20:26 Cubox The alimentation cable of the CuBox just died.
20:26 Cubox Where can I buy another one ?
20:26 Cubox And, if possible, the original one
20:27 Cubox (don't know if solidrun can sendmeanother and tell me references.
20:27 Cubox )
20:56 rabeeh Cubox: what died?
20:56 Cubox the alimentation
20:56 Cubox The thing you put in AC
20:56 Cubox There is no green led
20:57 rabeeh ?
20:57 rabeeh how
20:57 Cubox I don't know
20:57 Cubox I wake up, and it was died.
20:57 Cubox :(
20:57 Cubox I woke up *
21:13 rmull Cubox: That's odd, have you opened it up and looked for burned or disfigured components?
21:16 rmull Cubox: If you're looking to replace, some details about the AC adapter are here: http://www.solid-run.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=603
22:35 Cubox rmull: rabeeh sorry for not answering. I did not looked well. How can I do this ? (i'm not manual, i have an apple computer ;))
22:41 rmull It's probably not designed to be easily opened
22:42 Cubox Hmm
22:42 Cubox Is the green led on when I put it without the cubox ?
22:42 Cubox (put it on the ac)
22:43 rmull The green LED should always be on when plugged into AC
22:44 Cubox Ok, so it's dead
22:44 rabeeh is it steady green when CuBox not plugged?
22:44 Cubox It's not on
22:44 Cubox I will shoy you a picture
22:44 Cubox show*
22:44 rabeeh can u try other outlet?
22:44 rabeeh or maybe other home? :)
22:44 Cubox my home is fine :<
22:45 rabeeh hehe. i was just kidding
22:45 rabeeh do u have a 5V 2A power supply around?
22:45 rabeeh the power supply should be really standard.
22:46 Cubox hmmmmmm
22:46 rabeeh if you don't power anything from the USB, then even a 5V 1A (or even less) should be good enough
22:46 Cubox I don't have such a think which can enter in the cubox
22:47 Cubox from the usb ?
22:47 Cubox what do you mean ?
22:47 rabeeh if you plug a usb hard drive to the CuBox usb, then CuBox will be providing power to the drive.
22:47 rabeeh that power will be coming from the same power supply that is connected to CuBox.
22:48 Cubox yes
22:48 Cubox i don't understand why you mentioned usb :)

22:57 Cubox ss/saw/see/
23:06 rmull Cubox: Do you have a multimeter?
23:07 Cubox No :/
23:17 Cubox Okey, I will go to sleep. The power for the CuBox is not an emergency. Let's talk about this tommorow. I will ask to my phisics teatcher if he can test the adaptator :D 'night.
