[00:07:00] -!- apharas has quit [Ping timeout: 258 seconds]
[00:07:24] <pcw_home> cradek: looks like Tom_itx has it covered, if you have any troubles, I can make one tommorow
[00:09:30] <pcw_home> but beware, untested bitfiles on a 5i25 can brick a 5i25 since the PCI stuff needs to work to re-flash
[00:09:32] <pcw_home> (well only a temporary brick if you have a JTAG cable)
[00:10:59] <pcw_home> most common mistake: no .ucf file associated so pinout is random (this seldom works well)
[00:14:17] -!- ttuner has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
[00:18:07] -!- shaun414 has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[00:19:18] -!- tocka has quit [Quit: My MacBook Pro has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…]
[00:22:16] <Tom_itx> pcw_home did you look at the file?
[00:24:44] -!- toudi has quit [Quit: Wychodzi]
[00:24:48] <Tom_itx> pcw_home, also what generates the .pin file?
[00:25:00] <Tom_itx> i gather it's just an information file...
[00:25:39] <pcw_home> the pinout file looks OK
[00:25:41] <pcw_home> mesaflash --readhmid generates pinout files for example
[00:26:08] <pcw_home> Jeplers build scripts do also
[00:26:33] <pcw_home> or maybe that just .xml files, I forget
[00:28:23] <pcw_home> the main danger in 5i25 file is making sure the proper ucf file is assosciated
[00:28:25] <pcw_home> (ISE cheerfully makes random pinouts without complaint if no .ucf file is assoscited with the top level file)
[00:28:27] <Tom_itx> it seemed to build ok
[00:31:07] <pcw_home> if there are conflicts in the pinout file you will get build errors but of course
[00:31:08] <pcw_home> illogical things like all dir and no step pins are legal so not checked
[00:31:34] <Tom_itx> yeah
[00:32:38] <Tom_itx> 5i25.ucf is associated with tht TopPCIHostmot2.vhd
[00:32:50] <pcw_home> you can verify the created bitfiles pinout with the pinout report
[00:32:50] <Tom_itx> just double checked
[00:33:16] <pcw_home> So its probably OK
[00:33:55] <Tom_itx> my only real concern was having 9 stepgens
[00:34:10] <Tom_itx> he's not using them all...
[00:34:46] -!- bedah has quit [Quit: Ex-Chat]
[00:34:47] -!- nofxx_ has quit [Changing host]
[00:35:44] <pcw_home> 15 or so should be OK
[00:36:14] <pcw_home> (eventually you will run out of space, that the only real limit)
[00:37:53] <pcw_home> plus thay add compile time (the more stuff in the FPGA _and_ the closer you are to being full. the slower the compilation will be)
[00:41:29] -!- maximilian_h1 [maximilian_h1!~bonsai@dslb-188-099-059-175.188.099.pools.vodafone-ip.de] has joined #linuxcnc-devel

[00:48:59] <Tom_itx> pcw_home where do i find the pinout report?
[00:49:33] <pcw_home> its one of the things map does
[00:50:13] <pcw_home> probably have to root through the menus to find it
[00:52:29] <Tom_itx> timing analizer -> post map?
[00:52:38] <cradek> pcw_home: do you think it's safe to try?
[00:52:53] <cradek> pcw_home: I don't really have a jtag cable
[00:52:58] <cradek> (but how hard could it be)
[00:53:15] <pcw_home> a paralle port and a HC125
[00:53:51] <pcw_home> if Toms pinout report looks sane its probably OK
[00:54:29] <Tom_itx> i just replaced 2 null tags with an extra stepgen pair and renumbered them
[00:54:40] <Tom_itx> adding the stepgen count to 9 instead of 8
[00:54:47] <Tom_itx> at the top
[00:54:57] <Tom_itx> 'instances'
[00:55:18] <pcw_home> If mesaflash was a bit smarter, there would be safe way to test new bitfiles
[00:55:27] <Tom_itx> and added the 'c' suffix to the function name
[00:56:42] <pcw_home> Tom_itx: do you have recent source? The ICAP stuff is pretty recent (not required but nice)
[00:56:54] <Tom_itx> source for what?
[00:57:14] <pcw_home> hostmot2 source
[00:57:34] <Tom_itx> i just grabbed the 5i25 file from your site
[00:58:01] <Tom_itx> should be in there...
[00:58:13] <Tom_itx> my 7i43 files are a bit older
[00:58:33] -!- WyrM has quit [Changing host]
[00:58:34] <pcw_home> OK so that should be up-to-date, have to ask micges about a booting from fallback area option
[00:58:40] -!- Flipp__ has quit [Ping timeout: 244 seconds]
[01:00:11] <Tom_itx> if he has concerns you can generate it for him tomorrow
[01:00:18] <pcw_home> (so you could test a new bitfile by writing it to the fallback area, and booting from there)
[01:00:19] <Tom_itx> i posted the source on my site
[01:00:19] <pcw_home> if your bit file was bad, a power cycle would be all thats needed to recover

