[00:00:48] <ReadError> 1st one was on the left
[00:01:33] <alex4nder> sick
[00:01:39] <alex4nder> how are you attaching them to the table?
[00:02:07] <andypugh> Why not just leave them like the middle one?
[00:02:15] <ReadError> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25091878/Photo%20Jul%2012%2C%204%2052%2025%20PM.jpg
[00:02:24] <ReadError> andypugh, well
[00:02:24] <CareBear\> andypugh : you'll know after assembling one or two
[00:02:28] <CareBear\> :)
[00:02:28] <ReadError> i figure less copper
[00:02:32] <ReadError> less chance of shorting
[00:02:33] <ReadError> ;)
[00:02:37] <Tom_itx> i've used double back tape to secure them before
[00:02:43] <ReadError> since ive never done SMD work
[00:02:54] <ReadError> i made a simple jig
[00:02:59] <ReadError> took 5 mins
[00:03:02] <alex4nder> ReadError: ah, cool cool. what's the work holder made out of?
[00:03:22] <ReadError> some g10
[00:03:26] <ReadError> 1/8"
[00:03:30] <alex4nder> ah cool
[00:03:58] <alex4nder> what is it?
[00:04:02] <Tom_itx> lower right 2nd pad in on the first board has an awfully thin trace on it
[00:04:06] <alex4nder> uC and support compontent carrier?
[00:04:14] <andypugh> Do you know why the circles aren't round?
[00:04:22] <Tom_itx> as does the 8pin dip to the left of it
[00:04:28] <andypugh> I assume a flexiy-bendy machine?
[00:04:29] <alex4nder> andypugh: he's an artist
[00:04:30] <ReadError> andypugh, I think its the tool
[00:04:36] <ReadError> er
[00:04:38] <ReadError> idk
[00:04:56] <alex4nder> you sure it's not backlash?
[00:05:22] <ReadError> that pic is my 1st
[00:05:27] <ReadError> i kinda got the code and depth a bit better
[00:05:33] -!- servos4ever has quit [Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.85 [SeaMonkey 2.0.11/20101206162726]]
[00:05:34] <alex4nder> looks great man
[00:05:37] <andypugh> Could well be backash. The left-right tracks seem thinner than the up-down ones.
[00:05:50] <alex4nder> ReadError: you going to drag solder them by hand or use a toaster/heater/hot air?
[00:05:59] <ReadError> alex4nder, ordered a rework station
[00:06:05] <alex4nder> what style?
[00:06:10] <andypugh> Solder paste and an iron seems to work fine for me.
[00:06:13] <ReadError> luckily, when i ordered they had it 20$ off
[00:06:15] <alex4nder> andypugh: same here
[00:06:19] <andypugh> (ie, normal soldering iron)
[00:06:26] <alex4nder> I use a hoof tip on a Metcal MX-500
[00:06:44] <Tom_itx> the upper left pad on the 8pin dip going to the tqfp has an awfully thin trace on the right board
[00:06:46] <ReadError> http://sra-solder.com/product.php/6267/1/968
[00:06:58] <ReadError> Tom_itx, yea
[00:07:00] <archivist> top middle round pad shows machine error nicely
[00:07:01] <ReadError> its super thin
[00:07:05] <ReadError> but has continuity
[00:07:21] <Tom_itx> reliablly?
[00:07:31] <ReadError> yea ive done 4
[00:07:34] <ReadError> its there on all of them
[00:07:40] <ReadError> maybe i need to change my backlash settings
[00:07:41] <andypugh> The optical encoder chip (with pads underneath and nothing out the side) is a bit of a pain though: https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/kWSTOh9MUUH3q-9nUid_ztMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=directlink
[00:07:41] <Tom_itx> so is the 4th pad over at the top
[00:07:52] <archivist> there is backlash or bending
[00:08:13] <Tom_itx> i've all but given up on this rewiring job
[00:08:24] <alex4nder> ReadError: did you ever do backlash comp on your setup?
[00:08:52] <andypugh> Tom_itx: Isn't it a bit late to give up now?
[00:08:56] <Tom_itx> seems the logic want's to see 5v on a button push on most of it and the gpio pins on the 7i43 require logic low
[00:09:21] <Tom_itx> i got it back to a workable point
[00:09:55] <Tom_itx> i don't really feel like a whole rewrite / rewire just to get an encoder
[00:10:00] <andypugh> Tom_itx: They don't _require_ logic low, but just disconnecting them from +5 won't change their state.
[00:10:22] <Tom_itx> i thought the gpio had weak pullups on them
[00:10:37] <Tom_itx> and taking them to gnd would change their state
[00:10:44] <ReadError> ok this is odd
[00:10:53] <ReadError> i could have _swore_ i had backlash in my taig.ini file
[00:10:57] <Tom_itx> anyway, i'd have to rethink alot of the other logic and i'm not sure i'm up to it right now
[00:11:15] <alex4nder> ReadError: I remember you working on it
[00:11:30] <alex4nder> like, you mentioned it
[00:11:33] <andypugh> Yes, exactly, so they won't change state if they are simply disconnected from +5 . I _think_ you could pull them down with a stronger pull-down, then drag them back up with +5V
[00:11:55] <Tom_itx> pcw indicated i needed logic low
[00:11:55] <ReadError> now im tripping out
[00:11:59] <ReadError> because i thought i set them...
[00:13:05] <andypugh> Tom_itx: Depends what you mean by "logic low". That really only applies to outputs, and you are looking at inputs.
[00:14:01] <ReadError> wow
[00:14:05] <ReadError> this entire time, i thought i had it on..
[00:14:27] <ReadError> jon@jon-desktop:~$ grep -R "BACKLASH" *
[00:14:27] <andypugh> They are weakly pulled high inside the FPGA. You could more-forcefully pull them down with a resistor, then accept that the +5V is having to source a decent amount of current.
[00:14:27] <ReadError> Binary file Desktop/taig/.taig.ini.swp matches
[00:14:27] <ReadError> Dropbox/New folder/configs/taig/taig.ini:BACKLASH = 0.0008
[00:14:27] <ReadError> Dropbox/New folder/configs/taig/taig.ini:BACKLASH = 0.0035
[00:14:34] <ReadError> its in my dropbox *facepalm*
[00:14:36] <Tom_itx> ReadError it makes a huge difference
[00:14:54] <ReadError> yea for sure
[00:15:01] <ReadError> i need to move the config back over
[00:15:43] <ReadError> ok its in the .swp file
[00:15:49] <ReadError> open vim session i assume
[00:16:04] <andypugh> Tom_itx: A simpler solution might be a ULN2008, they are very cheap and IIRC have exactly the required properties of connecting a leg to common Gnd when an input pin is high.
[00:16:05] <Tom_itx> andypugh i may try pulldowns just to see
[00:16:28] <Tom_itx> i don't think it would hurt anything
[00:16:56] <andypugh> No, it's all safe-level voltages and resistors outside the baord.
[00:16:57] <Tom_itx> pcw_home?
[00:17:14] <Tom_itx> like a 1k
[00:17:25] <Tom_itx> naw, probably 10k
[00:17:39] <Tom_itx> i doubt the internals are very strong ones
[00:18:09] <andypugh> Tom_itx: I probably meant uln2003 (uln2008 is the 8-channel version)
[00:18:24] <Tom_itx> i'll just try resistors
[00:18:38] <andypugh> A 1k pull-down means your signal current is 5mA, which is tiny
[00:20:01] <andypugh> 100R wouldn't be silly if you are using physical buttons.
[00:20:43] <Tom_itx> is_opendrain just applies to outputs right?
[00:22:38] <andypugh> Pretty sure that's what I read last night, yes
[00:22:56] <andypugh> mn hostmot2 in the gpio section has the info
[00:23:02] <andypugh> (man)

