15:44 < mtr> re
15:48 < rxr> hey mtr !
15:52 < mtr> hi rxr
16:00 < mtr> new linux-header does not contain asm/bitopts.h anymore
16:00 < rxr> which packages fails due that ?
16:00 < rxr> my reference looks pretty good
16:01 < mtr> ehmm ... vdr-bitstreamout
16:02 < rxr> likely the nearly only one failing
16:02 < rxr> that is I have no other match in the .err of the ref builder ...
16:02 < rxr> mtr: are you on the embedded world expo ?
16:04 < Stelz> hi rxr / mtr
16:05 < mtr> rxr: no, was there last year cause of certain project requirements, but no needs atm
16:06 < mtr> hi Stelz
16:06 < rxr> hi Stelz
16:06 < rxr> mtr: oh :-(
16:22 < CIA-21> rene * r22497 /trunk/package/develop/sparse/ (. sparse.cache sparse.conf sparse.desc): * added sparse (0.2) - A semantic parser of source files
17:30 < Demian> is there some kind of library to manage configuration fils dividen into sections? as smb.conf for example?
17:32 < rxr> most probably yes
17:33 < rxr> for perl I saw something like this already
17:33 < rxr> maybe use XML if you start something from scratch?
17:40 < LMJ> hi
17:41 < rxr> http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=de-de&q=parse+ini+file+in+C&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8
17:41 < rxr> ^- demian
17:41 < rxr> hi LMJ
17:43 < Demian> thanks rxr, i though to use a backend database, or xml file, and then dump back to the .ini file.
17:46 < rxr> you need to use a .ini file ?
17:47 < Demian> yes, mod_authz_svn access files
17:48 < rxr> ah
17:53 < d-marc> rxr: do you know if it is possible to change the bitdepth of the linux-fb device at runtime?
17:53 < d-marc> I am writing a Painter for linux-fb
17:54 < d-marc> FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO seems to have no effect
17:54 < rxr> yes, it is possible (if the device behind dev/fb supports it)
17:54 < d-marc> aha
17:54 < d-marc> seems mine doesnt
17:54 < rxr> do you use the vesa driver ?
17:54 < d-marc> probably, yes
17:54 < rxr> it does not support mode setting as it would need to call the bios in "real-mode"
17:54 < rxr> try another driver, such as the one specific to your graphic chipset
17:55 < rxr> or some embedded device FB :-)
17:55 < rxr> but many other FB driver support runtime switching, such as radeon, nvidia, ...
17:55 < rxr> the intel one not yet I think ...
17:56 < rxr> there also is some hacked up vesa driver that does mode setting
17:56 < rxr> vesafb-ng or so
17:56 < d-marc> ok, not important, the rest is working, just cant switch down to 640x480@8
17:56 < d-marc> ah ok
17:56 < rxr> I think it uses a user-space daemon that does either do bios emulation or vm86 mode real-mode call out ...
17:56 < d-marc> as long as its not my fault, thats fine ;)
17:57 < d-marc> thanks, rxr
17:58 < rxr> you'r welcome :-)

18:13 < CIA-21> rene * r22498 /trunk/package/x86/libsmbios/ (. libsmbios.cache libsmbios.conf libsmbios.desc): * added libsmbios (0.11.5) - A cross-platform library to access SMBIOS/DMI information
18:13 < CIA-21> rene * r22499 /trunk/package/powerpc/pbbuttonsd/ (pbbuttonsd.conf pbbuttonsd.desc): * updated pbbuttonsd (0.7.9 -> 0.8.0), marked x86, x86-64 now it supports Mactel machines
18:19 < CIA-21> rene * r22500 /trunk/package/powerpc/macosd/macosd.desc: * marked macosd x86, x86-64, likewise and improved the .desc Text tags
18:42 < d-marc> rxr: one more question, how can I get key events on the console? Is there a device file or something?

18:43 < rxr> d-marc: standard in ?
18:44 < rxr> d-marc: you can also place it into raw mode
18:44 < rxr> or open the dev/inputs directly
18:45 < d-marc> I need to feed key events into my event loop
18:45 < rxr> open non blocking or use select
18:46 < d-marc> ok
18:46 < d-marc> what do I get? the keycode or the character?
18:50 < rxr> normally the usual terminal emulation hickup
18:50 < rxr> such as those lovely ESC codes ...
18:50 < rxr> you can put into untranslated mode, might be more useful
18:50 < rxr> or later even open all the input event devices yourself in dev/input/ ...
18:51 < rxr> the kdrive xserver could be a good inspiration
18:51 < rxr> MIT license anyway :-) and quite compact

21:27 < d-marc> rxr: which device is it again to listen to keyboard events?
21:30 < mtr> d-marc: try /dev/input/eventX, google for evtest.c, this will give a brief example ;-)
21:30 < d-marc> ok, thanks again
21:31 < mtr> np
22:29 < d-marc> mtr: is it possible to listen to events on /dev/input/eventX without being root?
