JonathanD | and the science center. My son has the submarine tshirt. | 12:50 |
jackson | cool | 12:53 |
JonathanD | the sub is fun. | 12:53 |
jackson | took a tour on a atomic sub | 12:54 |
JonathanD | nifty. | 12:54 |
jackson | too crowded | 12:55 |
jackson | I disassembled an A-10 warthog aircraft even less room than a sub | 12:57 |
jackson | ha when we disassembled the Gatling gun there were 3 round still in the gun | 12:59 |
JonathanD | I need a model number for this washing machine. | 13:00 |
jackson | open the lid should be there | 13:00 |
JonathanD | thought so, is not. | 13:00 |
JonathanD | gonna look on the back | 13:00 |
jackson | what brand | 13:00 |
JonathanD | whirlpool | 13:01 |
jackson | what do you need | 13:01 |
JonathanD | I think a belt broke. | 13:01 |
JonathanD | I hope a belt broke. | 13:01 |
jackson | how old | 13:01 |
JonathanD | not sure. | 13:01 |
JonathanD | gonna pull it out, brb | 13:01 |
jackson | after 1985 it would be a coupler | 13:02 |
jackson | pull it out 18" and tip back on it's rear feet | 13:02 |
jackson | look between the motor and the gearcase | 13:03 |
JonathanD | http://applianceguru.com/forum2/5427.html | 13:03 |
JonathanD | seems similar, and I found that number on the back | 13:03 |
JonathanD | jackson: I'll have to do that tonight. I need to drain it first. | 13:03 |
JonathanD | Thanks though :) | 13:03 |
jackson | oh is it front loader? | 13:04 |
JonathanD | we have a rule in this house. | 13:04 |
JonathanD | You don't call the repairman until it's on fire. | 13:04 |
JonathanD | nope | 13:04 |
jackson | ok | 13:04 |
jackson | take the hose and lay it on the floor and let it drain | 13:04 |
JonathanD | but theres too much water to tilt it without causing new fun. | 13:04 |
JonathanD | yeah, I have a drain, I'll have to run something over to drain to it. | 13:05 |
JonathanD | fun stuff to do after work ;) | 13:05 |

jackson | mornin teddy-dbear | 13:07 |
teddy-dbear | o/ | 13:07 |
jackson | JonathanD: http://www.repairclinic.com/PartDetail/Motor-Coupling/285753A/1195967 | 13:07 |
jackson | JonathanD: if it is the coupler it still will be able to drain the water out | 13:08 |
jackson | could be the lid switch | 13:09 |
JonathanD | lid switch works. | 13:09 |
JonathanD | I cna hear it attempting to spin. | 13:09 |
jackson | then it shold drain out the water cause the pump is on the other end of the motor shaft | 13:10 |
JonathanD | it does, but I didn't want it injuring itself further in the process. | 13:10 |
jackson | put the timer in spin | 13:10 |
jackson | you wont | 13:11 |
jackson | the coupler of on the other end | 13:11 |
jackson | is* | 13:11 |
jackson | 20 min job or 110 dollars | 13:12 |
JonathanD | parts cheap enough. | 13:12 |
JonathanD | jackson: I can do it. No problem with getting my hands dirty. | 13:13 |
JonathanD | letting it spin/drain now. | 13:13 |
jackson | yep main cause is overlloading or not enough water | 13:13 |
jackson | ok | 13:13 |
jackson | follow the instruction for removing the cabinet | 13:14 |
jackson | ez job | 13:14 |
JonathanD | jackson: I have to leave for work but I've bookmarked both links. | 13:14 |
JonathanD | Thanks for your help man. | 13:15 |
jackson | just remember to set the cabnet back in the tabs when u reassembling it | 13:15 |
jackson | if the tabs aren't up use a screwdriver to lift them | 13:16 |
jackson | the set the cabinet | 13:16 |
jackson | then | 13:16 |
jackson | i think there is a youtube vid on doing it | 13:17 |
jackson | o/ | 13:18 |

JonathanD | hah | 16:02 |
JonathanD | Got that laptop running debian now. | 18:02 |
JonathanD | and the wifi is working | 18:03 |
JonathanD | via PCMCIA | 18:03 |
JonathanD | At not completely terrible speeds. | 18:04 |
ChinnoDog | "not completely terrible"... | 18:36 |
JonathanD | Well, it's 500mhz... | 18:36 |
JonathanD | 256MB ram. | 18:36 |
JonathanD | it is not fast. | 18:36 |
JonathanD | hmm | 19:06 |
JonathanD | no sound | 19:06 |
ChinnoDog | Install a sound card | 19:14 |
ChinnoDog | with a wavetable | 19:14 |
JonathanD | :D | 19:14 |
ChinnoDog | because wavetables are cool | 19:14 |
JonathanD | a sound card where? :p | 19:14 |
ChinnoDog | idk | 19:14 |
JonathanD | ChinnoDog: it's gotta be onboard or nothing :p | 19:14 |
JonathanD | I'm using the only working PCMCIA for network. | 19:14 |
ChinnoDog | Is there an empty space for optional sound chip? | 19:14 |
JonathanD | ChinnoDog: it has sound (under win XP) | 19:15 |
JonathanD | seems debian bug 464191 applies | 19:15 |
ChinnoDog | Is that an unsupported chipset? | 19:15 |
JonathanD | looks like it was removed from later kernels. | 19:16 |
ChinnoDog | Better compile custom kernel? | 19:20 |
JonathanD | How long is that going to take on this "lovely high performance machine" though. | 19:20 |
ChinnoDog | You only have to do it once | 19:21 |
ChinnoDog | And leave out the extra garbage | 19:21 |
JonathanD | ChinnoDog: this isn't my machine. It's a time/money tradeoff here. | 19:21 |
ChinnoDog | Oh, I see | 19:21 |
ChinnoDog | How much money do you get for making it work? | 19:23 |
JonathanD | not enough to spend mucking with it for hours :P | 19:24 |
JonathanD | $50 | 19:25 |