[01:01:45] <Tom_itx> i don't wanna screw one up but i don't mind making one once in a while for ppl
[01:01:53] <pcw_home> I dont think theres anything you can do in a pinout file that will affect card access
[01:01:54] <pcw_home> really only bad ucf file or unassociated ucf file
[01:02:21] <pcw_home> so its very likely its OK

[02:22:23] <cradek> whee, burnt, rebooting
[02:22:59] <Tom_itx> ?
[02:23:22] -!- rob_h has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds]
[02:24:43] -!- swingley has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[02:25:06] <seb_kuzminsky> cradek: cool!
[02:25:29] <cradek> no brick!
[02:25:33] <seb_kuzminsky> it would be cool if we had a working hm2 buildbot, then you could add a config file for the firmware you want and get automatic builds & bugfixes for it
[02:25:39] <cradek> but the stepgens are in a weird order
[02:25:55] <Tom_itx> i found that changed on mine too
[02:25:57] <cradek> 2/3, 4/5, 16/17, 6/7, 8/9
[02:26:28] <cradek> seb_kuzminsky: yeah, that would have been cool, but probably not widely needed
[02:27:29] <Tom_itx> would you rather they be at the bottom?
[02:28:10] <cradek> yeah, but that wasn't given as a requirement originally :-)
[02:28:19] <cradek> it's fine, simple hal editing -- thanks again
[02:28:33] <Tom_itx> i made the instance order somewhat match the io
[02:28:40] -!- jerryitt has quit [Quit: Connection closed for inactivity]
[02:28:41] <Tom_itx> that's probably why
[02:29:01] <cradek> yeah I was thinking more along the parport pin numbers
[02:31:11] <Tom_itx> i could move them to be stepgen 08
[02:31:14] <Tom_itx> if you like
[02:32:06] <cradek> I have jogs!
[02:32:08] <cradek> yay
[02:32:15] <Tom_itx> works?
[02:32:22] <cradek> yep
[02:32:24] <Tom_itx> cool
[02:32:29] <cradek> scale is wrong but it moves
[02:33:33] <cradek> actually the scale is right - jogs are just too slow
[02:33:36] <Tom_itx> keep that vhd file
[02:33:39] <cradek> so it's perfect
[02:33:44] <cradek> yeah it's right next to the .bit

