| [00:00] | <JoeyBorn> | if you have a IM account, you should send that to gao as well |
| [00:00] | <JoeyBorn> | I'm sure he'll have questions for you and it'd be faster that way. |
| [00:00] | <JoeyBorn> | he's not normally on IRC |
| [00:00] | <caldo_de_cana> | ok, I'll send you and him another e-mail. |
| [00:02] | <JoeyBorn> | he has a breakdown of the tasks |
| [00:03] | <JoeyBorn> | framebuffer plugin |
| [00:03] | <caldo_de_cana> | ok... |
| [00:03] | <JoeyBorn> | audio I/O plugin support |
| [00:03] | <JoeyBorn> | FFMPEG porting and optimization |
| [00:04] | <JoeyBorn> | we're also looking to upgrade the kernel |
| [00:04] | <caldo_de_cana> | are you using MontaVista linux? |
| [00:04] | <JoeyBorn> | I don't know if you are familiar with the state of the davinci get tree, but a lot of things are broken |
| [00:04] | <JoeyBorn> | no, we're using 2.6.23 |
| [00:04] | <caldo_de_cana> | I decided not to use the git tree after some time |
| [00:04] | <caldo_de_cana> | oh, ok |
| [00:05] | <JoeyBorn> | what did you use? |
| [00:05] | <caldo_de_cana> | I used MontaVista linux. Provided in the DVEVM. |
| [00:05] | <JoeyBorn> | but as you probably no, a lot of things are not working on the get tree |
| [00:05] | <JoeyBorn> | but montavista was too old for us. |
| [00:05] | <JoeyBorn> | no SDHC support |
| [00:05] | <caldo_de_cana> | yes, there was lots of broken stuff |
| [00:06] | <caldo_de_cana> | I decided that last year. long time ago |
| [00:06] | <JoeyBorn> | well, you should talk to Gao about that too. |
| [00:06] | <JoeyBorn> | we need help with getting things fixed there. |
| [00:06] | <JoeyBorn> | USB hub support, wifi |
| [00:06] | <JoeyBorn> | etc. |
| [00:07] | <JoeyBorn> | there are lots of projects you could take on, I think. |
| [00:07] | <caldo_de_cana> | hmm... montavista is probably old, but it worked fine for our needs. |
| [00:07] | <caldo_de_cana> | but we only had 720x480 (or 720x576) max... |
| [00:07] | <JoeyBorn> | right, well, there's a marketing aspect to it too |
| [00:07] | <caldo_de_cana> | right... |
| [00:08] | <JoeyBorn> | we're an open source company with a community, we can't really put a product in the field with 2.6.10 |
| [00:08] | <JoeyBorn> | you know there's also the google summer of code project starting up in a couple month that's an option too. |
| [00:08] | <JoeyBorn> | you might want to suggest something for that. |
| [00:08] | <caldo_de_cana> | yeah, I'm applying for FFmpeg's SoC |
| [00:09] | <caldo_de_cana> | that'll take the other 20 hours a week I should have free =) |
| [00:09] | <JoeyBorn> | open.neurostechnology.com |
| [00:10] | <JoeyBorn> | well, soc won't start for a couple months IIRC |
| [00:10] | <JoeyBorn> | open.neurostechnology.com |
| [00:10] | <JoeyBorn> | is another contract opportunity with us |
| [00:10] | <JoeyBorn> | and there are more coming too, but you can talk about all that with Gao |
| [00:11] | <JoeyBorn> | but the hourly pay on our stuff will be higher than the SoC |
| [00:11] | <JoeyBorn> | at least that's the expectation |
| [00:11] | <caldo_de_cana> | nice... |
| [00:14] | <caldo_de_cana> | hmm... now I'm divided. I was the first person to finishg the qualification task for FFmpeg's SoC, but this looks very interesting |
| [00:15] | <JoeyBorn> | hey you get free gadgets with ours :) |
| [00:16] | <caldo_de_cana> | =) |
| [00:16] | <caldo_de_cana> | let's see how this week goes by... |
| [00:16] | <JoeyBorn> | ok, well, I'm off to bed, thanks for stopping by |
| [00:16] | <caldo_de_cana> | thanks for the job opening info |
