<0> yeah baby
<0> sigh...
<1> Anyone here know how netbsd was booting on the bebox? Did they flash the rom?
<1> or was a bootfloppy required?
<2> anyone know where source code for usb can be found? ;p
<3> ... the source code for USB?
<2> for accessing usb devices ;p
<3> ah
<1> MoodHugs: You may want to check the bsd and linux source
<1> and the actual specs
<2> i got a copy of the specs. do you happen to know where i'd get the bsd/linux source files?
<3> You mean the filenames, or where you would download the actual source?
<2> where i'd download the source
<3> kernel.org for linux
<3> There's a few BSDs to choose from... freebsd.org, openbsd.org, netbsd.org (in no particular order)
<2> okay thanks ;p



<2> lol i notice alot of requests for how to do it in newsgroups LOL ... one person reffered to a source code but it was a broken link, the rest just said to check out the specs ;p
<1> :o

<4> Has anybody else noticed that the AOL-data has very few queries with more than a few words / syllables? http://www.aolsearchdatabase.com/
<1> yeah
<5> re
<5> nice day today
<5> I post my PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse driver at http://pastebin.ca/126179
<6> there you go
<5> re
<7> hello
<8> aaa
<5> re
<5> anyone knows a OS developer job?
<9> Refilling the coffee machine.
<5> mhmmm coffee
<9> Sometimes I think I spend more time programming the cm than programming anything else. I should own a usb coffee-o-mat then I had a challenging task at least.
<10> eiwajiten
<7> hello
<10> hi
<7> i've some questions: there is a CONFIG_MICROCODE option on the linux kernel : "If you say Y here you will be able to update the microcode on Intel processors in the IA32 familly"
<7> i've read that only complex instructions were sent to the microcode, is it true ? does the microcode do dynamic and static branch prediction, or is it done only with logic circuits with transistors ?
<11> i havent a clue heh
<12> AFAIK Pentium 4 even translates _everything_ dynamically to internal RISC code
<12> while earlier pentiums had some instructions RISC-like hardwired and some microcode interpterted
<13> iojkl: most complex things are implemented in microcode
<13> which also can be seen on the latency on some operations
<14> iojkl: Branch prediction is not much more than a table with statistics, AFAIK. :-)
<7> undesktop, so the microcode has no effect on simple instructions ?
<12> iojkl: I don't exactly know, I'm no expert
<12> iojkl: but AFAIK: no, not with Pentium 3 and earlier
<7> okay
<7> thanks
<7> and how does it work to modify this microcode ? i/o port ? special instruction ?
<12> it's described in the Intel docs
<7> can i ask which one ? :P
<12> mhm, I'd guess volume 3
<7> the first one ?
<15> i've noticed that if I declare my own enable() function (to enable hw ints) as "static inline" the interrupts are not really enabled until a RET instruction.
<12> put in a memory clobber
<15> eh?
<12> elkse the compiler is free to put the function anywhere because it thinks it has no side effects (but I still wonder why the compiler would do that what you mention)
<12> or no, rather make the asm statement volatile
<12> (but it should be volatile if it has no outputs)
<12> cu
<15> no, there is already the __asm __volatile ("sti");
<10> mikaku
<10> are you in efnet
<10> iojlk, mikaku come to #cognitivity
<15> murrr: long time without enter in efnet
<10> aah ok
<10> r0nny you join too
<16> eh ?
<15> anyway
<10> trans
<10> ParadoxHeart, join #cognitivity for consultancy ;)
<17> I'm not on efnet. :-p
<10> gah
<10> cio
<10> cippo half of your ickname left :P
<18> damn, again?



<18> have to fix that..
<18> it get's bored quickly
<18> *gets
<7> Cippo, hey
<18> hello iojkl
<7> what's up ? :D
<18> damn, got blackpowder in my nose..
<18> not much
<7> blackpowder ? wtf is that ?
<11> iojkl: goes in ammo
<18> no, not really
<18> gonna make some fuses
<7> hu ?
<7> fuses ? weapon ? :D
<18> they dont use blackpowder for guns anymore, changed for nitroglycerol + nitrocellulose long time ago
<18> firework
<11> Cippo: yea, smokeless
<7> okay
<18> yep
<11> Cippo: i still use black powder for some things ;)
<7> it exploded ?
<11> but i also use tetryl for similar 'fun'
<18> nn: we all do :)
<18> tetryl? never tried it
<11> Cippo: ever seen a land mine?
<18> mm, not in real life no, on telly yes
<11> ahh.. i used to pull them out of the ground :)
<18> you've been an explosive guy in the military?
<11> Cippo: i did a bit of training in EOD, yes
<11> mainly because i'm an engineer and have to be able to deal with such things while out
<18> ah, cool, another dude i know on IRC is training for that now
<11> im about to become an MP i think
<18> MP?
<11> military police
<18> ah
<11> still up for debate
<18> ok, any cool being an MP?
<11> i dont know :)
<18> hehe, i bet it is, just sitting on your *** waiting for someone to try to take 18 instead of 20 pushups :P
<11> its nothing of that sort.. it's basicly a job as a police officer while on base
<18> ok, so you get to play a bit detective and ****?
<11> not really
<18> hm, ok
<10> it's guard :P
<10> with military rank hehe
<11> basicly
<10> and some dirty jobs :P
<10> MP stand on gate for 12 hours in rain while enemies may shoot him any time :P
<11> as if i wouldnt shoot back :P
<10> with the calming fact that if he screws up, the whole military base will be destroyed ;)
<11> and a little rain is nothing
<19> what 'enemies' ?
<10> and if not, the other soldiers will kill him :P
<11> anyone with a towel around his/her head
<7> nn, hu ? snatch ?
<11> its a joke
<11> my phone has a faster processor than my computer..
<7> oh :D
<18> nn: time to upgrade?
<11> Cippo: something like that.. my athlon suffered some strife.
<11> IE memory died
<11> so i found this compaq k6 3d 500mhz w/ 128mb ram outside on the curb for the dump
<11> and rescued it
<18> hehe :9
<18> *:)
<18> well, i got a 200 MHz running in the celler
<18> works like a charm
<11> this thing cant boot off it's 320gb harddrive.. so i have to boot off a rescue CD, chroot into my install, and use screen on the 1 VT i get hah
<18> lol!
<20> ahoy
<4> aye?
<11> yay
<0> yeah baby
<21> indeed
