04:35.17sorphinit linux sees all the mem on both, i'll take 2 ;)
04:35.22prpplaguesorphin: then i can do some tests
04:35.29prpplaguesorphin: ok
04:35.40sorphinsee my bit about A12 ?
04:35.50prpplaguesorphin: earlier today?
04:36.00sorphinwhich pin is which on which thing
04:36.11prpplaguenaw, must have missed it
04:36.15sorphin<sorphin> A12 = RA11 (pin 101)
04:36.18sorphin<sorphin> and on the simm slot it's 29
04:36.23prpplagueahh
04:36.38sorphin*assuming* when he said A12
04:36.40prpplaguecan you remind me tomorrow at the office
04:36.46sorphinhe meant literal, and not counting from 0
04:36.46prpplague?
04:37.15sorphincuz A12 (meaning starting w/ A0) is an RAS# line on most simms
04:37.21sorphinprpplague: ok homer

05:25.00jacquesMonMotha: i have a linux box with 2 NICs - we are using it as a firewall
05:25.17jacquesI did not set it up, but it's using iptabled rules
05:25.44jacquesI need to forward requests for a certain port from outside to a machine on the inside
05:26.30jacquesi found some docs but the commands were not working then I did something that screwed up my port 80 access to the outside so I could not look at docs on the web anymore, but I just undid that
05:26.37bmidgleyBZFlag: do you work for motorola now?
05:26.46jacquesso I am back to square 1
05:28.09jacquesactually maybe I didnt undo that...  :-\
05:28.18jacqueslol
05:28.35jacquesI'm forwarding all port 80 requests form the inside to my machine on the inside   d'oh!
05:28.46MonMothajacques: yep :)
05:29.01MonMothathrow an interface match and/or IP address match (your outside IP addy) on the DNAT line
05:29.15MonMothaI did that to myself once :)
05:29.18MonMothavery fun
05:29.40jacquesMonMotha: thanks!
05:30.04jacquesfirst to figure out how to delete the bad rules
05:32.17MonMothaiptables -D
05:33.17jacquesheh I need to delete the port 80 forward first :-)
05:34.19jacquesi love how the terminology is confusing - -D deletes from the selected chain, but when I put PREROUTING as the chain nameis says no such chain
05:34.25jacquesmayne I also need  a -t nat
05:34.28BZFlagbmidgley: nope. CTO does not qualify as key management or key engineering I guess.
05:34.46jacquesyeah the -t nat helped
05:36.35MonMothajacques: yeah, it assumes filter table unless you specify otherwise
05:36.58MonMothawell, I must be getting to bed

