**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Jul 26 03:00:01 2018 Jul 26 06:14:30 I exchanged the Samsung UHD video monitor with TN panel for an LG UHD video monitor with IPS panel because TN panels suck. **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Jul 26 08:30:46 2018 Jul 26 15:50:08 lol Jul 26 15:50:15 poor wizzup Jul 26 15:55:32 gnu Jul 26 15:58:44 https://www.ebay.com/itm/PENNOKN900-N-Pennino-per-Nokia-N900-Black-Original-originale/142851339758?hash=item21429a75ee:g:X1wAAOSw~ztbOdLq Jul 26 16:00:02 xes, seen the shipping? Jul 26 16:00:16 they must be sending it on a pallet Jul 26 16:03:35 KotCzarny: how much is it asking for shipping (on your browser)? Jul 26 16:03:41 30eur Jul 26 16:03:46 :) Jul 26 16:03:48 from .it to .pl Jul 26 16:04:02 so kinda off hook bat shit crazy Jul 26 16:04:10 its italy shipping is expensive Jul 26 16:04:14 they made some mistake :) Jul 26 16:04:48 i can ship 1kg package to hongkong for 15eur Jul 26 16:05:07 with insurance and delivery confirmation Jul 26 16:05:49 please don't tell me what you are shipping to HK that weights 1KG Jul 26 16:06:02 broken ssd Jul 26 16:06:03 :P Jul 26 16:06:14 what you had on mind? Jul 26 16:07:59 i really can't imagine anything of that volume that you could write about Jul 26 16:08:47 anyway, never buy noname ssd from aliexpress Jul 26 16:08:55 it worked almost exactly 1 month Jul 26 16:09:06 then just disappeared from the system Jul 26 16:09:31 and i didnt even made it do any hard work Jul 26 16:09:37 don't worry, early intel ssd behave almost the same way ;) Jul 26 16:10:04 just filled it over 90%, then some garbage collection run started to get hairy, then after one freeze it just disappeared Jul 26 16:10:06 after some time they swith to ZERO size "mode" Jul 26 16:10:20 nah, it doesnt even show as a device Jul 26 16:10:33 bathtub steep way down to sink Jul 26 16:10:37 unless you know some trick to do low level reset Jul 26 16:11:07 check if there is PWM voltage adapter on board.. Jul 26 16:11:30 i dont want to open it, going to ship it back to get either replacement or refund Jul 26 16:11:48 but tell me more in case i have similar situatio in the future Jul 26 16:13:14 ssd power management is a mess and could produce high temperatures of power regulators (expecially if very cheap) Jul 26 16:14:21 or if you use msata with sata adapters, sata adapters usually have crap voltage regulators 5V -> 3.3V that burn very easily Jul 26 16:15:09 loosing great power since they are not pwm Jul 26 16:15:49 so, i would never buy a cheap ssd from aliexpress Jul 26 16:16:04 in this case it looked more like buggy firmware issue tho Jul 26 16:17:36 i would suggest you to follow linux-ide vger mailing list to check how many patches/exceptions/white lists/black lists they add to adjust ssd power management of specific brand/models Jul 26 16:18:16 ..and i never read about aliexpress nobrand ssd fixes Jul 26 16:18:23 i suspect, still, that wouldnt explain total drive disappearance (tried direct in dock and via usb adapter) Jul 26 16:19:51 if ssd never switches to low power modes, temperature can become very high ..producing "surprises" Jul 26 16:20:03 ho hum Jul 26 16:20:13 heat related death is plausible Jul 26 16:20:32 especially that nonames usually have faked smart and no thermal probe Jul 26 16:21:04 I would choose a refund.. Jul 26 16:21:11 although samsung 830 doesnt have thermal probe neither Jul 26 16:21:46 and 850/860 and also crucial receive one patch a week Jul 26 16:24:35 still, that 830 works for a few years in the same laptop Jul 26 16:24:46 which says something about quality Jul 26 16:24:52 https://marc.info/?l=linux-ide&m=152147370917269&w=2 Jul 26 16:27:03 is that list searchable? Jul 26 16:27:03 https://marc.info/?l=linux-ide&m=152631196600752&w=2 Jul 26 16:27:08 can you feel the taste of the breeze? Jul 26 16:27:14 :) Jul 26 16:28:25 my mechanical drive has also 2 advanced features that with specific sounds notifies me about his status :D Jul 26 16:28:40 hehehe Jul 26 16:29:12 zzzzzz/silence... trik trak/silence.. Jul 26 16:29:12 grind noise and mad termite attack noise? Jul 26 16:29:15 he he ;) Jul 26 16:29:25 but, still running Jul 26 16:29:46 some drives also did bell like sounds when head was flying too far ;) Jul 26 16:30:29 yep!.. it's been years since last time i heard that! Jul 26 16:32:07 4.15.0-rc2+ Jul 26 16:32:08 hrm Jul 26 16:32:15 i should also update the kernel in that laptop Jul 26 16:32:43 anyway, mixed technology drives were strange but in the deep there was a good idea Jul 26 16:33:31 not necessarily, they probably suffer from both techs bugs Jul 26 16:36:30 it's hard to say i don't have sufficient failure/success numbers but have a laptop with only 1 ssd... is a pain. Only 1 hdd, is a bit slow Jul 26 16:37:10 optical bay adapter for 2nd hdd? Jul 26 16:37:31 then if there is one.. Jul 26 16:37:58 yeah, i've learned today that lenove is still killing thinkpads quality Jul 26 16:38:07 only t430 has ultrabay Jul 26 16:38:23 otherwise last ones were t500/t400 Jul 26 16:40:14 mine T410 is still a reference but the x220 is always on Jul 26 16:40:56 you can go ghetto-drive-with-velcro-on-the-back-of-lcd-with-usb-adapter way Jul 26 16:41:36 or msata+hdd ;) ...now i have to run. bbl Jul 26 16:41:44 :) Jul 26 19:55:57 re: https://maemo.org/packages/view/otp/ Jul 26 19:56:36 this actually works fine for HOTP/TOTP ... only trick is to change the key from Base32 to Hex Jul 26 19:56:52 https://github.com/jwhitbeck/otpn900/issues/1 Jul 26 21:48:16 KotCzarny: s/lcd/display/ because at least one ThinkPad model has an LED display instead of an LCD? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Jul 27 03:00:01 2018