| [00:17] | <caldo_de_cana> | I'll come by this # more often |
| [00:17] | <JoeyBorn> | the channel is most active usually starting about now, altough a couple folks are gone for the week so it's been a bit quiet |
| [00:17] | <caldo_de_cana> | bye. I'm going to bed too |
| [00:17] | <JoeyBorn> | talk to you later. |
| [04:18] | <gremlin[it]> | g'morning ! |
| [10:12] | <jkridner_> | funny (to me). I'm logged into the chat room, but I saw the bounties on the RSS feed first (and then refreshed my view here for confirmation). |
| [10:42] | <[g2]> | FYI: www.myka.tv |
| [18:53] | <mattl> | hey all, JoeBorn |
| [18:53] | <mattl> | FSF checking in.. |
| [20:45] | <mattl> | has anyone got python working on the OSD? |
| [20:53] | * MattJ shudders | |
| [20:54] | <mattl> | wejust rickrolled it. |
| [20:54] | <mattl> | now we're ready to hack on it. |
| [20:54] | <MattJ> | Python? on the OSD?? |
| [20:55] | <mattl> | well, we're used to writing little python apps, so getting python to work on the OSD first would be good. |
| [20:55] | * MattJ tries not to think about it | |
| [20:55] | <MattJ> | Port yourself to Lua, you won't regret it :) |
| [20:56] | <mattl> | hah. OSD is written in lua? |
| [20:56] | <MattJ> | No, but it has the Lua interpreter on-board |
| [20:56] | <mattl> | ah.. |
| [20:56] | <mattl> | compiling python can't be so hard then, surely? |
| [20:57] | <MattJ> | I should think it would be trivial |
| [20:57] | <MattJ> | But Python isn't famous for its low resource usage :) |
| [20:57] | <mattl> | true. |
| [20:58] | <mattl> | first step will be to port emacs lisp anyway. |
| [20:58] | <MattJ> | shootout.alioth.debian.org |
| [20:59] | <MattJ> | You need to port nano for me :) |
| [20:59] | <mattl> | we need something that's not vim. |
| [20:59] | <MattJ> | +1 |
| [20:59] | <mattl> | cause vim is what you use in prison. |
| [20:59] | <MattJ> | Yes :P |
| [20:59] | <MattJ> | I compiled nano, but I can't get it to work in BusyBox |
| [20:59] | <MattJ> | termcap business |
| [21:00] | <mattl> | well, we have 28 beers, and a bottle of scotch, plus vegan curry. we should be able to get something going, |
| [21:00] | <MattJ> | Had a tinker, and got nano to run without complaining, but the text of the file seemed to get written to random places on the screen |
| [21:00] | <mattl> | erk. |
| [21:01] | <MattJ> | crweb: Around? |
| [21:01] | <mattl> | johnsu01: wiki.neurostechnology.com |
| [21:01] | <MattJ> | Oops, it's technically saturday now :) |
| [21:01] | <MattJ> | Yes, I used scratchbox for nano |
| [21:02] | <mattl> | MattJ: where in the UK are you? |
| [21:02] | <MattJ> | Not far from Worcester |
| [21:02] | <mattl> | oh, neat. |
| [21:03] | <MattJ> | crweb: /mnt/tmpfs/media/osdroot $ lua -lqcop |
| [21:03] | <MattJ> | lua: error loading module 'qcop' from file './qcop.so': |
| [21:03] | <MattJ> | libQtGui.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory |
| [21:03] | <MattJ> | crweb: I built it with nqmake |
| [21:03] | <MattJ> | I hate dynamic linking sometimes :) |
| [21:03] | <MattJ> | *all the time |
| [21:04] | <MattJ> | I usually fight with the errors for 10 minutes then give up and link statically |
| [21:11] | <MattJ> | Umm |
| [21:11] | <MattJ> | I can't find a single Qt lib on the device... |
| [21:17] | <MattJ> | Aha |
| [21:23] | <MattJ> | crweb: FYI It seems I fixed it running: ldconfig -f /mnt/OSD/ld.so.conf -C /mnt/OSD/ld.so.cache |
| [22:09] | <johnsu01> | Is there any way to control the volume of the audio output? |
| [22:10] | <johnsu01> | I noticed that the xmms2 volume commands don't work |
