Does anyone currently use an LCD with their cubieboards? Could you please tell me which one you're using? I'm after an LCD to use with my cubieboard that there already exists a framebuffer driver for / support is in hardware because I want to hack up a portable game console
<hno>
I do not use an LCD, but it's quite flexible in what LCDs to support.
<hno>
supporting both TTL & LVDS, and many different resolutions.
<lunra>
Thanks :)

I am having issues after trying to flash my cubieboard. Tried the images from the download page on the cubieboard site using Phoenix Card. It seems to run the flash cycle. After loading rel1 it starts, but runs only few seconds and it dies using the rel2.2 xbmc it stays running, but the screen stays black. Any advice please?

is uboot the only option?
<Satorin>
How many mA should I throw at a Cubieboard when having a SATA disk attached?
<Satorin>
I'm thinking about throwing one in a server rack, but I've only got 1A.
<Satorin>
Can't afford to upgrade. :(
<lxsameer>
Satorin: i think you will need 2A
<lxsameer>
!ls
<lxsameer>
!power-specs
<lxsameer>
!expl power-spec
<Satorin>
2A, that's quite a lot...
<Satorin>
mhm.
<lxsameer>
!expl power-specs
<CubieFAQ>
power-specs: The Cubieboard requires a regulated 5V DC, 2A power supply with a 4.0mm (external diameter) x 1.7mm (internal diameter) barrel plug. A 500mA supply is sufficient if you do not attach a SATA hard disk to the Cubieboard. Please note that if you then connect USB peripherals to your Cubieboard, then these may require more power than the standard 500mA that a PC USB port provides.
<Satorin>
I see, I see.
<Satorin>
500mA is okay.
<Satorin>
But of course I need a disk...
<lxsameer>
Satorin: then you need 2A
<lxsameer>
Satorin: i use a PSP PSU
<lxsameer>
Satorin: it's only 3$
<Satorin>
I see. Thanks for the info.
<lxsameer>
Satorin: ;)
<rm>
try with 1A
<rm>
but it's likely barely enough
<rm>
also many PSUs are overrated
<rm>
so it's always good to have a headroom
<Satorin>
I see. Might give that a go... then again, you're right on the latter. (I figured that out the harsh way. ^^;)
<Satorin>
Thanks again.

i ordered one of those generic psp power adapters
<\\Mr_C\\>
they dont work
<\\Mr_C\\>
make sure its an oem
CoolePascal has left #cubieboard ["Leaving"]
<\\Mr_C\\>
the generic's connector is slightly to big, you gotta force it in, plus the cubie shuts down after about 30 seconds
<\\Mr_C\\>
the oem adapter does work
<\\Mr_C\\>
if it doesnt say oem, i wouldnt get it
<lxsameer>
\\Mr_C\\: pem ?
<lxsameer>
*oem ?
<lxsameer>
\\Mr_C\\: what is oem ?
<\\Mr_C\\>
an original psp plug
<\\Mr_C\\>
from sony
tinti has joined #cubieboard
<lxsameer>
\\Mr_C\\: how can i make sure that mine is original ?
<\\Mr_C\\>
this generic replacement i got last week hard to get the plug in
<\\Mr_C\\>
plus the cubie would shutdown after 30 seconds or less
<lxsameer>
\\Mr_C\\: no mine is easy to plug
<\\Mr_C\\>
does it say sont on the plastic
<\\Mr_C\\>
does it say sony on the plastic
<lxsameer>
\\Mr_C\\: yeah and it made in philippines
<\\Mr_C\\>
then thats an original
<\\Mr_C\\>
OEM
<\\Mr_C\\>
original equipment manufacturer
<lxsameer>
\\Mr_C\\: thanks god, here in Iran you have low chance to get original stuff
<\\Mr_C\\>
i have both
<\\Mr_C\\>
the sony one and the generic
<\\Mr_C\\>
and the generis doesnt work right
<\\Mr_C\\>
it does read 5 volts
<\\Mr_C\\>
but the cubie doesnt like it
<\\Mr_C\\>
now i did complain to the seller on ebay and they said they sent another one, we wil see, it could be the adapter, but i doubt it since it reads 5 volts and they claim there is a lower failure rate
<lxsameer>
\\Mr_C\\: sorry i did not understand last 2 sentences
<\\Mr_C\\>
which?
<lxsameer>
\\Mr_C\\: the one about voltage
<\\Mr_C\\>
oh
<\\Mr_C\\>
i have both, the sony one and the generic
<\\Mr_C\\>
and the generis doesnt work right, it does read 5 volts...but the cubie doesnt like it
<\\Mr_C\\>
generis=generic

<lxsameer>
\\Mr_C\\: yeah
<lxsameer>
\\Mr_C\\: i think after all it was a fake one

Anyone here using the Cubieboard as a web/mail server?
<Satorin>
I'm seriously considering it seeing as it's cheap.
<Satorin>
And the specs seem suitable.

Currently I'm running my web- and mailserver on a VPS, but the provider gets DDoSed all the time and the whole node goes down.
<Satorin>
So I'm thinking about placing my own hardware in a colocation center. Point is, I don't have that large of a budget.
<Satorin>
But I have some custom needs, shared hosting is no option...
<Satorin>
so meh.

a cubie won't be very well fit to deal with a DoS

DDoS*
<mnemoc>
but assuming people won't attack your own server, it should work well

sudo echo x > /sys/.... is a usually mistake

no success
