| 11:43 | topi` | Exaga: what do you intend to do with the Marvell board? |
| 11:43 | topi` | it looks fine for some kind of router device |
| 11:45 | topi` | it seems jnettlet has disappeared... does anyone know if there is a possibility to program such a Watchdog on the HB that would reset the zImage if the new image fails to boot? |
| 11:46 | topi` | i.e. after a kernel update, a symlink is changed to point to the updated kernel, and if that kernel fails to bring up the system to normal working state, then that symlink is reset to the previous kernel? |
| 11:47 | topi` | I know the Snapdragon devices, like SD600, have a programmable RPM unit which can be used to reset the whole system |
| 11:55 | Exaga | topi`: i don't have a clearfog... YET! :D |
| 11:55 | Exaga | and when i do have one... toe possibilities are virtually endless |
| 11:56 | Exaga | i can see great potential for business with this device |
| 11:56 | Exaga | it will combine many already existing expensive alternatives into one device |
| 11:58 | Exaga | i'm literally wetting myself with excitement when I think about it |
| 11:59 | Exaga | solidrun have proved they are leading the way in terms of technology and innovation and it won;t be long before others will follow them |
| 12:01 | Exaga | topi`: in terms of what i would use it for personally... first thing that comes to mind is a dedicated linux firewall/router |
| 12:02 | Exaga | of course, running Slackware |
| 12:02 | Exaga | the clearfog is the kind of thing that dreams are made of, for me personally |
| 12:26 | Artox | Exaga: lol |
| 12:27 | Exaga | Artox: hi o/ |
| 12:27 | Exaga | how's it going? |
| 12:27 | Artox | its crawling |
| 12:27 | Artox | university finally started again |
| 12:28 | Exaga | good news then :) |
| 12:28 | Artox | you could say so |
| 12:28 | Exaga | my free time has been hacked to pieces by windows 10 |
| 12:29 | Artox | Oh. Lovely. How so? |
| 12:29 | Exaga | in my line of work i maintain and repair a lot of windows machines |
| 12:29 | Exaga | and allowing users to upgrade to a new OS is not the best idea when the software is flawed |
| 12:30 | Exag | 12:30 * Exaga points a strained finger towards microsoft |
| 12:30 | Exaga | so lots of overtime and extra hours putting things back to the way they were or fixing windows 10 itself |
| 12:31 | Artox | I see |
| 12:32 | Artox | sounds as fun as vivante gpu blobs |
| 12:32 | Exaga | it's far from fun Artox lol |
| 12:32 | Artox | exactly |
| 12:51 | mk001 | topi`: use boot script with such structure: http://paste.debian.net/332645/ |
| 12:51 | mk001 | in userspace, remove variable failedboot. |
| 12:52 | mk001 | and keep copy of "good" kernel + dtb in /boot/failover |
| 13:01 | vpeter | topi`: My intension with clearfog is to build all in one device acting as a router, wifi ap, nas. Attaching one m.2 disk for silent operation and another hdd for biger storage. |
| 13:02 | Exaga | vpeter: it will be perfect as a NAS solution |
| 13:02 | Exaga | in fact, i'm challenging myself to think of a use the clearfog wouldn;t be suited for :D |
| 13:03 | Exaga | maybe it wouldn't be so good as a cricket bat, but for everything else YES! :P |
| 13:03 | vpeter | I don't want few devices around because I don't have a need for real nas. All I want to have some central torage with low power usage. |
| 13:03 | Exaga | ya. i think the same from a personal opinion. but the potential as a business application is mindblowing |
| 13:04 | Exaga | welkom Artox :> |
| 13:04 | Artox | Thank you Exaga |
| 13:04 | vpeter | O yes, and don't forget the mikroBUS and attaching small devices on it. |
| 13:05 | Exaga | vpeter: i'm checking into that right now |
| 13:05 | vpeter | Maybe my electronics education I got will finally come into play :) |
| 13:07 | Exaga | a friend of mine explained that the switchnode converter takes a hider/narrower pulse from the power supply |
| 13:07 | Exaga | and i haven't got a clue what that means LOL! |
| 13:07 | Exaga | anybody who does understand what that means must work for NASA! |
| 13:07 | vpeter | Well, you don't need to know that to actually use the supply :-) |
| 13:07 | Exaga | haha ye |
| 13:11 | vpeter | I was looking around for some similr devices but seems there is not any. Or if they are the support is ... not good. |
| 13:21 | Exaga | vpeter: i haven't seen any either |
| 13:22 | Exaga | i've just commented on it, saying that makes solidrun world leaders in this field of technology :D |
| 13:22 | Exaga | seriously cool |
| 13:26 | Artox | topi`: you needed to rebuild kernel for your keyboard? |
| 13:26 | Artox | is that a simple change to .config? |
| 13:27 | Artox | if so, I could add it to the package |
| 17:37 | Artox | topi`: maybe for next update then; let me know |
| 18:43 | shoxxx | o/ |
| 18:43 | shoxxx | hello |
| 18:46 | shoxxx | guys have you ever had a issue of your cubox buzzing over hdmi (onkyo reciever). It would happen when I moved the mouse or navigated through the menu (Openelec 6). My house wiring isnt great and it is fine again today but wondered if the power supply was very sensitive. |
