@EasterlyIrk ?

Downgoat

can you see if disp.c and disp.h compile?

Easterly Irk

okai

bootloader.asm:16: error: comma, colon, decorator or end of line expected after operand

@Downgoat ^

Downgoat

oh okay

huh

Easterly Irk

moving the comment didn't help.

Mars Ultor

@EasterlyIrk what does the line have?

Downgoat

17:06

what's your display resolution?

Easterly Irk

@MarsUltor mov ax 07C0h ; 0x07C0h is where our bootloader starts

Mars Ultor

Hmm

Easterly Irk

@Downgoat v

2880 x 1800

Downgoat

ok

Mars Ultor

mov ax, 07C0h?

Downgoat

17:08

strawpoll.me/7124288

@MarsUltor yeah, that's not a valid hex thing

Easterly Irk

oh

Mars Ultor

@Downgoat why not?

Downgoat

nvim isn't highlighting it correctly

Easterly Irk

I think cap C and lower h might fail?

> vim

YOu are actually using vim for this?

Downgoat

yes

it is very good

Easterly Irk

17:10

coooooool

Downgoat

I can view lots of files at once

I'm gonna start off making jQuery OS in 1920x1080

though you'll be able to change it in kernel.h

Easterly Irk

oaky

Mars Ultor

Wait, why ax, not eax?

Downgoat

difference?

I'm not an asm person

Mars Ultor

@Downgoat remember to #define them

Downgoat

17:14

yeah

Mars Ultor

@Downgoat me neither, but eax is 32-bit, ax is 16-bit

cs.virginia.edu/~evans/cs216/guides/x86.html

Downgoat

oh

D:

what is 64-bit then

Mars Ultor

rax

But idk

Downgoat

should we use 64-bit then?

we sohuld probably write it in c and then compile

Easterly Irk

Which is better?

Mars Ultor

17:18

Maybe it's ax because the address is only 16 bits

Easterly Irk

I say default to 64-bit, because that is what mac uses.

Windows can use both.

Mars Ultor

Same s linux

But maybe an ifdef plus a define in asm?

Downgoat

@MarsUltor do you know asm

Mars Ultor

no

And it's hard to do stuff on a phone

Downgoat

oh

Mars Ultor

17:22

But

Wait a sec

Downgoat

I don't really know how to make a bootloader...

Mars Ultor

Can't really do it at all oh a phone

But read osdev's getting started

Also

Eax is lower/last 32 bits if a system is 64-bit, ax is last 16, al is last 8, ah is last 8 after al

Downgoat

ok

Mars Ultor

Also, apparently avoid 8/16 bit instructions because they're weird

And hardly anyone has an 8/16 bit device anyway

Downgoat

so 32-bit or 64-bit?

strawpoll.me/7124554

Mars Ultor

17:37

Both

Downgoat

how?

Mars Ultor

Ifdefs

Downgoat

for every command with a register?

Mars Ultor

And using x32 instructions when 64 bits aren't needed

Downgoat

ah okay

Mars Ultor

17:38

@Downgoat idk

Downgoat

so no 16 bit registers?

Easterly Irk

nope

Downgoat

ok

Mars Ultor

Wait

Q: How to generically specify AX, EAX or RAX depending on architecture?

I'm trying to write some inline assembly that works for 16, 32, 64, 128 bit intel machines (128 bit is sometime in the future). The idea is to use a generic register name so the compiler or assembler picks AX on 8086 (-m16?), EAX on i686 (-m32), RAX on x86_64 (-m64), and so on. I thought I could...

Downgoat

@EasterlyIrk can you recompile the bootloader?

Mars Ultor

17:41

Also, change the ifdef to use x86_64

Downgoat

it's now boot.asm

Mars Ultor

And maybe LP64

Downgoat

%ifdef x86_64
	BITS 64
%else
	BITS 32
%endif

like that?

Mars Ultor

Um

Easterly Irk

totally

Mars Ultor

17:42

__x86_64__

Easterly Irk

^, and then lets test.

Mars Ultor

apparently we need different functions for x32 and x64

Easterly Irk

Lets do 64 to start.

Mars Ultor

64 = rax, rbx, rcx, rdx etc

Downgoat

@EasterlyIrk did it compile successfully?

Mars Ultor

17:47

msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/…

Also, I should sleep now

Easterly Irk

Which do I compile?

boot or loader?

Downgoat

@EasterlyIrk boot.asm

Easterly Irk

okai

Same error.

