hi ya
thought i'd post some info and ask some dumb questions
setup:
slackware-8.1 w/ linux-2.4.22 - k6-350 w/ 256MB
i d/l and installed gerbv-0.13 from sourceforge a while back
and is presumably the same as on http://geda.seul.org/source.html
( seul.org has the sme version numbers )
------
i'm creating a front panel pcb ...
- power and reset switch
- 3 leds ( power, hdd, fan )
- incoming power connector(fd style), 2x 3-pin fan connector outgoing
1st draft attempt at the layout ...
- downloaded eagle from cadsoft.de
resulting gerber files:
http://Linux-1U.net/TNT/LedAssy-1.1/
- how i output'd the gerber files
----------------------------------
eagel->CAM->GerberAtuo ( top.gbr )
eagel->CAM->Gerber274 ( top274.gbr )
- did it for "top" and also for "bottom"
gerbv can see the top and bottom layers .. yippie
but gerbv segfaults on top.gbr and bottom.gbr
just some feedback that gerbv works
- getting some pcb fab houses to quote this itty-bitty board
is becoming a nightmare :-)
some dumb questions ( guess i'll have to go find the eagle ml )
-------------------
- how do i make a silk screen w/ eagle ?
- how do i create a "drill file" ?
how to tell eagle what size drill holes ?
- how do i create a "gerber wheel file" ?
thanx
alvin
== and if your local to 408/650/510 area codes ... i'll pay for your time/expertise
