08:33 jnettlet[m]> Ke: I think you will run into the serial port issue with most cases.
08:33 jnettlet[m]> I wonder if it would make sense to also include a header to it so you can move the port.
08:33 jnettlet[m]> If anyone else is looking for a more compact case, I am going to be testing this one. http://www.chieftec.eu/en/chassis/itx/compact-series/ix-03b.html
08:34 jnettlet[m]> since airlines are becoming increasingly aggressive about scanning boards I needed something compact I could travel with.
08:35 jnettlet[m]> I like that it includes a dc to dc converter and 90Watt power supply
08:35 jnettlet[m]> pretty decent price also.
08:38 Ke> jnettlet[m]: I think there is a 3v3 ttl serial header on the board, I just need to find a adapter for it
08:40 jnettlet[m]> Ke: I don't know if that is enabled by default. Let me take a look.
08:53 Ke> I am in trouble, if it isn't
08:54 Ke> well, I guess I can still maim one of my USB cables, if it isn't
09:17 jnettlet[m]> or your case. should just need to dremel a small bit from the frame
09:24 Ke> heh, I thought dremel was a finnish expression
09:25 Ke> I have loads of excess cables, so maiming them is preferred
10:00 Ke> oh dear, uart1 does not seem to print anythin
12:59 Ke> now I replaced my old router power source with 1A 12V power source
12:59 Ke> it seems to be enough to even run the sata drive
