| [00:23] | <JoeBorn> | meeting on the dev boards wed the 18th at 8:30pm CST |
| [01:40] | <JoeBorn> | another thrilling night on the 'ol #neuros channel. |
| [01:40] | <Eagle_Fire> | hello |
| [01:41] | <Eagle_Fire> | just finished work on my cell phone router |
| [01:42] | <Eagle_Fire> | total plug and play now |
| [01:45] | <JoeBorn> | gprs? |
| [01:45] | <JoeBorn> | what cell phone? |
| [01:45] | <JoeBorn> | sorry if I'm behind in the discussion. |
| [01:46] | <Eagle_Fire> | nokia 3220 |
| [01:46] | <Eagle_Fire> | it's the one with the awesome lights |
| [01:46] | <JoeBorn> | so how does it work? |
| [01:46] | <Eagle_Fire> | the phone supports gprs using a special usb-to-serial cable |
| [01:47] | <JoeBorn> | oic, what speed does it connect? |
| [01:47] | <Eagle_Fire> | 7kb/s ish |
| [01:47] | <JoeBorn> | what wireless service? |
| [01:47] | <Eagle_Fire> | t-mobile |
| [01:47] | <Eagle_Fire> | the cheap $6/mo service |
| [01:47] | <JoeBorn> | 7kb?!? |
| [01:47] | <JoeBorn> | holy smokes! |
| [01:48] | <JoeBorn> | what are you planning on using it for? |
| [01:48] | <Eagle_Fire> | mobile office kinda stuffs |
| [01:48] | <Eagle_Fire> | my bro in law will love it |
| [01:48] | <Eagle_Fire> | i'll likely make a copy for him |
| [01:48] | <JoeBorn> | have any pictures? |
| [01:49] | <Eagle_Fire> | not yet |
| [01:49] | <Eagle_Fire> | there's not a lot of pretty to it anyway |
| [01:49] | <Eagle_Fire> | just a motorola wr850g with a cable sticking out of it |
| [01:49] | <JoeBorn> | well, it would just bring it to life with a picture. |
| [01:49] | <Eagle_Fire> | i suppose the insides are worth looking at but it's just wires every which way |
| [01:49] | <Eagle_Fire> | i'll photo some tomorrow |
| [01:50] | <JoeBorn> | you should do it with an EVDO phone, then you'd really have something. |
| [01:50] | <JoeBorn> | I have an 815E that can connect at 300kbps |
| [01:51] | <JoeBorn> | could you get that to work? |
| [01:51] | <Eagle_Fire> | send me one and i'll see what i can do |
| [01:51] | <Eagle_Fire> | what does the connection cable look like, or is it bt |
| [01:51] | <JoeBorn> | bt or USB |
| [01:52] | <JoeBorn> | I use USB |
| [01:52] | <Eagle_Fire> | does the usb come up as a serial port |
| [01:52] | <Eagle_Fire> | how do you connect to the internet with it |
| [01:52] | <JoeBorn> | USB to cell phone |
| [01:52] | <JoeBorn> | right, COM4 |
| [01:52] | <JoeBorn> | or something like that. |
| [01:53] | <Eagle_Fire> | then yes, i could do it |
| [01:53] | <JoeBorn> | but how would you connect the USB to the router? |
| [01:53] | <JoeBorn> | it's not really USB? |
| [01:53] | <Eagle_Fire> | it is |
| [01:54] | <Eagle_Fire> | but the way i did it with mine is jacked it up so i got the serial lines after the usb->serial converter |
| [01:54] | <Eagle_Fire> | otherwise i can use a $40 netgear wgt634u which does have usb |
| [01:54] | <JoeBorn> | usb host? |
| [01:54] | <Eagle_Fire> | yeah |
| [01:55] | <Eagle_Fire> | for connecting hard drives, webcams, etc |
| [01:55] | <JoeBorn> | i'll be darned, that's neat. |
| [01:55] | <Eagle_Fire> | gee golly yess |
| [01:55] | <JoeBorn> | anyway, i'd rather have you hacking on the dev boards anyway. |
| [01:55] | <Eagle_Fire> | me too, but you know how that is |
| [01:55] | <JoeBorn> | well, you know I'm from the midwest, we're simple folks around these parts. |
| [01:56] | <JoeBorn> | anyway, night-time all. |
| [01:56] | <Eagle_Fire> | at this point it wouldn't be much time at all |
| [01:56] | <Eagle_Fire> | since all the software is done... just hardware to mess with |
| [01:56] | <Eagle_Fire> | good night joe |
| [01:56] | <JoeBorn> | huh? well, we'll have to talk about it, it's not an expensive phone, but I can' t be without my phone for a week. |
| [01:56] | <JoeBorn> | anyway, night all. |
