| 21:12:34 | Russ | hey tim |
| 21:12:42 | Russ | which schematics did you get? |
| 21:43:20 | mallum | Russ, BZFlag: can I ask a quick question about the inferno boorloader ? |
| 21:50:13 | Russ | yah |
| 21:50:44 | mallum | ok Im trying to get the inferno emu to speak to the tuxscreen |
| 21:51:16 | mallum | Im 99% sure the cable I have is faulty ( or not actually 'null' ) ... |
| 21:51:24 | mallum | I just wanna check . |
| 21:52:51 | mallum | When I send the rdp command from the emu - I just get a '<sending reset>' and nothing else |
| 21:53:08 | mallum | note, I've reset the tuxscreen pressed escape and the ctrl-P |
| 21:53:26 | mallum | and the tuxscreen is in its bootloader |
| 21:53:45 | mallum | does that sound like a fault with the serial cable ? |
| 21:55:53 | Russ | maybe your not at 9600 8N1, no hardware flow control |
| 21:57:19 | mallum | I have to set that 'externally' out of the emu ? |
| 21:59:03 | mallum | Im following the instructions http://www.tuxscreen.net/wiki/view/Main/InfernoRemoteat |
| 22:00:45 | mallum | Also I tested the cable by linking the serial port |
| 22:00:56 | Russ | in your comm program |
| 22:01:16 | mallum | s on my pc togeather, running getty on one and minicom on the other and there was no connection |
| 22:01:31 | mallum | the comm program is the inferno emulator ? |
| 22:01:46 | Russ | minicom |
| 22:01:54 | Russ | oh, its 115200 |
| 22:01:58 | mallum | Im only at the initial stage of getting the blob onto the tux |
| 22:02:46 | mallum | I thought on the inferno emulator could communicate with the inferno bootloader ? |
| 22:03:10 | Russ | I don't know |
| 22:03:23 | Russ | if you see tangent... |
| 22:03:43 | Aelhaz | mallum: If getty didn't work I suspect it's not the right cable |
| 22:04:10 | mallum | Aelhaz: yes, I just wanted to double check |
| 22:04:21 | Aelhaz | mallum: And yeah, the inferno boot loader only speaks the Styx protocol |
| 22:04:32 | Aelhaz | minicom might see some noise, but you won't have a prompt or anything |
| 22:04:39 | mallum | I'll get another cable tommorow and try again when there are more people about |
| 22:04:47 | mallum | minicom didn't see anything |
| 22:05:00 | mallum | I'll drop tangent a mail too |
| 22:05:26 | mallum | Ok thanks for you help - bedtime for me now |
| 22:09:24 | Aelhaz | Man, I'd have made my own cable by now, if i were him |
