Re: [Emc-users] What is usually used in place of rotating memory on one of these "Pi" boards?

2016-10-27 Thread Chris Albertson
The SD card will work for file storage but just remember a class 10 SD card
will write at 10MB per second or 80Mbps.

The write speed to the cache on a normal rotating disk is 6Gb or 6000Mbps.
That is about two orders of magnitude better but that is "cheating" as it
is only the interface speed.  The sustained sped of the hard drive is only
about six times faster than the SD card.   Either way the I/O performance
of a Pi is rather disappointing.   What people do to work around this is
keep the files on the hard drives of a "real" computer.  They edit those
files using the real computer so it is as fast as you are used to.   Then
when it comes time to run those files they are NFS mounted.  So basically
you do all the work on the real computer and keep the data there too.

These Pis are powerful computers for many uses.  They can stream a movie to
your TV set. But look at what that means, it takes an hour and a half to
transcode and stream a movie.  That is so long you could watch a movie
while you wait.   My point is not to expect a fast interactive experience
but when you go to cut metal it will run fast enough to make the mill run
at full speed.

Ya convinced me, but the next mall, from out here in the puckerbrush of

I got tired of the fight keeping an NFS mount happy because it often 
wasn't.  Exact same hardware but sshfs is a breath of fresh air as it 
Just Works. Every time!

So thats what I'll setup as data & gcode storage once I am in a position 
of needing it. The configs tree, once running, won't be edited very 
often so it could live on the u-SD.  Or should I just point the sshfs 
link at a Pi-LCNC located on my home net, maybe even on this machine as 
its not drive space crowded.  And that would be backed up by amanda 
every night.  I like that.  I could take the 60Gb SSD out of the Dell I 
am playing with now IF the Orange Pi has a sata, but I'm not sure it has 
a sata.  Its been shipped but no clue where it is.

I have 2 reasons for doing this, first being that its so small it will 
all fit on the door of the motor driver box, which s/b swarf proof.  2nd 
of course is that I'd like to learn something about this shirt pocket 
sized magic, and with the 7i90HD at just a few shekels over $60 shipped, 
cheap enough that I can "play with it".

Speaking of playing, I still haven't a clue how fast I can ask this motor 
to spin.  I set the max hz to 150=4500 revs, and left it spinning for 
about 45 minutes, watching the temps & listening for unusual noises.  
The rear bearing warmed up about 10F, but dropped back to about 7F after 
I picked up a hammer and pecked on the rear bearings socket in the end 
bell, but other than a rather pronounced siren-like howl from the fan 
blades, and a just detectable out of balance rotor, also worse at the 
rear, it sat there and ran like it could do it for 50 years.  And its at 
least 40 yo already, out in the weather from the looks of the paint.

Once in a blue moon I might come across a good deal. I did not expect the 
torch to cut bolts would come out and go to work when I offered him a 
$50 bill for both of them. But it did, like he was hungry. :)  My once 
in a blue moon for this year.

Thank you, Charles.

I use a Shaprie on a small piece of Scotch tape, that way I can remove
the labels and apply new when necessary.  I know of others who use
white-out and an ink pin.

For data storage most people will put the basic OS on the micro SD card and 
then NFS mount user's home directories. Likely using automount.  Don't put data 
that changes on the SD card or then you will have to back it up

You likely do only accces the pi via ssh over wifi after you set it up.

Hi Gene,

it depends on which performance records you want break. ;)

I suggest going to the next mall, buy a raspberry pi 3, three fast micro-sd 
cards (1st for testing, 2nd for backup and the 3rd for the running end
version)
with 16GB (space for wear leveling) and a fast sd card reader.
As I've heard the 7i90 is on the way.
Equipped with these arms you can start cnc'ing with pi sized ordinateure. :)

I use sata SSDs on my ARM systems that support it (build machines for
when the BBB is too slow).  On the BBB I use either class-10 / U1
devices with lots of extra space (typ. 16G) or I'll NFS mount a
directory from my file server.  When I'm just using the BBB or setting
up a system, I typically run entirely off the uSD card.  When I'm
actively developing, I'll nfs mount a share so I can access the
development directory from multiple places and the data isn't at-risk
if I crash the BBB.  That way I can build on my quad-core ARM, test on
the BBB, and git push/pull from my x86 (which has all the ssh keys, so
no passwords needed).  Using NFS on the file server also gets me RAID
storage with nightly off-site backups, so there's extra layers of safety.

I don't use the Pi (any flavor) so can't comment on what works well there.

It sounds like the window manager crashed.  When this 
happens, the windows are still generally working, but you 
can't move or resize them.  In the old days, you could do 
ctrl/alt/backspace to restart X.  You may be able to log out 
and log back in, which should restart the window manager.  
Or, of course, just reboot.

Looks like the window-manager has died upon you.

Did you update any software in between?

[Emc-users] Display issue

2016-10-27 Thread chris
I just started having a display issue that cropped up this morning when I
started up my EMC machine. For some reason the widow controls that normally show
up in the right hand corner of the window aren't there. The ones that let you
minimize, maximize, and close a window. I'm also not able to maximize the window
by using the Alt+F10 combo either, nor am I able to move the window around the
screen by grabbing the top of the window. Anyone know what might be going on?
Like I said it was working fine yesterday and this morning I went to use the
mill and I started having these issues with the computer.

Somewhat new, I think it was introduced with 2.7.

Rapidrate is probably what I'm looking for.

Is this command new?