[02:53:05] <Tom_itx> cradek, i'm reordering the stepgens... i'll post the files to the same link if you wanna use em
[02:53:33] <Tom_itx> suffix D instead of C
[02:54:55] <cradek> thanks, I'll download and keep them for next time around
[02:55:21] <Tom_itx> synthesizing right now..
[02:56:39] <Tom_itx> should be the same pin order as you had with 16 & 17 tacked on the bottom
[03:02:52] -!- gennro has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[03:05:46] <Tom_itx> posted.
[03:07:54] <cradek> saved, thanks
[03:08:17] <cradek> if I need the 5th axis I'll reflash so they're in order again, but for now it's fine
[03:08:50] <Tom_itx> you use mesaflash to upload the bit files?
[03:08:54] <cradek> yeah
[03:08:56] <Tom_itx> i've never done a 5i25 yes
[03:08:58] <Tom_itx> yet*
[03:09:07] <cradek> I just use the packaged one from the linuxcnc repository
[03:09:12] <Tom_itx> yeah
[03:09:35] <pcw_home> You should not need to reboot anymore...
[03:09:43] -!- WyrM has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
[03:09:44] <cradek> it said I needed to
[03:10:22] <Tom_itx> pcw_home do the ether cards load the same way?
[03:10:25] <pcw_home> Ahh because your old bitfile didnt support ICAP
[03:10:57] -!- WyrM has quit [Changing host]
[03:11:19] <pcw_home> Yes, mesaflash works with the Ethernet and EPP cards also
[03:11:33] <pcw_home> maybe even serial
[03:12:49] <pcw_home> you can check if a PCI card supports ICAP by reading offset 0x78
[03:13:47] <pcw_home> sudo mesaflash --device 5i25 --rpo 0x78
[03:14:07] <Tom_itx> what exactly is ICAP?
[03:15:23] <jepler> Internal Configuration Access Port, allowing reconfiguration of the running FPGA
[03:16:53] <Tom_itx> do they store 2 configurations?
[03:17:00] <Tom_itx> a default and a runing one
[03:17:14] <pcw_home> The standard setup uses 2
[03:17:30] <pcw_home> a user config and a fallback config
[03:17:36] <Tom_itx> right
[03:17:44] <Tom_itx> in case of an oops
[03:18:05] <pcw_home> so for example if you pull the plug while writing a new config, thats recoverable

[03:25:58] <skunkworks_> I don't think master is much better./
[03:26:13] <cradek> heck, really?
[03:26:38] <skunkworks_> only xyz - all other blends fall back to parabolic
[03:27:23] <cradek> heh, figures he'd keep the broken parts
[03:37:15] <skunkworks_> what is the lense for?
[03:41:42] <cradek> eyeglasses
[03:43:03] <cradek> putting lenses in some cool vintage solid gold frames (ebay $19 hahaha)
[03:47:02] <skunkworks_> ah - ok.
[03:48:23] <cradek> oooops space heater + spindle + vacuum = nope
[03:48:35] <skunkworks_> well that sucks..

[04:25:52] <seb_kuzminsky> cradek: http://imgur.com/a/oCazB (whiskey for scale)
[04:27:00] <skunkworks_> I think cradek said - mm on one side - 10/100th inch on othe..
[04:28:36] <seb_kuzminsky> i think that's what i showed

[04:30:53] <seb_kuzminsky> err... some
[04:30:56] <seb_kuzminsky> what am i missing?
[04:31:06] <seb_kuzminsky> mm on one side, 10th/100ths on the other
[04:32:05] <seb_kuzminsky> i agree with cradek, the problem's not imperial units, the problem's fractions
[04:32:06] <cradek> by golly, that's exactly it
[04:32:08] <skunkworks_> the one you posted - http://imgur.com/a/oCazB is metric on both sides..
[04:32:26] <seb_kuzminsky> skunkworks_: how much whiskey have *you* been drinking? ;-)
[04:32:36] <cradek> well I know I haven't had enough

[04:33:44] <skunkworks_> oh - you mean - on the flip side...
[04:33:51] <seb_kuzminsky> haha
[04:34:02] * seb_kuzminsky points at skunkworks
[04:34:16] <skunkworks_> I have shingles - don't make fun..
[04:34:26] <seb_kuzminsky> and even cooler, it's got furlongs too
[04:34:31] <seb_kuzminsky> on the *in* side
[04:35:03] <cradek> I can have free shipping if I get 10 of them...
[04:35:31] <seb_kuzminsky> or if you wait 1-6 months for a free shipping deal
[04:35:57] <cradek> they could put it in an envelope with a 49c stamp, but noooo
[04:36:20] <seb_kuzminsky> well they'd also have to pay the guy/lady who goes to get it in the warehouse
[04:36:55] <seb_kuzminsky> i'm irrationally exhuberant to finally have a complete allen key set (again, and for a few months until i lose one)

