00:19.30prpplaguesorphin: hey
00:19.33prpplaguesorphin: whats up?
01:34.45sorphinprpplague: hey, just got back from dinner w/ missy at her work.. (she works right now still at Target), they have those portable barcode scanner POS devices, she said they're about $1500... spotted the part # off of one of em
01:35.56sorphinPDT6810
01:36.53sorphinSoopaman: oh, not you again, damn canadians..
01:40.41dingbatprpplague say tell me about your tux screen!
01:40.49sorphinheh
01:41.09sorphindingbat: it's a tuxscreen, there's not really much for him to tell you :P
01:41.25dingbatsorphin well, if anythings been done or not, etc. how much he wants
01:43.35sorphindingbat: well, iirc they're just virgin tuxes
01:50.08dingbatyeah i just want to find out
01:51.37sorphindingbat: email might be a good approach too, since activeness of people here on the weekend varies
01:52.27dingbatyeah
01:53.27Idleyea, I want a tux too... :)
01:53.35Idleobviously depending on how much
01:54.05dingbatwell i don't want to buy a bricked one either
01:54.13Idledebricking aint hard
01:54.16dingbati know the j-tongle can un-brick them if it's a firmware issue
01:54.24sorphinuh
01:54.24dingbatbut how do i know if it's a firmware issue.
01:54.37sorphindebricking is easier than you think
01:54.46sorphinesp if you have a 3.3v parallel port like i do
01:54.51Idleheh
01:54.58sorphinworked fine
01:55.10Idle:)
01:55.24dingbatwhich is great and dandy if it's a firmware issue :)
01:55.58sorphindingbat: well, usually if it's 'bricked', it is :P
01:56.07sorphin;)
01:56.56Idle:)
01:57.08Idleif its a hardware issue you either repair it or throw it away
01:58.21sorphinpretty much
01:58.48Idleow that hurt
01:59.01IdleI just rubbed my arm over a piece of broken glass
01:59.12Idleno skin punctures luckily... :s
01:59.18sorphindoh
01:59.24dingbatdrop your crack pipe again?
01:59.26sorphinwell, then keep broken glass away from the keyboard
01:59.59sorphindingbat: i wouldn't be talking about crack pipes, seeing as you're coming from the 'flipflopchopshop' :P
02:01.06dingbati specialize in customizing flip flops
02:01.09dingbatwhat's so big about that? :)
02:01.29sorphinas in foot flipflops or ckt flipflops? :P
02:01.36dingbatwhat's ckt? :)
02:01.46sorphini'd say it's the former then :P
02:01.55sorphinckt = abbreviation for circuit
02:02.13dingbatyeah it's the former :)
02:02.31Idle:)

03:25.50MonMothawhat's there to customize about a flip flop?  Do you turn JKs into Ds, and Ts into JKs?
03:27.01dingbatpffft
03:27.08dingbatyou're not much of an artist are you? :)
03:27.12MonMothaand yes, debricking a tux is pretty simple.  At worst you need some resistors or maybe even a cheap 74 series buffer
03:27.31MonMothaI used an old 74C244 I had laying around
03:28.26MonMothayou do have to take it apart to get to the header, but that's pretty easy
03:32.20sorphinMonMotha: unless you did like me ;)
03:32.55MonMothayeah, I know a lot of people modded theirs to have rear access to the jtag header
03:32.59MonMothathat sounded bad too
03:37.11sorphinMonMotha: you're 0 for 2 today
03:37.36MonMothayup
03:39.09sorphinbored
03:57.53Soopamanholy fuck
04:14.20sorphinSoopaman: what?
04:27.57SoopamanRoy Jones Jr. = knocked the fuck out

04:48.56Soopamanbah
04:49.01Soopamanwhatcha downloading tonight?
04:50.13sorphinSoopaman: nothing.. resetting up windowmaker, out of boredom
05:06.16sorphinstupid windowmaker keeps segv'ing
05:48.32*** join/#elinux monmotha_ (~monmotha@martinbv-3.student.rose-hulman.edu)
06:09.28sorphinanyone else awake?
06:11.31MonMothame
06:12.09sorphinMonMotha: don't suppose you use windowmaker eh?
06:12.32MonMothanope, FVWM
06:13.09sorphincan't figure out why since this X upgrade, even w/ a new install of windowmaker, it sig11's
06:13.51MonMothahum, throw a debugger on it?
06:14.25sorphinand people wonder why i hate using packages for everything :P
06:15.25MonMothanice...
06:15.37MonMothayou should still be able to get some info
06:15.43MonMothait may just be a stupid unchecked EPERM
06:16.09sorphinwell
06:16.31sorphinstraceing just hangs around at at a waiting for input ioctl type thing
06:16.33sorphinso it's useless
06:17.31MonMothathat's why you throw a debugger on it
06:17.35MonMothait will half at the sig11
06:17.39MonMotha*halt
06:17.49sorphinright
06:17.51sorphinand when i do
06:17.52MonMothayou wont' get a very meaningful backtrace of course, but you may be able to get something
06:17.56sorphingdb stops at a 'free'
06:18.51MonMothaok, so bad pointer
06:19.00MonMothayeah, you'll need a meaningful backtrace to do anything more
06:26.29MonMothawatch, it'll work now :()
06:26.30MonMotha:)
06:27.29sorphinwe'll see
06:30.46sorphingood movies tonight on TNT
06:30.51MonMothareally...
06:31.05sorphinmatrix, then animatrix, then johnny neumonic, now spawn
06:31.23sorphinMonMotha: it's scary that the asian chick in the 1st part of animatrix looks so real :P
06:31.57MonMothaI've not seen the animatrix yet
06:32.04MonMothaso mythtv will be recording it when they reshow it