| [08:49] | <Stevoid17> | hi |
| [17:32] | <nerochiaro> | this is weird... for some reason i can mount my neuros only as read only |
| [17:32] | <nerochiaro> | used to work until yesterday |
| [17:35] | <nerochiaro> | hmm, nevermind. reconnected and it worked again. hopefully it was just a glitch. |
| [18:06] | <Eagle_Fire> | my 442 has a broken-ness to it |
| [18:12] | <Eagle_Fire> | won't register as a USB HD any more :( |
| [18:12] | <Eagle_Fire> | works fine otherwise |
| [18:19] | <nerochiaro> | Eagle_Fire: tried already the usual fomatting voodoos ? |
| [18:20] | <Eagle_Fire> | the usualy what now? |
| [18:21] | <Eagle_Fire> | tried reflashing the firmware, resetting to default settings |
| [18:21] | <nerochiaro> | formatting the NAND, and if nothing else works formatting the disk |
| [18:22] | <nerochiaro> | of course it's hdd format is kind of extreme measure. but still better than not being able to access it at all |
| [18:24] | <Eagle_Fire> | how do i format either |
| [18:24] | <Eagle_Fire> | there are no options on the neuros |
| [18:24] | <nerochiaro> | i officially need sleep. i didn't read "442" and i thought you were talking about a N2 |
| [18:24] | <Eagle_Fire> | *442 |
| [18:24] | <nerochiaro> | i'm going to provide for my sleep needs right now. sorry for the mistake. and good luck |
| [18:25] | <Eagle_Fire> | enjoy |
| [18:25] | <nerochiaro> | same to your for your next nap. bye |
| [18:25] | <Eagle_Fire> | latars |
| [23:07] | <JoeBorn> | My new years resolution is going to be to drink less coffee. |
| [23:10] | <Eagle_Fire> | wouldn't it have been 17 days ago |
| [23:11] | <Eagle_Fire> | hey, it ends up i might have actually broken my 442 when i dissassembled it |
| [23:11] | <Eagle_Fire> | everything works great except it won't recognize as a USB hard drive any more |
| [23:30] | <JoeBorn> | well, I needed to get through CES :) |
| [23:30] | <JoeBorn> | have you tried it on other PCs? |
| [23:33] | <Eagle_Fire> | yeah, three |
| [23:33] | <Eagle_Fire> | different cables |
| [23:34] | <Eagle_Fire> | reflashed the firmware, reset to default settings |
| [23:34] | <Eagle_Fire> | what's odd is that it makes the "device connected" noise but no volume shows up, and 12 seconds later it makes the "disconnected" noise |
| [23:34] | <Eagle_Fire> | this weekend i'm going to plug it into a linux system to get a little more information about how it's behaving |
| [23:35] | <JoeBorn> | ok, well let us know, obviously we'll take care of you. |
| [23:35] | <Eagle_Fire> | thanks |
| [23:35] | <Eagle_Fire> | will do |
| [23:35] | <Eagle_Fire> | i don't drink coffee at all, manage to stay awake just fine |
| [23:47] | <JoeBorn> | awake is not the problem, being sharp, altert |
| [23:47] | <Eagle_Fire> | that's just a discipline thing |
| [23:47] | <JoeBorn> | see, like me alert with two t's, you can't do that without a lot of coffee |
| [23:47] | <Eagle_Fire> | and i suppose an emotional commitment thing |
| [23:47] | <JoeBorn> | well, you are young too. |
| [23:48] | <JoeBorn> | soon you will be old and decrepit like me, and you will need the crutch of coffee. |
| [23:48] | <Eagle_Fire> | yay |
| [23:48] | <JoeBorn> | definately something to look forward to! |
| [23:51] | <Eagle_Fire> | i'm interested... what is a typical day like for the CEO of Neuros Technology |
| [23:51] | <JoeBorn> | ok, night all. remember tomorrow we are having an IRC meeting on the phantom dev boards |
| [23:51] | <Eagle_Fire> | damn |
| [23:51] | <JoeBorn> | whew! Saved by the bell. |
| [23:51] | <Eagle_Fire> | i'll get you sometime |
| [23:51] | <JoeBorn> | I'll answer that question next time I'm here. |
| [23:51] | * Eagle_Fire shakes his fist | |
| [23:52] | * JoeBorn trembles | |
| [23:52] | <JoeBorn> | ok, later all. |
| [23:52] | <Eagle_Fire> | bye |
