_massi_ has joined #linux-sunxi
<ccaione>
mripard_: when handle_level_irq is finished you are still in the hard irq handler and the line PMIC->NMI irq line is still up since you haven't yet ack-ed the IRQs on PMIC (it will be done in the irq thread). So the ACK in handle_level_irq is useless. But I could be wrong :)

then your video will be behind your desktop -> invisible
<jemk>
except for colorkeying as it is done in the non-osd branch
<rellla>
i have no desktop, only startx-window ;)
<jemk>
well, the always existing standard layer, that is also used by x and fbcon and so on
<rellla>
ok. so where is the hierarchy defined? layer_info.pipe?
<rellla>
and why is video layer scaled and top layer normal?
<jemk>
hierarchy: order of CMD_LAYER_TOP calls, pipe is the thing that limits the number of blendable layers, there are only 2 pipes
<rellla>
so last CMD_LAYER_TOP IS on top.
<jemk>
the video layer is scaled because you want to scale you video ;) and the output layer can't be scaled in vdpau, so no need to reserve a scaler for that
<jemk>
yes, it should be
<rellla>
and last question, i still haven't got what the mystery is behind colorkey. a basic graphics noob question *duck*
<jemk>
the colorkey allows to show the video in an partly overlapped window. the video is only shown where the layer below has the correct color(key)
<jemk>
and only your video window has this color
<jemk>
there maybe too, but i don't know if this function is ever used, pkendall added this
<jemk>
ah, wrong, other way around
<jemk>
that's correct there, it isn't used for blit, only for fill
<rellla>
are the G2D_CMD somewhere documented?

hm, no i guess... ;)

my kitty decided to piss over it
<oliv3r>
and it seeped inside to the inverter board of the monitor
<oliv3r>
of course i didn't know where it all ended up, so i took it apart, every single part
<oliv3r>
luckly IBM (t42 this is) has amazing repair manuals
<oliv3r>
so i took it appart, cleaned it all; 'laptop' bit was fine
<oliv3r>
but inverter board was mutilated; it didn't properly light up anymore etc
<libv>
:(
<oliv3r>
so i cleaned that and ...
<oliv3r>
it works again
<oliv3r>
took some heavy cleaning though
<oliv3r>
except for the indicator leds; they are ont he sam pcb
<libv>
not a good time for something like that :(

i'm still exstatic about my t42; i got a new (old) hp laptop from work; while the core2duo is amazingly faster then the pentium-m i have; the t42 is just a much better laptop
<Turl>
dripping the excess and letting it dry and it was good to go, other than the keyboard
<oliv3r>
even the screen, that's 10 years old; is much much better then what's on this new one
<Turl>
had to disassemble it and clean it with alcohol, there was liquid trapped inside
<Turl>
oliv3r: what res?
<oliv3r>
i read about some lenovo keyboard, that there's a 'drain' for the liquid to drip out of
<oliv3r>
15" 1440x1050
<oliv3r>
wheras the new one is 15" 1280x800
<Turl>
oliv3r: this keyboard was contained like in a metal shield
<Turl>
and the kbrd itself had some sealing plastic
<oliv3r>
or something ghey like that; also, it's a really crappy angle tft; wheras the t42 has like 175 degree's
<Turl>
it's a chickletish keyboard
<Turl>
1280x800? is that 4:3?
<oliv3r>
possbily

oliv3r: I think my next purchase will be primarily guided by battery availability
<oliv3r>
why?
<Turl>
because finding batteries for a 4yo model is a pain :\
<Turl>
(I mean decent ones that'll last more than a week and will not explode)
<oliv3r>
i'm on my 3rd battery
<oliv3r>
3 1/2
<Turl>
I'm on my original one, lasts like 10-15m
<Turl>
can't find a decent one yet
<oliv3r>
i had the original one for ages; i bought a 'cdslot' one (rthe 1/2) early
<oliv3r>
when the original battery was 'done for' i got a cheap china one
<oliv3r>
worked ok; but after 3 years; that one was gone too
<oliv3r>
then i got the china battery from a schoolmate (all year had same laptop)
<oliv3r>
and it had a firmware bug
<oliv3r>
which made the battery last till now (still 60%)
<oliv3r>
the firmware bug is hard to explain
<oliv3r>
the 'volume' guage, would actually run down and not charge the battery
<oliv3r>
so the led would blink 'empty battery'
<oliv3r>
software 'knew' the charge though
<oliv3r>
but because it wasn't constantly being charged to full, it would deplete normally slowly
<oliv3r>
to charge it, reseat the battery
<oliv3r>
annoying, but made it last enormously long
<oliv3r>
i also bought the 9 cell 'extended charge' battery 8 years or so ago; still at 80%
<oliv3r>
but yeah, telling your laptop NOT to constantly charge, or removing the battery (with 40% charge in it) is the best way to keep a battery good
<oliv3r>
well to be fair; acer is the biggest pile of crap
<oliv3r>
so i'm not supprised your having a hard time finding a replacement one :)
<oliv3r>
but IBM is no more
<oliv3r>
which makes me sad
<Turl>
oliv3r: I never had any trouble with acer (and that's like out of 6 or so machines made by them)
<Turl>
but as you can see, finding spares is a pain :)
<oliv3r>
acer is like the toilet C-brand here
<oliv3r>
you got cheap dells or cheap HP's which are shit too, but HP's tend to be realyl good
<oliv3r>
high-end dell's are good
<oliv3r>
though i'm no fan of dell
<oliv3r>
i love IBM's

what parts do you need? I have a couple parts ones sitting here. I buy them in bulk, repair them and refurb.

Reason I like thee thinkpads is they are very cheap, reliable, and they didnt ditch the parallel port which I actually use quite often.

<oliv3r>
just a black blob; but that's an insignificant minor detail
<brain_>
The impurities in the water, distilled or not are going to cause shorts down the line at some point. acetone displaces ALL traces of liquid and impurities like iron,zinc, etc that cause the shorts that happen later. the initial cleaning with alcohol is usually only a temporary solution. Acetone also tries dries up all the liquid and highlights any problems areas for further cleaning. I know I have some housings with bluetooth, I will
<brain_>
check out if I have any inverters. I should have one here.
<oliv3r>
brain_: but yeah i love the t42; dedicated graphics, dedicate ram; 2gb's upgraded, 2.1ghz is still really fast; ssd makes it really fast
<brain_>
never fight water damage with more water, and if you use alcohol be sure it dont contain water as most does.
<oliv3r>
it IS a fast laptop
<brain_>
by water i meant liquid
<oliv3r>
brain_: well distilled water is fine, won't rust, disolves nicely and doesn't stick
<oliv3r>
and i have 80% alcohol; probably has water in it
<oliv3r>
distilled i guess
<brain_>
as long as its working, I will look through my pile and see if I have any inverters. might not be able to get into the bin until later tonight. I will let you know what I find. the cover i know i have as I never replace them.
<oliv3r>

<oliv3r>
i mean, aren't they like obsolete
<oliv3r>
oh wow see lots on ebay, cheapest 1 USD
<oliv3r>
for 2!
<brain_>
I get them in lots on ebay, say 15-20 a time and the initial investment is back just by making a few working units. I check the descriptioons carefully and try to stick to hardware issues. I very rarely get a cracked screen but some people will describe bad lcd's alot i;ve noticed...its usually the GPU that failed when I inspect them...yep they are CHEAP and reliable and perfect for someone with no laptop.
<oliv3r>
so how do you make a profit on this? re-sell them on ebay?

and how doy ou buy that many lol; i only see single sales
