**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Jul 03 02:59:57 2009 Jul 03 08:35:34 a /n Jul 03 08:35:38 hello Jul 03 08:37:37 anyone here running debian on the plug? Jul 03 08:45:59 yep, i am Jul 03 09:02:36 any problems with installation? or is there a good guide on the net? Jul 03 09:03:21 * snuiter followed the instructions from cyrius.com Jul 03 09:07:09 die u install the tarball? Jul 03 09:07:25 looks good...think i will order the device :-) Jul 03 09:28:11 i did it my way (heh) i made an install with qemu Jul 03 09:28:28 then copy that all to the usb stick/sd card and used that Jul 03 09:28:54 anyway, the instuctions on cyrius works great also Jul 03 09:32:45 sounds good...and it works with the standard arm-kernel? i dont want to build my own kernel (or to use not-official repos all the time)? Jul 03 09:33:08 and a maybe stupid question: how is the usb console working? how do i connect to it? Jul 03 09:34:22 serial/usb Jul 03 09:34:34 the plug on the side is console + jtag Jul 03 09:35:56 i think i have to google it :-) so i can connect my desktop over a mini usb cable to get access to the terminal? Jul 03 09:36:13 yes Jul 03 09:36:58 perfekt :-) thanks Jul 03 09:36:59 you can use the kernel from unstable, that should work Jul 03 09:37:13 so...i think im convinced.... Jul 03 09:37:28 is the "4 weeks delivery" time still actual? Jul 03 09:38:29 BlixaWillBargeld: i ordered mine on jun 2nd, still didn't hear anything Jul 03 09:40:20 hmm Jul 03 09:40:44 i know its hard to wait for things like this :-) i always want it "now" Jul 03 09:40:59 but i think i order now...wait a moment Jul 03 09:44:52 so.....ordered :-) Jul 03 09:46:11 i just got a confirmation of the paypal payment...no confirmation from globalscale Jul 03 09:52:31 it will take a while.. Jul 03 09:52:43 I ordered mine on May 25th and I am still waiting.. Jul 03 09:53:05 I called them yesterday and was told that they are getting a shipment in the middle of July and they will try to fill more orders Jul 03 09:53:22 and they are also hoping for another shipment at the end of the month.. Jul 03 09:53:46 btw, you can login to globalscales website and check your status Jul 03 09:56:09 https://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/signin.aspx? Jul 03 09:56:52 @mail4asim: thanks for the information :_) Jul 03 09:57:15 so i have to go outside this summer when i dont get a computer-toy to play with :-) Jul 03 10:00:08 well, you could always order from one of the other guys, but I would not recommend that.. the development kit is the way to go Jul 03 10:01:21 u mean this ionics site? Jul 03 10:01:31 no pogoplug.com Jul 03 10:02:05 ah ok :-) didnt know this site....will look at it Jul 03 10:02:12 but its too late...i already ordered :-) Jul 03 10:02:37 no no.you don't want it .. Jul 03 10:02:52 read the reviews and comments and you'll find it's for people who want to use their apps.. Jul 03 10:03:00 not something you can play much with Jul 03 10:03:07 ah ok :-) Jul 03 10:03:09 plus the specs are a bit different Jul 03 10:03:10 i want to play :-) Jul 03 10:03:39 read up the chat logs from the past couple of months on this channel and you'll get the 411 on all of this Jul 03 10:04:02 I am pretty new here.. and just read the logs myself only a couple of weeks ago Jul 03 10:04:09 ok...i read something like "iphone support" and know: nothing for me :-) Jul 03 10:04:29 exactly.. Jul 03 10:05:00 yes Jul 03 10:05:57 so i have to wait...in the meantime i have my eeepc hanging around as server.... Jul 03 10:07:27 took 6 weeks before I got mine Jul 03 10:07:48 mine also took a while but mostly because they werent shipping it yet, cannot remember though Jul 03 10:08:25 I am looking at the Marvell site and they have a black model with a side USB port Jul 03 10:08:32 anyone has more details on this new design ? Jul 03 10:11:08 perhaps that will be a final non-dev version? Jul 03 10:11:49 the non-dev version will lack the usb-terminal-connection, right? Jul 03 10:11:50 the side usb port isn't the debug usb port? Jul 03 10:12:26 looks like a normal usb port indeed Jul 03 10:12:41 wish they would put a vga port on it.. man that would be awesome.. Jul 03 10:12:54 I could use it like a thin client.. Jul 03 10:13:06 look on the forum, someone already hooked up a usb2vga :) Jul 03 10:13:09 usb-vga adapter? Jul 03 10:13:12 jinx Jul 03 10:13:17 really ? Jul 03 10:13:19 wow Jul 03 10:13:49 yeah, if i ever see one no sale somewhere i'll get me one, those things shouldnt be that expensive Jul 03 10:20:51 saw this on Ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Siig-USB-2-0-to-VGA-Adapter-JU-000071-S1_W0QQitemZ120417153959QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPCA_Cables_Adapters?hash=item1c096bf3a7&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A15|66%3A4|39%3A1|293%3A1|294%3A200#ebayphotohosting Jul 03 10:36:41 * MoZes would like a USB-vga adaptor working with his plug too Jul 03 10:37:09 * MoZes looks for the post on the forum about it Jul 03 10:37:37 check the succes story forum, it's in there Jul 03 10:37:57 it's mostly just a link to youtube though, but you'd get an idea about the speed also Jul 03 10:40:40 thanks Jul 03 10:45:05 please post the link here if possible Jul 03 10:57:58 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xClCWZ9Nv0A Jul 03 13:43:07 hello Jul 03 13:43:12 got my sheevaplug yay! Jul 03 13:44:39 ive would like to get a usb bluetooth dongle recognized and installed on the sheevaplug, ive downloaded the bluez package and any relevant package, but i just can't get bluetoothd to run. is there something about kernel flags that i missed? any help appreciated... Jul 03 13:46:03 oh well found something on the forum - will try it (http://plugcomputer.org/plugforum/index.php?topic=200.0) Jul 03 17:46:44 hmm damn. my usb enclosure isn't supported. Jul 03 17:46:45 scanning bus for storage devices... Sorry, protocol 2 not yet supported Jul 03 17:46:54 * MoZes thought USB2 was supported Jul 03 17:49:31 :/ Jul 03 17:49:38 I'd be worried if it wasnt Jul 03 17:50:22 I'm pretty sure it is, as that's how everybody's connecting stuff... Jul 03 17:55:37 hmm Jul 03 18:45:53 MoZes: what is happening to make you think it is not supported? Jul 03 18:46:37 MoZes: What type of enclosure and what device in the enclosure? Jul 03 19:19:37 tinker-f595: this is what u-boot says on boot Jul 03 19:21:00 (Re)start USB... Jul 03 19:21:00 USB: scanning bus for devices... 2 USB Device(s) found scanning bus for storage devices... Sorry, protocol 2 not yet supported. Jul 03 19:21:03 0 Storage Device(s) found Jul 03 19:21:12 +-2 Mass Storage (480MBit/s, 100mA) VIA Technologies Inc. USB 2.0 IDE Bridge 000000000001 Jul 03 19:29:28 perhaps it's not usb1.1 compatible? Jul 03 19:30:31 it's a "Startec" thing - new. Jul 03 19:30:47 (and that's why it mentions protocol 2? (usb 1.0 , 1.1, 2.0 etc) Jul 03 19:30:50 but dunno really Jul 03 19:30:53 I tink it's more like u-boot isn't great Jul 03 19:31:02 oh I see Jul 03 19:31:04 * MoZes doesn't know Jul 03 19:52:24 might be a timing issue... Jul 03 19:52:41 might be that your usb device takes too long to come up. Jul 03 19:53:00 try putting a delay in the uboot sequence Jul 03 19:54:00 what enclosure are you using and what device is in the enclosure? Jul 03 19:54:54 MoZes: also are you using the latest u-boot built for the sheevaplug? Jul 03 20:10:35 tinker-f595: it's a "#StarTech.com 3.5in Silver USB 2.0 One Button IDE External Hard Drive Enclosure - Storage enclosure - ATA-133 - Hi-Speed USB - silver" Jul 03 20:10:57 not had experience withthat Jul 03 20:11:03 one Jul 03 20:11:12 tinker-f595: latest u-boot - I'm not sure; I was looking for the location of the .bin but haven't found it yet Jul 03 20:11:16 do you know where it is? Jul 03 20:11:23 I have had problems with enclosures on other systems Jul 03 20:11:59 were the enclosures were too slow to wake up . Of course I returned those enclosures Jul 03 20:12:08 same here, it helps to already power on the disk/enclosure and wait a bit before hooking it up (and then turn on the plug) Jul 03 20:12:16 oh you want a later u-boot? Jul 03 20:12:22 just a second Jul 03 20:12:46 I doubt it's about spinup delay - u-boot finds the device Jul 03 20:13:07 it's also self-powered and had been spinning for a while Jul 03 20:15:10 MoZes: read http://plugcomputer.org/plugforum/index.php?topic=355.0 and http://www.plugcomputer.org/plugwiki/index.php/SheevaPlug_Installer Jul 03 20:16:08 for some hints on the later u-boot build Jul 03 20:16:14 also look on the forum Jul 03 20:18:15 ok thanks Jul 03 20:18:18 * MoZes looks Jul 03 20:18:56 http://plugcomputer.org/plugforum/index.php?topic=460.0 **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Jul 04 02:59:57 2009
