| qwebirc27384 | Hello? | 03:53 |
|---|---|---|
| qwebirc27384 | I am here about unbricking my Ben Nanonote | 03:53 |
| qwebirc27384 | Anyone here? | 03:54 |
| wolfspraul | hye | 03:59 |
| wolfspraul | hey :-) | 03:59 |
| wolfspraul | that was too quick... | 04:00 |
| zrafa | wolfspraul: is that nick something known..? I have read that prefix "qwebirc" several times | 04:11 |
| wolfspraul | that's from people that come in over freenode's web chat | 04:11 |
| wolfspraul | and the url we have in the /webchat redirect it to use an 'auto-nick' | 04:11 |
| wolfspraul | you can try :-) | 04:11 |
| zrafa | ah.. okey :) | 04:12 |
| wolfspraul | http://en.qi-hardware.com/webchat | 04:12 |
| wolfspraul | maybe we should remove the auto-nick | 04:12 |
| wolfspraul | because people have to enter the captcha anyway, they may also enter a nick for themselves | 04:12 |
| wolfspraul | but the less they have to enter the better I think | 04:12 |
| wolfspraul | well, we try to bring people together, not so easy | 04:12 |
| wolfspraul | many of the webchat guys may have never been in an irc group before and don't know the customs | 04:12 |
| zrafa | nice... another interesting web for irc chat is http://webchat.freenode.net/ but we need to explain how to join to the channel | 04:12 |
| wolfspraul | that's the same | 04:12 |
| zrafa | yeah | 04:13 |
| zrafa | I do not know which is the panic for that people who say "hello" and then after one minute without answers they run :) | 04:13 |
| zrafa | I suppose that something similar with me before to ask mailing list something I do not understand. It takes me several days or weeks before I am confident to ask | 04:15 |
| wolfspraul | they just don't know. need to find ways to explain this better, maybe some chat client I install on the Qi server, don't know. | 04:36 |
| kyak | jow_lapt1p: thanks! :) | 07:16 |

| qwebirc46206 | Hello? | 22:35 |
| qwebirc46206 | I am here about unbricking my Ben Nanonote | 22:36 |
| qwebirc46206 | this is Cenobyte | 22:36 |
| qwebirc46206 | I guess I'll wait a while... | 22:38 |
| kristianpaul | Hello | 22:38 |
| kristianpaul | When your power up yout nanonote you got a message or just blank screen? | 22:38 |
| qwebirc46206 | blank screen | 22:40 |
| kristianpaul | ok do you remenber the rubber thing came within the nanonote box? | 22:40 |
| qwebirc46206 | ya | 22:40 |
| kristianpaul | The idea to follow is first got usb boot mode | 22:41 |
| kristianpaul | Then reflash | 22:41 |
| kristianpaul | I dont do this all days, so i'm going to follow http://en.qi-hardware.com/wiki/USB_BOOT_mode | 22:41 |
| kristianpaul | okay? | 22:41 |
| qwebirc46206 | i have gone to usb mode or at least tried with power+U key | 22:41 |
| qwebirc46206 | nothing shows on lsusb | 22:41 |
| qwebirc46206 | usbboot complains no xburst device found | 22:42 |
| kristianpaul | power+U works when you have uboot wich is a software can be damaghe | 22:42 |
| kristianpaul | damaged* | 22:42 |
| kristianpaul | when this happen you got that blank screen | 22:42 |
| kristianpaul | but no panic | 22:42 |
| qwebirc46206 | ok so the hardware way is fool proof? | 22:42 |
| kristianpaul | yes | 22:42 |
| qwebirc46206 | what if I lost the rubber thing? | 22:42 |
| kristianpaul | you can still boot by shorting the usb boot pinds | 22:42 |
| kristianpaul | pins** | 22:43 |
| kristianpaul | please remove your battery | 22:43 |
| qwebirc46206 | with what though? | 22:43 |
| kristianpaul | battery out as when you do on you cellphone i guess :) | 22:43 |
