Hijack v233: The Pooh-Bah Release

Hijack v233: The Pooh-Bah Release - 07/03/2002 11:15

Hijack v233 is now out:
  • timeout for "unmaskirq:1" changed from 3 to 6 seconds in IDE driver
  • more tweaking of the reboot mechanism
  • added a new block device /proc/empeg_bootlogos for eventual use by JEmplode for flashing boot logos over the network.

    Note: you cannot simply write a new logo by FTPing over top of that "file" (well, you can, but you really have to know what you're doing). The first four bytes are the Rio/Empeg selector code, followed by a 2048 byte AC logo, and then a 2048 byte DC logo, followed by lots of leftover(?) space. And oh yeah, completely untested. Mike, are you listening?

    As usual, enjoy!

    Holy crap you *are* a Pooh-Bah! Amazing! I've been posting since mid 1999 and I just hit Pooh-Bah a couple days ago... Looks like you're going to blow past me any minute... Oh well.

    What's next, Carpal Tunnel?

    Cool. I hope I get around to doing FTP directly from Gimp-empeg.

    Ah.. yes, that makes at least three apps that could use this feature.. I guess it'll stay in there, then.

    Cheers

    >Holy crap you *are* a Pooh-Bah!

    Well, I just applied FAQMaster's technique for a few days.. basically always replying to get the last word in (like this).

    Cheers

    I don't think you've been told this enough times: "You Rock!"

    This was a public service announcment from those of us who own Empegs, but have not made that statment yet.

    Mark, you've jumped by about 300 posts in the past week and a bit. Damn. Of course no one (and I do mean NO ONE) will catch Tony (any time soon). I've done some calculations, and though it's possible, I don't think it can be done within 2 years without engineering a skin replacement for your fingertips.

    No-one would stoop so low as that, would they?

    I've changed this topic to "The Pooh Bah Thread"

    I figure if we just keep replying to each other, we'll all be "Pooh Bar" status by ~2005

    Hmm, that bumps my web based .raw generator up a few notches on the priority chain. I'll look at implementing this on RioCar.org this weekend.

    Plus that also enables boot scripts to change it, very cool.

    Is that supposed to be the final word (character)?

    That is correct.

    Cool. Note that boot scripts will change it for the NEXT boot. Still very nifty, though!

    And I thought I was being a post whore lately! Oh course, all I really do is ask questions!

    I don't know if anyone caught that I changed my pic once I became an "old hand".