Downgoat

D:

which line?

Easterly Irk

16.

wait:

0x07C0 ; 0x07C0h is where ...

Y u no have h?

Downgoat

17:51

I'm using a different hex delimiter

Easterly Irk

okai

errors identically either way

Downgoat

@AlexA. can you give us owner ship of this room please?

Easterly Irk

^

Easterly Irk

18:09

@Downgoat

IT WORKED

It did give a warning tho

MacBook-Pro:AvocadOS-master rikerw$ nasm -f bin -o boot.bin boot.asm
boot.asm:19: warning: byte data exceeds bounds
MacBook-Pro:AvocadOS-master rikerw$

Downgoat

:D :D :D:D:D:D:D:

@EasterlyIrk yeah, that might happen

Easterly Irk

BUT IT WORKED

I AM IT"S BESTEST FIREND

Downgoat

FIREND?

ah, that's happening because I've requested a 4K chunk of memory, probably should refactor this code

Easterly Irk

@Downgoat website is up.

And this:

http://wiki.osdev.org/Beginner_Mistakes#GUI_Design

Downgoat

> It will likely take you several years

O_o

@EasterlyIrk \o/

Easterly Irk

18:23

can't do anymore right now.

bai for now

Downgoat

bye

Easterly Irk

18:47

If anybody has time, can they update the website with this theme?

@Downgoat @MarsUltor @Maltysen @zyabin101theHated ^

zyabin101 the Hated

@EasterlyIrk I'll take the task, but won't accept any invite if I complete it.

@EasterlyIrk What to write in the content of the page?

tac

19:03

...jQueryOS? jquery pls

Downgoat

@EasterlyIrk that looks kinda ugly though :/

I'll make it the default and the theme can be changed later

Easterly Irk

19:46

Okai.

@zyabin101theHated invite?

Actually, the original meme text was: "hello i have quetions how does juice an avocado i have try for thirtee minut and no juic"

Downgoat

what theme should I use?

zyabin101 the Hated

@Downgoat Time Machine.

1 hour ago, by Easterly Irk

If anybody has time, can they update the website with this theme?

Downgoat

that's how time machine looks

which domain should I get?

avacados .tk .ml .cf or .gq

zyabin101 the Hated

@Downgoat Just keep as it is. We are not monetised.

Downgoat

no but it's free

and it might get taken

Easterly Irk

20:27

.ninja

.guru

.gg

Downgoat

.avocad

Easterly Irk

yes!!

avocad.avocad

Alex A.

20:52

@Downgoat So you're going with AvocadOS rather than jQueryOS?

Downgoat

@AlexA. yes

Alex A.

room topic changed to AvocadOS: Discussion for the design and creation of AvocadOS. How juic os I try for thirtee minit and segfault (no tags)

Feeds

Alex A. has added Downgoat to the list of this room's owners.

Downgoat

:D

Alex A.

Enjoy

Downgoat

20:55

@AlexA. thanks

phase

21:34

I would just keep the .github.io

It looks like it's an open source project

Bernard Meurer

I papa got it @Downgoat

github.com/tangrs/nspire-linux-loader2

phase

shortdomainsearch.com

Bernard Meurer

I got me a .xyz domain the other day

www.meurer.xyz

phase

how much?

Bernard Meurer

Fo' free

phase

21:36

:o

gimme right now

Bernard Meurer

Ye, a brazilian thingy had a christmas promotion

free for a year with the hosting

now I only gotta renew and it's p. cheap

hostinger.com.br

Downgoat

@BernardMeurer dang that's a lot of files...

Bernard Meurer

@Downgoat cause that's a linux bootloader

Downgoat

true

Bernard Meurer

but there should be some useful reference there

Mars Ultor

23:17

Wait a domain is free?

Also, minimal as in like Arch?

We need a logo icon, do you think minxomat is willing to create one or something?

@phase sure, it makes it look more open-source, but many larger projects have their own domain.

Easterly Irk

@Downgoat .gg

Mars Ultor

23:43

.io domains seem to be really expensive

@EasterlyIrk there's no .gg, just .gq

Easterly Irk

then that one.

PhiNotPi

What's current progress?

Easterly Irk

idk

@Downgoat ^^

PhiNotPi

What can the current code do?

Easterly Irk

Not much.

PhiNotPi

23:56

What can the current code do?

Easterly Irk

Error.

Nothing else.

We're working on a bootloader.
