10:41 AM Tom_L: windows shows Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller #2 in device manager but doesn't show the MB one
10:46 AM Tom_L: not sure how to view the mac address
10:52 AM Tom_L: after interrogation i think that's the MB one
10:52 AM Tom_L: it's assigned a working ip in windows
01:40 PM rue_bed: ifconfig -a will show mac address
01:40 PM rue_bed: windows will show it in control panel somewhere
02:02 PM rue_bed: almost 12, better get up!
03:40 PM Tom_L: ok so i just put that card in the machine i know it works in and it doesn't show up in the device manager in windows
03:40 PM Tom_L: no linux on it atm so i can't try that
03:47 PM rue_shop1: I think your card died
03:48 PM Tom_L: must have
03:49 PM Tom_L: odd, i didn't use it that much
03:49 PM Tom_L: i've got others i've kicked around for years working just fine
03:50 PM Tom_L: just not pcie which i need
03:50 PM Tom_L: figures.
04:07 PM rue_mohr: they have tiny insucots ont eh serial lines that break off easy
04:07 PM rue_mohr: inductors
04:07 PM Tom_L: it's been sitting in the pc though
04:08 PM rue_mohr: no idea
04:08 PM Tom_L: up until recently
04:08 PM Tom_L: i'll try to find another one
04:08 PM Tom_L: may be a while
04:09 PM rue_mohr: no e-waste shops around?
04:09 PM Tom_L: i dunno
04:09 PM Tom_L: everything changes around here
04:09 PM Tom_L: things that used to be aren't anymore
04:10 PM rue_mohr: MakeICT - Wichita's Makerspace ?
04:11 PM rue_mohr: Lawrence Creates Makerspace
04:11 PM rue_mohr: ?
04:11 PM Tom_L: yeah there's 2 here
04:11 PM Tom_L: never set foot in them
04:12 PM Tom_L: well i did tour one once
04:12 PM rue_mohr: I'd go ask,
04:12 PM rue_mohr: flip of the coin either they will have/know, or just be clueless
04:12 PM rue_mohr: If there are a bunch of spinning wheels, probably clueless...
04:13 PM rue_mohr: if filled with 3d printers, prolly have one around
04:33 PM Tom_L: so
04:33 PM Tom_L: you doin any better with the arm code?
06:48 PM Tom_L: checked the card and found horrible solder joints
06:48 PM Tom_L: reworked and still dead but i tested the MB one with the card and it works fine
08:28 PM rue_shop1: hmm
08:28 PM rue_shop1: I been distracted by people all day
08:31 PM Tom_L: i'm kinda surprised after looking at the board that it worked ever
08:33 PM rue_shop1: heh
08:33 PM rue_shop1: even if the kernel doesn't have a driver for it, it should come up in lspci
08:33 PM Tom_L: ok xilinx installed on debian now
08:33 PM Tom_L: i've given up on that card. it's dead
08:45 PM rue_shop1: I dont get it
08:45 PM rue_shop1: I'm sending all the right signals and its not doing its thing
08:46 PM Tom_L: maybe she's just not interested
08:46 PM Tom_L: :)
08:47 PM rue_shop1: maybe my card died too!
08:47 PM rue_shop1: I guess I need to put it back into the atmega88 circuit
08:47 PM Tom_L: oh gawd.. not another noe
08:47 PM Tom_L: one
08:48 PM rue_shop1: I should be seeing a sine wave
08:48 PM Tom_L: they predict snow this week
08:48 PM rue_shop1: it came quick eh?
08:48 PM Tom_L: i'm hoping they're wrong
08:49 PM rue_shop1: well damn
08:49 PM rue_shop1: backwards...
08:50 PM Tom_L: maybe i'll find a cheap card tomorrow
09:48 PM rue_shop1: my card works
09:49 PM rue_shop1: just not on the stm32
09:51 PM rue_shop1: wtf, its working now
09:51 PM rue_shop1: ah, till it gets init
09:52 PM Tom_L: well don't init it :D
09:52 PM rue_shop1: haha
09:52 PM Tom_L: you're breaking it
09:53 PM Tom_L: can you dump the settings prior to init?
