DocScrutinizer05freemangordon: R/2R network on parallel port? how uninspired. I loved the 1bit DAC with like 16fold oversampling directly to the PC beeper more intriguing00:55
DocScrutinizer05true speech from a single TTL-level output00:55
freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: naah, that was too noisy, 8bit DAC was way better :)00:57
DocScrutinizer05nowadays those 1bit DAC are considered the most linear and accurate thing you can find in top notch CD players00:57
freemangordonI know00:58
DocScrutinizer05admittedly with 128 or 1024fold oversampling00:59
freemangordoniirc the problem was that 8088 was not fast enough to output enough samples per second for good sound01:01
freemangordonusing speaker IO prots that is01:02
freemangordon*port01:02
DocScrutinizer05yep, particularly since that port been (and still is?) hooked up via some weird console ioctrl01:03
DocScrutinizer05iirc01:04
freemangordonwell, the code was written in ASM (I am talking about DOS days), but still CPU was too slow for anything but a robotic voice01:05
DocScrutinizer05according to wikipedia you'd need 2^(16*2)-fold oversampling for a 16bit accuracy of a 1bit DAC01:05
freemangordonwhile with 8bit DAC on PP it was giving an acceptable quality01:06
DocScrutinizer05:nod:01:06
DocScrutinizer05just kidding basically01:06
freemangordonyeah01:07
DocScrutinizer05but tbh I'd not use a R/2R but a logarithmic network01:07
freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: actually that's what we used, now I remember01:08
DocScrutinizer05you can achieve 16bit quality witha 12bit-log DAC01:08
freemangordon9 resistors01:08
freemangordon1 with constant resistance and 8 with variable01:09
DocScrutinizer05of course you should encode your samples accordingly then01:09
freemangordonDocScrutinizer05: well, I had written a test program counting from 0 to 255 on PP, so nearly linear DAC was achievable by fine-tuning varable resistors01:10
freemangordon*variable01:11
freemangordonhowever, I need some sleep01:12
freemangordonnight01:12
* DocScrutinizer05 just woke up, finding his fridge as empty as the last 4 days :-/01:13
* DocScrutinizer05 wonders if flu not vanishing is the cause or maybe also the result of this01:13
DocScrutinizer05increeeedible, a useful SPAM to council ML01:17
merlin1991huh?01:27
DocScrutinizer05council@maemo.org got a unsolicited mail from koon-hongkong - about *phones*01:29
DocScrutinizer05emergency phones though01:30
DocScrutinizer05like for elevators, highway etc01:30
DocScrutinizer05koontech.com01:32
DocScrutinizer05respect for their spamming department01:33

chem|stfreemangordon: still not able to build modest11:42
chem|stafter 14th I may have some time, from the stable user point of view there is no "big" reason to hurry, most want the nifty features not included11:43
chem|stit was frustrating burning 3 evenings with trying to find out how modest might build11:46
chem|stespecially after I had it built and was told that it was the wrong version... oh no it was the right one... does not build anymore11:47
chem|stI am going to show my sister how to build stuff for fremantle next week, if anyone got a hand with this modest crap it would be much appretiated11:49

freemangordonchem|st: I can build modest for you. and AFAIk there is a really wanted feature to be included in CSSU-S - libcurl3, it fixes a couple of things broken by IPv618:56

merlin1991luf: ping22:35
lufmerlin1991: pong22:35
merlin1991what's your avaiablility on the 13th (thursday)?22:35
lufNo plans for that night ;)22:36
merlin1991then now you've got plans :D22:37
lufI see :)22:37
freemangordonmerlin1991: confirming that systemui no longer leaks, it sits steady on 1620k, 22 hours uptime22:54
freemangordonwill continue to check though22:54
merlin1991that's good news :)22:55
freemangordonyeah :). I was thinking... is it a good idea to reverse systemui itself and to make it .launch, that could save some memory. not sure how it will behave in act_dead though22:56
freemangordonnot now of cource :D. but in a month or so, when I am no more disgusted with it ;)22:58

luffreemangorfon: what is libconbtui0-hid?23:01
freemangordonluf: hehe23:02
freemangordonplugin to connect to HID devices from BT UI23:03
freemangordonluf: why you ask?23:03
lufBecause it has no description ;)23:04
lufAnd see maemo channel ...23:04
freemangordonwell, blame the author :D:D:D23:04
lufSure but I don't know that guy with strange name :D23:04

merlin1991tadzik: they are in cssu-devel and he always is happy about testers ;)23:42
tadzikso, just add cssu-devel and install risky stuff? :)23:43
tadzik(and report bugs)23:43
merlin1991of course :D23:44
tadzikbtw, do you know by a chance how do I get qmake inside scratchbox?23:44
