| 14:27 | xxfog | rabeeh PING |
| 14:48 | RandomPixels | hello |
| 15:00 | RandomPixels | i have a problem: my cubox won't start without HDMI input connected, is there any way to bypass that ? |
| 15:17 | dv505 | RandomPixels: have you checked with the serial connection attached? any messages to the serial console? |
| 15:19 | dv505 | mm, RandomPixels left the conversation. just 3 min after asking a question... |
| 15:30 | Sage_ | hi all, got nemo mobile and Mer running on cubox quite nicely now |
| 15:31 | Sage_ | Though there seems to be something on driver side e.g. http://pastie.org/5067730 |
| 15:31 | Sage_ | will do a blog post and video soon (hopefully today) |
| 15:44 | ralix | hello |
| 15:47 | ralix | aur (marvell-xbmc-git) package built successful, thx for the update @N3ON |
| 15:47 | N30N | ralix: np ;) |
| 15:48 | ralix | I'll try when I'm at home |
| 16:46 | rabeeh | Sage_: great. is there a ready to use filesystem? |
| 16:47 | Sage_ | Well, I'm posting a guide how to make one at least. |
| 16:51 | rabeeh | great. |
| 16:51 | rabeeh | i would like to get Mer to the CuBox installer too. |
| 16:53 | Sage_ | well Mer it self doesn't boot on any hw itself it needs hardware adaptation and UI that nemo provides |
| 16:54 | Sage_ | if you have just Mer installed you have just xterm pretty much |
| 16:57 | Kiranos | Sage_: good job! |
| 16:57 | Kiranos | nemo aswell as kde has a working desktop right? |
| 16:57 | Kiranos | for mer |
| 16:57 | Kiranos | kde plasma |
| 16:58 | Sage_ | yes they have their desktop there as well |
| 19:01 | Sage_ | http://sagestechblog.blogspot.fi/2012/10/nemo-mobile-on-cubox.html |
| 19:01 | Sage_ | here it is |
| 19:19 | Kiranos | nice! |
| 19:19 | Kiranos | should be made as a news item for cubox |
| 19:22 | rabeeh | Kiranos: already sent to Jessica |
| 19:22 | rabeeh | Sage_: which resolution are you running? |
| 19:23 | rabeeh | Sage_: oh - and which video playback architecture do you use to accelerate video? |
| 19:28 | Sage_ | rabeeh: That is runnign 1024x768 |
| 19:28 | Sage_ | rabeeh: I haven't tried video playback yet. |
| 19:28 | Sage_ | is there gstreamer plugins for video playback? |
| 19:29 | Sage_ | seems so. So probably those could be used quite easily with nemo as well to accelerate video |
| 19:30 | Sage_ | need to check that at some point. |
| 19:32 | Sage_ | Biggest problem with the UI is currently that when ever application is started the compositor takes memory but never frees it so it runs out of memory quite soon :/ |
| 20:17 | rabeeh | pepedog: hi |
| 20:18 | rabeeh | pepedog: what should i provide to get vmeta hardfp on arch working? |
| 20:18 | rabeeh | do you need a binary libmiscgen.so? |
| 20:20 | pepedog | I suppose I will need that |
| 20:21 | N30N | pepedog: was your comment about xbmc on the forum, you know it's on AUR right? |
| 20:21 | rabeeh | pepedog: i'm rebuilding now one from geexbox repo. i guess it will be usable as-is |
| 20:21 | pepedog | The xorg 1.13 is more a prob |
| 20:22 | pepedog | N3on, thanks |
| 20:23 | pepedog | Does it run ok |
| 20:23 | N30N | yep (as well as other distros) |
| 20:24 | rabeeh | pepedog: jnettlet already fixed that (olpc build) |
| 20:25 | rabeeh | jnettlet: can you please the Xorg 13 fix that you had? |
| 20:26 | N30N | xorg fix, nice one :) |
| 20:26 | jnettlet | rabeeh, I have also ported the dovefb xorg driver to the new compat-api.h standard that allows it to run against the 1.13 xorg server |
| 20:28 | pepedog | Ok, is it a patch or d load? |
| 20:29 | pepedog | I can't believe got tegra working on new xorg before anything else |
| 20:36 | pepedog | Twitter links led to videos of dotarray |
| 20:45 | rabeeh | pepedog: what's missing now to get fully blown desktop on Arch? |
| 20:46 | rabeeh | i.e. besides the vmeta libmiscgen.so for xbmc and the xorg 13 patch? |
| 20:48 | pepedog | I think that's all. Will dig more. |
| 20:49 | pepedog | You got my email |
| 20:49 | rabeeh | yes |
| 20:51 | pepedog | Tiling of bathroom has put a big dent in my time |
