Sep 09 05:29:35 Geek Dawg. :-) Sep 09 05:29:58 <[g2]> Ok so I'll probably get boards next week and JTAG is going to be a lot more important :) Sep 09 05:30:07 ok Sep 09 05:30:22 <[g2]> Some send me a Raven and a NIOS kit Sep 09 05:30:31 <[g2]> someone Sep 09 05:30:33 Me too Sep 09 05:30:44 <[g2]> a NIOS kit or Raven ? Sep 09 05:30:48 Ye Sep 09 05:30:49 s Sep 09 05:31:05 <[g2]> which one ? Sep 09 05:31:13 Yep! Sep 09 05:31:14 :-) Sep 09 05:31:57 <[g2]> You got a NIOS kit and a Raven ? Sep 09 05:31:57 Does the raven have a xscale capability? Sep 09 05:32:13 Oh, did you say "someone SEND me a...." Sep 09 05:32:16 or Sep 09 05:32:22 "Someone SENT me a...." ? Sep 09 05:32:38 <[g2]> Someone sent me Sep 09 05:32:45 <[g2]> sorry Sep 09 05:33:11 <[g2]> it's the ARM version with the 20-pin JTAG connector Sep 09 05:33:35 oh. Bummers. I was hoping someone would SENDme the items. :-) Sep 09 05:34:04 <[g2]> that is not totally out the of realm of possibilities Sep 09 05:34:27 <[g2]> I think this person had a couple NIOS kits laying around Sep 09 05:34:38 <[g2]> but I wasn't going to be too greedy :) Sep 09 05:35:07 <[g2]> I firgure I'm a *real* open source developer now cause ppl are sending me free hw Sep 09 05:35:12 <[g2]> figure Sep 09 05:35:21 <[g2]> :) Sep 09 05:35:23 I'm a fake developer cus I dont know what I'm doing Sep 09 05:35:42 <[g2]> well you sure fool me :) Sep 09 05:36:05 I'm a good faker Sep 09 05:37:31 <[g2]> So the RV082 might make a nice compile box for Debian BE Sep 09 05:37:47 <[g2]> it's got a 533 and 3 real ethernet ports Sep 09 05:37:57 <[g2]> 2 real + 1 into the 8-port hub Sep 09 05:38:21 I was advocating that for a while until lennert pointed out the swap race issue. Sep 09 05:38:49 <[g2]> swap race ? Sep 09 05:39:18 <[g2]> between the swap device and ethernet ? Sep 09 05:41:52 <[g2]> dyoung I woundn't imagine the swap being any different than going to disk Sep 09 05:42:23 <[g2]> infact, I think the network is even faster than disk access on the slug, certainly faster than my microdrive Sep 09 05:43:18 it was. Sep 09 05:43:37 you need to ask lennert about it. Sep 09 05:43:43 <[g2]> ok thx Sep 09 05:44:01 he used the trick described, and ran into a case where it couldnt swap. Sep 09 05:44:16 somehting about a race for resources. Sep 09 05:44:29 <[g2]> ok I'll ask him **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Sep 10 02:59:56 2005