09:53 PM rue_shop1: I did a digital capture of the avr stuff
09:53 PM rue_shop1: so I'm gonna capture the stm32 and compare
09:53 PM Tom_L: you program those with jtag
09:53 PM Tom_L: you should have some sort of debugger
09:53 PM rue_shop1: the dds is just synch serial
09:54 PM Tom_L: what's saleae tell you?
09:54 PM rue_shop1: comparing init code for a min...
09:55 PM Tom_L: i had an odd one last night too
09:55 PM rue_shop1: ?
09:55 PM Tom_L: edited lightdm.conf for user login
09:56 PM Tom_L: it wouldn't work so we compared it with another working one
09:56 PM Tom_L: found to be identical
09:56 PM Tom_L: copied the working one and now it works
09:56 PM rue_shop1: whitespace thing?
09:56 PM Tom_L: no clue
09:56 PM rue_shop1: owner/permission?
09:56 PM rue_shop1: huh
09:56 PM Tom_L: mine was a fresh install file
09:57 PM rue_shop1: gonna capture this other one now
09:57 PM Tom_L: all i did was the autologin-= thing
09:58 PM rue_shop1: dnno
09:58 PM rue_shop1: I start x manuall on almost all my machines
10:00 PM Tom_L: i'm getting a little better remembering linux stuff but i still don't use it alot
10:02 PM rue_shop1: wtf
10:02 PM rue_shop1: clock is inverted!?
10:03 PM rue_shop1: AVR: #define pulseSCK() SCLKlow(); NOP(); SCLKhigh(); NOP()
10:03 PM Tom_L: aussie time?
10:03 PM rue_shop1: STM32: #define A9833ClockPulse() A9833ClockH(); AD9833Delay(10); A9833ClockL()
10:03 PM rue_shop1: heh
10:04 PM rue_shop1: hahah
10:04 PM rue_shop1: I smooshed it with some other code when I ported it
10:04 PM rue_shop1: hahah
10:06 PM rue_shop1: hahaha, and the DSO138 was aliasing to hell making a 1khz signal look like 1hz
10:06 PM rue_shop1: ok
10:06 PM rue_shop1: this is good
10:06 PM rue_shop1: pull the delays
10:07 PM rue_shop1: yea, I got it
10:08 PM rue_shop1: huh
10:08 PM Tom_L: how much flash do you get on those things?
10:08 PM rue_shop1: 64k?
10:08 PM rue_shop1: Info : flash size = 64kbytes
10:08 PM rue_shop1: yea
10:08 PM Tom_L: plenty
10:08 PM Tom_L: 32bit?
10:08 PM rue_shop1: I dont think I'v ever come close to limits
10:09 PM Tom_L: core
10:09 PM rue_shop1: less trying to do FFT on a tiny13
10:09 PM rue_shop1: yes, I think its 32 bit
10:09 PM rue_shop1: 72Mhz
10:09 PM rue_shop1: cant say how many cycles/instruction, but yea
10:09 PM Tom_L: and runs cold
10:09 PM rue_shop1: yea
10:10 PM Tom_L: the 68332 was 25
10:10 PM Tom_L: you could overclock it
10:11 PM rue_shop1: sweet, ok, this was the milestone for friday night
10:11 PM Tom_L: so you got it?
10:11 PM rue_shop1: thats that part
10:11 PM rue_shop1: I have all the subcomponents working
10:12 PM rue_shop1: adc, serial, timer capture, and controlling that module
10:12 PM Tom_L: i should see if xilinx works
10:12 PM rue_shop1: I just need to start blobbing it all togethor
10:12 PM Tom_L: tried it with a 64bit startup which i've never done
10:12 PM rue_shop1: its too bad I dont have a programmer for the chips I have
10:25 PM Tom_L: ebay have cheap ones?
10:26 PM Tom_L: yay that works now
10:27 PM Tom_L: just generated a bit file with xilinx
10:27 PM Tom_L: so that's all set up
10:37 PM rue_shop1: I need to get that 64 bit machine set up to use so I can get a tut from ya