[00:25:07] -!- sumpfralle1 has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
[00:26:04] <ReadError> i have 0.0035 in my Y axis too
[00:26:08] <ReadError> that makes perfect sense now
[00:26:38] <ReadError> only 0.0008 in my X
[00:27:03] <Tom_itx> andypugh yeah i'm looking at it
[00:27:07] <andypugh> Those numbers seem rather low. Ballscrews?
[00:27:28] <ReadError> andypugh, just the default taig stuff
[00:27:32] <ReadError> i put my dial on it
[00:27:34] <Tom_itx> i think all you get on input is 'in' and 'in_not'
[00:27:40] <ReadError> set the movement to 0.0001
[00:27:48] <ReadError> and would move, change directions
[00:27:52] <ReadError> count how many presses it took
[00:27:59] <ReadError> before the dial indicator moved a bit
[00:28:06] <ReadError> did it 3 times, took the average
[00:28:11] <ReadError> not sure if thats the right method
[00:28:16] <ReadError> since it wasnt under a load..
[00:28:30] <andypugh> If you are keen, you can map it so that the values are different in different parts of the travel
[00:28:46] <ReadError> well im not that good ;)
[00:28:52] <Tom_itx> andypugh i think i'm gonna test with some spagetti wiring on one pin before i rewire the whole thing again
[00:28:53] <ReadError> im still starting off
[00:30:28] <andypugh> Tom_itx: Seems like the sensible approach.
[00:31:23] <Tom_itx> talk about backlash, my Y was pretty worn and had .010 but after adding comp i was able to cut a nice circle within .001 of what i programmed it which i think is pretty good for this little sherline
[00:31:49] <Tom_itx> no noticeable notches where the quadrants change direction either