| qwebirc46206 | the battery is out | 22:44 |
| kristianpaul | good, do you see the the two usb boot pins? | 22:44 |
| qwebirc46206 | ya | 22:45 |
| kristianpaul | The idea is to short then with the carbonized rubber button | 22:45 |
| qwebirc46206 | does short mean connect? | 22:45 |
| kristianpaul | yes in some manner :) | 22:45 |
| qwebirc46206 | so would a strip of foil work too? | 22:46 |
| kristianpaul | it *could* but the rubber thing is more effective | 22:46 |
| qwebirc46206 | ok i'll try to find it | 22:46 |
| kristianpaul | you said you still having it isnt? | 22:46 |
| kristianpaul | please | 22:46 |
| qwebirc46206 | lol | 22:47 |
| qwebirc46206 | ya i hope i have it... | 22:47 |
| qwebirc46206 | brb | 22:47 |
| kristianpaul | i personally use my screwdriver, but because i feel confident with | 22:47 |
| kristianpaul | qwebirc46206: if you | 22:48 |
| kristianpaul | dont if it, we could try with a paper clip perhaps | 22:48 |
| kristianpaul | s/if/have | 22:49 |
| qwebirc46206 | ok i found it | 22:51 |
| qwebirc46206 | right in my box of old cpu's | 22:51 |
| kristianpaul | good | 22:52 |
| kristianpaul | please in a seperate terminal run watch lsusb (in case you havent) | 22:52 |
| kristianpaul | now lets first with the nanonote unpluged use the rubber thing and push on the boot usb pins | 22:52 |
| kristianpaul | then connect the usb cable | 22:52 |
| kristianpaul | then the lsusb output will now show a line with 601a:4740 if all wen ok | 22:53 |
| kristianpaul | wenT | 22:53 |
| qwebirc46206 | ok great it did | 22:54 |
| qwebirc46206 | it was a simple problem | 22:55 |
| qwebirc46206 | I did not know that power+U was software | 22:55 |
| qwebirc46206 | now I can just reflash again, right? | 22:55 |
| kristianpaul | yes | 22:57 |
| qwebirc46206 | hello? | 22:57 |
| kristianpaul | hello ! | 22:57 |
| qwebirc46206 | ok | 22:57 |
| kristianpaul | go ahead | 22:57 |
| qwebirc46206 | just curious, what do you run on your nano? | 22:58 |
| kristianpaul | yes power+U is handled by uBoot | 22:58 |
| kristianpaul | i like gmu, i use it for connect to servers and transfer files | 22:58 |
| qwebirc46206 | so you use openwrt | 22:59 |
| qwebirc46206 | ? | 22:59 |
| kristianpaul | yes i do | 22:59 |
| kristianpaul | i also use elinks | 22:59 |
| kristianpaul | i have several docs in html | 22:59 |
| qwebirc46206 | I'm looking to run Debian | 22:59 |
| kristianpaul | and mplayer | 22:59 |
| kristianpaul | will be cool, if got at least framebuffer to work | 22:59 |
| qwebirc46206 | I am looking at another project openzipit | 23:00 |
| kristianpaul | i do use mathomatic too | 23:00 |
| qwebirc46206 | which I call the nanonote's evil twin | 23:00 |
| kristianpaul | btw are you running reflash script? | 23:00 |
| qwebirc46206 | no, I do it by hand | 23:00 |
| kristianpaul | as you wish := | 23:00 |
| kristianpaul | :) | 23:00 |
| qwebirc46206 | it never seems to work at least for me | 23:01 |
| kristianpaul | may be using wrong offsets for when writing to flash? | 23:01 |
| qwebirc46206 | so if this happens again, I just bust out that little rubber, right? | 23:01 |
| kristianpaul | yes | 23:01 |
| qwebirc46206 | theoretically the nano is unbrickable? | 23:01 |
| kristianpaul | yes | 23:02 |
| qwebirc46206 | well i may build a custom kernel | 23:02 |
| kristianpaul | there is even a jtag some wher i remenber | 23:02 |
| qwebirc46206 | i was told i would at least have to modify one | 23:02 |
| qwebirc46206 | for soft-float | 23:03 |