[15:45:52] <jepler> ADXL362 might make an interesting part of a wireless touch probe. It's an accelerometer which as a motion-activated wake mode that draws just 270nA. Together with a microcontroller, you can get a "hibernation" draw of <2µA https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11447
[15:46:11] -!- WyrM has quit [Excess Flood]
[15:46:59] <archivist> spindle rotation will set it off
[15:47:12] <jepler> sending one RC-5 remote code on touch is 3uC/mA
[15:48:14] <jepler> seems like you could have a fairly long-running probe with 3AA or a 3V lithium
[15:50:53] <ssi> build an inductive charging system into your tool carousel
[15:50:54] <ssi> :D
[15:51:06] <archivist> actually the venerable PIC chips have a button press wake mode, that could be the probe contact itself
[15:51:31] <jepler> cradek's renishaw gives pulses whenever it's active, so you can avoid starting a probing move if the battery's dead or the receiver's blocked
[15:51:50] <jepler> but you don't want to do that if you're in the drawer
[15:52:04] -!- fran_becu_ has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[15:52:06] <jepler> of course if you're in the toolchanger you'll wake with every toolchange
[15:52:17] <ssi> the renishaws have to be spun to wake up, I think?
[15:52:29] <cradek> it's two-way communication of some kind. the control sends a command to turn it on ... somehow
[15:52:29] <archivist> the thing I have also has a button out the cat50 taper so it senses being loaded
[15:53:00] <cradek> you certainly don't spin it (eeeek)
[15:53:55] <cradek> I either need to get more super glue, or quit cutting myself by doing stupid stuff
[15:54:03] <jepler> hmm how would you do wake-on-IR?
[15:54:04] <cradek> (ideally both)
[15:54:30] <archivist> you should spin to remove concentric errors of the probe
[15:54:50] <ssi> "The probe may be activated by RF signal initiated by an M-code, spinning or shank switch.

[18:43:19] <jepler> cradek: RedHat has developed a group of new programs under the umbrella of "systemd", a program which replaces PID 0. Like Ubuntu's "upstart", it aims to modernize the init system as well as other things like management of logged in users.
[18:43:49] <jepler> cradek: Many components of Gnome are tightly coupled with systemd, and many components which used to be independent (e.g., udev) have also become closely coupled with systemd.
[18:44:29] <jepler> cradek: during the Debian Jessie development cycle, there has been a long-running flamewar between people who like systemd and people who like the status quo
[18:45:05] <jepler> while I tend to side with "status quo", there are a lot of visible a--holes on that side
[18:45:40] <jepler> well there are jerks on both sides
[18:46:24] <cradek> my knee jerks firmly in the direction of not wanting gui stuff stirred in with system stuff
[18:46:25] <jepler> but only the status quo side has an obviously mentally ill individual who inexplicably spams the linux kernel (!) mailing list about ten times a day, for instance to plug his new music video "f--- systemd"
[18:46:39] <cradek> wow
[18:46:53] <jepler> and somehow he has also started ranting about feminism
[18:46:59] <cradek> wow!
[18:47:04] <jepler> so it looks really bad for the status quo side
[18:49:41] <jepler> personally, I find some of the ideas in systemd very interesting, but it very much feels like a "moving target" and therefore likely to need another tough migration from jessie to jessie+1; and also the systemd authors are committed to non-portability -- they use linux-only syscalls and are on record as unwilling to add a portability library that would ever allow e.g., a port to freebsd. as I'm a user of debian kfreebsd, this
[18:50:13] <jepler> it's a really weird attitude that I don't understand. "we think you're likely to have difficulty porting this to freebsd" I would understand; "there's no way we'll take portability patches" is altogether weirder.
[18:50:19] <cradek> kfreebsd, this ...
[18:50:33] <jepler> this is an important strike against it
[18:50:36] <cradek> ah
[18:50:50] <cradek> yeah that's hard to understand and smells kind of like mental illness
[18:51:29] <jepler> but anyway it's become a real sh--storm in the debian community and it sucks
[18:51:38] <cradek> yeah I can see where it would
[18:51:41] <cradek> thanks for the explanation
[18:51:51] <jepler> fwiw I have systemd installed on my everyday laptop and it has not caused me any trouble
[18:52:09] <cradek> has it caused you any benefit?
[18:52:25] <jepler> at some point the output of "dmesg" became colorized, I dunno if that's their doing
[18:52:37] <jepler> (systemd replaces syslogd with journald, so it does interfere^Wenhance logging in some way)
[18:52:40] <seb_kuzminsky> dmesg, really?
[18:53:17] <seb_kuzminsky> many improvements are not visible to users, they simply remove behind-the-scenes cruft that bug developers
[18:53:33] <seb_kuzminsky> i have no opinion about systemd, btw
[18:53:35] <cradek> did they break^Wmodernize all the things we know and love about syslog, like remote logging?

