[06:05:08] <Timmy> where can I find a table of diode partcode + their electronic characteristics?
[10:22:49] <phinxy> Im trying to use two mixed fonts in u8glib display library but as soon as i add another font with setFont then set it back to original one everything messes up
[12:07:00] <rue_mohr2> Timmy, digikey
[12:07:18] <rue_mohr2> phinxy, lcd?
[12:07:27] <megal0maniac_afk> rue_mohr2: Are you better yet?
[12:07:39] <rue_mohr2> hell no!
[12:07:53] <rue_mohr2> I was digging thru the medicine cabinet
[12:08:08] <rue_mohr2> in 2010 I got a nasal anti-infalamitory
[12:08:13] <rue_mohr2> in 2012 I got a nasal anti-infalamitory
[12:08:19] <rue_mohr2> its 2014 ...
[12:08:40] <rue_mohr2> I think they are not being creative with the vlu viruses their releasing
[12:08:44] <rue_mohr2> flu
[12:09:38] <megal0maniac> Hmph. I guess it's like fuel. You don't need to market it
[12:09:58] <phinxy> rue_mohr2, its a OLED. How would you include a icon from another font?
[12:10:07] <rue_mohr2> its a vicimless crime when the government buys the vaccines and hands them out free
[12:10:35] <megal0maniac> Nice government you've got there
[12:10:42] <rue_mohr2> phinxy, if its what I think it is, you cant, there isn't enough dynamic stuff in it
[12:10:56] <rue_mohr2> no free vaccines in the usa?
[12:11:18] <megal0maniac> No idea. Never lived there
[12:11:26] <phinxy> rue_mohr2 i kinda can get it to work. but the icon gets placed in the wrong place and some other weird stuff comes with it
[12:11:33] <rue_mohr2> I do wish you people would stop country-hopping so much
[12:11:45] <megal0maniac> rue_mohr2: It's all in your mind :)
[12:11:50] <megal0maniac> South Africa
[12:11:57] <megal0maniac> Along with RikusW
[12:12:13] <rue_mohr2> oh, I thnk in africa you just die...
[12:12:23] <megal0maniac> Something like that
[12:12:41] <rue_mohr2> phinxy, it might help if you show us a link to the display your using
[12:12:45] <megal0maniac> Actually I think you can get free stuff, but only if you're poor enough to need it. And then you wait
[12:13:39] <rue_mohr2> poor as in only 1 cow to pay with?
[12:13:54] <rue_mohr2> tho I'm sure the society is diverse
[12:14:17] <megal0maniac> Extremely
[12:14:19] <phinxy> rue_mohr2 it really shouldnt. since it works the same way on all displays
[12:14:51] <rue_mohr2> phinxy, look, the quality of your help is gonna go up alot if you show us what damed display your using
[12:15:19] <rue_mohr2> hd447880 displays can only use 1 character set with a max of 8 unique characters
[12:15:29] <phinxy> its a 96x96 matrix
[12:15:43] <rue_mohr2> phinxy, it might help if you show us a link to the display your using
[12:15:44] <rue_mohr2> phinxy, it might help if you show us a link to the display your using
[12:15:44] <rue_mohr2> phinxy, it might help if you show us a link to the display your using
[12:15:44] <rue_mohr2> phinxy, it might help if you show us a link to the display your using
[12:15:49] <phinxy> http://garden.seeedstudio.com/images/8/82/SSD1327_datasheet.pdf
[12:15:53] <phinxy> i was looking..
[12:16:02] <phinxy> but the datasheet doesnt matter
[12:16:09] <phinxy> since i cant write perfectly fine to it. its the library
[12:16:19] <rue_mohr2> well then link the library
[12:16:38] <phinxy> https://code.google.com/p/u8glib/
[12:19:00] <rue_mohr2> arg, I have to go hang upside down for a while
[15:04:05] <technodict> anyone to help ?
[15:04:33] <technodict> ...---...
[15:13:33] <technodict> ?
[15:29:55] <Lambda-Aurigae> technodict, depends..what's your problem?
[15:30:32] <technodict> well i am a beginner to avr
[15:30:49] <technodict> trying to run this usbasp programmer
[15:30:53] <technodict> i am using ubuntu
[15:31:35] <technodict> can you help me set it up?
[15:34:31] <Lambda-Aurigae> is usbasp even current?
[15:34:35] <Lambda-Aurigae> most people use avrdude.
[15:34:51] <Lambda-Aurigae> oh, wait.
[15:34:53] <technodict> it says usbisp for avr studio on the programmer
[15:34:54] <Lambda-Aurigae> usbasp is the hardware.
