The sections can now be renamed and deleted. http://qi-hw.com/p/gmenu2x/6cb7ce1 2011-04-14 11:19 hi guys 2011-04-14 11:19 does nanonote have /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq ? 2011-04-14 13:09 Ayla: root@BenNanoNote:/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0# ls 2011-04-14 13:09 root@BenNanoNote:/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0# 2011-04-14 13:09 Ayla: ^ no. that folder is empty 2011-04-14 13:32 ah. 2011-04-14 13:32 :( 2011-04-14 13:36 Ayla: hello, i saw you worked on suspend to ram in the nanonote by waking up from time to time, how can it be used ? 2011-04-14 13:38 I did work on suspend, but not for nanonote 2011-04-14 13:38 it would be possible to make suspend to RAM work in nanonote using that technic 2011-04-14 13:38 but it involves kernel hacking i guess 2011-04-14 13:39 no, you could do it in user space 2011-04-14 13:39 how ? there's no wakealarm file on nanonote 2011-04-14 13:39 you'd need my RTC patch, I think it has been merged in mainline now 2011-04-14 13:39 it enables the alarm for jz4740 2011-04-14 13:40 then the pattern is simple: 2011-04-14 13:40 program an alarm for in 1 hour, and suspend 2011-04-14 13:40 ok 2011-04-14 13:40 when resuming, check if the power button (that should be configured as a wake event) is pressed 2011-04-14 13:41 if it is not, return to step 1 :) 2011-04-14 13:41 but I have the latest version of openwrt for the nanonote, and there's no such file 2011-04-14 13:42 yeah, I don't know if they use the 2.6.39 kernel 2011-04-14 13:42 2.6.32 here 2011-04-14 13:43 it's been merged in 2.6.39 2011-04-14 13:44 ok 2011-04-14 13:44 i'll look into it, thaks for your reply :) 2011-04-14 13:45 have fun :) 2011-04-14 13:46 you could disable the backlight before the first suspend, so that the screen won't flash when the nanonote wakes up for a second 2011-04-14 13:49 yeah i do that already 2011-04-14 13:50 I remember that under debian it used to work well :/ 2011-04-14 17:41 [commit] Ayla: On the skin menu, the ALTLEFT/ALTRIGHT buttons will now respectively decrease/increase the ARGB values by 10. http://qi-hw.com/p/gmenu2x/38a83dd 2011-04-14 17:52 kristianpaul http://diydrones.com/ does not seem to have a wiki or source repository however they have a forum where you might ask for source. they seem like a friendly and very open group. ding amazing stuff with DIY drones 2011-04-14 18:41 rjeffries in the drone market there is only very little open source 2011-04-14 18:41 mostly there are commercial assholes who havent understood the licenses they sometimes use in wording, but not reality 2011-04-14 18:42 roh I think that will change. the amateur UAV/drone hardware designs are generally (not always) very open 2011-04-14 18:42 an to be fair.. i havent seen any foss drone do spectacular stuff... mostly they are fully loaded standing in the air 2011-04-14 18:43 rjeffries: nope. the problem is a)money and b) time. these two are usually quite fast filled by commercial interrest as soon as one of the foss guys learns something the rest doesnt know yet. 2011-04-14 18:44 btw.. drones are one of the most inefficient flight-toys ever. thus it will stay a toy without changing the concept to something like the french paparrazi project (mini glider) 2011-04-14 18:44 roh you need to get out more. (just kidding) I've watced videos of really excellent drone flights that exhgibit very good autonomous f;ight contro; 2011-04-14 18:45 rjeffries: i was on motodrone event already.... 2011-04-14 18:45 rjeffries: i know the technology they use. and i've seen sources. the commercial stuff is useable. the free stuff cannot even properly fill the easy challenges the motodrone people set up as soon as there is a little wind. 2011-04-14 18:46 last time they changed the challenges to happen inside a huge bunker hall to have less wind, and give some of the drones a chance... not very promising. 2011-04-14 18:46 roh do you see the challenge as mainly software or also hardware 2011-04-14 18:46 rjeffries: people. 2011-04-14 18:47 you must watch different videos than I do, roh 2011-04-14 18:47 its a question of mindset. 2011-04-14 18:47 in any case I am not in the DIY drone field I watch from teh sidelines 2011-04-14 18:47 the US government is getting rather nervous and may shut it all down 2011-04-14 18:48 due to the "T" word and you know what I mean 2011-04-14 18:48 new topic 2011-04-14 18:48 do you have access to a 3D printer (I thin?) 2011-04-14 18:49 think 2011-04-14 18:53 us gov i dont give a shit. 2011-04-14 18:53 ;) 2011-04-14 18:53 legally its not allowed to run a drone without remote and flight on sight.. autnomous isnt a concept which is possible in the legal system afaik 2011-04-14 18:54 thats something the insurance guys need to think about (who is responsible for things a autonomous thing did?) 2011-04-14 18:54 similar with responsibility and such for kids ;) 2011-04-14 18:54 we ha ve a 3d printhead for the mill 2011-04-14 18:54 but its not 'ready' yet 2011-04-14 18:56 also we are currently moving the whole lab 2011-04-14 18:56 need to run now too.. do some measurements 2011-04-14 20:20 if you are interested in Internet of Things, as I am, this book chapter may be unformative" 2011-04-14 20:20 http://www.linkedin.com/redirect?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Espringer%2Ecom%2Fcda%2Fcontent%2Fdocument%2Fcda_downloaddocument%2F9783642191565-c1%2Epdf%3FSGWID%3D0-0-45-1112641-p174102062&urlhash=CU95&_t=tracking_anet 2011-04-14 23:25 rjeffries: that EPCglobal sounds scary. UML, XML, ... they should have stopped at "open" ;-) 2011-04-14 23:36 not a lot of firms active in fundamental RFID stuff is my reading of this table" http://www.gs1.org/epcglobal/standards/mdid 2011-04-14 23:50 fuck. I won't be able to solder a single CP2102 in my entire life 2011-04-14 23:50 they all fail. 5 or 6 already 2011-04-14 23:57 whitequark: how do they fail ? do they just now work or can you detect problems, such as missing contacts or shorts ? 2011-04-14 23:57 s/now/not/ 2011-04-14 23:58 wpwrak: well, if I use 40/60 soldering paste with RMA, they just do not even try to enumerate (via internal pullup) 2011-04-14 23:58 if I use TT flux-gel (yes, that active one with interesting features), they work... a bit 2011-04-14 23:59 I mean, they sorta work within a temperature interval of around 120-140 deg. C 2011-04-14 23:59 and not outside it. 2011-04-14 23:59 by 'work' I mean that they are enumerated, show in lsusb, I may send some chars etc. 2011-04-14 23:59 rjeffries: the usual suspects when it comes to chip makers, no ?
