I'll be at the conference, and I've packed some equipment. Look for me [1] in a gray Libiquity polo shirt.

Spare clips are also good to have. Even on the Pomona clips, the glue holding the contacts in the housing can get old and allow the contacts to slide up or, worse, pop out. > 4) thermal paste and thermal paste cleaning material, and wipes etc -> > for T400 flashing. requires removing the heatsink I would recommend to anyone bringing T400, T500, etc. laptops that you disassemble them in advance and just bring the mainboard, if possible. It helps to speed up the flashing. There are disassembly instructions in the libreboot documentation, as well as other places like Lenovo's Hardware Maintenance Manuals. > 5) I doubt anyone will have D8/D16 to flash, so tools for flashing > DIP8 spi chips probably aren't required. most people wanting to be > flashed will have laptops >=20 > - -> you could maybe take DIP8 chips with libreboot on them with you, > just in case, for kcma-d8 and kgpe-d16, then the person just puts that > in their d8/d16 when they get home. in fact that seems more logical to > me. also plcc32 lpc chips (1mb) with libreboot, for asus kfsn4-dre I'm bringing a CH341A-based programmer as well, so I'll be able to flash existing DIP-8 chips in the ZIF socket. Anyone with KCMA-D8 and KGPE-D16 boards can see me. --=20 Patrick McDermott, CEO Libiquity Putting customers in control of high-quality technologies http://www.libiquity.com/ --Sig_/0eTKzJ+E.voyINhwraCVEwq Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJas+G/AAoJEBpFns3k1gS+ajwP/2oPq2pxFqiIhxXBaHMllAvf b7m/Q6RVTXar+mYNP0ldXecAUQT4Lv6roQpEM2UColUlVW6Us4PGmHyZrxn97iVv qLz7Y+B0xa/wbOO30SuT7ugGG2V2F8FmnQNl+DW+o/TsBM7EHq9zyBghXu/dc5r0 XDmPwJk5PDVgtimZbnbJfcrb3QdQE/+7h3ZL8s1ZCHjuPZ3vXJV6ng72CFiyXTdx 9ultvhuDRiP9PjRPCnzFDvAf87oEidab8Js0OyhlgtbzXqTA/wEDB6tZTxGZTp7r NklrKxXkluaggq3QS489tWsiN8uau4iGDZWADa+KscH7XZVA77X76gBWR3DFM1D2 LSMWsiWhjExBDHWvEDWW7Zm2WnI5Wb8oEthQXqtfrroOYPbxrGUFRd7AUASdWuh8 xyQ07Phnp5bJC7NMUIulVo6B7l6Q76agO1Pkybjpr/7OjSQJCFneFO/3d1ENGnf6 OiFX3YigYLKul3C7NVdtHGsII7GYxdv6nKSMHU7IhRF0x+vvBJG7+/CrSynOlwnV U/zyPUyIxKcepQ4+lgv9bF2bN96jmxKdLvrO7NuAYr0TNHTBNPQn1mCxMiZG0Tao xqPgOUDbHpy9ImUlmD+wE4vJEmwdQz1eQouNekW+9U1THJ//J7GH0ujDw38h2cZP xUxheaMJMMhI7Gmg4nm/ =6UKB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/0eTKzJ+E.voyINhwraCVEwq-- --===============3629146204583371322== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ libreplanet-discuss mailing list libreplanet-discuss@libreplanet.org https://lists.libreplanet.org/mailman/listinfo/libreplanet-discuss --===============3629146204583371322==--
