thinking to buy 3d printer lately. awesome thing for DIY stuff
<naquad>
but pretty expensive still
<Guest354>
which of the cubieboards have an eeprom for storing eth mac adress?
<mateobur>
naquad, nah, get a friend that has one
<mateobur>
:)
<naquad>
lol
<naquad>
i've got a guy that prints stuff for money
<naquad>
but he's busy all the time, then out of plastic, ...
<Guest354>
well
<Guest354>
I have to admit I've got no idea how I would do it
<Guest354>
but I need something to allow me to acces some files over internet
<naquad>
nginx?
<Guest354>
and a NAS is overkill, since those files arent that big that many
<Guest354>
if getting a cubieboard, which I understand is a decelopment board is a bad idea
<Guest354>
how would I do it?
<naquad>
apt-get install nginx. configure and enjoy your files via http
<Guest354>
I'm asking about the hardware part
<naquad>
ah
<naquad>
sorry then, can't say much here
<Guest354>
I need something low powered, with a sata hdd, and ethernet
<mateobur>
Guest354, maybe a raspberry pi?
<Guest354>
I'm not sure raspberry has sata
<mateobur>
I think a cubie is fine
<mateobur>
you just need an SSH server
<mateobur>
wich is going to work for sure
<Guest354>
cool
<Guest354>
then there's the issue of the power running out, happens sometimes
<mateobur>
that's a complete different problem
<mateobur>
batteries...
<Guest354>
and the reason I am mentioning this is, the cubietruck
<Guest354>
it has both a rtc battery and li-battery connector

<Guest354>
the cubietruck is not out yet, but it has allmost the same hardware as cubieboard2.
<Guest354>
should I wait for cubietruck, or go with cubieboard2?

vectory, I'm guessing what to do with it xD
<naquad>
i've built a kernel from sunxi source using their build.sh script, but in result lib/modules/xxx/ i see all modules piled together and there are no modules.builtin and modules.order. what am i doing wrong?
<naquad>
patched build_sun4i.sh, fixed the way it was packing modules. all good now

naquad: i built the 3d printer myself
<buZz>
only ~450 euros
<naquad>
buZz, cool. i'm thinking about the same. did you manually made pcbs or just bought parts and put them together
<naquad>
?
<buZz>
i bought parts
<buZz>
mine is a prusa i2
<buZz>
but i recommend building a prusa i3
<buZz>
its cheaper and bigger
vinifr_ has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
<buZz>
also less parts and easier to build

oookay, so how do i start with connecting an LVDS panel? i got a "baseboard" thing with a connector, so the physical part is done
<aep>
but obviously the kernel detects no lvds ouputs whatsoever
<aep>
i doubt that stuff works without configuring something anyway

Does someone know if the microphone jack of the cubieboard is mono or stereo ?
<popolon>
I know that some apple smartphone devices have stereo mic jack, and that lot of android smartphone devices have mono mic jack
<popolon>
the stereo mic is a + for sound recording with good microphone