[18:56:08] <jepler> cradek: yes from some googling it looks like it
[18:56:23] <cradek> welp
[18:56:55] <cradek> it's easy to forget to rewrite everything when you're rewriting things
[18:57:33] <jepler> some of their recent acquisitions are a new name resolver and a new network time synchronization server
[18:57:39] -!- tchaddad has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[18:58:45] <cradek> that's hard for me to understand
[18:58:52] <jepler> it's quite easy for me to slip into thinking of systemd as class CADT development model
[18:59:02] <cradek> sure sounds like
[19:00:33] <jepler> but on the other hand, RedHat (who I think are employing the principal developers of systemd) are confident enough in it to ship it in RHEL
[19:01:08] <jepler> not that I know who is using RHEL but it's software that you pay money for so it must be good
[19:02:00] <jepler> on the other hand, you also have representatives of Red Hat Product Security recommend to disable parts of systemd, sooo http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2014/11/12/6

[19:03:09] <cradek> whyyyyyy would you write a new replacement for bind?
[19:03:26] <jepler> I can tell you're a status quo kind of guy
[19:03:59] <cradek> who would want to take that on? it has years and years of fixes and hardening
[19:04:13] <jepler> do you remember being a young programmer who could do anything?
[19:04:17] <jepler> I do
[19:04:32] <jepler> "I can write a DNS resolver in 35 lines of Python", I used to say
[19:05:13] <cradek> and I could make it replace ntp and init and syslog too, with 35 more lines!
[19:05:35] <jepler> argh I am sorry I've steered this conversation into ad hominem attacks on systemd developers
[19:06:13] <cradek> it's a thing that happens
[19:06:14] <jepler> I am also very much a status quo guy
[19:06:36] <seb_kuzminsky> i bet jmk thinks of you as a "shiny new things" guy
[19:07:02] <cradek> heh
[19:07:02] <jepler> probably. it is a spectrum
[19:08:03] <cradek> after years and years of fixes and hardening, some people look at software as done, others look at it as ugly and inelegant
[19:08:25] <seb_kuzminsky> and they're both right
[19:08:34] <cradek> perhaps
[19:08:57] <seb_kuzminsky> we've had reperesentatives of both schools in our recent debates about NML
[19:11:53] <memleak> one thing i love about systemd is the start-up times and all the colors :)
[19:12:05] <seb_kuzminsky> does it start up super quick?
[19:12:09] <cradek> that's two things
[19:12:16] <memleak> lol yes it is, sorry
[19:12:26] <memleak> and seb_kuzminsky yes it does
[19:12:38] <seb_kuzminsky> "one thing i love about systemd is it makes 2 == 1"
[19:12:44] <memleak> xD
[19:12:45] <cradek> 1:12PM up 657 days, 21:33, 12 users, load averages: 0.26, 0.17, 0.10
[19:12:47] <jepler> if I was rebooting all the time I might care about boot times :-P
[19:12:56] <seb_kuzminsky> haha
[19:13:02] <memleak> when i was doing rtai development i was rebooting every few minutes..
[19:13:14] <cradek> (I had to check three machines before I found one up > 1yr)
[19:13:15] <memleak> either that or experiencing kernel panics
[19:13:24] <seb_kuzminsky> maybe cradek would reboot more often if it didnt take 658 days for his machine to come up
[19:13:30] <memleak> systemd really came in handy for me at that point
[19:13:55] <seb_kuzminsky> memleak: i bet
[19:14:23] <memleak> its a real pain to work though, too much documentation and too much code and complicated scripting