[00:32:38] <Tom_itx> http://tom-itx.dyndns.org:81/~webpage/cnc/cnc_files/millholder1.jpg
[00:33:14] <andypugh> Tom_itx: I just remebered that I used ULN2003 to interface my 7i43. You can just see them peeking through under the wires: https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/Til4cZnLeEZ6Y2jizdn8-tMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=directlink
[00:33:16] <ReadError> im still kinda tripping how my config got changed out
[00:33:29] <ReadError> since i know i had it, it was in the .swp file afterall
[00:36:03] <andypugh> That Vero-board breakout is marginally cleverer than it looks, as the wires each have a crimp-terminal on the end and are onto individual header pins. So that is all rewiarable. Naturally I have never needed to.

[00:36:35] <Tom_itx> i wish you had a bigger pic of it
[00:37:35] <Tom_itx> i do the crimp terminals as well
[00:37:46] <Tom_itx> heatshrink over it to use as a single plugin
[00:38:29] <andypugh> I sold the hold-down set. £32. About half what I pad for it.
[00:39:39] <Tom_itx> ok, back at it here...

[01:00:29] <r00t4rd3d> sweet, let me get my gun.
[01:00:54] <fullofSheds> seems that cnc machine co's decide on very similar names all over the world.... I didn't exoect to find 10 different co's named NewWay, neuway, nuway etc etc in China
[01:02:53] <Tom_itx> andypugh 1k doesn't seem to be enough
[01:03:00] <Tom_itx> the pin still kinda floats
[01:03:08] <Tom_itx> maybe 330 ohm?
[01:03:16] <Tom_itx> would that be too much?
[01:03:22] <andypugh> I think I would have started at 330.
[01:03:46] <andypugh> We know that it is safe to short the pin to gnd, as that is rather what you are expected to do
[01:03:50] <Tom_itx> i _would_ have started at 10k :)
[01:04:02] <Tom_itx> true
[01:04:15] <andypugh> So the question is how much current you want to flow in the 5V state
[01:04:58] <andypugh> What is the pin voltage at 1k?
[01:05:50] <Tom_itx> i didn't check it
[01:06:05] <andypugh> ie, with a multimeter measure the unconnected voltage. Then the voltage at 1k, then you can calculate the pull-up resistance. And then you need to know the switching thresholds to work out the opptimum pull-down.
[01:06:09] <Tom_itx> it was causing the logic to twitch though so it was very marginal

[01:09:14] <Tom_itx> 4.14v unconnected, 1.432 connected
[01:09:52] <Tom_itx> .507v with the 330 ohm
[01:12:55] <Tom_itx> yeah 330 seems to do ok
[01:16:29] <Tom_itx> i'll solder some of those in and see what happens
[01:16:50] <andypugh> Make sure the jumpers are set for 5V operation though.
[01:17:07] <Tom_itx> they are
[01:17:14] <Tom_itx> i did that right off the bat

[03:40:36] <Tom_itx> mmm
[03:40:43] <Tom_itx> ok i think i finally got it working
[03:40:51] <Connor> got what working ?
[03:40:53] <Tom_itx> rewired and software working
[03:41:02] <Tom_itx> i moved some pins on my pendant
[03:41:09] <Tom_itx> doing so caused all sorts of problems
[03:41:40] <Tom_itx> the short of it was the pins i went to were reverse logic from what i had originally
[03:42:44] <Tom_itx> so i had to add some resistors and change the software to suit
[03:43:03] <Tom_itx> but it took a while to get to that point
[03:43:37] <Tom_itx> now i've got an encoder freed up to use for my spindle encoder

