12:24 AM rue_: oh, how about openscad?
12:24 AM zhanx: installing now
12:25 AM rue_: ok, shallI keep goin?
12:25 AM zhanx: sure
12:25 AM zhanx: 50/50 its installed
12:25 AM zhanx: so list them
12:25 AM rue_: arduino is the last one
12:25 AM zhanx: installed already
12:26 AM zhanx: 1.6.5 unless i need to upgrade
12:26 AM rue_: ok
12:26 AM rue_: https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin
12:26 AM rue_: we neet to set up the config
12:26 AM zhanx: cloning
12:27 AM zhanx: lol git is not installed one sec
12:27 AM rue_: hahahaha
12:27 AM zhanx: ok cloning now
12:28 AM zhanx: i was like what? no git?
12:28 AM rue_: when your ready, find Configuration.h
12:28 AM zhanx: oh wait fresh install for this 3d printer
12:28 AM rue_: ?
12:29 AM zhanx: ok give it 4 minutes, on new all in on pc for the 3d printer
12:29 AM zhanx: its new used
12:29 AM rue_: I'm just looking to see if I even know what I'm doingw itht he new marlin version
12:29 AM zhanx: ok cloned
12:30 AM rue_: when your ready, find Configuration.h
12:31 AM zhanx: found it
12:31 AM zhanx: its in Marlin/Marlin
12:31 AM rue_: ok, this goes strange with arudino when you do it, cause ALL of marlin is a libarary you import and then compile and upload, I suggest we just tweek configureation.h for now
12:31 AM zhanx: k
12:31 AM rue_: find the baud rate, dial it down to 115200
12:32 AM zhanx: next?
12:33 AM rue_: I'm looking for my map :) maybe browse it for a few mins...
12:33 AM rue_: /#define CUSTOM_MACHINE_NAME "3D Printer"
12:33 AM rue_: you might want to use that if you ever have more than one machine
12:33 AM rue_: but it dosn't really come up anywhere
12:34 AM rue_: #define DEFAULT_NOMINAL_FILAMENT_DIA 3.0 but I suggest 1.75
12:34 AM zhanx: can't change that till i get filament really
12:35 AM rue_: meh
12:35 AM zhanx: ok changed
12:35 AM zhanx: nano is a bit slower to search in
12:36 AM rue_: I think your want to dial the accelerations down to about 300 (from 3000)
12:37 AM rue_: I think everything else is tweek-on-build
12:37 AM rue_: so, it might be good to see if arduino will take and compile it
12:37 AM zhanx: k
12:37 AM zhanx: changed
12:38 AM zhanx: brb
12:38 AM zhanx: i am updating the arduino now. my version was too old
12:39 AM rue_: wtf would they have skew correction for? just adjust the damn machine to be square...
12:39 AM zhanx: see rue_ its better when the other person knows computers
12:41 AM rue_: ok, they added a lot of crazy stuff, but ok
12:41 AM zhanx: slow down that 8000 probe for xy
12:41 AM zhanx: like wow fast
12:42 AM rue_: usually no probe
12:42 AM rue_: there are stubs for a lot of things we dont have
12:42 AM zhanx: i did it just in case i add one and forget
12:42 AM rue_: :)
12:42 AM zhanx: slam boot kills 3d printer
12:43 AM * rue_ shakes head
12:45 AM zhanx: brb #error "Marlin requires C++11 support (gcc >= 4.7, Arduino IDE
12:45 AM zhanx: hmm gcc is at that version
12:46 AM rue_bed: ?
12:46 AM rue_bed: no
12:46 AM rue_bed: use arduino
12:47 AM rue_bed: iirc you load it as a library,
12:47 AM rue_bed: when you load the ino its a stub that just uses arduino to wrap the compilation
12:47 AM rue_bed: ?
12:47 AM rue_bed: there is a howto, what I know could have changed
12:47 AM zhanx: oh
12:48 AM rue_bed: it did fight me EVERY time
12:48 AM rue_bed: to the point a hardware change was preffered over a re-flash
12:48 AM zhanx: i loaded the ino
12:48 AM rue_bed: "ITS OK, I'LL JUST CHANGE THE HARDWARE"
12:49 AM rue_bed: did you load something as a library
12:49 AM rue_bed: did it come with a readme?
12:49 AM zhanx: no and i will look
12:53 AM rue_bed: http://marlinfw.org/docs/basics/install.html
12:53 AM rue_bed: I'm just reading now
12:53 AM rue_bed: I'm not sure what version I'm using on my printers
12:56 AM rue_bed: they changed how it works
12:56 AM rue_bed: sounds easier now
12:57 AM rue_bed: ok, you want to work on getting it to verify/compile?
01:07 AM zhanx: tomorrow
