This controller will be designed for installation into an Eee 700-series netbook to serve the following purposes:




Purpose:
I've been looking to get EleHack.com on the road for a while now. I was looking at making a site for everything from basic circuits to interfacing sensors with microcontrollers, etc... Basically, building blocks for circuits, so if someone needed to (for example) look up how to make a 555 timer circuit, there would be a page for that, or how to interface an LCD display to an Arduino, there would be a page for that. Even things like how to interface triggers to DSLRs. Really, anything electronic-related.




Since SparkFun Electronics announced Free Day on January 7, 2010, I figured I'd start looking at what exactly I could get for $100. (I'll only link the big items for risk of being called Spam by Googlebot.) This list is a work in progress, I'll add more as I search.
Here's a quick tip if you find yourself typing a lot of accented letters, etc. We're going to assign our keyboard a Compose key.
In Kubuntu, do the following:




I scored a mega-deal on eBay a while back for this EVEm mini-ITX computer with an EVEm DC/DC power supply, in a generic mini-ITX case.
The EVEm has a VIA C3 Samuel2 600MHz "1GigaPro" CPU and a VIA VT133 Chipset.
I added the specified maximum of 256MB of 133Mhz SDRAM, and am currently using a 3.5" 6.4Gb hard drive.




I got this LCD screen free with one of my computer-related eBay purchases.
The label on the bubblewrap says:




2homeinfo dot com is a (quite pretty) fascia for a giant splog ring. Its posts, however pretty, link off to other sites, such as modularhomeweb dot com, (surprise surprise, it's the same site, just copied over...), except this site has stories whose "original posts" are all on usedmobilehomes dot wordpress dot com.




This type of SPLOG targets Wordpress-MU-based free blog hosts such as siggie.net.
This SPLOG posts blocks of text that may be copied from other sources, and/or mixed together to create a regular-looking block of text, generally with entire coherent sentences but not coherent paragraphs. Random groups of words are linked to the target sites, which are either:




I found this parking meter at Princess Auto yesterday. Made by POM Inc., this meter is called the PPM.
I got it to work by adding a rubber band with just enough tension to depress the turn-detect lever when the lever is turned. The meter has knobs where a tensioned spring was attached. I'll have to find a decent spring somewhere.




Here's a command I wrote for DS lib, it goes in as /secure/cmds/admins/diffit.c and responds to the "diffit" and "help diffit" commands.
Steps to use:
