: we can not just 'drop' it to that folder, there are a package list under that URL 2011-05-18 04:48 Packages.gz. 2011-05-18 04:48 http://downloads.qi-hardware.com/software/packages/NanoNote/Ben/latest/Packages.gz 2011-05-18 04:49 we need update this Packages.gz. then opkg can found the new packages. 2011-05-18 04:49 ah ok.  I forgot about that.  That's what opkg uses to decide which packages are available 2011-05-18 04:50 presumably we'd rather not edit Packages.gz by hand for fear of making a mistake that renders the whole thing unusable? 2011-05-18 04:50 better using "make package/index" 2011-05-18 04:51 and also the packages better release with the images. then it will have same uClibc, Gcc etc. for less problem :) 2011-05-18 04:52 that makes sense 2011-05-18 04:54 unclouded: for your problem with ../man3 you could use "UNPACK_CMD" in Makefile 2011-05-18 04:54 grep it in existing Makefiles, for exmaple 2011-05-18 04:55 PKG_UNPACK seems to work, too 2011-05-18 04:55 kyak: I saw your message about cronjob. will working on that after ~1 hours. I have to go offline for awhile, see you later. 2011-05-18 04:55 xiangfu: thanks :) 2011-05-18 04:55 kyak: thanks for feedback as always, (also the email) see you . 2011-05-18 04:56 xiangfu: always welcome! 2011-05-18 05:57 kyak: thanks for the tip.  I'll have a go at fixing the package later on 2011-05-18 07:17 [commit] Neil Stockbridge: The libsdl-doc-man Makefile is now more elegant http://qi-hw.com/p/openwrt-packages/62d7bcd 2011-05-18 07:32 [commit] Xiangfu Liu: nanonote-files: config.full_system: disable libxfce4util http://qi-hw.com/p/openwrt-packages/9b8498d 2011-05-18 07:32 [commit] Xiangfu Liu: stardict enalbe man page search http://qi-hw.com/p/openwrt-packages/c911cb2 2011-05-18 07:32 [commit] Xiangfu Liu: nanonote-files: config.full_system: disable libxfce4util http://qi-hw.com/p/openwrt-packages/cd2b5dc 2011-05-18 07:38 kyak: Hi what is the better way for 'jobs in sequence'? 2011-05-18 07:39 put while() in one script file ? 2011-05-18 07:40 xiangfu: something like that, yes :) 2011-05-18 07:40 kyak: buildhost get error on libxfce4util, I just disable. we don't need xfce in nanonote. 2011-05-18 07:40 yep, this xfce is in xfce feed, that should be disabled 2011-05-18 07:41 only leave qipackages, packages and desktop 2011-05-18 07:44 [commit] Xiangfu Liu: nanonote-files: feeds.conf: disable useless feeds http://qi-hw.com/p/openwrt-packages/2a5cc31 2011-05-18 07:45 [commit] Xiangfu Liu: nanonote-files: feeds.conf: disable useless feeds http://qi-hw.com/p/openwrt-packages/a4a100c 2011-05-18 07:51 kyak: http://fidelio.qi-hardware.com/~xiangfu/bin/compile-openwrt.sh 2011-05-18 07:52 kyak: after the current full_system build finish, I will start this "compile-openwrt.sh" :) 2011-05-18 07:54 xiangfu: yeah, i think it's simple but effective :) 2011-05-18 07:54 then you need to run this cronjob only once.. 2011-05-18 07:55 kyak: then I would like start it manually :) 2011-05-18 07:56 would it run well detached from terminal? 2011-05-18 07:56 also, you need to remember to run it after reboot :) 2011-05-18 07:57 i think a cron job on boot would be better 2011-05-18 07:58 oh. that make sense. 2011-05-18 08:00 can I get some space on http://downloads.qi-hardware.com/people/ to host some .ipk files before they make it in to the release? 2011-05-18 08:01 kyak: about "files/ directory in build script" 2011-05-18 08:01 kyak: I only can make sure. the the "files/" is at very last. 2011-05-18 08:02 kyak: the "define Package/nanonote-data-files/postinst" is for install new nanonte-data-files. for example. it can overwrite the files we want. 2011-05-18 08:02 xiangfu: i see.. i just don't have this files/ symlink in my build dir and didn't run into any issues yet 2011-05-18 08:03 kyak: but for the build progress.

I found 'opkg.conf' under target/xburst/base-files/ is overwrite by 'opkg' package. so I move it to 'files/' 2011-05-18 08:05 ok, so this is just the way for you to be double sure :) 2011-05-18 08:05 kyak: it's works fine before. 2011-05-18 08:06 ok, then i'll set up this symlink as well 2011-05-18 08:09 ping 2011-05-18 08:10 xiangfu: you are there :-) 2011-05-18 08:11 kyak: yes. for double sure. 2011-05-18 08:12 fidelio seems to play ping timeout on xiangfu all the time :) 2011-05-18 08:15 kyak: I will test your wiki code after buildhost finish the 'trunk' images.  thanks again. 2011-05-18 08:16 np - hope it works for you :) 2011-05-18 08:16 i already gave up and waiting for ben-wpan release 2011-05-18 09:45 kyak: what have you given up on ? 2011-05-18 09:47 wpwrak: he mean given up on SDW-823 wifi card. 2011-05-18 10:13 wpwrak: yeah, that one 2011-05-18 10:13 not working for me, whatever i try 2011-05-18 10:21 kyak: yeah, i've been following that story here on IRC. tragic, tragic ... 2011-05-18 11:42 if it isn't tuxbrain himself! 2011-05-18 11:42 tuxbrain: hi :) 2011-05-18 11:42 hi :) 2011-05-18 11:44 tuxbrain: can i order atben/usb soon? :) 2011-05-18 11:47 yes :) no definitive date yet, I claiming for it 2011-05-18 11:47 have you decided the price already? 2011-05-18 11:57 kyak I'm still calculating I will annouce once I make sure on the final date and costs 2011-05-18 11:58 ok, sure :) 2011-05-18 12:00 I'm still pending to do the test with wpwrak's prototypes ...
