00:29 _rmk_ right, finally got to the bottom of why SDIO doesn't work
00:30 _rmk_ I can see I may end up having to rewrite the sdhci stuff... because it's a patchwork quilt of hacks trying to give the impression of a working driver
00:40 sickness that's the problem with linux, openbsd is far nicer in this respect ;)
00:54 _rmk_ well, the down-side is that I'm going to have to spend time sorting this out - probably rewriting much of the driver to be a lot more sane.
01:47 Bluerise sickness: I don't think OpenBSD is nicer there.
01:47 Bluerise sickness: Well, let's say it differently. Linux has support for something, but it might not be implemented nice. OpenBSD has some good implementations, but lacks support for stuff.
01:53 Bluerise But you probably also will agree that OpenBSD is comparatively slow, has bad locking (big lock) and unfortunately didn't invest much in SMP...
04:06 Dacto Hi all, has anyone successfully (fluidly) run xbmc on arch arm?
04:10 Dacto I don't think I've installed the correct video driver for it.
07:45 sickness Bluerise: yeah, I agree on this, but at least when in openbsd something works, apart from being stable, it also works by default with the generic kernel, you don't have thinker with compile options, boot time options, modules load time options, and so on =_)
12:40 davorin aah..usom modules arrived in zurich...(o;
21:09 purch has anyone the latest ubuntu armhf on cubox-i4 as headless server with audio?
21:09 purch I was looking saucy, but not 100% sure if it is possible
21:10 purch oneiric working, but it is so old :)
21:14 hste purch: if you don't need the vpu/gpu stuff it should work. You can try this and add uboot and kernel to it http://stende.no-ip.info/files/linaro-precise-alip-20121124-519.tgz
21:15 hste purch: or the apt updated version of it http://stende.no-ip.info/files/linaro_alip_updated_saucy.tgz
21:19 purch are those hard floating point?
21:19 hste purch: yes but not with the gpu/vpu libs
21:26 purch hste: which kernel and uboot at least work with saucy image?
21:27 hste purch: http://imx.solid-run.com/wiki/index.php?title=Building_the_kernel_and_u-boot_for_the_CuBox-i_and_the_HummingBoard
21:29 purch hste: thanks, I try those and maybe later a newer kernel