| 21:17 | jnettlet | rabeeh, yeah I can get that pushed soon. Which version of the dovefb driver is ARCH using? |
| 21:18 | N30N | N30N: ? |
| 21:19 | jnettlet | rabeeh, they can also use our vmeta libraries |
| 21:19 | rabeeh | pepedog mentioned xorg 1.13 |
| 21:20 | rabeeh | are those libs different than the ones we have from Marvell? |
| 21:20 | jnettlet | wondering if they are using the debian dovefb driver, or mine |
| 21:20 | jnettlet | rabeeh, mine are yes |
| 21:21 | rabeeh | did you mean vmeta or the gpu? |
| 21:22 | N30N | jnettlet/rabeeh: arch uses dovefb v0.3.4 |
| 21:23 | jnettlet | rabeeh, vmeta |
| 21:24 | rabeeh | how is dovefb related to vmeta? |
| 21:24 | jnettlet | N30N, okay thanks. we will probably need to adapt the patch a bit. |
| 21:24 | jnettlet | the only relation between dovefb and vmeta is that the XVideo driver is setup to find the vmeta SHM markers and do zero copy decoded video display |
| 21:25 | N30N | rabeeh: vmeta has been working in arch for ages |
| 21:26 | bencoh | you mean, zerocopy the decoded frame to the fb ? |
| 21:27 | rabeeh | bencoh: yes |
| 21:27 | jnettlet | bencoh, well not 100% zero copy. It minimizes the copies....you still go from SHM to framebuffer |
| 21:27 | jnettlet | but it reduces the cpu utilization for 720p video from about 70% to 30% |
| 21:28 | rabeeh | for XBMC; vmeta native driver decodes frames in UYVY format, then the video overlay resize and color convert to RGB |
| 21:28 | jnettlet | http://dev.laptop.org/~jnettlet/0001-dovefb-port-to-compat-api-for-new-server.patch |
| 21:28 | jnettlet | see if that applies in any sane way |
| 21:29 | N30N | jnettlet: thanks will give it a try |
| 21:31 | bencoh | gimli: is your marvell/vmeta/xbmc tree still available somewhere ? |
| 21:33 | gimli | bencoh: yes. but only local |
| 21:34 | gimli | bencoh: accidental deleted the branch |
| 21:36 | N30N | jnettlet: Hunk #8 and #22 failed |
| 21:39 | bencoh | gimli: any chance that it gets uploaded back ? :) |
| 21:41 | jnettlet | N30N, my driver is different. can you take a look, I bet they are simple fixes. |
| 21:42 | N30N | jnettlet: yep will do in a min |
| 21:42 | N30N | jnettlet: you version better? |
| 21:42 | N30N | your* |
| 21:43 | jnettlet | N30N, yeah my version has been optimized for the best performance |
| 21:44 | N30N | Can we switch to that then? :) |
| 21:44 | jnettlet | N30N, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnnAY-lj55g&feature=g-upl |
| 21:44 | jnettlet | that is at 1200x900, so about the same as 720p |
| 21:45 | jnettlet | but I have a couple of outstanding compositing fixes I need to do for the new xorg and cairo releases. I have to handle solid pixmap composites, and negative src copies |
| 21:46 | N30N | looks nice :) |
| 21:46 | jnettlet | getting there |
| 21:53 | pepedog | N3ON are you doing this with a view for arch? I was going to do tomorrow ot tonight. Not happy with hunk fail, will see for myself |
| 21:54 | jnettlet | pepedog, the Hunk fail is most likely due to code you guys don't have, or stuff that I have changed. Should just need to be fixed up a bit. |
| 21:55 | N30N | pepedog: yep (for arch), also just checking hunks now :) |
| 22:02 | gimli | bencoh: on the weekend when i do not forget i do |
| 22:03 | bencoh | thx :) |
| 23:17 | N30N | updated patch available here: https://github.com/aldrik/PKGBUILDs/blob/f645b6b04e0296aa10e853c7756e45a01b99fd98/alarm/xf86-video-dove/dovefb-port-to-compat-api-for-new-server.patch |
| 23:22 | N30N | rabeeh: arch updated to libgl v9.0 and now glxgears no longer works. |
| 23:43 | pepedog | N3ON I just went thru and created ne patch, tested and was about to fix on GitHub only to find you beat me to it |
| 23:43 | pepedog | Reinvented the wheel |
| 23:44 | dotarray | don't you love it when that happens? ;) |
| 23:45 | pepedog | Wll he won't beat me for doing ditto on trimslice |
| 23:47 | pepedog | Dotarray been stalking you, watched some of your vids, curiosity satisfied |
| 23:52 | N30N | pepedog: sorry about that :) |
| 23:54 | dotarray | pepedog - you're convinced I'm a real person, now? :) |
