**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Jan 22 02:59:58 2007 Jan 22 04:49:13 hello Jan 22 16:10:32 * VoodooZ drools all over the N2100 awesome processing power Jan 22 16:11:03 does it have an FPU too? Jan 22 16:12:05 * VoodooZ looks at specs/prices/support.... Jan 22 16:14:31 dunno about FPU Jan 22 16:14:35 but it's fast enough :) Jan 22 16:14:40 Runs debian like a charm Jan 22 16:14:46 it sports an Intel IOP 80219 Jan 22 16:14:58 (although my n2100 is currently dismantled :P) Jan 22 16:15:14 I think it runs at 600Mhz and because it's for media it does have a VFP or something like that... Jan 22 16:15:20 It also has DDR400 easily-replacable ram Jan 22 16:15:22 I wonder if anybody has started hacking it. Jan 22 16:15:25 nice!!! Jan 22 16:15:42 Of course someone has hacked it ;) Jan 22 16:15:47 haha Jan 22 16:15:52 it has a RS232 serial port Jan 22 16:15:57 runs redboot Jan 22 16:16:04 anyways, I have to go for lunch but I'll be right back to discuss this. Jan 22 16:16:11 keep the specs coming! :) Jan 22 16:16:19 how much $$$?? Jan 22 16:16:19 brb Jan 22 16:17:37 16MB flash, 128mb ram from the factory, 600MHz IOP, RS232 serial, 2x S-ATA, easily-replaceable 25mm(?) fan, three USB2-ports (+ one internal), one miniPCI slot Jan 22 16:18:17 RTC has driver in vanilla kernel I believe Jan 22 16:18:22 flash is standard intel Jan 22 16:19:07 Vendor Redboot is sane (!), respects flash partitioning, possible to change bootscript Jan 22 16:19:25 There's a debian installer image ready for it Jan 22 16:21:18 info: http://www.cyrius.com/debian/iop/n2100/index.html Jan 22 16:21:41 Dunno about pricing where you are. It's expensive here in .no. (Everything here is :-P) Jan 22 17:02:27 NAiL: thanks for the specs. It looks great. Jan 22 17:02:32 np Jan 22 17:02:38 I love it ;) Jan 22 17:02:57 Heard of anyone making it run under OE? Jan 22 17:06:20 No, but it shouldn't be too hard. Most of the support is in the vanilla kernel by now Jan 22 17:07:59 ouch! way too expensive though: http://www.mendax.com/serverInfo.aspx?productID=368066 Jan 22 17:08:03 that must include the HD, which I don't need Jan 22 17:08:24 I bought mine without disks Jan 22 17:08:36 oh! you have one already? nice Jan 22 17:08:51 So you can buy them w/o disks then. good Jan 22 17:11:57 I think I paid 520USD for mine, without disks. Jan 22 17:12:04 As I said, it's expensive Jan 22 17:12:24 what? at that price I might as well by an old portable for my next robot. Jan 22 17:12:40 i wonder how much current it takes though. Jan 22 17:12:45 not exactly designed to be portable. Jan 22 17:13:49 It's a very nice server though ;) Jan 22 17:22:00 yes. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Jan 23 02:59:59 2007
