04:25 ralix morning
04:26 ralix I could cry, last night joined my Cubox a short break in the power line and my Cubox is dead: (
04:27 dotarray oh no ralix!
04:29 ralix morning dotarray : Yep :( I'll have to order new ones, but the weeks of waiting time :(
05:35 chuck999 I have a cubox thats dead - I think it's a dead power regulator in the cubox, anyone know if that might be covered by or repaired by solidrun or easily user-replaceable? I havent cracked the box as I don't think it'll go back together.
05:37 dotarray chuck999 - best advice for you is to email [email protected], they'll let you know.
05:37 chuck999 will do, thanks
05:38 dotarray good luck!
05:38 dotarray i'll let the team know you popped in here this morning too - it's a little early for them to be around just yet :)
05:38 dotarray (same goes for you too, ralix!)
05:43 ralix ok I'm doing well
05:43 ralix thx dotarray
05:46 ralix it's a little early;-) I'm awake since 4 clock in the morning because I could not believe it that my box is dead. Unfortunately, there was not to last night;-)
06:42 ralix So I go to work. until later ...
07:13 dotarray you didn't end up posting any comments on the blog, N30N! :)
08:08 ralix morning
10:39 N30N dotarray: sorry but I don't have anything constructive to add about Nemo.
10:43 dotarray you don't like it?
10:45 ralix Since my Cubox yes now dead. I have time for other things.
10:45 ralix My question is there something like a build eviroment which I can build Archlinux for cubox from scratch on my PC?
10:45 N30N dotarray: Nope, not intrested in running it on the cubox
10:46 N30N ralix: sorry to hear about your cubox :/
10:46 dotarray N30N - let me know if there is anything you're more interested in, and i'll look it up ;)
10:47 Punkley_Chillin I don't know about Archlinux, but I have built a basic ubuntu environment before.
10:47 Punkley_Chillin but that was very very basic.
10:47 Punkley_Chillin enough to boot.
10:48 Punkley_Chillin u can however get arm emulators but I don't recall what they are called off the top of my head
10:48 N30N ralix: you could use qemu
10:49 Punkley_Chillin thats the one :)
10:50 Punkley_Chillin N30N response for the win :)
10:50 ralix I was also a little sad this morning.
10:50 Punkley_Chillin least you aren't in a basement in NYC.
10:51 Punkley_Chillin so what happened to your cubox.
10:53 ralix Last night a lot and installed my new hard drive (my sata problem-solved yesterday) and this morning I got it turned on and then she was dead
10:54 Punkley_Chillin hdd or cubox?
10:54 ralix cubox
10:54 ralix :(
10:55 Punkley_Chillin :(
10:55 ralix yep
10:55 Punkley_Chillin nothing on the serial port.
10:55 ralix N30N, Qemu is a good idea. I'm just not quite sure how to build from scratch Archlinux.
10:55 Punkley_Chillin is it getting power ok.
10:55 ralix no nothing
10:56 N30N ralix: you should be able to chroot into the rootfs with it
10:57 ralix The power supply unit (flashing) before it glowed always ... At the Cubox one sees no longer, serial will be nothing.
10:57 Punkley_Chillin :(
10:58 ralix N30N, I google a little bit :-)
11:02 N30N ralix: see http://wiki.debian.org/QemuUserEmulation or http://cqlug.linux.org.au/node/19
11:03 ralix oh cool thx!
13:57 ralix How does it actually with the delivery times for Cubox from currently?
13:57 ralix I think I'm going to order next week first ne new.
14:14 dotarray ralix - there's no backlog, if you order tomorrow it should be sent by the end of the week / early next :)
14:14 ralix :)
14:15 ralix I'm just waiting for my salary :)
14:16 rabeeh ralix: i wonder what happened to it.
14:17 ralix Me too :)
14:17 rabeeh support sends me lots of emails of people mistakenly putting 12v / 19v and even there was one with 24v power supply instead of the 5V
14:17 rabeeh are you one of those ? :)
14:18 ralix Hehe, no, I just used the original. Always.
14:19 rabeeh do you have something connected on the USB ports?
14:19 ralix If the box is faster with more volts ?;-)
14:21 ralix Yes my old hdd and my new one. Which also works very well.
14:22 ralix At the beginning of week 1 hdd and a satellite receiver without problems.
14:23 ralix Except for the problem with the stuttering hd pictures ;-) this was anather problem
