15 days mining about Total: 4.04000000 BTC， the mining software restart about 850 times.
‘Yuenshu Fong’ create a Linux version usbboot for xburst 4770 cpu. you can find the source tar ball here
We bought a copyleft FPGA Develop/Bitcoin Mining board: Icarus made by Ngzhang, the PCB, FPGA code, Mining software is all open. for more information please check bitcointalk.org.
I setup the Icarus with my server.here is the script file to keep it minng all the time. you can find more logs here.
4PM DEC 2 2011. Upon invitation from Terrence Curry, Associate Professor at Tsinghua University’s School of Architecture, Naihan Li gave a talk about her crates in front of about 50 students. this event is about the story of her and her mobile furniture crates. you can find more info about her work at google 
. but here is a small picture can give you a brief idea.
she will using her Media Wall while the speech. this Meida Wall is most interesting things for us. since it have DMX-Light, DMX-Laser, Speakers, Big Screen, Projector.
since I have no idea about architecture or design stuff, I will just put the entire event video record somewhere later. then people who have interesting can download this video. there about ~50 students in this event, total time is ~1 hour, Milkymist One is keep rendering about ~20 minutes at the Answer Section, students like it since they think it part of the arcwork I will just put some pictures:

Nanhanli a independent architect and designer for architectural and graphic design, she will give a speech at TQinghua university at DEC 2 2011, she will use her new Media Wall as the screen talk about her Crates story. there is a chance for Milkymist One that can connect to the artwork or part of artwork. since she bought a Milkymist One and we have a big update at NOV 30 2011, so we update her Milkymist One for her event.
she is live at 红
a great place at Caochangdi Beijing. oh when I saw this building the first thing come from my mind is change them to HEX. 
, will update Milkymist one is not hard, just boot it and click the ‘Webupdate’, on thing is the ‘Webupdate’ will not update the standby.fpg, which will not give you the AUTO-ON feature. so I have to use reflash_m1.sh –release for update the standby.fpg, after update just re-plug the power cable. the middle led will immediate on. no needs press middle button any more. here is a picture after new images boot. 
for prepare the event I created 7 patches for that. here is two screenthos:
at the end of the day we project the milkymist one performance to the wall just for fun 
Why compile xburst-tools under ben nanonote, please checkout this bug(xburst-tools: contains precompiled binaries in debian/). this means we have to compile the target firmware under a MIPS Debian system. that is why I try to compile xburst-tools under ben nanonote. I just write down the command I used :
0. follow this link install debian in your Nanonote.
1. add this like to /etc/apt/sources.list
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian sid main
2. install packages for compile xburst-tools
apt-get update
apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libusb-dev libconfuse-dev
apt-get install debhelper pkg-config devscripts
apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev libreadline-dev dpkg-dev
apt-get -b source xburst-tools
3. then all you need do is follow the debian/README compile xburst-tools. it’s simpile
4. problem is this work have to be done by a package sponsor. I have to find a DD who have a MIPS EL machine or give one Ben Nanonote to a DD.
你可以在这里找到Ben Nanonote 的SDK(64bit)，我将在我的服务器上编译相应的 32bit 版本。
而且在下一版本的Ben Nanonote Image 中。我们将加入Ben WPAN支持。以及升级内核到Linux-3.0
Ben Nanonote atBen, atUSB

Thanks to Shinya Kuribayashi, we added the Ben Nanonote support to u-boot[1].

I have flashed OpenWrt on my D-LINK DIR-300, but the signal goes very bad. only 3 meters can receive signal (Link Quality=2/5). here is some steps flash DIR-300 back to original firmware.
1. connect the serial, check here, it’s TTL not 12v so you have but a RS232 <–> TTL converter
+-----+ +---+ +-----------------+ +---+ |Power| |Wan| |Ethernet x4 ports| |Ant| +-------------------------------------+ |TXD| |GND| |VCC| | . | |RXD| +-------------------------------------+
3. setup TFTP server, put redboot to TFTP server folder, connect to DIR-300 WAN port.
4. boot DIR-300, press Ctrl + C at serial terminal. input those command:
DD-WRT> ip_address -l 192.168.1.1 -h 192.168.1.2
Default server: 192.168.1.2
DD-WRT> fis init

DD-WRT> reset
5. download DIR-300 firmware page at D-Link Singapore.
6. Getting into Emergency Recovery Page
Reset DIR-300, setup your IP address to 192.168.20.80
Open up your web browser and go to http://192.168.20.81.
You should be able to see the emergency recovery page as seen below.
7. select Firmware you download, click ‘upload’
8. wait until serial console show flash finished. reset your DIR-300

Yesterday, after I install ubuntu 11.04 on my macbook, everytime the macbook powerup, there a big loud and long beep, 10 times sleep light flicker, screen go to blank in next minute, then system continue boot. I found the new ubuntu 11.04 is using a grub-efi, not like before install the grub on /dev/sd5(for example), I guess it’s grub-efi problem, I switched to grub-pc and install it on /dev/sda5, ubuntu can not boot anymore by rEFI 
. try to google about this long beep, found one command in Mac system fix this problem.
Quote From Links
Download the EFI Firmware update from Apple, unpack the package (e.g. with unpkg) and locate the Firmware in the correspoding app. Or you use the existing app in /Applications/Utilities if you happen to have it already. As I needed to reflash a Unibody MacBook 5,1 (Late ’08), I downloaded the package for it (MB51.007D.003 (EFI 1.3)), unpkged it and located my firmware in the app (MacBook EFI Firmware Update.app/Contents/MB51_007D_03B_LOCKED.scap). This is very important!! One needs to make sure to flash the correct version!!! Else bad things WILL happen! Then open a terminal and use bless (That command is one line and yes, -firmware is an undocumented feature):
xiangfu@macboot:~$ sudo bless -mount / -firmware /Applications/Utilities/MacBook EFI Firmware Update.app/Contents/MB51_007D_03B_LOCKED.scap
Again: BE VERY CAREFUL TO USE THE RIGHT VERSION!!! THIS CAN BRICK YOUR DEVICE!!!
Then shutdown and continue with the default firmware flash procedure for your device (e.g.: Unibody MacBook 5,1 – 1.3 EFI Firmware).
And that’s all folks. The Mac should reboot, flash the firmware and everybody’s happy again. It worked for me like a charm, but ymmv.