[12:03:14] <archivist> you want us to read the datasheet for you :)
[12:03:35] <jthornton> it was on my list of things to do but I've not had the time
[12:08:23] <r00t4rd3d> There is a 4 digit span in the model numbers.
[12:09:43] <r00t4rd3d> i dont think amps would be the main spec of a stepper either.
[12:09:57] <r00t4rd3d> frame size would probably come first for me
[12:11:33] <gmagno> my conviction is that they are almost interchangeable, and was hoping that the community experience would answer this question easily. But thanks anyway
[12:13:16] <r00t4rd3d> such a small jump in model numbers the differences are probably not much
[12:13:33] <r00t4rd3d> probably power stuffs
[12:13:41] <r00t4rd3d> fuck now i gotta look
[12:15:37] <r00t4rd3d> 84 = No smoke no fire (NSNF) compliance (ET package)

[12:28:07] <archivist> a tool like that is a saw sharpener !
[12:30:48] <r00t4rd3d> it takes me like 20 tries to get my gear on the end of my threaded rod straight.
[12:31:11] <r00t4rd3d> there is 2 keys and each one will tilt it slightly

[14:28:48] <Tom_itx> i did
[14:29:41] <andypugh> JT-Shop: Glade is a lot easier to get the gui looking right, and a lot more powerful. It _ought_ to be easier.
[14:30:03] <Jymmm> Tom_itx: looks nice
[14:30:57] <JT-Shop> yea, I think it is time to move on to glade, I've messed with it a bit in the past
[14:31:23] <Jymmm> Tom_itx: Be warned, that red acrylic will crack if stressed
[14:31:44] <Tom_itx> it was just scrap laying around
[14:32:01] <Jymmm> Tom_itx: =)
[14:32:07] <Tom_itx> seems like it's holding for now
[14:33:55] <Jymmm> Tom_itx: =)
[14:39:17] * Loetmichel hase made a holder for the ER11 collets lately....
[14:39:19] <JT-Shop> need a bigger monitor for glade + a tutorial :(
[14:39:27] <Loetmichel> WITH writing...
[14:39:42] <Loetmichel> http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=12638
[14:40:02] <Jymmm> JT-Shop: two projectors and that big ass bare wall in the newshop
[14:40:04] <Loetmichel> http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=13221
[14:40:12] <JT-Shop> lol
[14:40:53] <archivist> no space for the holder redo from start
[14:41:10] <Tom_itx> Note
[14:41:10] <Tom_itx> Don’t try and set the offsets by editing the tool table, the offsets are from the machine origin.
[14:41:25] <Tom_itx> rather: Don't try and set the length offsets
[14:41:33] * Tom_itx looks at JT-Shop
[14:41:56] * JT-Shop looks back through the maze of windoes on this tiny monitor
[14:42:16] * JT-Shop nods
[14:42:26] * archivist looks askance at the looks
[14:42:43] <Loetmichel> tiny monitor?
[14:42:47] <Loetmichel> where?
[14:42:50] <Tom_itx> 22:
[14:42:52] <Tom_itx> 22"
[14:42:53] <Tom_itx> :)
[14:42:58] <Loetmichel> i need one in 10 to 12"
[14:43:07] <Loetmichel> and 1024*768 at least...
[14:43:14] <Tom_itx> i need a touchscreen now
[14:43:14] <Loetmichel> but where to get ;-)
[14:43:18] <JT-Shop> this one is about 18"
[14:43:36] <Loetmichel> i havent enough room at the CNC.
[14:43:40] <Tom_itx> Loetmichel steal one from UPS / FEDEX truck
[14:44:39] <Tom_itx> http://tom-itx.dyndns.org:81/~webpage/SBC/lcdpanel.jpg
[14:44:40] <Loetmichel> the 15" is already crammed between two rack shelves there: http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=12569
[14:44:44] <Tom_itx> i'd planned on using that one
[14:45:12] <Loetmichel> and i want it to mount on the back wall of the mill, for easy moving the mill
[14:45:31] <Loetmichel> i sometimes have it with me when doing model conventions...
[14:45:35] <Loetmichel> or at company ;-)

[15:06:42] <Jymmm> archivist: Ball Worm Transmission http://urobotics.urology.jhu.edu/projects/BW/
[15:07:12] <Jymmm> archivist: patent for it at bottom in PDF
[15:08:19] <archivist> not sure there is no prior art, typical us paten office
[15:10:26] <Jymmm> http://www.google.com/patents/US7051610?printsec=drawing#v=onepage&q&f=false
[15:11:36] <archivist> In leafing through patents that date from as far back as the early 1900s, Stoianovici found about 30 that made similar claims to that of his invention. "None had been built and none were commercially available," he said. He attributed this only to the recent catching-up of design and manufacturing technologies that can handle the calculations and machining needed for the device's complicated geometry.
[15:11:53] <archivist> so how did he get a patent!
[15:12:33] <Tom_itx> he applied for one?

[16:25:10] <andypugh> Could be.
[16:25:24] <pfred1> perhaps?
[16:25:45] <pfred1> andypugh how's rain?
[16:26:05] <andypugh> The relationship between Ubuntu versions, kernel versions and rtai versions is a source of bafflement to me
[16:26:44] <pfred1> I think LinuxCNC should go Arch or Gentoo
[16:26:45] <andypugh> It hasn't actually rained today. I think that is the first day this month
[16:27:41] <pfred1> man it is dry as dust here it drizzled a little in the morning but not enough to even wet the ground
[16:27:57] <pfred1> we're losing our whole corn crop the whole state
[16:27:59] <andypugh> pfred1: I think the idea of the liveCD being on Ubuntu is to lower the barrier to Windows folk. If you know which flavour you prefer, you probably know how to roll your own LinuxCNC
[16:28:09] <pfred1> the whole world os going to be real hungry this year
[16:28:30] <pfred1> oh I built mine on Debian
[16:28:39] <pfred1> I'm not saying there shouldn't be a live image
[16:28:51] <andypugh> And the Rio Summit achieved absolutely nothing except 45,000 people flying to Rio.
[16:29:03] <pfred1> but the Ubuntu repo I mean it seems to be headed in its own direction
[16:29:48] <pfred1> did you know that Ubuntu distances itself from the word Linux?
[16:30:03] <Tom_itx> pfred1 naw, they hoard it but it will drive the prices up
[16:30:20] <pfred1> Tom_itx oh the prices are going to go up
[16:30:39] <pfred1> but there will be places we won't even be able to ship to the way things are looking
[16:30:49] <pfred1> it is bad we're plawing fields under now
[16:30:52] <pfred1> plowing even
[16:31:10] <pfred1> I never seen fields plowed under this time of year
[16:31:18] <pfred1> its already over
[16:31:43] <andypugh> pfred1: Too wet or too dry?
[16:31:48] <pfred1> too dry
[16:31:51] <pfred1> too hot
[16:32:02] <jthornton> I'm working through this tutorial on glade but it doesn't say where to put the code at the end
[16:32:03] <jthornton> http://www.overclock.net/t/342279/tutorial-using-python-glade-to-create-a-simple-gui-application
[16:32:04] <andypugh> We had a very hot march, then a frost, so the fruit trees flowered then died. That was a bad start.
[16:32:12] <pfred1> corn standing there looking like it is october already all burnt to nothing
[16:32:42] <pfred1> and it isn't even bad here compared to the breadbasket
[16:32:51] <pfred1> out in the midwest forget about it
[16:33:46] <andypugh> jthornton: I think you choose the python code file name as the action for a GUI control
[16:33:46] <pfred1> I've been checking out gambas lately for programming
[16:33:58] <pfred1> anyone here looked at gambas?
[16:34:00] <jthornton> ok, thanks
[16:34:10] <pfred1> it is a visual basic clone
[16:34:28] <pfred1> aptitude install gambas2
[16:35:27] <pfred1> for a quick and dirty gui hack it can't be beat

[19:24:14] <WillenCMD> hello hello!
[19:25:17] <pfred1> hi
[19:25:46] <WillenCMD> slow day on here?
[19:25:58] <pfred1> no slower than any other
[19:26:28] <pfred1> I got something that was on my list today
[19:26:40] <pfred1> it ain't a great one but it should do
[19:26:46] <WillenCMD> how long is your list? :)
[19:26:54] <pfred1> not very long really
[19:26:58] <pfred1> but I always add to it
[19:27:08] <WillenCMD> what did you get?
[19:27:20] <pfred1> I got one of those hand drill guide slide things
[19:27:26] <archivist> that sort of list only grows!
[19:27:49] <pfred1> you know you mount a hand drill on it and it has these rods and a base and you push the drill on it?
[19:28:02] <WillenCMD> like a mag drill?
[19:28:13] <pfred1> I mean I got a drill press and my mill but sometimes I don't want to put stuff onto those
[19:28:23] <pfred1> no not a beam driller
[19:28:30] <toastyde1th> a drill guide.
[19:28:33] <pfred1> this thing I'll find a pic
[19:28:41] <toastyde1th> makes sure the hand drill is 90 deg to the surface
[19:28:50] <WillenCMD> oh i gotcha
[19:28:52] <Tom_itx> oh a laser guide?
[19:29:00] <Tom_itx> mmm
[19:29:02] <toastyde1th> no, a physical guide
[19:29:04] <WillenCMD> like lewis and clark? but for drills
[19:29:05] <pfred1> I think this is the exact one I got http://www.tb3.com/tesla/sparkgaps/DrillGuide.jpg
[19:29:06] <toastyde1th> http://www.amazon.com/General-36-37-Precision-Drill/dp/B00004T82L
[19:29:08] <toastyde1th> like this
[19:29:11] <pfred1> looks a heck of a lot like it
[19:29:33] <pfred1> good thing I saw the pic too
[19:29:41] <pfred1> now i know how to do angles with it
[19:29:52] <andypugh> I took a picture of it, I was so pleased with mysefl: https://picasaweb.google.com/108164504656404380542/CNCUnsorted#5645268349766191922 and the following one. Completely hand-held. Well, the drill anyway. The bolt was in a vice.
[19:30:22] <pfred1> what is that a crack pipe?
[19:30:36] <pfred1> whats going on there?

[19:31:29] <pfred1> toastyde1th I actually need mine to redrill holes for a bench i need to repair for the legs
[19:31:44] <pfred1> so not 90 degrees but some repeatable accuracy is required
[19:32:13] <andypugh> pfred1: Were you asking me?
[19:32:17] <pfred1> that bench has been sitting in my shop for a while now I even thought about trying to toss it up onto my mill
[19:32:33] <pfred1> andypugh yeah that paraphenallia picture you posted a link to
[19:32:54] <pfred1> I heard about you brits!
[19:32:55] <andypugh> Just a bolt I drilled a hole down the middle of.
[19:33:10] <Tom_itx> it's a fuse hole for a cannon
[19:33:19] <andypugh> Before I got a lathe, or a bench drill.
[19:33:25] <pfred1> I still have a head bolt I had to drill out of a block
[19:33:31] <andypugh> I have actually forgotten what it was for.
[19:33:41] <pfred1> man that was touch and go
[19:34:08] <pfred1> danged thing broke like a quarter of an inch below the deck
[19:34:13] <pfred1> I was like oh no my car!
[19:35:07] <pfred1> I donno why they call them easy outs it never seems easy whenever I have to use one
[19:35:34] <Tom_itx> how would it be without it?
[19:36:04] <pfred1> helicoil
[19:36:33] <pfred1> after I drilled it I was like torching that block for about 2 hours before I even tried budging it
[19:37:20] <andypugh> How does one remove the Ubuntu loading screen and see the boot messages scrolling past instead?
[19:37:28] <pfred1> headbolt went between 2 exhaust ports it was born to fail
[19:37:53] <pfred1> good question I know you can do it
[19:38:01] <andypugh> You used an EZ-Out on something you wanted to keep? Blimey that was brave!
[19:38:08] <pfred1> the one great thing about ubuntu is it is easily googable
[19:38:18] <Jymmm> http://urobotics.urology.jhu.edu/projects/BW/
[19:38:22] <Tom_itx> it's in settings i believe
[19:38:29] * Tom_itx looks again
[19:38:48] <andypugh> Yes, googling "arch" won't work at all well.
[19:38:55] <pfred1> andypugh well it was either easy out or scrap the car
[19:39:26] <pfred1> I don't think they give you any extra head bolts
[19:40:02] <andypugh> Yes, but, EZ-outs are smaller than the bolt that broke. So, how are they meant to be stronger than the bolt that broke?
[19:40:26] <pfred1> less fatigued I guess
[19:40:39] <andypugh> Even if they are made of infinitely strong steel, the bolt now has a hole in the middle, so that is weaker than the bolt that broke.
[19:40:49] <pfred1> I've had them not work more than I've had them work
[19:40:53] <pfred1> then I end up retapping
[19:41:31] <andypugh> I am glad it worked for you, but they mainly snap off and leave you with a undrillable bit of hardened steel and spark-erosion bill.
[19:41:38] <pfred1> I think that is the object to weaken the broken bit so you can get it out
[19:42:01] <andypugh> It is much more reliable to drill the bolt out (and a left-hand drill is a good idea)
[19:42:10] <pfred1> when we used to break taps in the machine shop I worked in we'd chisel them out
[19:42:19] <pfred1> make chisels out of beat reamers
[19:42:31] <pfred1> you'd just shatter the junk out
[19:42:47] <andypugh> In your case, you could have made a guide that fitted in the top of the hole to centre the drill, too.
[19:43:26] <andypugh> Yeah, I have smashed up a few taps myself. It's easier with big ones than little ones, though.
[19:43:30] <pfred1> that is the key to make an easy out work center it

