| 00:01 | obinou_ | gk802 obviously, and also another project I work on, it's a RC plane |
| 00:01 | obinou_ | with one of those DIMM-like format daughterboard |
| 00:01 | obinou_ | (lemme check the picture...) |
| 00:03 | obinou_ | rabeeh: this : http://www.phytec.com/site/assets/files/1010/home-slide-02.980x400.jpg |
| 00:04 | obinou_ | when inside the plane, the imx6 is used to stream video to ground, and the temperature slowly rise up to 90?C , when the thermal safety engage and make the board really slow |
| 00:05 | rabeeh | you are building a carrier for this? |
| 00:05 | obinou_ | for now a redesign of the plane's body is under work to make an airflow intake |
| 00:05 | obinou_ | we did one carrier board for it, yes |
| 00:06 | obinou_ | with SATA/3G modem/wifi link , and vaious camera connection, including ethernet giga |
| 00:06 | rabeeh | so it's a big RC plane |
| 00:06 | rabeeh | CuBox-i uses the SolidRun microSOM |
| 00:07 | obinou_ | and even an (optional) satellite link that use the iridium network (speek of many $$$) |
| 00:07 | obinou_ | The plane is quite big, yes : 2m winspan |
| 00:07 | rabeeh | a 2"x1" and uses integrated aluminum heatsink and dissipates everything inside a closed plastic body |
| 00:08 | rabeeh | it's actually a heat spreader rather than heatsink |
| 00:09 | obinou_ | ok, so the cubox body stays quite hot while working ? |
| 00:10 | rabeeh | if running quad core memtester; the gpu, ethernet at gig link and wifi it reaches ~80c after 45minutes of work (that's the max) |
| 00:10 | rabeeh | and that's one of the most leaky imx6 devices |
| 00:11 | obinou_ | 80?C the die, or the body !!!? |
| 00:11 | rabeeh | by leaky i mean it has highest current leakage (that's process deviations in silicon) |
| 00:11 | rabeeh | die |
| 00:11 | obinou_ | ok |
| 00:11 | obinou_ | (i feel better :-) ) |
| 00:11 | rabeeh | :) |
| 00:12 | rabeeh | body can go up to 50 to 55c |
| 00:12 | rabeeh | feels warm+ |
| 00:12 | rabeeh | a bit hot |
| 00:12 | obinou_ | do you know if Freescale intend to release future imx6 quad version that heat less ? |
| 00:12 | rabeeh | but that's me since i have sensitive hands |
| 00:12 | obinou_ | ok |
| 00:12 | obinou_ | I mean that still quite hot for general public |
| 00:13 | rabeeh | 55c on plastic is nothing |
| 00:13 | rabeeh | the allowed specifications for plastic material is 65c |
| 09:53 | tricorn | Ubuntu image that was just uploaded appears to be short, doesn't match md5 http://download.solid-run.com/pub/solidrun/cubox-i/Ubuntu/ubuntu-oneiric-freescale/ubuntu-oneiric-freescale.img.xz |
| 10:00 | sickness | little question: are the SABRE Lite and Nitrogen6X boards like the cubox-i ? would it be easy to port http://www.openbsd.org/armv7.html on cubox-i since it already supports those boards? |
| 10:03 | tricorn | they both use the imx6 SoC, so I'd think they'd be pretty much compatible |
| 10:05 | jnettlet | sickness, somebody was already working on porting BSD to the cubox-i. He is not signed in right now. I would check the forums |
| 10:05 | jnettlet | sickness, the big holdup is that BSD does not want to use device-tree files licensed under the GPL. |
| 10:07 | tricorn | so what's with the ubuntu image that was just uploaded, appears to be corrupted http://download.solid-run.com/pub/solidrun/cubox-i/Ubuntu/ubuntu-oneiric-freescale/ubuntu-oneiric-freescale.img.xz |
| 10:09 | jnettlet | tricorn, perhaps it is still uploading |
| 10:10 | tricorn | then it's been stalled for a few hours |
| 10:10 | jnettlet | or it is a very slow upstream pipe |
| 10:36 | sickness | jnettlet: tnx for the info! :) I did read about porting on the cubox on the ml, but it was a different hardware, anyway if the SOC is the same and there's already a port, maybe they can do without gpl device-tree files... |
| 10:49 | xraxor_ | tricorn: the Debian image was also bad yesterday, size was only 71mb, today is 400mb, so maybe just wait a bit, im not sure tho |
| 15:04 | rabeeh | xraxor_: ubuntu upload got interrupt yesterday; i'm reuploading back again |
| 15:05 | rabeeh | the reason you are have seen partial debian is that because of the servers rsync. |
| 16:24 | xraxor_ | tested the Debian image :D |
| 16:25 | xraxor_ | great, video playback smoother than geexbox lastest img in my opinion |
| 16:25 | xraxor_ | played 1080p very smooth, dnt know about the frames as dnt know how to work with the video-player.sh yet |
| 16:30 | rabeeh | xraxor_: what? |
| 16:30 | rabeeh | oh; that's using dv_ new gstreamer plugins :) |
| 16:30 | rabeeh | dv_: you'v earned a point from an end user |
| 16:31 | rabeeh | xraxor_: and is it using 60hz refresh rate too? |
| 16:31 | rabeeh | it probably doesn't do the switch too. |
| 16:35 | rabeeh | xraxor_: which player do you use? |
| 16:39 | hste | xraxor__ cp the /home/debian/video-player.sh to /usr/local/bin |
| 16:42 | hste | xraxor_ Download http://stende.no-ip.info/files/owl.desktop and put it in /usr/share/applications/owl.desktop |
| 16:43 | hste | xraxor_ Then u should find it in the audio video section |
| 16:44 | hste | rabeeh: yes I saw your post :) |
| 16:59 | xraxor_ | thanks |
| 17:00 | xraxor_ | i opened the files with video-player.sh |
| 17:01 | xraxor_ | seems like i confused you guys sorry...will do more test once i get home. |
| 17:02 | xraxor_ | the way i opened video-palyer.sh was by clicking on video i wanted to play, and the open with what program windows came up, theres an option there saying open program with command and i typed ./video-player.sh and voila it opened it :) |
| 17:05 | hste | That program uses the gstreamer-0.10. To use the dv_ gstreamer-1.0 you have to use the gst-1.0-playbin.sh wher you have to use the full path to the media file |
| 17:15 | xraxor_ | rabeeh: im at work so didnt check that, will try on my TV once i get home. thanks guys |
| 20:34 | hste | rabeeh: I have made a lxde version of jas-hacks_ jessie rootfs http://stende.no-ip.info/imx6/jessie-lxde.tar.xz |
