I guess you're out of luck then :( It would be pretty straightforward to get a microcontroller to interface=20 to it instead (eg dual UART) Hmm, I wonder if you can oversample and use a higher baud rate=20 (obviously would require modified ntpd) =2D-=20 Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 5596 B766 97C0 0E94 4347 295E E593 DC20 7B3F CE8C --nextPart1393856.Z4p6ae6Ftv Content-Type: application/pgp-signature;

There won't be, 50% is way too far off, I think (from experiments I did 30 years back) that about 12% is the limit, when I had access to the best regenerators. Regens don't even get used anymore. I forget the actual limit I probed, but I know 1/2 over is way too far to go. > > -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-chat@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-chat > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-chat-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkh6MrsACgkQz62J6PPcoOmBrwCfRIbcU4yoZrApBR32AYdFBqtn t6wAn1yw4mK9WE0jxjEu7/XTI1iG/y3N =mZOo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- From owner-freebsd-chat@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Jul 14 01:23:37 2008 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-chat@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D95BA1065677 for ; Mon, 14 Jul 2008 01:23:37 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from dan@langille.org) Received: from nyi.unixathome.org (nyi.unixathome.org [64.147.113.42]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AEF248FC15 for ; Mon, 14 Jul 2008 01:23:37 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from dan@langille.org) Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by nyi.unixathome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8A95F50893 for ; Mon, 14 Jul 2008 02:23:36 +0100 (BST) X-Virus-Scanned: amavisd-new at unixathome.org Received: from nyi.unixathome.org ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (nyi.unixathome.org [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id eaGymr3nWx50 for ; Mon, 14 Jul 2008 02:23:35 +0100 (BST) Received: from [192.168.1.2] (bast.unixathome.org [72.78.223.75]) by nyi.unixathome.org (Postfix) with ESMTPSA id A79C250858 for ; Mon, 14 Jul 2008 02:23:35 +0100 (BST) Mime-Version: 1.0 (Apple Message framework v753.1) Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-Id: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed To: FreeBSD Chat From: Dan Langille Date: Sun, 13 Jul 2008 21:23:22 -0400 X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.753.1) Subject: DNS provider recommendations X-BeenThere: freebsd-chat@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Non technical items related to the community List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 14 Jul 2008 01:23:37 -0000 Folks: Do you have a recommendation for a DNS provider?

I've started looking around for work up there - but was wondering if anyone on this list has any pointers on getting gigs up there. I have large scale Unix experience as a system engineer - and have been concentrating on opening up new facilities in India, New Mexico, the UK etc - but frankly I'd love to work for any company that has challenging, interesting work up there. A bonus would be the ability to telecommute (my fiance is originally from the Okanagan), but we realize we are going to have to live in Van for a while - which is great 'cause I love Vancouver :) Anyway, figured I'd ping this list to see if anyone here has any hints, tips or pointers. Thanks! -pete ps -> I didn't hit jobs@ since I'm not posting work - but if that is a better forum for this topic please let me know! -- ~~o0OO0o~~ Pete Wright www.nycbug.org NYC's *BSD User Group From owner-freebsd-chat@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Jul 17 05:01:06 2008 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-chat@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 576DE1065691 for ; Thu, 17 Jul 2008 05:01:06 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kayve@sfsu.edu) Received: from iron1.sfsu.edu (iron1.sfsu.edu [130.212.10.35]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 394A68FC19 for ; Thu, 17 Jul 2008 05:01:06 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kayve@sfsu.edu) X-Inbound-SFSU: False X-onepass: IPPSC X-From-SFSU: True X-IronPort-Anti-Spam-Filtered: true X-IronPort-Anti-Spam-Result: ApoEAChvfkiC1Apk/2dsb2JhbACwJg Received: from smtp01.sfsu.edu ([130.212.10.100]) by iron1.sfsu.edu with ESMTP; 16 Jul 2008 22:01:06 -0700 Received: from libra.sfsu.edu ([130.212.10.238]) by mail05a.sfsu.edu (Lotus Domino Release 7.0.3HF378) with ESMTP id 2008071622010293-1665 ; Wed, 16 Jul 2008 22:01:02 -0700 Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2008 22:01:03 -0700 (PDT) From: KAYVEN RIESE To: Rob In-Reply-To: <784966050807160640q31f13160t91702a150bd5b152@mail.gmail.com> Message-ID: References: <784966050807160640q31f13160t91702a150bd5b152@mail.gmail.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 X-MIMETrack: Itemize by SMTP Server on MAIL05a/SERVERS/SFSU(Release 7.0.3HF378 | February 28, 2008) at 07/16/2008 22:01:03, Serialize by Router on SMTP01/SERVERS/SFSU(Release 7.0.3HF378 | February 28, 2008) at 07/16/2008 22:01:05, Serialize complete at 07/16/2008 22:01:05 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed Cc: freebsd-chat@freebsd.org Subject: Re: I'm sorry about being a jerk regarding Sysinstall a week or so ago X-BeenThere: freebsd-chat@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Non technical items related to the community List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 17 Jul 2008 05:01:06 -0000 WHAT?