[19:45:30] <atom1> modify the value of the preference keys in the /apps/gnome-session/options/ location. For example, if you do not want users ever to see a

[19:54:17] <WillenCMD> nevermind
[19:54:18] <pfred1> only way is to edit the grub command line
[19:54:39] <pfred1> nosplash on it should work I don't know why it won't tacceit it and just boot
[19:54:45] <pfred1> accept it even

[20:00:07] <pfred1> what does quiet do?
[20:00:53] <pfred1> this is strange I have no grub manual page?
[20:03:16] <pfred1> hmm this sounds dangerous grub-editenv - edit GRUB environment block
[20:04:12] <andypugh> Hmm, very odd.
[20:04:40] <pfred1> I think the last time I passed parameters to a Linux kernel I was still running lilo
[20:04:51] <pfred1> I don't think I've ever done it for grub
[20:05:15] <andypugh> It boots to the stage of loading USB thingies, then stops. But if you plug and unplug USB devices, it notices them and prints IDs etc to screen.
[20:05:19] <pfred1> just never has come up
[20:05:30] <pfred1> that is strange

[20:09:34] <pfred1> I hate uuid
[20:09:40] <andypugh> Well, this is with the rtai kernel installed using the script.
[20:10:28] <pfred1> you can get around uuid by labeling your partitions
[20:10:53] <pfred1> not sure how that applies to live images though
[20:11:42] <pfred1> I wonder if you can label a CD I think you can
[20:12:51] <andypugh> I am not booting from LiveCD now.
[20:13:01] <andypugh> This is booting from the drive in the machine.
[20:13:34] <pfred1> have you changed your boot drive?
[20:14:11] <pfred1> no that doesn't make sense then you wouldn't be booting now would you
[20:14:43] <pfred1> reload grub

[20:17:49] <pfred1> this is driving me nuts i can't remember what it is called
[20:18:16] <andypugh> I have no idea wha you are going to suggest even.
[20:18:34] <andypugh> I think the problem is probably in the kernel options.
[20:19:11] <pfred1> it sounds like your fstab is cooked could be a grub config file too

[20:25:05] <pfred1> still driving me nuts because this isn't even how I used to do it
[20:25:08] <andypugh> Did I mention that the machine still boots fine with the kernel it came with?
[20:25:26] <pfred1> oh then you neder ran update-grub
[20:25:30] <pfred1> never even
[20:25:44] <pfred1> OK this is a local kernel you built?
[20:26:17] <pfred1> you might have forotten to include your root filesystem support
[20:26:27] <pfred1> that is a popular one that stops you cold
[20:27:05] <andypugh> It came with kernels 2.6.30-vortex86mx-apm and 2.6.24-16-generic.
[20:27:16] <andypugh> The first will boot it, the second won't
[20:27:44] <pfred1> how did you install the kernel did you do it the debian way? which automates installing the modules and making your initrd
[20:27:51] <andypugh> I booted with the vortex one, ran the LinuxCNC install script, and that added 2.6.24-16-rtai
[20:28:24] <andypugh> But that won't boot either. Not that surprising considering that the vanilla unpatched version didn't either.
[20:28:33] <pfred1> check in /lib/modules make sure someone didn't stomp out the other guy's modules
[20:28:46] <andypugh> And AFAIK the LinuxCNC install script uses debs
[20:28:57] <pfred1> if you have two kernels same version they'll share the modules directory
[20:29:05] <pfred1> which isn't good
[20:29:20] <pfred1> because the modules will only work for one kernel
[20:29:44] <andypugh> It still boots happily into Ubuntu with the vortex kernel
[20:29:46] <pfred1> well there is a way to possibly make them work but it isn't the default
[20:29:58] <pfred1> because it is a different version has its own modules dir
[20:30:14] <pfred1> module stomping ia bad
[20:30:22] <andypugh> I don't understand
[20:30:33] <pfred1> 2.6.24-16
[20:30:45] <pfred1> 2.6.24-16-rtai
[20:30:57] <pfred1> 2.6.24-16-generic
[20:31:01] <andypugh> Before I installed 2.6.24-16-rtai it wouldn't boot from 2.6.24-16-generic.
[20:31:19] <pfred1> I think installing one stomped on the other's modules
[20:31:36] <andypugh> It has only ever booted from 2.6.30-vortex86mx-apm
[20:31:54] <pfred1> although hmm I'm thinking look in /boot at your initrds
[20:31:56] -!- cei [cei!~cei@76.235.210.63] has joined #linuxcnc
[20:31:58] <andypugh> It still only boots from the vortex kernel
[20:32:05] <pfred1> because boot should run off initrd
[20:32:27] <pfred1> it shouldn't even go fishing in /lib/modules
[20:32:47] <pfred1> I think your initrd might be broken
[20:32:54] <cei> Is there any way to view the status of all parallel port pins?
[20:32:56] <pfred1> that is what loads the drivers yo uneed in order to boot
[20:33:06] <pfred1> cei yes
[20:33:24] <pfred1> there's an app for that
[20:33:48] <andypugh> cei http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Parallel_Port_Tester

