00:33.48 | Russ | heh, another cool feature of epia boards, you don't need a monitor to fix them, just plug in the svidio |
00:38.11 | file | I had to pull my fileserver out today and hook a monitor up... I rebooted it, and it didn't come back on the network |
00:38.17 | file | had to fsck everything... bleh |
00:40.07 | Russ | hmm...it goes to vesafb and the picture goes away |
00:40.13 | Russ | thats no good |

03:37.04 | ab0oo | have you ever JTAGed a TuxScreen? |
03:37.13 | TimRiker | yes. |
03:37.50 | TimRiker | quite a few. I use the holly gates dongle and jflash |
03:38.02 | TimRiker | try reading first and if that's ok, then writing should work. |
03:38.20 | TimRiker | I only jflash blob then use blob to do the filesystem |
03:38.24 | ab0oo | I can read, but the dump from the read looks, erm, corrupted. |
03:38.30 | TimRiker | you can do the whole thing, but it's slow. |
03:38.40 | ab0oo | I get a different checksum every time I flash the blob... |
03:38.43 | TimRiker | does it boot? |
03:38.51 | ab0oo | No, gray screen, no serial output. |
03:38.52 | TimRiker | ie: how did you get here? |
03:39.33 | ab0oo | was trying to reflash the blob and I apparantly didn't get all of the memory blocks unlocked with the 12V correctly (some were, some weren't), and after one reboot, BAM, no screen. |
03:40.20 | TimRiker | you were using inferno (sboot) to flash? |
03:40.28 | TimRiker | your blob image is < 32k ? |
03:40.41 | ab0oo | Nah, I had Linux on it, and was trying to flash to a newer blob. |
03:40.45 | ab0oo | probably not. |
03:40.52 | ab0oo | I'm trying v.4 right now. |
03:41.08 | TimRiker | once Linux is on it, all the blocks should be unlocked. |
03:41.21 | ab0oo | but I get a different checksum. Also, my "device id" from the JTAG is a constantly moving target, i.e.: |
03:41.37 | TimRiker | sounds like a cabling issue. |
03:41.43 | ab0oo | [root@kcnopc24 jflash]# ./flash < ./tuxscreen-blob error, failed to read device ID ACT: 1111 1110000000000000 00000001001 1 EXP: X001 0001000010000100 00000110101 1 |
03:42.00 | ab0oo | hmm, missing the "\n"'s in there... |
03:42.13 | ab0oo | cabling, i.e. jtag to tux? |
03:42.21 | TimRiker | shorten up the cables, and try using smaller cables. A ribbon cable works much better than wires. |
03:43.17 | ab0oo | I'm using a 6 inch ribbon cable, the bare ribbons are soldered directly to the JTAG pins (I figured they're long enough to sink the heat before I fried the chip on the jtag) |
03:43.36 | TimRiker | http://www.TuxScreen.net/img/mvc-613f.jpg <- note the ribbon cable. |
03:43.49 | ab0oo | the other end uses a gold-plated 13pin header. |
03:43.56 | ab0oo | Mine's MUCH shorter than that. |
03:44.25 | TimRiker | you ran the wires through the board, yes? |
03:44.33 | TimRiker | some contacts are on the other side iirc |
03:45.16 | TimRiker | 13 pin header on the board... then a connector to the ribbon cable? |
03:45.18 | ab0oo | yes, the pins of the header are soldered to the pads on the board... Hmm, I think all pads are on the same side. I could be wrong here.... |
03:45.36 | TimRiker | pads? there are holes. |
03:46.07 | TimRiker | http://www.TuxScreen.net/img/rimg0004.jpg |
03:46.09 | ab0oo | right, 13 holes, but one side of the board has pads around the holes. HAng on... |
03:46.34 | ab0oo | Mine looks VERY similar, but with gold pins... |
03:46.40 | ab0oo | even dremeled a hole inthe case... |
03:46.58 | TimRiker | http://www.TuxScreen.net/img/rimg0005.jpg |
03:47.03 | ab0oo | all of the solder is on the top side of the board... |
03:47.37 | TimRiker | http://www.TuxScreen.net/img/rimg0006.jpg <- like this? ;-) |
03:47.53 | ab0oo | almost identical. |
03:48.18 | ab0oo | I'd take pictures, but my wife took the digital camera to NYC, and I can't find where she put it when she came home.. :( |
03:48.48 | ab0oo | All of my connections OHM out good, but it's a VERY moving target to hit the correct device ID. |
03:48.59 | TimRiker | heh. all those are images I took and they are on the wiki page. |
03:49.03 | ab0oo | when I disconnect the JTAG, it gives me all ones... |
03:49.05 | TimRiker | http://www.tuxscreen.net/wiki/view/JTAG |
03:49.16 | ab0oo | I've seen them all before. I've been following that page to the letter. |
03:49.49 | ab0oo | believe me, I wouldn't ask for help if I hadn't read the FM... |
03:49.49 | TimRiker | you using a holly gates dongle? or home built? got the caps in there? |
03:50.09 | ab0oo | I got it from AlephOne. Freshly built. Took 'em 6 weeks. |
03:51.10 | ab0oo | Looks just like this one: http://www.lart.tudelft.nl/projects/jtag/lart-jtag-2.jpg |
03:52.00 | ab0oo | have you had to do the 100 Ohm resistor addition between pins 6 and 7 on the JTAG connector? |
03:52.17 | TimRiker | yep. same. |
