19:16 < Marach> hm. so i successfully installed rockbox on ipod touch 6g (120GB). when connecting to PC via USB, on windows it's as fast as with official fw (about 8MB/s) but on linux it takes very long time to copy anything, even the smallest files...
19:17 < Marach> i guess it's an OS problem and that isn't the best place to ask. or is it?
19:52 < user890104> first, by ipod touch i guess you mean ipod classic :)
19:52 < user890104> second, there's a module on linux which is likely to cause trouble, but removing it would also decrease the speed
19:53 < Marach> i wrote ipod touch?
19:53 < Marach> -_-
19:53 < Marach> lol, sorry
19:54 < Marach> and decrease the speed... EVEN MORE? that doesn't sound possible.
19:54 < user890104> you can try lsmod|grep ehci
19:54 < user890104> (i don't remember the exact name of the module)
19:55 < user890104> then removing it with rmmod, to see if the speed would change
19:55 < user890104> if it's worse or not working at all, you can re-insert it with insmod/modprobe
19:56 < Marach> okay. let's try
19:58 < Marach> (with the module) reading a 350MG file took about 20 seconds
19:58 < Marach> MB*
19:58 < Marach> now trying to copy it back to ipod into another directory. it's been 1 minute and so far the progress bar didn't even budg
19:59 < Marach> e
19:59 < Marach> shows 1 hour remaining...
20:02 < Marach> why would reading be fast but writing slow...
20:04 < Marach> without ehci_hcd all apps trying to access the mounted ipod freeze.
20:06 < user890104> replug the ipod
20:06 < Marach> i did.
20:06 < Marach> now it didn't freeze.
20:07 < Marach> read time of the same file - 7 minutes
20:08 < user890104> removing this module would make all devices fall back to usb 1.1
20:08 < user890104> which is even worse in your case
20:08 < Marach> yeah
20:08 < Marach> and write time is the same
20:08 < Marach> as in, speed so low it isn't even funny
20:09 < user890104> was it like that with the original firmware?
20:09 < Marach> nope
20:11 < user890104> well, that's more likely a rockbox issue, but since the port is still unsupported by rockbox, your option would be to wait for it to get fixed (or use windows)
20:13 < user890104> if you want to further investigate the issue, you could download the python tools and try to upload/download a file using them, before launching rockbox
20:13 < user890104> and btw, which emcore version are you using?
20:15 < Marach> boot screen says emCORE v0.2.2 r710M
20:16 < user890104> this seems to be some custom build, not the release one
20:16 < user890104> where did you get it from?
20:17 < Marach> yeah, i heard the rockbox version from freemyipod had trouble with usb transfer not working at all and i was recommended the version from there instead http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/topic,28562.0.html
20:17 < user890104> ah, this is the usbfixcandidate one
20:19 < Marach> should i try the "trunk" versions?
20:21 < user890104> i'm searching in the svn log to see if the usb fix is applied to trunk
20:22 < user890104> r720 seems to be it
20:22 < Marach> i don't even know if my ipod is affected by this. that's what i was adviced to install
20:22 < user890104> ok, let me upload the most recent build then so you can try it
20:22 < user890104> unless you want to build it yourself
20:23 < Marach> i'd have to switch to windows than linux and windows and linux again...
20:23 < Marach> since i'll have to backup my stuff before installing
20:23 < user890104> so you don't have emcore installed at the moment?
20:24 < Marach> ossible with this read sp- wait, it was *write* speed that was slow
20:24 < Marach> nevermind
20:24 < user890104> updating won't reformat your partition, only uninstalling
20:24 < user890104> but it's a good idea to have a backup of the whole hard drive, since the port is still experimental
20:25 < Marach> oh. i thought it follows the same instructions
20:26 < user890104> even if you follow them, the installer checks if there's emcore partition format on the hard drive, and if yes, it doesn't modify it
20:26 < user890104> ot only formats on the initial installation, or after restoring with itunes (which itself wipes the hdd), and reinstalling again
20:28 < user890104> i've just flashed r773 to my nano2g, so i assume that it would be safe to try this version on your ipod (by selecting UMSboot from the tools menu, then throwing the .ubi file from builds.freemyipod.org there, and unmounting/ejecting the ipod)
20:29 < user890104> but again, having a backup is highly recommended

20:35 < Marach> already grabbed the latest svn snapshot. what do i have to build?
20:48 < Marach> haha, stuck on "curl: (6) Could not resolve host: mirrors.kernel.org; Name or service not known"
20:49 < Marach> kernel.org being down is not an easily solvable problem
20:49 < Marach> i guess i'll settle with a prebuilt release.
20:54 < user890104> get the latest one, then install it using tools->umsboot
20:56 < Marach> mounting the 64MB partition... last time it took about 35 minutes
21:14 < user890104> Marach: there's a faster way, if you checkout the python tools and use them to upload the installer
21:14 < user890104> python emcore.py runfirmware 0x08000000 installer-*.ubi
21:15 < user890104> since you're on linux, python should be preinstalled in most cases
21:15 < Marach> i'll try next time... i don't want to risk wasting this time i waited so far
21:15 < user890104> you only need pyusb 1.x
21:16 < Marach> it was needed for installing UMSboot, wasn't it
21:17 < user890104> ah yeah
21:17 < user890104> if you used ipoddfu.py
21:24 < Marach> mounted...
21:24 < user890104> actually using emcore.py it would be even easier to do the same thing
21:25 < user890104> umsboot is made to not require the python stuff and drivers
21:27 < Marach> now i have emCORE 0.2.2 r708
21:27 < Marach> isn't that... older?
21:28 < user890104> uhm which one did you download?
21:29 < Marach> latest from http://www.freemyipod.org/wiki/EmCORE_Releases
21:29 < user890104> well, download this one: http://builds.freemyipod.org/emcore-installer/target/ipodclassic/emcore-installer-ipodclassic-r773.ubi
21:29 < user890104> it's svn head
21:30 < user890104> and use emcore.py to upload it with the command above
21:30 < user890104> to save you some waiting
21:32 < Marach> ERROR: No emCORE device found!
21:32 < user890104> uhm you need to be at the boot menu, or in emcore console
21:32 < user890104> not in umsboot
21:32 < Marach> i'm an idiot :|

21:33 < user890104> and there should be some device with ids ffff:e000 in lsusb
21:33 < Marach> yup, worked.
21:34 < user890104> ok, install this one and check the speed again
21:34 < user890104> you might want to update rockbox
21:35 < Marach> yeah, it won't boot. makes some strange purple pixels flash in the corner
21:35 < user890104> i'll send you a custom build which includes the patch that fixes this
21:36 < user890104> does the fallback image from the tools menu boot properly?
21:36 < Marach> yeah
21:36 < user890104> ok, you can use it in the meantime
21:36 < Marach> i still have the rockbox linked to form usbfix build
21:36 < Marach> from*
21:36 < user890104> i don't know if it includes the patch
21:36 < Marach> the latest official may work
21:37 < user890104> this patch is not applied to rockbox's svn (yet)

21:38 < Marach> i can overwrite .rockbox without deleting it, right?
21:38 < user890104> yeah
21:43 < Marach> it still does that http://files.freemyipod.org/releases/20110424/rockbox-ipodclassic-r29777-20110424.zip
21:45 < user890104> if you wait a bit more, i'll give you a link to the most recent rockbox build + the patch you need
21:46 < user890104> it's compiling at the moment
21:46 < Marach> okay, sure
21:47 < Marach> i'd probably manage to do it myself if rockboxdev.sh didn't fail at downloading files.
21:49 < user890104> if you are going to compile rockbox yourself, be sure to apply this patch: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/12233
21:54 < user890104> Marach: http://www.datafilehost.com/download-d5c33143.html
22:02 < Marach> done. let's see
22:06 < Marach> writing to ipod still takes ages...
22:09 < user890104> ok, try entering emcore console again
22:09 < user890104> then use emcore.py to upload files
22:09 < user890104> for ex. python emcore.py put somefile.mp3 /somefile.mp3
22:10 < user890104> or even better: time python emcore.py ....
22:12 < Marach> the slow speed is about 0.12 MB/s
22:12 < Marach> let's try the script
22:16 < Marach> huh, that was much faster
22:17 < Marach> 6.42 MB/s
22:21 < user890104> so it's a rockbox issue then
22:22 < user890104> you can use puttree to upload a folder with many files at once
22:24 < Marach> i guess it overwrites files with the same name?
