(15:06:18) soul9: aww (15:06:22) soul9: well, yeah, it works (15:06:58) soul9: but i can't resize the window over a specific X (15:07:03) paigeadele [i=erratic@75.146.55.252] entered the room. (15:07:05) soul9: oh he quit :-( (15:14:17) uriel: soul9: that is because you are using the old dis (15:14:28) uriel: you need acme-sac's emu (15:14:33) uriel: (s/dis/emu/ sorry) (15:16:44) C-Keen: true! (15:17:08) soul9: yeah (15:17:12) soul9: no, resize works (15:17:57) soul9: but not to bigger size than a specific x coordinate (i've got two 1680x1050 screens) (15:25:01) KillerX left the room (quit: ). (15:42:43) paigeadele left the room (quit: Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)). (15:46:13) KillerX [n=anant@gentoo/developer/KillerX] entered the room. (15:52:11) C-Keen: this is also a limitation of a vita nuova inferno emu IIRC (15:56:46) soul9: so you say i'm still using the octopus emu instead of the acme-sac one? (15:58:16) C-Keen: maybe (16:00:54) hotaru2k3 left the room (quit: "ChatZilla 0.9.84 [Firefox 3.1b1/20081007144708]"). (16:23:29) uriel: soul9: oh, I have seen acme-sac act messed up in multi-screen setups (16:23:49) uriel: soul9: there might be some bug repports about it (or you should fill one if there isn't) (16:24:38) uriel: (maximizing also acts weird, and yea, resizing is all fucked) (16:25:46) soul9: yeah, there already is a bug about resizing tho (16:25:55) soul9: and it's about reimplementing the whole thing (16:25:57) soul9: so.. (16:37:29) KillerX left the room (quit: ). (16:39:14) underspecified [n=eric@softbank220043052011.bbtec.net] entered the room.

(19:40:02) mjl-: gualteri: impressive device (19:40:14) mjl-: does the usb interface mean the inferno-ds kernel needs usb support? (19:41:00) gualteri: mjl- hehehe, the question is you want one? (19:41:12) gualteri: no there's no need for usb support in the inferno-ds (19:41:22) mjl-: true (19:41:36) mjl-: 79 usd is probably not too expensive for it (19:41:53) mjl-: the serial is probably more interesting (19:41:54) gualteri: i wanted a new toy for xmas so i can play (19:42:00) gualteri: well (19:42:04) mjl-: :) (19:42:07) mjl-: and the sd (19:42:10) gualteri: the best is to read the code (19:42:41) gualteri: it has a 8051 chip, so with that plugged the ds becomes a real SMP with 3 cores ;-P (19:43:20) gualteri: you write the PIC's code for the 8051, so it depends on what you expose from the 8051 to the DS (19:43:56) gualteri: http://natrium42.com/wiki/DSerial_Edge (19:45:17) gualteri: i've seen how the servos's gpios, serial lines and ADC are interfaced and it doesn't seem quite complicated (19:47:36) gualteri: in any case PIC are easy, and more when they're so nicely packaged (19:48:17) KillerX left the room (quit: ). (19:53:38) gualteri: if i was looking for people interested to work in parallel (19:53:43) gualteri: s/if / (19:58:56) gualteri: here's the datasheet: https://www.silabs.com/pages/DownloadDoc.aspx?FILEURL=Support%20Documents/TechnicalDocs/C8051F34x.pdf, iirc the USB is exposed from the 8051 to the DS through the SPI bus
