| 09:19.59 | wooy | Hi, got my cubie, yay! I got problem with supplied barrel plug cable. Cubie ran for 20-30 minutes and then just shutdown. When I tried to start it up it didnt run. I was able to boot it only using micro usb. However now it is again supplied with the barrel plug, almost like the power cycle with micro usb fixed something. |
| 09:20.14 | wooy | Anyway, I know that cubie's barrel plug cable is funky ;) |
| 09:40.32 | BigWhoop | you mean miniusb? |
| 09:43.06 | simosx | wooy, did you get that Cubieboard from Indiegogo? |
| 09:49.38 | wooy | BigWhoop: yeah sry |
| 09:49.47 | wooy | simosx: shopify, 1.4.2013 |
| 09:50.44 | wooy | but the barrel cable does supply power again, the strange thing is, it refused to do it before. it got fixed after I power cycle using miniusb |
| 09:51.23 | wooy | its not something I observed more than once, it could be anything |
| 09:51.32 | simosx | wooy, it is possible you got a problematic barrel plug cable. Is the texture of that cable slippery/shiny or rubbery/matte? |
| 09:52.02 | wooy | shiny |

| 09:53.16 | wooy | actually its quite hard to say if its shiny or not, its somewhat shiny somewhat matte. but its very bendable. |
| 09:54.17 | simosx | if it is a very bendable cable, it might be (I repeat: might be) from the bad batch. You would need to get a few more power failures to be sure that the cable is bad. |
| 09:55.12 | simosx | Did you check http://linux-sunxi.org/Cubieboard/FirstSteps ("Connecting the parts")? Talks about the cable behaviour, with videos if I may say ;-) |
| 09:55.54 | wooy | roger that, I actually plan to use my own molex->barrel plug and 3.5" hdd so its not issue. |
| 09:56.46 | wooy | Yeah I saw that, it run for 30 minutes and maybe the culprit is my usb hub... |

| 12:37.41 | wooy | bingo |
| 12:37.49 | Undertasker | Nevertheless, they work with linux |
| 12:37.49 | wooy | that make sense in my scenario |

| 12:56.00 | wooy | the only problem i observerd is that during testing/installing/uninstalling prolific older drivers, all ports from com1 - com256 are listed "in use". Its not a problem, because they are not in use and can be taken over easily, but something messed up. |
| 12:57.34 | Undertasker | Normal windows behaviour |
| 12:57.48 | Undertasker | Every serial port you ever used will remain |

| 13:03.34 | BigWhoop | then he had to use 256 devices :) |
| 13:04.06 | Undertasker | Well, if a driver, by mistake, requests COM255 |
| 13:04.31 | BigWhoop | but thats a driver issue not from windows ;) |
| 13:05.24 | Undertasker | But it's a windows issue to not allow new com ports with a lower number than the highest previously used |
| 13:05.59 | Undertasker | But as I said, can be easily reset |
| 13:06.20 | BigWhoop | got it |
| 13:06.31 | wooy | BigWhoop: actually I think windows was listing the ports up to 520. I have no idea why it did, but it continuously keep listing xD |
| 13:06.37 | Undertasker | I have to do this from time to time, because I use a lot of USB serial devices, and some programms don't allow to choose com ports >64 |
| 13:07.08 | wooy | how do you reset the ports? |

| 17:43.15 | asterick | I tried playing with berryboot last night, but it didn't want to recognize the 2.5' drive I plugged into it (Which I confirmed working by placing in a laptop) |
| 17:44.24 | frop | yo! |
| 17:44.33 | frop | long time I don't drop here :) |

