@krono right but adding every single node package as a separate apt package feels. Wrong
@ilovecomputers I feel like the core of what we loved about the internet is there - it's hiding in chat rooms, little closed member forums, hand crafted websites. It's not gone, just harder to see, but if you dig through the muck, you find yourself in a small meadow with a few other folks who might share with you something good.
is anyone in southwest UK (and can pick up in person) in want of a SE FDHD for a negotiable price? i don't have the space to keep this one.
mouse is missing, starts up and looks for boot so electronics are mostly ok but hard drive isn't, screen is incredibly dim and grows dimmer by the second suggesting either analog board recap or CRT failure
@arielmt bit early innit
...i measure against EMI_GND instead
i tried briefly sounding off with the continuity meter to tell where this diode goes but i couldn't find anything. i'm happy to take higher resolution pictures and answer questions, unfortunately the daughtercard where this diode is does not have its schematics released unlike the main computer board and there aren't many people left active in the chumby forum
#electronics #chumby #reverseengineeing can anyone help me figure out what diode might've been here? another one in the same board with the same footprint reads 3U and in a pinch i could take apart another working chumby but because it involves peeling off glue i would rather not (and i don't think looking at that one would tell me anything)
i believe this diode is keeping the chumby from powering as without it RAW_PWR and GND on the chumbilical read 0V although i can see the input 12V if...
@mwichary i love your blog posts
@Radgryd say it ain't so
@grote remember, kids: "sideloading" is just "installing software that isn't on the app store." the corpos are just calling it "sideloading" because it sounds shadier.
@arielmt it crumbled into absolutely nothing as i tried to desolder it