03:52.34 | TimRiker | no. |
03:52.44 | TimRiker | ie: same dongle. no resistor. |
03:52.49 | ab0oo | does your device ID sync up first time every time? |
03:53.21 | TimRiker | yes. but I had to mess with the cable to get one that worked well. |
03:53.43 | TimRiker | now I've used the same dongle and cable on 10 or so phones. works every time. |
03:53.45 | ab0oo | and, do you get the same number of bytes transferred every time? Because it's a "no" for me on both. |
03:53.55 | TimRiker | yes for me on both. |
03:54.08 | ab0oo | ok, it's gotta be my cable... |
03:54.13 | ab0oo | at least, I hope. |
03:54.28 | TimRiker | I kept playing with it till I could always get the same id and the same data on reads before I tried writes. |
03:54.34 | ab0oo | look at this: <hang on while I cut and paste> |
03:54.44 | TimRiker | #flood? |
03:55.08 | ab0oo | Re~ett|ng ~dct~fy |efa|dts~ |
03:55.12 | ab0oo | no, just one line. |
03:55.43 | ab0oo | That is a line from me running "strings" on a "read" from the jtag. It's got corrupted chars in the middle of the words... |
03:56.00 | ab0oo | the WHOLE file is like that. random chars in words replaced with "~" |
03:56.30 | ab0oo | ok, I'll buy that. so these JTAGs really DO work, it's just a matter of coaxing them along? |
03:56.55 | TimRiker | yeah. |
03:57.07 | TimRiker | is is always byte 3 of 4 that's messed up? |
03:57.07 | ab0oo | ok. Got any more phones? <laughs> |
03:57.25 | ab0oo | it kind of looks like it. could it be a bad memory chip? |
03:57.46 | TimRiker | all your reads show the same? |
03:58.00 | TimRiker | ie: not the same data, but the same bad bytes |
03:58.19 | ab0oo | I've only done one read. Hang on and I'll do another... |
03:58.46 | TimRiker | I've got a few phones around that need looking into. |
03:58.57 | TimRiker | some boot, some don't some are missing parts, etc. |
03:59.26 | ab0oo | I'll bet you wife/S-O loves all those parts lying around.... mine sure does... |
03:59.34 | TimRiker | hehe |
04:00.00 | TimRiker | do you know which blob was there in the first place? |
04:00.07 | ab0oo | man, the reads take forever... I guess 650 bytes per sec.... |
04:00.08 | TimRiker | try putting the same one back? |
04:00.38 | TimRiker | yeah. un buffered jtag over parallel. not exactly the fasted thing invented. ;-/ |
04:01.16 | ab0oo | well, I read 245k and strings found nothing. hang on and I'll let it run a little longer.... |
04:01.51 | ab0oo | it's really frustrating that I was so careful connecting the JTAG. I really tried to make sure my ducks were in a row... |
04:03.11 | TimRiker | blob is only the first 32k normally. can be up to 128k but no likely to be over 64k. |
04:03.20 | TimRiker | s/no /not/ |
04:04.55 | ab0oo | these files look completely different. RADICALLY different. |
04:05.14 | ab0oo | I don't see the same "every third character corrupted" thing, though.... |
04:05.30 | ab0oo | what would I see if I had a single bank of memory that was bad? |
04:05.50 | TimRiker | this is flash, not ram. |
04:06.13 | TimRiker | seems to me there are 2 flash chips, and each has like 4 bit locks or some such. |
04:06.27 | TimRiker | hmm. 2 bits perhaps. |
04:07.07 | ab0oo | ahh, flash, not ram. I could see screwing up the SODIMM, but I haven't been near the flash... |
04:07.21 | ab0oo | er, is the flash near the PCMCIA slots? |
04:07.30 | ab0oo | I _DID_ do the 5v hack... |
04:07.31 | TimRiker | you can pull the sodimm out and it'll still boot. |
04:07.54 | ab0oo | don't think I dropped any solder, but still........ |
04:10.47 | TimRiker | http://www.tuxscreen.net/img/mvc-623f.jpg <- flash are the bottom 2 on the right iirc |
04:12.14 | TimRiker | http://www.tuxscreen.net/img/mvc-624f.jpg |
04:13.04 | TimRiker | http://www.tuxscreen.net/wiki/view/PCMCIA-5V |
04:13.54 | ab0oo | opposite board. chances are pretty slim on screwing that up... |
04:15.19 | ab0oo | ok, well, let me bang away on getting a clean read from the flash, and then seeing if I can get a decent write. Thank looks like the main problems. |
04:15.29 | ab0oo | (the connector being flaky, that is. |
04:17.36 | ab0oo | thanks for your help. You know, I'm in the middle of starting a wireless ISP (802.11b), and there's a BUNCH of 2.4ghz RF around here. I wonder if my cable is cut to a perfect 2.4ghz antenna length.... |
04:17.53 | ab0oo | that would be a real hoot. |
04:20.19 | ab0oo | have you ever fried a JTAG? are they pretty hardy little critters? |
04:21.41 | TimRiker | the dongle? I've never fried one. but I never soldered anything to it either. |
04:22.43 | ab0oo | I'll shoot you an email if/when I get this beast figured out. Thanks for the help. |
04:22.52 | TimRiker | sure |
04:22.58 | TimRiker | good luck. ;-) |
