[20050812] More NetBSD/toaster stuff (Updated)
OK, so this cute baby now also got an article at The Inquirer, and Christian von Kleist's posting in the Slashdot thread contains some nice details about how the toaster hardware is accessed from NetBSD by using sysctls:

 # sysctl -a | grep hw.t
 hw.toaster0.led0_duty = 1
 hw.toaster0.led0_width = 8
 hw.toaster0.led1_duty = 2 
 hw.toaster0.led1_width = 16
 hw.toaster0.led2_duty = 4 
 hw.toaster0.led2_width = 32
 hw.toaster0.led3_duty = 8 
 hw.toaster0.led3_width = 64
 hw.toaster0.magnetic_latch = 0 
 hw.toaster0.burner_element = 0
 hw.toastersensors0.burnlevel_knob = 1593 
 hw.toastersensors0.cancel_key = 0 
 hw.toastersensors0.cancel_key_ticks = 13 
 hw.toastersensors0.toast_key = 0
 hw.toastersensors0.toast_key_ticks = 4 
 hw.toastersensors0.bagel_key = 0
 hw.toastersensors0.bagel_key_ticks = 6
 hw.toastersensors0.warm_key = 0 
 hw.toastersensors0.warm_key_ticks = 7 
 hw.toastersensors0.frozen_key = 0 
 hw.toastersensors0.frozen_key_ticks = 10 
 hw.toastersensors0.toast_down = 0 
 hw.toastersensors0.toast_down_ticks = 50965 
 hw.tspld0.board_temp = 40250000 
 hw.tspld0.board_temp_5s = 40290128
 hw.tspld0.board_temp_30s = 40477805
      
(The board_temp are the temperature in C, multiplied by 10^6, so right now it's at 40.25 degrees C.) /usr/local/bin/toast is pretty complicated, but a basic toast script works like this:
 #! /bin/sh
 sysctl -w hw.toaster0.magnetic_latch=1
 # user presses toast lever down now...
 sysctl -w hw.toaster0.burner_element = 1
 sleep 60
 sysctl -w hw.toaster0.burner_element = 0
 sysctl -w hw.toaster0.magnetic_latch=0
 echo "Toast is done!"
 
Only root has write access to hw.toaster0.burner_element! :D
''

Update: For the record, here's the dmesg output of the system booting>

[20050810] Finally in hardware: NetBSD Controlled Toaster
``It has long been regarded that the UNIX-like OS NetBSD is portable to every type of machine except perhaps your kitchen toaster. Technologic Systems, however, has conquered this last frontier. Using one of its rugged embedded TS-7200 single-board computers housed inside the empty space of a standard 2 slice toaster, Technologic Systems has designed a functional NetBSD controlled toaster.''

What other than OMFGLOLIWANTONE should I say?! Very cool to hear things like ``the board being able to survive 60 seconds at a time a half centimeter away from an 800 watt burner element. A regular PC can't even survive room temperature without heatsinks and fans, and the TS-7200 has neither.''.
