[7:03] -christel- [Global Notice] Hi all, Sorry for the services flapping, I think I have pinpointed the relevant module but not the actual crash (gdb with trace leaves me with 25K lines to look through!) -- to cause less disruptance I have unloaded the affected module, there will be no noticeable changes for end users, only staff usage of services. Apologies for the inconvenience and have a good day.

[10:17] <FIN__Master> good morning
[10:18] <FIN__Master> is it normal that the os gets screwed when shut down "hard"
[10:18] <FIN__Master> last night my tb was left on while not plugged in and in the morning it wont boot anymore
[10:24] <FIN__Master> could there be a "safe" shutdown that shuts down the os when the battery level is too low?
[10:27] <leinir> FIN__Master: the power management is being worked on... so the answer is "not yet" ;)
[10:28] <viridior> afternoon, anything going on?
[10:29] <FIN__Master> leinir: I know but I meant could there be a "just-in-case" thing that would monitor only the bottom-battery. It could be really bad if it only could save the os..
[10:29] * dirk2 (n=dirk@p5B040535.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) Quit (Remote closed the connection)
[10:30] <FIN__Master> leinir: So is there a way to make a script that would be always running and monitoring battery and could call shutdown now
[10:32] <leinir> possibly
[10:32] <leinir> but i don't know :)
[10:33] <FIN__Master> leinir: i know it may be possible. But cant do it myself :D
[10:34] <leinir> i already realise you're talking to me, you don't have to keep pinging me ;)
[10:34] <FIN__Master> sorry. Coded too much today so the Tab-finger if pretty sensitive :)
[10:35] <leinir> i might suggest looking into bash and how cron works
[10:35] <leinir> you don't want it running more than maybe every 15 minutes, so cron would be a good choice for that methinks

[12:29] <azaghal> How good is TouchBook with 3D, btw?
[12:30] <viridior> compared to what?
[12:31] <azaghal> Well, I was thinking if CrystalSpace engine would be runable on it.
[12:32] <viridior> thats pretty big, if it has opengl es 2.0 support it might be possible
[12:32] <viridior> i would be more worried about running out of RAM
[12:32] <azaghal> Ah, true, true.
[12:33] <viridior> even going to a lightweight WM like openbox, it would be a tight fit... and if opengl es 2.0 isn't support... doesn't look good
[12:34] * Vito89 (n=quassel@gw.loccal.net) has joined #touchbook
[12:34] <azaghal> I don't think CS is runable with so little RAM.
[12:35] <azaghal> The thing's a bit of a pig when it comes down to resources.
[12:35] <tommd> oink
[12:35] <azaghal> tommd: I'd say it's in the range of piggie flu :)
[12:35] <viridior> azaghal: this is on the OpenPandora which has just about the same hardware: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NL4VtAg_xzo
[12:36] <viridior> there some better ones showing Quake 2/3
[12:36] <viridior> those are with opengl es 2.0 support though
[12:37] <azaghal> Ogre3D might be tolerable.
[12:40] <viridior> azaghal: this might be more up your alley: http://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php?/topic/41692-horde3d-shader-based-engine-opengl-es-2-0-port/
[12:41] <viridior> only 5k lines of code, might not be as big a footprint as ogre3d
[12:41] <viridior> azaghal: then there is this... http://groups.google.com/group/beagleboard/browse_thread/thread/416792e2a7155c02

[12:50] <azaghal> Well, hopefully I could at least manage to run the server part on it :)
[12:58] <azaghal> I wonder why most arms come with only up to 256MB of RAM.
[13:00] <MikeEvans> I would guess that it is because RAM, especially fast RAM, is power hungry

[17:29] <Guest40139> Have my Touchbook now, but am having trouble getting wifi set up. Anyone around to help?
[17:30] <drantin> not sure, it just worked for me :/
[17:30] <drantin> both on a WPA/PSK network, and an unsecured one
[17:31] <Guest40139> I've done a couple things, and read the wiki, but it's not obvious what I'm doing wrong.
[17:31] <Guest40139> Did I mention I hate Wifi seetup? ;)
[17:33] <drantin> no, not yet
[17:34] <Guest40139> Okay, starting from scratch: Start->Control Panel->Networking
[17:35] <Guest40139> It says "Checking Available Wifi Connections. Please Wait..."
[17:36] <Guest40139> No results in list.
[17:37] <Guest40139> I believe there are several networks that should be reachable, but the one I want doesn't broadcast SSID.
[17:50] <Guest40139> Yes, verified on this netbook. Other local network active, but not found.
[18:13] <Guest40139> Um, how do I exit the crazy tanks game?
[18:15] <tommd> Guest40139: alt-f4
[18:15] <tommd> Its a known bug

[20:35] <Guest40139> Ok, would you be willing to assist with my wifi problem?
[20:35] <hyc> describe your problem and I'll decide then
[20:35] <Guest40139> I posted it earlier. Not sure whether it's a general problem or a specific one.
[20:36] <hyc> never ask for permission to ask a question, just ask the question...
[20:36] <hyc> I had to reset my IRC client
[20:37] <hyc> I guess I'll see if your question is on the log...
[20:37] <Guest40139> Ok.
[20:38] <hyc> ok, I see the log, but I don't see a clear statement of your problem
[20:38] <hyc> you went from wifi to crazytanks...
[20:38] <Guest40139> The question would be, should I expect my setup to work?
[20:38] <Guest40139> wifi setup
[20:38] <hyc> I always expect things to work...
