Log from #neuros IRC channel

I asked about this the other day, and I've still yet to fix it. My Neuros won't mount, and reloading the hid/usb-storage modules doesn't correct this as it used to.

ncterval: fw,hw&krnl version?

[21:59]

2.25, 2.4x, and what do you mean by hw? Hardware version? USB1.1, I suppose.

[22:01]

does the neuros exhibit thee very same behaviour under earlier fw versions?

[22:01]

and yes, i meant hardware, but i'm a lazy-vowel-eater guy

[22:02]

I'm not exactly sure when it stopped working. Should I find a copy of 2.24 and try that?

[22:03]

yes please, i can forward you a copy if you don't find it

[22:03]

Would you?

[22:04]

i noticed several people complain about odd USB 1.1 behaviour on the latest official fw release, and also on my derived work from it

[22:07]

Yes, I noticed your fork at the Sourceforge page. How's work on it going?

[22:10]

humm.. currently i'm trying to make the whole thing build under Linux

[22:10]

using CCS and Wine|CrossOver Office

[22:11]

What from Windows does it need to build?

[22:12]

humm, basiccaly, the compiler, the linker and those propietary tools to sign and check the firmware image

[22:12]

*basically

[22:12]

<Yono>

hey GarBage

[22:12]

<Yono>

good to see you chatting on here again

[22:12]

sup Yono

[22:12]

<Yono>

nothing much

[22:12]

thank you man, we're on holidays here

[22:13]

and we beat your ass on tha Davis Cup ;)

[22:13]

<Seed>

let's see you beat them at baseball

[22:14]

<Yono>

lol, yes you did

[22:15]

Seed: lol, the USA team simply rocks... those guys we're playing baseball on the ceremony!

[22:15]

and our Prince and Princess standing there waiting for them... that was funny

[22:16]

*were

[22:16]

GarBage: Did you have a copy of 2.24?

[22:17]

yes, msg me your mail, i can't dcc

[22:33]

GarBage: Uh... can't mount the Neuros to downgrade the firmware...

[22:34]

funny picture

[22:34]

have you tried booting it with down+play?

[22:35]

Yes, that's what I did.

[22:39]

damn wireless keyboard...

[22:39]

he's eating more vowels than me

[22:40]

ncterval: that's a 'dilema'

[22:41]

I see. Is it just a Windows problem? I might be able to fenagle my way into some VMWare action.

[22:41]

I mean a Linux one.

[22:42]

there are reports of windows problems to

[22:42]

*too

[22:42]

does kern.log or messages help?

[22:43]

i mean, any info on plugging?

[22:43]

Not sure... all I know is that it was working well enough at some point in the past, possibly when I was using 2.24.

[22:49]

well, do a tail -f on those files, and then plug/unplug the unit

[22:51]

It says it found a USBMS device 'at 8', with unassured integrity. So what does that mean?

[22:52]

When I try to mount it returns errors about the FAT fs.

[22:52]

bogus logical sector size 65535

[22:54]

do you have a bundle?

[22:54]

A bundle?

[22:56]

yes, with a small bapckpack

[22:56]

No, 20GB HDD.

[22:56]

ok, try to do a nand format

[22:57]

Will that erase just the stuff on the flash unit?

[22:59]

yes

[22:59]

the hdd will be kept untouched

[22:59]

Cool, you know how long multi-gig syncs are on the 1.1s.

[23:00]

hehe, yeah, i can picture it

[23:05]

Getting the same thing.

[23:06]

well, that's the essence of a dilemma

[23:07]

Yes. Could DI do anything, with it out of warranty?

[23:08]

i bet they should, i think it was their faulty firmware

[23:08]

Alright, I'll give them a call. I need info on replacing the headphone jack, while I'm at it.

[23:09]

i just wanted to test it myself on a old unit, but i don't have one

[23:09]

The firmware, or replacing the jack?

[23:10]

that firmware issue, it was very common lately on 1.1 units

[23:10]

Wow, they closed six minutes ago...

[23:10]

Oh, wait, an hour and six.

[23:11]

err... don't you guys have sunday holidays there or something?

[23:14]

Yes, well that, too. The message said they close at 5, which is why I was thinking that.

[23:15]

i see

[23:18]

Thanks for the help. If they tell me anything useful, I'll update you.
