| 03:06.03 | agaffney | it breaks things in very weird ways |

| 03:44.55 | jbevren | yawn. |
| 03:45.34 | agaffney | stab. |
| 03:45.51 | agaffney | the kernel still doesn't support the AC97 audio on my nforce4 board |
| 03:45.59 | agaffney | which means I can't steal the es1371 for my walnut |
| 03:46.11 | jbevren | nvidia has a patched 810 driver |
| 03:46.17 | jbevren | its in the nforceware stuff for linux |
| 03:47.09 | agaffney | hmm |
| 03:50.22 | agaffney | the included nvmixer program requires qt :/ |
| 03:50.36 | agaffney | and I believe I tried this before |
| 03:50.58 | agaffney | although, the version in the portage tree a few months ago may not have supported my relatively new board |
| 03:54.34 | jbevren | I just get my drivers from nvidia |
| 04:52.51 | jbevren | this is getting tiresome |
| 04:56.25 | agaffney | meh, nvmixer requires qt *3* |
| 04:56.32 | agaffney | wtf |
| 04:56.37 | jbevren | tell it to not build nvmixer |
| 04:56.50 | agaffney | it's distributed as a binary |
| 04:56.56 | agaffney | but I need a mixer program :) |
| 04:57.05 | agaffney | unless I can use alsamixer with it |
| 04:57.12 | agaffney | or is it even alsa-based? |
| 04:59.46 | jbevren | its probably oss |
| 04:59.51 | jbevren | so you can use aumix et.al |
| 05:01.58 | agaffney | the module isn't giving me any mixer devices :/ |
| 05:02.41 | agaffney | bah, I'll just look for an older PCI SB card for the walnut |
| 05:03.52 | agaffney | didn't someone say that the es1370 was preferrable to the es1371? |
| 05:04.10 | jbevren | dunno |
| 05:04.18 | jbevren | all my ess hardware is onboard |

| 15:33.02 | agaffney | hmm, I can't seem to find the instructions for creating the uImage on the wiki |
| 15:33.12 | jbevren | you need the mkimage tool |
| 15:33.20 | jbevren | and type 'make uImage' in the kernel tree |
| 15:33.25 | agaffney | I seem to remember having to build uboot and then running 'make uImage' or something |
| 15:33.30 | agaffney | ah |
| 15:33.35 | agaffney | mkimage is part of uboot? |
| 15:34.59 | jbevren | shrug |
| 15:34.59 | jbevren | I got it from some arm toolkit to work with my ppc |
| 15:34.59 | jbevren | heh |
| 15:35.29 | agaffney | heh |
| 15:36.24 | agaffney | a google search tells me mkimage is part of u-boot |
| 15:38.09 | jbevren | :) |
| 15:42.26 | agaffney | whee! |
| 15:43.41 | jbevren | get it? |
| 15:43.50 | agaffney | yep |
| 15:43.59 | agaffney | had to hack on the Makefile a bit in tools/ |
| 15:44.12 | agaffney | make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-softfloat-linux-uclibc- uImage |
| 15:44.19 | agaffney | silly kernel compile :P |
| 15:44.26 | agaffney | cross-compiling can be a royal pita sometimes |
| 15:44.33 | agaffney | anyway, kernel building... |
| 15:45.01 | jbevren | oh |
| 15:45.04 | jbevren | edit the kernel Makefile |
| 15:45.10 | jbevren | it has ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE entries in it ;-) |
| 15:45.25 | agaffney | meh, this works just as well :) |
| 15:45.28 | jbevren | that'll save you some typing :) |
| 15:45.57 | agaffney | I started with the 2.6.15 config up on the wiki and added alsa es137[01] support |
| 15:46.11 | agaffney | since I don't know if I'll be using my es1371 or the es1370 I've got coming |
| 15:46.48 | jbevren | that was a bit delayed :) |
| 15:46.57 | agaffney | unless your mkimage was built for x86_64, it probably wouldn't have worked too well for me :) |
| 15:47.41 | agaffney | <PROTECTED> |
| 15:47.44 | agaffney | hurray! |
| 15:48.49 | agaffney | I wish these boards could be remotely power cycled |
| 15:49.08 | agaffney | via serial |
| 15:49.12 | agaffney | or even just reset |
| 15:49.19 | agaffney | something like Stop-A or a serial break on sparc :P |
| 15:49.28 | agaffney | to get back to u-boot |
| 16:01.42 | jbevren | check epanorama.net for their 'serial reset' circuit |
| 16:01.45 | jbevren | it listens for a break signal |
| 16:01.51 | jbevren | and when one is sent, it trips reset on the board :) |
| 16:02.12 | jbevren | it'll take some digging, there's lots at that site |
| 16:22.41 | dfarnsworth | good morning folks |

