[16:27:58] <Tom_itx> where is the actual pc for the buildbot located?
[16:30:48] <archivist> buildbot can use slaves all over the place
[16:31:18] <Tom_itx> sorta like torrent?
[16:32:06] <archivist> more master slave the master sends new code and kicks off a build and slave sends back status
[16:32:40] <archivist> my cnc used to be a slave for mariadb even while machining
[16:34:17] <Tom_itx> limited to a particular project or can any buildbot access it?
[16:35:39] <archivist> you setup usernames passwords so no funny business
[16:36:06] <Tom_itx> then when it sees your pc being online it can access it?
[16:36:39] <archivist> they talk to each other, yes
[16:37:50] <archivist> can be a burden to the slave if the master sets the build to be as fast as possible
[16:38:38] <Tom_itx> my server's online all the time and gets little use...
[16:38:52] <Tom_itx> not a fast pc by any means though
[16:39:01] <Tom_itx> some old free clunker
[16:40:18] <archivist> if the number of parallel processes is set high the slave ends up cpu bound and a bit too slow for other use

[20:47:42] <memleak> where can i send patches for linuxcnc?
[20:48:15] <seb_kuzminsky> emc-developers is the best place
[20:49:11] <memleak> ok i have fixes for tcl/tk 8.6 and bwidget when using those versions (configure.ac adjustments) also i'm going to add that stack boundary fix for 64-bit as a patch after testing and successful.
[20:49:39] <memleak> configure.in i mean.. that's depreciated btw
[20:49:40] <seb_kuzminsky> have you read the 'Contributing to LinuxCNC' document? it's got some best practices type info
[20:50:00] <memleak> I have a lot of experience with autotools, I can rebootstrap the tree..
[20:50:36] <seb_kuzminsky> i'm sorry to hear that, you have my condolences

[20:51:10] <memleak> i can update it?
[20:51:37] <seb_kuzminsky> the current buildsystem is old on purpose - it's the last version of autotools that doesn't use recursive make
[20:52:17] <memleak> what's so bad about recursive make? i use it all the time.
[20:53:30] <seb_kuzminsky> http://miller.emu.id.au/pmiller/books/rmch/
[20:54:35] <memleak> sometimes when all you do is change one file, it's best to run make clean anyway..
[20:54:49] <seb_kuzminsky> not if your build system has proper dependency tracking
[20:55:01] <memleak> but if it doesn't ;)
[20:55:05] <seb_kuzminsky> running 'make clean' is nearly an admission of defeat ;-)
[20:55:22] <memleak> -_-
[20:55:32] <memleak> alright i'll leave it alone..
[21:00:42] <seb_kuzminsky> if we're going to change the build system, i'd propose looking at scons or cmake, over a newer version of autotools

[21:06:58] <memleak> i like autotools so i'm not going to be the one to do that
[21:07:20] <cradek> if we change the build system, we would probably have to backport the make-replacement to several old platforms. it would have to be for a very good reason.
[21:07:29] <memleak> i have experience with cmake but i prefer everything old-school.

