OneUp V2 Build Log.

Hi Mr. A,

I have not given up on the OneUp, it is just that things got busy. Then, I lost my operating system.

No, really, I physically lost it.

I run Knoppix, which was designed to be a "portable" operating system. You install it to a flash drive, not a hard drive. Then, you can take the flash to any computer and boot from it.

I use flash drives with a small physical form factor (called a "plug-and-stay configuration"). Check out pictures of the SanDisk Cruzer Fit for an example of what I am talking about.

Anyway, I physically lost the small Cruzer Fit drive, and just recently I found it.

Thank you for your words of support, and the link to the older drivers. I have come up with some progress (I got the motors moving) with the "current" drivers. I am thinking at this moment that I have a hardware problem. I will be posting the results of my troubleshoot shortly. I need to bust out the multimeter and do some readings first.

Also, I did not use Cura in my troubleshoot, but rather pronterface. It does a better job of logging error messages than does Repetier-Host.

Also, I **believe** that R.H. is more like Windows software running on Linux, while pronterface is Linux software running on Linux. Don't hold me to that, though.

EDIT - I just followed the link. I plug FTDI serial devices into Linux all the time with no problems whatsoever. If the issue were the serial drivers, I would not get the printer spewing "Marlin jibberish" at minicom. So, I think the drivers are OK. The problem at this point APPEARS to be a faulty thermistor. But, let's wait till I get the post written, and we can brainstorm.