| 16:27.53 | jbevren | getting my WoW character to 19 |
| 16:28.06 | jbevren | now we can do some pounding in the PvP arena :) |
| 16:32.54 | jbevren | world of warcraft |
| 16:33.05 | jbevren | pvp is player vs player, where people collect in a map and fight for flags |
| 16:33.35 | dfarnsworth | ah, now that makes sense. I haven't been into gaming for (too many) years. |
| 16:33.45 | jbevren | the '19' is my player's level. It's at the top of that PvP bracket heh |
| 16:34.47 | dfarnsworth | my son seems to live on WoW. (now you know I'm an old timer) |
| 16:35.01 | jbevren | heh |
| 16:35.05 | jbevren | I'm old enough for children |
| 16:35.17 | jbevren | but I wont trust anything that can bleed for a week of every month and survive |
| 16:35.25 | jbevren | those things are evil :) |
| 16:45.49 | agaffney | pfft...that line was blatantly stolen from south park |
| 16:46.26 | jbevren | I'd been saying that since long before southpark |
| 16:46.34 | agaffney | "I just don't trust anything that bleeds for five days and doesn't die." |
| 16:46.35 | agaffney | heh |
| 16:50.32 | jbevren | I remember the last time I dated a girl |
| 16:50.38 | jbevren | she told me one of my friends 'had to go' |
| 16:50.47 | jbevren | I threw her purse and coat out in the snow and told her to never come back |

| 18:41.30 | prpplague | jbevren: 1 for the flash and two for sdram upgrade |
| 18:41.46 | prpplague | jbevren: first version of my dev board will just be for the flash interface |
| 18:41.52 | jbevren | ah |
| 18:41.52 | prpplague | jbevren: second will upgrade the sdram |
| 18:42.01 | prpplague | jbevren: i've already got most of it layed out |
| 18:42.21 | prpplague | jbevren: jtag, rs-232, usb address/data bus |

| 18:51.16 | jbevren | lol stop showing me these things :) |
| 18:51.21 | jbevren | youre evil! |
| 19:05.41 | prpplague | jbevren: oh you don't know the half of it |
| 19:05.49 | prpplague | jbevren: guess what i just did??? |
| 19:06.19 | prpplague | jbevren guess guess guess guess guess guess |
| 19:08.27 | prpplague | jbevren: ok so you i'll tell you anyway |
| 19:08.44 | prpplague | jbevren: i just read the data from a gba cart using my pixter color |
| 19:09.17 | prpplague | jbevren: know what this means? |
| 19:09.48 | prpplague | jbevren: we can use this - http://www.the-console-corner.com/shop/product.php?productid=6062 |
| 19:09.53 | prpplague | jbevren: to dev on the pixter |

| 19:26.15 | prpplague | hehe |
| 19:26.25 | prpplague | jbevren: think about my shipping costs |
| 19:38.12 | jbevren | :P |
| 19:38.21 | jbevren | so was the pentablet related? heh |
| 19:39.02 | prpplague | no just happened to see it |
| 20:05.12 | jbevren | prpplague: so these flash devices work with linux? :) |
| 20:06.08 | prpplague | jbevren: can |
| 20:06.20 | prpplague | jbevren: you'd need a special driver |
| 20:10.28 | jbevren | of course |
| 20:10.29 | jbevren | heh |
| 20:10.34 | jbevren | I wasnt meaning out-of-box linux :) |
| 20:23.01 | jbevren | .ds prpp do you know the diffrence between an 'fc' and 'fm' electrolytic cap? :) |
| 20:23.04 | jbevren | ds? gah |
| 20:23.07 | jbevren | mud flashback |
| 20:23.13 | jbevren | prpplague:^ |
| 20:23.50 | prpplague | sorry no, i'm not really a hardware person |
| 20:23.54 | jbevren | heh ok |
| 20:24.01 | jbevren | that's got to be the quote of the day too |
| 20:24.02 | prpplague | i'm a hack remember |
| 20:24.04 | jbevren | <prpplague> sorry no, i'm not really a hardware person |
| 20:24.06 | jbevren | :D |
| 20:24.18 | jbevren | my nephew and his friend blew the psu caps on their motherboards las weekend |
| 20:24.21 | jbevren | sux to be them :D |
| 20:24.33 | jbevren | so I figured I'd get replacements and see if the cpu's are blown too |
| 20:25.13 | jbevren | my nephew blowing caps doesnt sruprise me.. he blew the caps on his geforce a month ago |
| 20:25.14 | jbevren | heh |
| 20:25.23 | agaffney | htf did he do that? |
| 20:25.37 | jbevren | agaffney: I blame the capacitor manufacturer |
| 20:25.48 | jbevren | he powered up and POP! sweeeee... |
| 20:25.49 | agaffney | riiiiiiiight |
| 20:26.08 | agaffney | if it was just one incident, maybe |
| 20:26.09 | jbevren | he knows his hardware, so I find it unlikely that he caused it |
| 20:26.21 | jbevren | anyway, between blow-outs, his psu went out |
| 20:26.24 | agaffney | but two incidents a month apart? |
| 20:26.25 | jbevren | so I suspect the old psu did damage |
| 20:26.29 | agaffney | hmm |
| 20:26.36 | jbevren | anyway, this time |
| 20:26.39 | jbevren | they went to a lan party |
| 20:26.45 | jbevren | They carried their computers in the trunk |
| 20:26.46 | jbevren | lol |
| 20:26.50 | jbevren | a -cold- trunk :) |
| 20:27.00 | jbevren | I think condensate threw the regulators off and blew the caps |
| 20:35.08 | prpplague | ho ho hum |
| 20:35.15 | prpplague | so much to buy so little money |

| 21:46.22 | jbevren | 20 days? |
| 21:46.29 | jbevren | :) |
| 21:46.31 | sunrunner20 | no |
| 21:46.36 | sunrunner20 | canon 20D |
| 21:46.41 | jbevren | ohh |
| 21:46.42 | sunrunner20 | 8.5MP of goodness |
| 21:46.42 | jbevren | nice cam? |
| 21:46.51 | jbevren | I want to get a digital SLR |
| 21:46.55 | sunrunner20 | thats what this is |
| 21:46.56 | jbevren | so I'm not stuck with a crappy lens |
| 21:47.04 | sunrunner20 | digital SLR body |
| 21:47.25 | sunrunner20 | 8.5 megapixels :-> |
| 21:47.54 | jbevren | you mentioned the 8.5MP part :) |
| 21:47.56 | sunrunner20 | :p |
| 21:48.11 | sunrunner20 | and we have a simi-macro lense |
| 21:48.21 | sunrunner20 | hopefully i'll be able to get good pictures of PCBs |
| 21:48.37 | sunrunner20 | no more taking and putting backtogether |
| 21:48.43 | jbevren | http://www.jbevren.net/pixter/pixterboard-overhead.jpg <- macro function on nikon coolpix |
| 21:49.30 | sunrunner20 | too many blobs :\ |
| 21:49.36 | jbevren | nod |
| 21:49.40 | jbevren | but the important parts are there |
| 21:49.43 | jbevren | the ring of pads is jtag |
| 21:49.44 | sunrunner20 | no |
| 21:49.51 | sunrunner20 | blobs= epoxy chips |
| 21:49.54 | jbevren | I know |
| 21:49.59 | jbevren | but the important parts arae there :) |
| 21:50.00 | sunrunner20 | ok |
| 21:50.03 | sunrunner20 | lol |
| 21:50.08 | jbevren | jtag, usb, serial |
| 21:50.12 | jbevren | sdram |
| 21:50.40 | jbevren | the big pita with macro on the nikon is its auto-focus |
| 21:50.46 | sunrunner20 | I wonder if i can make a FPGA emulate NOR... |
| 21:50.56 | jbevren | http://www.jbevren.net/pixter/pixterMM-cpu+dac--LARGE-FILE.jpg took about 5 minutes |
| 21:51.01 | jbevren | it kept focusing on the capacitors' top |
| 21:51.02 | jbevren | heh |
| 21:51.07 | sunrunner20 | lol |
| 21:51.55 | sunrunner20 | I hope to be able to read the numbers on the SMT resistors w/ this camera |
| 21:54.45 | jbevren | with a good lens, no prob |
| 21:54.48 | jbevren | I can with mine, and its a pos :) |
| 21:55.56 | jbevren | digikey doesnt sell gender changerS? |
| 21:56.38 | sunrunner20 | looked under cable sets? |
| 21:57.08 | jbevren | using the search engine heh |
| 21:57.48 | jbevren | "dual-port D-SUB" |

| 23:53.27 | Eulex | heh, ok |
| 23:56.21 | Eulex | anyway, from reading a bit on the net I've seen that a lot embedded devices use the arm architecture. but there doesn't seem to be any free arm disassembler out there, so I haven't been able to test |
| 23:58.32 | Eulex | ah, found one: http://www.tixy.clara.net/source/index.html#ARM%20Assembler |