13:52.09sorphinTomW: was wondering when you were gonna appear.. need you confirm a finding of mine ;p
13:52.16TomWwell, one machine down, another to build up today, then I can do some webpal work.
13:52.26TomWk
13:52.56TomWsorphin: what's up
13:53.22sorphinwell, from *my* standpoint
13:53.33sorphinA12 = RA11 = pin 101 on the ARM
13:53.42TomWI spoke with bill danielson (webpal.bigbrd.com) and he has no problem with me mirroring his stuff.
13:53.49sorphinand A12 = A11 = pin 29 on the simm slot
13:54.26TomWI was afraid that someone was going to ask me about that shit: the tux ram wiring...
13:54.49sorphinbased on the fact the arm/simm number starting at 0, and if you go by that and then assume A12 = A12, then you're actually hitting an RAS# line
13:54.50sorphin:P
13:55.03sorphinwhich isn't really a good notion
13:55.54sorphinnow, if you're normal and look at them counting from 0 and think A11 is A12 (the 12th addr line).. then it's A11/NC, which is more logical
13:56.12TomWWell, yes, you can drive a RAS line with and address line and get the expected result.  The address line goes valid before the true CAS line, so you could substitude an address line.
13:56.42TomWs/and address/an address/
13:57.05sorphinheh
13:57.34sorphinmaybe you should look at it then :P
13:57.58sorphinand the 7500 sheet
13:58.21TomWI think the notation that you are seeing deals with the difference between a 12x10 and a 13x9 organization of the ML4LC16 Micron device.  Micron offers that device in the 8K & 4K refresh (13 column / 12 column)
13:59.16sorphinjust the 2 spec sheets (jedec vs cirrus 7500)
13:59.24TomWThe same was true of the DRAM sticks that you could put in a PC.  The sticks were either 8K / 4K refresh.  The "refresh" is tied directly to the number of columns.
14:00.25sorphinright
14:00.27TomW_ALL_ PC's had to "test" the RAM to determine which organiztion the DRAM Modules used, that is part of the POST (Power On System Test).
14:01.25TomWIn the embedded world, we don't usually concern ourselves with the DRAM organization, as the manufacturer of the board has already made the design determination as to which device(s) they will support and soldered them onto the board for us.
14:02.07sorphinmy only "confusion" comes in w/ bigbrd boy, whether he means A0-A13 -literal- A12, or A11, A12 (A11 being the 12th addr line)
14:02.31TomWsorphin: except when it comes to people like us who are adding more ram to a finished design (hacking it), now we have to consider the ram organization and possibly reprogramming of the DRAM controller.
14:03.28TomWsorphin: I haven't yet delved into the webpal to see how it is wired.
14:03.50sorphinheh
14:04.07TomWsorphin: that will be one of the primary areas that I will hit first is how the FLASH & DRAM are attached to the processor.
14:04.12sorphinyou can tell looking at the spec sheets
14:04.17TomWs/attached/wired/
14:04.22sorphinit's just whether HE was being literal or not
14:04.33sorphini suppose i could look right now since mine is open
14:04.56TomWhmmm, I haven't gone that deeply into it yet.  
14:06.28TomWI think I know what you are talking about as there was a mention about A12 missing from the RAM socket, wasn't there?
14:07.03sorphinyes
14:07.09*** join/#elinux GPSFan (~kenm@65.114.238.130)
14:07.09sorphinwhich A12 would allow 4k
14:07.15sorphinwhereas w/o it's 2k
14:08.52TomWthen the organization would be 11x11
14:09.17TomWthat was a valid organization for the Tux, if you recall.
14:09.26TomWs/Tux/SA1100/
14:09.35sorphinwell, 4k is what most simms you can find are
14:09.53TomWWell, I do have some 72pin 16Meg simms here...
14:09.56sorphinas prpplague found while doing his dual bank testing..
14:10.05sorphinhe found some 32s that appear to work
14:10.17sorphinwon't know for sure till he builds his serial toy today and throws linux on
14:10.21sorphinsince it'll report memory
14:11.52sorphinok, off to commute to work... bbl
14:13.49TomWhuh, I don't see anything in the PS7500FE manual about changing the DRAM organization.
14:15.04TomWOh shit
14:15.15TomWIt is only an 11x11 organization.
14:23.53TomWbatteries are dead in the HEX calculator so I cannot "think" today.  :(
14:29.55TomWfile: yeah, I wish, I went to radio shack and CVS drug looking for new ones...  but...
14:30.41TomWFrustrating that only a cheap-o $5 calculator from WalMart is the only one I found that can do Hex math!
14:31.15TomWI have a Casio scientific, but that is missing Logical operations on it.
14:34.37TomWah, kcalc is what I need.
14:35.12filecome on Mr. Postman, deliver my mail
14:38.18TomWfile: what'cha waiting on?
14:38.38fileTomW: a Multimedia Card for my MP3 Player, PCI USB Controller, and a new mouse
14:40.06TomWsorphin: since there are four RAS lines, perhaps we can "trick" the processor into thinking we have two banks of memory installed.
14:40.32CosmicPenguinGood morning world!
14:40.36fileCosmicPenguin: hi
14:40.43TomWsorphin: each bank is only 16bits wide x 8Meg deep which would be a total of 16Meg per bank.
14:41.32TomWsorphin: that way, we can take a 32Meg SODIMM / DIMM and make it appear as two seperate 16Meg banks.
14:41.50TomWsorphin: ?
14:42.12TomWsorphin: I need to see a schematic to "think" it out.
14:42.35TomWCosmicPenguin: about time you dragged your lazy butt out into the world!  heh
14:43.04TomWCosmicPenguin:  We'all been here for 10 minutes or so already...
14:45.44TomWwell, I have another machine to build up, once I get this thing delivered (tomorrow hopefully), I can start tinkering with the webpal.  bbl
15:06.02CosmicPenguinSo whats the news with the memory?
15:06.13CosmicPenguinsorphin: still don't think you can have something useful with 4MB of memory?  :)