[21:12:17] <memleak> old platforms? what do you mean?
[21:12:33] <cradek> ubuntu 8 and 10
[21:13:00] <memleak> does 8.04 even receive updates anymore>
[21:13:07] <cradek> surely not
[21:13:15] <memleak> so why bother?
[21:13:22] <cradek> because users
[21:15:09] <memleak> ah, wasn't aware people still used that
[21:16:17] NickParker|2 is now known as NickParker
[21:17:43] <memleak> i'm starting on that linuxcnc live cd right now
[21:18:41] <memleak> gentoo x86, i686 tuned for MMX SSE SSE2, latest 3.4 kernel release with RTAI, git v2.5_branch ok? objections, suggestions?
[21:20:25] <seb_kuzminsky> sounds good to me
[21:21:00] <memleak> sweetness
[21:21:11] <seb_kuzminsky> historically all our live cds have been a way to easily install linuxcnc, and what you describe seems like it would continue that tradition
[21:21:30] <cradek> does a gentoo cd have live boot?
[21:21:50] <memleak> you mean with a graphical desktop?
[21:21:55] <cradek> yeah
[21:21:59] <seb_kuzminsky> i'm a bit leery because i dont think many people run linuxcnc on gentoo, and i dont know anything about packaging linuxcnc for gentoo, so i think all support questions will have to go to you
[21:22:12] <cradek> try it out before you commit to installing is a nice thing we've had since 2006
[21:22:24] <memleak> no but with gentoo you can make it do anything.
[21:22:35] <memleak> so i can make a graphical desktop pop right up
[21:22:43] <memleak> which is what i'm planning on of course
[21:22:57] <cradek> ok interesting (I know nothing about gentoo)
[21:23:17] <memleak> doesn't serve people much good if it requires building stuff
[21:23:43] <memleak> ah now making it install to the hard drive... heh i didn't think about that part
[21:23:46] <cradek> the feature I'm talking about is where the user boots from cd and sees the desktop and can run linuxcnc, exactly like after it's installed, except slower
[21:24:10] <memleak> cradek, it will do that, yes.
[21:24:12] <cradek> having that has been a huge benefit
[21:24:13] <cradek> cool
[21:24:45] <memleak> should all firmware be included? because thats the part thats a big mess.
[21:24:53] <memleak> all the mesa firmware i mean
[21:24:58] <seb_kuzminsky> you mean all the hm2 firmwares? yes, include them
[21:25:06] <memleak> eek. ok
[21:25:25] <memleak> might need help with that when i get to that point
[21:25:37] <seb_kuzminsky> heh, "expect rough edges", linuxcnc has been a dpkg affair since before my time, you're breaking new ground here
[21:25:52] <memleak> i understand that
[21:25:57] -!- chillly has quit [Ping timeout: 268 seconds]
[21:26:03] <memleak> hardest part for me is /lib/firmware at this point
[21:26:08] -!- zoni1983 has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
[21:26:20] <memleak> second hardest is making the linuxcnc app show up in menu because make install prefix=/usr doesn't cut it
[21:26:29] -!- md-2 has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
[21:26:44] <memleak> i wonder if there are docs on modifying a menu to make a custom app show up
[21:26:51] <memleak> that would be handy.
[21:26:56] <cradek> I only know the debian answer to that
[21:27:25] <memleak> shoot :)
[21:27:44] <cradek> you add a description file to the right place, and it shows up on the menus for all the desktop environments
[21:28:05] <memleak> "right place" in debian whats the location?
[21:28:12] <memleak> somewhere in /usr/share ?
[21:28:35] <cradek> umm we install /etc/xdg/menus/applications-merged/cnc.menu
[21:28:53] <memleak> ok thanks!
[21:29:35] <cradek> and files like /usr/share/applications/linuxcnc.desktop - one for each entry on the menu
[21:29:53] <memleak> perfect perfect
[21:29:58] <memleak> that'll give me an idea
[21:30:10] <memleak> did you ever make a live cd?
[21:30:10] <cradek> see [sourcetree]/debian/extras
[21:30:20] <memleak> for linuxcnc i mean
[21:30:28] <cradek> yeah once or twice it fell to me
[21:31:15] <cradek> I've remastered/updated others' work too
[21:31:22] -!- MrHindsight [MrHindsight!~2020@unaffiliated/capthindsight] has joined #linuxcnc-devel
[21:32:00] <memleak> as for the installer, how bad of an idea is this: tarball of the live cd being decompressed to a hard drive?
[21:32:34] <cradek> wait you have to write the part that installs to disk!?
[21:32:37] <seb_kuzminsky> surely gentoo has an "install from live cd" app already
[21:32:56] <memleak> an interactive command line installer that asks questions (what partition do you want it installed to? (i.e. /dev/sda) and questions like is ext4 ok?")
[21:33:01] <memleak> etc
[21:33:14] <memleak> and no it was depreciated in 2009 or so
[21:33:20] <memleak> i doubt it works at all anymore rofl
[21:33:30] <cradek> heh yggdrasil did exactly that in 1993
[21:33:43] <memleak> WOW!
[21:33:46] <seb_kuzminsky> that was before you were born, right memleak? :-P
[21:33:52] <memleak> actually same year!
[21:33:55] <seb_kuzminsky> heh
[21:34:24] <cradek> the installer was a bash script: it said NOW RUN FDISK AND DO PARTITIONS: etc.
[21:34:33] <memleak> and did it work?
[21:34:41] <memleak> were people ok with it?
[21:34:50] <cradek> it was 1993. those questions hardly make sense.
[21:34:50] <seb_kuzminsky> we had low exectations back then
[21:35:15] <memleak> well.. if thats too low a ball i could base the installer off of slackware's ncurses interface installer...
[21:35:28] <memleak> instead of it being purely bash
[21:35:45] <cradek> http://timeguy.com/cradek-files/01188356148/yggdrasil-beta.jpg
[21:36:21] <cradek> bbl.
[21:36:28] <memleak> twm.. yuck
[21:36:44] <memleak> back before linux had whistles
[21:36:59] <memleak> just a little bell..
[21:37:06] <cradek> dude, shaped windows
[21:37:28] <cradek> bbl.
[21:37:31] <cradek> really.
[21:37:32] <memleak> see ya!
[21:37:45] <memleak> seb_kuzminsky, for the installer what do you suggest?
[21:38:24] <memleak> anything involving mouse, keyboard, graphics icons etc i never did that before and for a utility that formats your hard drive, doesnt sound like a good place to start
[21:38:49] <memleak> i can do anything with a mix of ncurses python bash and lua though
[21:39:52] <memleak> i dont feel like learning Qt just to make a disk although surely i could given time
[21:40:09] <memleak> is Qt difficult btw?
[21:41:46] <memleak> i could also look at the source for anaconda or something and try and port something like that over to gentoo i suppose but that could take a long while.
[21:42:07] <memleak> just hit me up with ideas while i'm making the filesystem.
[21:42:15] <memleak> i'm in crunch time mode :)

[21:54:05] <memleak> well i'm trying to be the first to break free of debian / ubuntu too
[21:54:45] <memleak> basically what im asking is if an automated / interactive command line installer is too flimsy, should it have to be graphical?
[21:55:05] <seb_kuzminsky> i'll be interested to see what you discover there, but i'm afraid i dont have any advise for you, sorry :-/
[21:55:22] <seb_kuzminsky> graphical or curses is fine with me personally
[21:55:43] <memleak> ok!
[21:55:57] <memleak> i love ncurses :)
[21:56:26] <seb_kuzminsky> the live cd historically has intended to help folks who are not super computer savvy, so bug free, simple, pretty & helpful are important qualities
[21:56:34] <memleak> slackware still uses that same installer they did in the early 90s
[21:56:41] <seb_kuzminsky> cool
[21:56:45] <seb_kuzminsky> bbl, good luck!