| 17:44.48 | frop | asterick I'm using archlinux-arm |
| 17:44.55 | frop | ...how about your hd... |
| 17:45.02 | frop | ....double check the power supply |
| 17:45.14 | frop | without a GOOD power supply, your HD won't work |
| 17:45.33 | asterick | That's probably a valid point. I was driving it off the board tiself, which was plugged into a 5v usb wall socket |
| 17:45.36 | asterick | might have been undercurrent |
| 17:45.48 | asterick | but I would expect the thing to not post if that were the case |
| 17:45.59 | asterick | (driving a 2.5" SSD using the 5v rail header on the mainboard) |
| 17:46.09 | frop | won't work that way |
| 17:46.19 | frop | usb provides 500mA |
| 17:46.28 | asterick | Well, yes and no. |
| 17:46.35 | wooy | I just wrote something about hdd and cubieboard, especially my intended usage with 3.5 hdd. http://linux-sunxi.org/Cubieboard/HDD |
| 17:46.35 | frop | ...usually a HD, even ssd, will suck much more than that |
| 17:46.52 | asterick | those USB charge wall outlet thing can actually provide much more, which is why they charge things like cell phones faster than a machine |
| 17:47.04 | frop | nope asterick :D |
| 17:47.16 | frop | those wall-mount-charger do not give GOOD power |
| 17:47.22 | asterick | the USB standard says to put a .5A limiter on anything that has requested it, .1A on anything that has not handshaked. |
| 17:47.24 | frop | you'll need a stabilized one |
| 17:47.45 | frop | I talk by experience here...not paper-draft |
| 17:47.56 | asterick | mmk |
| 17:47.58 | asterick | I'll look into that |
| 17:47.59 | frop | I bought a 2.1A charger from amazon |
| 17:48.08 | frop | ...and my disk wasn't working |
| 17:48.25 | asterick | gotcha. It's probably transformer + a switching buck regulator |
| 17:48.29 | frop | ...then, tried a PsP power supply...and magically, the disk was spinning happily |
| 17:48.32 | asterick | which would produce a noisy signal. |
| 17:48.36 | Undertasker | He's right, those china chargers are mostly crap |
| 17:48.37 | pidpawel | im not sure but my /boot is on sata. only bootloader is on sd/nand |
| 17:48.55 | frop | pidpawel that's kinda impossible |
| 17:49.03 | pidpawel | let me check :) |
| 17:49.06 | frop | as uboot has not the ability to read from the sata |
| 17:49.08 | asterick | could even be an inductor + half-rectified AC-DC circuit and some RC filtering |
| 17:49.24 | Undertasker | When you open them, you wonder why your house still hasn't burnt down |
| 17:49.26 | asterick | (which would probably be good enough for charging, but would be crap for everything else) |
| 17:49.29 | frop | asterick: I see you've a grasp about those "electronic" |
| 17:49.43 | frop | once you've understood it...you could write something on the wiki about it :) |
| 17:49.44 | asterick | I have enough that I set things on fire |
| 17:50.15 | frop | Undertasker I bought one of those psp-fake-supply too, from china, for 2$ or so... |
| 17:50.22 | frop | ....turns out...that was crap |
| 17:50.39 | frop | I bought then an original psp supply |
| 17:50.40 | pidpawel | oh. youre right. :) sorry for confusion :) |
| 17:50.55 | frop | dw |
| 17:51.10 | Undertasker | They use transformers for mains voltage that I wouldn't use for nf |
| 17:51.51 | frop | well, I cannot talk about interior of these....I just know that this sony powersupply works fine :D |
| 17:52.22 | frop | even the 1.5A worked good. The one I own is 2A |
| 17:53.08 | frop | at the start I even though that my cubie was somewhat broken... |
| 17:53.20 | frop | ...instead, all problems came from power supply |
| 17:55.59 | Undertasker | That doesn't surprise me |
| 17:57.10 | frop | now all is good...just the sata hd "clicks" every now and then |
| 17:57.27 | Undertasker | USB itself is a horrible plug system that produces micro interruptions. |
| 17:58.04 | Undertasker | Without big capacitors in the devices, it wouldn't work at all |
| 17:58.09 | frop | well, my router is using an USB external disk, as torrent storage...and it works just fine, from months now |
| 17:58.32 | frop | I guess, when you use "HD" most depends on the quality of the provided current |
| 17:59.05 | Undertasker | But big capacitors is what chinese manufacturers avoid, because the cost money |
| 17:59.36 | frop | eheh...so ideally, changing those capacitors would solve these problems? |
| 17:59.49 | Undertasker | I slved many usb problems by soldering additional caps to the plugs |
| 18:00.41 | Undertasker | I have that exact problem now with a usb 3 drive |
| 18:01.14 | Undertasker | When I move the plug, the drive sometimes stops working. |
| 18:02.46 | Undertasker | I'm sure an additional cap will solve this |
| 18:02.46 | frop | and you lose the device for a split second |
| 18:02.46 | frop | yeah, that's kinda normal :) |

| 22:21.03 | A124 | What the ... are people thinking? |
| 22:21.43 | A124 | Or if they need stuff, they should probably specify it. |
| 22:24.13 | A124 | castalla: Who are you looking for? |
| 22:25.36 | castalla | I want to ask about buying from the cubieboard online store - there's a problem there. There's no shipping charge added to purchase. It's impossible to buy anything! |
| 22:26.25 | A124 | What store? |
| 22:26.42 | A124 | castalla: Maybe you need to be logged in |
| 22:26.46 | castalla | cubieboard at shopify |
| 22:27.03 | A124 | The shipping is included I think |
| 22:27.42 | A124 | Not sure, but we talked bout that. I just don't remember. |
| 22:28.18 | *** join/#cubieboard user (~user@82.84.123.133) |
| 22:29.12 | castalla | The estimated shipping charge is 10 USD - the item is only 7.95 USD !!! I can't pay with Paypal as no shipping is added |

| 22:36.14 | A124 | castalla: Interesting. But I guess the shipping might be added afterwards? Not sure.. THough.. I recommend buying the case and the wi-fi adapter :) |
| 22:36.38 | A124 | Ethernet cable running into such a small thing is not a good one. |
| 22:37.33 | castalla | I only need the case |
| 22:40.06 | A124 | Oh. That will get expensive :D |
| 22:40.21 | A124 | You have not bought the case before? .D |
| 22:40.28 | A124 | Or crushed one :D |
| 22:48.03 | castalla | I just tried the purchase with an account - it still just charges 7.95 - no shipping charge listed. - if I only pay for the item what guarantee is there I will ever receive the item? |
| 22:49.48 | A124 | castalla: Don't ask me |
| 22:50.02 | A124 | But it may be possible that the shipping is added after you confirm the price |
| 22:50.06 | A124 | That is possible |
| 22:50.46 | A124 | Because clickicking "Pay" in Paypal is authorization of Paypal only. But the seller has the right to add/change the price after, if he displays another confirmation for that |
| 22:51.22 | A124 | castalla: So I would just buy, and if anything contact Cubieboard stuff ;) |
| 22:51.59 | A124 | Or.. |
| 22:52.06 | A124 | Contact the seller better |
| 22:52.37 | castalla | Okay ... thanks |