[20:34:28] <cei> thanks!
[20:34:44] <pfred1> andypugh just look in /boot and see what is there
[20:34:46] <andypugh> I think it looks more like a problem in the kernels
[20:34:56] <pfred1> well that is where your kernel is
[20:35:01] <pfred1> it is in /boot
[20:35:16] <pfred1> but along with that will be your system map files and initrds
[20:35:48] <andypugh> You realise this is all gibberish to me?
[20:35:56] <pfred1> doesn't matter just go look
[20:36:15] <andypugh> I am waiting for it to drop to shell again
[20:36:30] <pfred1> I thought you had one good booting kernel?
[20:36:40] <pfred1> use it not the broken ones
[20:37:03] <andypugh> Now I need to decise which way is faster..
[20:37:12] <pfred1> you say you installed this kernel with a script
[20:37:38] <cei> andypugh, That tool shows my first parallel port, but not my second. Is there a premade tool that would show both or should I modify this tool?
[20:37:42] <pfred1> is the basic system Ubuntu?
[20:38:07] <andypugh> cei: Let me look at the files
[20:38:17] <pfred1> that thing has to be python
[20:38:29] <pfred1> all them little gewgaws are
[20:39:06] <cei> no python that i can see!
[20:39:12] <pfred1> it isn't?

[20:39:43] <cei> I see, thanks
[20:39:49] <pfred1> it sounds like they wish to view all at once
[20:40:11] <pfred1> can't pop up more than one at a time?
[20:40:11] <cei> meh, It's easy enough to switch addresses
[20:40:19] <andypugh> To view two at a time, hmm, I don't think you can without adding a second set of LEDs to the XML file
[20:40:27] <pfred1> ah
[20:40:37] <cei> If I really need it I can figure that out
[20:41:12] <pfred1> andypugh in any event boot your "good" kernel yo ucan fix the broken one better from it
[20:41:29] <pfred1> the beauty of Linux is you can always have a good kernel
[20:41:35] <andypugh> cei: You _could_ duplicate the XML with different names for the LEDs, then duplicate all the "net" commands in the HAL for parport.1.xxx and add both addresses to the loart hal_parport line

[20:43:32] <pfred1> I have 3 kernels that are all the same version on this machine but due to revisions they have 3 unique names
[20:43:46] <andypugh> pfred1: What should I look at?
[20:43:54] <pfred1> you're in /boot?
[20:44:18] <andypugh> I have 3x config, 3x initrd and 3xSystem and 3xvmlinuz
[20:44:32] <pfred1> andypugh do you have an initrd.img for each kernel?
[20:44:40] <pfred1> OK 3 of each
[20:45:06] <andypugh> And a .bak of one of the initrd
[20:45:07] <pfred1> that means your revision names are saving you from overwriting
[20:45:42] <andypugh> I would have thought that I would have seen the problem before, on other machines, if the rtai-kernel didn't play nice
[20:48:40] <pfred1> if it was me I'd try update-grub again
[20:49:01] <pfred1> something went bad on the kernel install unless as yo usay the kernel is just bum