[19:15:24] <memleak> yes i was trying to write a simple systemd start-up script and it was an enormous webpage on writing a systemd script with several pages per function

[19:20:12] <Guest8791> Hope someone are able to help, I did a commit "f2ec59a600ff5ed9336df217bfc4b98d76329bd9" some time ago, that did fix an smal error with the pause button on gmoccapy, but unfortunately it was only aplied to 2.7, not to 2.6. Now I found an other smal bug, I need to fix in 2.6 also, but I am afraid I will destroy 2.7 and master if someone later merge 2.6 in 2.7. So how can I get the patch I made also in 2.6.

[19:33:48] <seb_kuzminsky> cool

[19:36:10] <PCW> (other than people having network config issues or fighting with the network mangler)
[19:36:54] <jepler> we need a document that helps people choose which RT kernel to use

[19:37:23] <jepler> 2. intelligent motion control: uspace
[19:37:55] <jepler> well that was pretty short :-P
[19:38:12] <PCW> yeah of course you can run PCI/Parallel connected hardware on uspace also
[19:38:35] <seb_kuzminsky> i'd like to put the install/upgrade/configure docs in git for 2.7, instead of on the wiki
[19:39:01] <seb_kuzminsky> in the Getting Started section, probably: http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/
[19:39:05] <jepler> all mesa and pico boards run great on uspace as far as I'm aware
[19:39:30] <PCW> Yeah
[19:39:31] <cradek> my 5i25 worked great
[19:39:35] <jepler> but the older boards just aren't ported over

[19:39:59] <PCW> exceptions maybe people needing the fastest servo thread possible
[19:40:16] <seb_kuzminsky> i wonder if the General Mechatronics folks are interested in porting their driver? i'll mail them and ask

[22:59:47] <jepler> of course having 24 different sized buttons all with different colors makes my teeth hurt
[23:00:45] <seb_kuzminsky> i like the use of hue to indicate axis, and saturation to indicate jog increment, but yes it's a bit garish
[23:01:35] <jepler> was that selecting individual lines of code to run ?
[23:02:08] <seb_kuzminsky> i didn't understand what he was showing by selecting the lines
[23:02:17] <jepler> I had audio off so I'm only guessing
[23:03:11] <seb_kuzminsky> the awesome sauce there, imo, is mdns to discover a controller on the network, then talking to it over tcp (with the gui running in a browser)
[23:03:28] <seb_kuzminsky> i guess it's talking to that server that jepler mentioned the other day, which then turns around and talks nml to task
[23:03:45] <kb8wmc> jepler: good evening sir, wondering if you have any experience with setting up camview/camera as I am lost attempting to get the machine to move when I attempt of activate the G43H99 code on my machine
[23:04:05] -!- f1oat has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
[23:04:06] <jepler> kb8wmc: nope, never used camview
[23:04:27] <kb8wmc> ok...tnx for answering....
[23:04:42] <seb_kuzminsky> kb8wmc: g43 shouldnt move the machine
[23:05:21] <kb8wmc> seb_kuzminsky: well may be that I am not understanding the instructions properly then
[23:06:06] <jepler> what seb says about G43 is correct.
[23:06:07] <jepler> > G43 and G43.1 change subsequent motions by offsetting the Z and/or X coordinates by the length of the tool. G43 and G43.1 do not cause any motion. The next time a compensated axis is moved, that axis's endpoint is the compensated location.
[23:06:47] <jepler> so if you command G43H99, and it has a different Z tool offset from the one previously in effect, then the next Z motion is to a Z value that takes into account the tool length
[23:07:05] <jepler> (the wording needs to be updated because tool offsets are now possible on all axis letters, not just X and Z)
[23:07:13] <kb8wmc> ok, rgr that jepler, I do remember that now, the use of the G43 is for setting an offset
[23:07:16] <jepler> (but google served me up version 2.4 documentation anyway)
[23:07:33] <jepler> http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gcode/gcode.html#sec:G43
[23:07:47] <jepler> jthornton: http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gcode/gcode.html#sec:G43 should say that any axis letter can be affected by G43, not just X/Z