19:11.21kergothah
19:14.35kergothburritos, man, that sounds good
19:18.41Russ|werkanybody remember who designed the shanip mods?
19:29.11CosmicPenguinRuss|werk: SpaceCoaster was in on it
19:29.12file[desk]my boss is calling Futureshop... about my order
19:29.21CosmicPenguinHaven't seen him around in about a year
19:34.05Russ|werkhmmm...do you know which shanip mod I should do?
19:50.42GPSFanRuss|werk: the original mod came via BZFlag. Then Gork, SpaceCoaster & I hacked on it a while reducing the complexity. Shanip3 was an attempt to reduce the component count so that it could be easily built without a PCB.
19:54.44Russ|werkGPSFan: so if I were to produce a pcb, which mod should I use?
19:54.55Russ|werkGPSFan: shanip1, because its the most complex?
19:59.58GPSFanRuss|werk: the problem with Shanip1 was that the op amp gain was too high, and was overdriving the A/D input on the UCB1200.
20:00.45Russ|werkso can't you just put a different feedback loop thingy on there and get a smaller gain?
20:00.55Russ|werkchange your resistors around
20:01.26GPSFanRuss|werk: there are 2 audio paths involved, SPKR out to T/R IN and T/R out to MIC in. both have to be AC coupled and attenuated so as to not overload the input circuits.
20:03.04GPSFanRuss|werk: the LM386 is fixed gain, thus the R5/R6 atten on it's input. As I remember the comments from those that built the original Shanip complained of very distorted audio.
20:04.12Russ|werkdo you want to do a bit of redesign before I stamp these things?
20:07.17GPSFanRuss|werk: I built a shanip3 on the back of mu tux board, it's in pieces waiting for another round tuit. At onetime Gork had most of a VOIP solution running but never got around to releasing it.
20:07.54GPSFanRuss|werk: let me look over the schematics a bit tonight and see if there is anything I would change.
20:08.19Russ|werkI'm going to make a panel with jtag stuff, shanip stuff, and some rs232 level converters for the webpal

21:37.03GPSFanRuss|werk: I put together a pair of block diagrams that show a simplified view of Shanip2 and Shanip3, they are at: http://tuxscreen.net/download/schematics/shanip2bd.pdf and http://tuxscreen.net/download/schematics/shanip3bd.pdf
21:37.24sorphinGPSFan: from what i read
21:37.31sorphinshanip3 was "experimental"
21:39.22GPSFansorphin: yep, because that's what I put in the wiki description.
21:39.39MonMothahas anyone hacked a mic input into the shanip...I assume it wouldn't be too difficult, btu I suck at analog stuff
21:43.49Russ|werkwhat about volume control?
21:50.40GPSFanRuss|werk: the UCP1200 has adjustable gains in the speaker amp and mic input path, neither of which are used in the original design, alternately one or the other of the fixed attenuators on the Shanip3 could be made variable.  
21:56.31GPSFanRuss|werk: Gork did an ExpressPCB layout that had a volume control for the audio jack output, he also had one with a MAX232 on it.

22:22.31Russ|werkone SO-20 octal buffer
22:22.37Russ|werkone 0805 decoupling cap
22:22.55GPSFanRuss|werk i've looked over shanip2 vs 3 and I'd go with 3. The audio output is isolated in 3, and the cap between micgnd on the UCB1200 and T/R OUT- is not needed.

23:37.36MonMothaRuss|werk: any suggesstions on adding a mic jack (so we'd have both line out and mic in)?
23:37.39MonMothafor things like headsets
23:38.05Russ|werk*shurg*, there is already a handset, plug a headset into that
23:38.30MonMothawell, my headset has traditional 1/8" plugs
23:38.47MonMothaand I just thought it would be nice to be able to ahve the handset (possibly auto switch between them somehow too)
23:39.14MonMothaer headset
23:39.41MonMotha(ie, have them both plugged in at the same time, dunno what criteria would be used to switch between them)

23:43.16MonMothaRuss|werk: now that's small
23:43.44MonMothaand I was impressed with cramming a shanip2 into 1.5"x1.5" on a protoboard
23:43.58Russ|werkshanip3 has less components
23:44.12MonMothatrue
23:44.13Russ|werk8 of them to be exact
23:44.33MonMothaand of course, I was using rather ;arge components on a proto board :)
23:44.48MonMothawhich is also what I built my 2nd serial port mod on