[15:34:58] <technodict> yup
[15:35:13] <technodict> its based on this design http://www.fischl.de/usbasp/
[15:35:26] <Lambda-Aurigae> yeah..one of those cheapy vusb based programmers that work on only about 80% of computers.
[15:35:36] <Lambda-Aurigae> I was thinking of uisp.
[15:35:49] <Lambda-Aurigae> so, what is there to setup?
[15:35:55] <Lambda-Aurigae> again, use avrdude on linux.
[15:36:01] <technodict> this one evn has an ftdi chip on board
[15:36:55] <Lambda-Aurigae> http://www.avrfreaks.net/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=printview&t=83748
[15:37:03] <technodict> omkar@TechnodicT:~$ avrdude -c usbasp -p t2313
[15:37:03] <technodict> avrdude: error: could not find USB device "USBasp" with vid=0x16c0 pid=0x5dc
[15:37:04] <technodict> avrdude done. Thank you.
[15:37:17] <technodict> this is the eror i get
[15:38:20] <Lambda-Aurigae> and, does your particular usbasp have that vid and pid?
[15:38:31] <technodict> dunno
[15:38:41] <Lambda-Aurigae> run lsusb and find out.
[15:38:59] <technodict> omkar@TechnodicT:~$ lsusb

[15:39:01] <technodict> Bus 001 Device 007: ID 0403:6001 Future Technology Devices International, Ltd FT232 USB-Serial (UART) IC
[15:39:01] <technodict> omkar@TechnodicT:~$
[15:40:21] <Lambda-Aurigae> well, if the ltd ft232 is your particular usbasp then no, it doesn't.
[15:40:25] <Lambda-Aurigae> so it's not a true usbasp.
[15:40:47] <technodict> so how do i proceed ?
[15:41:27] <Lambda-Aurigae> no clue...without knowing just exactly what programmer you have, no way for me to know.
[15:41:43] <technodict> what details would you require?
[15:42:07] <Lambda-Aurigae> what programmer you have.
[15:42:26] <Lambda-Aurigae> if it has an ft232 chip on it, it is NOT based on the fischl.de usbasp.
[15:42:43] <technodict> there are two ics one is atmega 8 and other is ft245
[15:42:51] <Lambda-Aurigae> because the fischl.de usbasp uses bitbanged usb software vusb to communicate.
[15:43:45] <technodict> its simalar to fischl.de but with that ftdi ic
[15:45:25] <Lambda-Aurigae> not similar at all if it uses the ftdi chip.
[15:45:36] <Lambda-Aurigae> or at least, not similar enough for avrdude to recognize it.
[15:46:04] <technodict> is the ftdi to write the initial firmware to the atmega8 ?
[15:46:11] <Lambda-Aurigae> no clue.
[15:46:12] <technodict> lol
[15:46:19] <technodict> ohk
[15:46:21] <Lambda-Aurigae> without seeing software and/or schematic on the programmer, no way to know.
[15:46:47] <Lambda-Aurigae> unless someone else here has the same programmer, you might have to contact the maker to find out what it is supposed to be used as.
[15:47:02] <Lambda-Aurigae> and, I gotta go do some work.
[15:47:26] <technodict> sure thanks for your help anyways ! :)
[16:07:45] <hjohnson> http://gerblook.org/pcb/rYpkewT4f4N7cs5eFngk8J#front ok I keep adding more and more to this... I don't think I can squeeze much more on the bord :)
[16:08:03] <Lambda-Aurigae> ok, back for a bit.
[16:09:10] <Lambda-Aurigae> lots of stuff.
[16:09:15] <Lambda-Aurigae> no clue what it is though.
[16:09:22] <Tom_itx> what's it gonna do?
[16:09:36] <Lambda-Aurigae> he is gonna blink an LED...real fast, remotely!
[16:11:33] <hjohnson> lol
[16:12:00] <hjohnson> it's to interchange data between different electronics on my boat, monitor the ship's batteries, send out telemetry and weather data via GPRS and/or Satellite
[16:12:21] <hjohnson> also provide instrument data and control from below decks
[16:12:28] <Tom_itx> 2 or more layer?
[16:12:57] <hjohnson> 4 layer
[16:17:23] <hjohnson> in the end, only 4 I/O unused on the xmega
[16:17:26] <hjohnson> which is kind of surprising
[16:17:59] <Tom_itx> add a couple more leds
[16:20:17] <Lambda-Aurigae> naa....bitbang a token ring connection with them!
[22:18:43] <braincracker> hello my friends
