--- Comment #5 from Derik Barseghian <[email protected]> 2011-05-02 18:18:47 PDT --- The local radioshack actually doesn't carry the keyspan, so I got one off amazon. Ubuntu recognizes it, but SPAN won't start up with it, and minicom actually locks up when trying to initialize using default settings, in both ubuntu 10.04 (desktop) and 9.04 (gumstix). I can get minicom to not lock up if I turn off Hardware Flow Control. This is where I left off messing around with the keyspan. I setup span on my 10.04 desktop, and using the belkin i let it run, sampling each sensor at 1sps, over the weekend and it survived. Unfortunately to do other work I had to stop this run, so it's not conclusive the belkin won't die on the desktop-- I'd want a run to last ~ >5 days to believe that, but it seems very possible (typically the belkin on the gumstix would die at about a day or so, but it has lasted longer). I'm still a little suspicious of usb power settings on the gumstix, or worse maybe something physical related to the OTG port + adapter + dongle. Afaik Dan's long-run continues to work without problem on his gumstix w/ belkin, however I recall he has a different version of the Tobi board... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.ecoinformatics.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. _______________________________________________ Kepler-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nceas.ucsb.edu/kepler/mailman/listinfo/kepler-dev
