00:01 cbxbiker61 awesome rabeeh! where are the patches?
00:02 rabeeh cbxbiker61: i'm sending you those.
00:03 cbxbiker61 thanks, i'm just now renaming S/PDIF to SPDIF to get passthrough working
00:03 rabeeh sent
00:03 rabeeh oh
00:04 rabeeh there are some other patches i'v seen from rudi on geexbox to get better passthrough
00:04 rabeeh fixed on kirkwood_spdif.conf alsa card file
00:04 rabeeh i still wonder if we can get dts-hd or truehd working as passthrough or not.
00:05 rabeeh ttys; heading to get some sleep.
00:05 cbxbiker61 i'm assuming the conf file should be in git
00:06 cbxbiker61 rabeeh, i'll test the high-end passthrough as soon as i finish rebuilding my distro
00:06 cbxbiker61 tomorrow or the next day
01:30 Coburn rabeeh: HDMI monitor is nearby me today.
01:31 Coburn Expect to get a dump of LCD registers asap
01:55 Coburn man, 16GB Class 4 uSDs are slow when dding stuff across
02:00 ojn class 4? ick. yeah.
02:01 Coburn yeah, I'm using a class 4 just as a temp one
02:01 Coburn 5108662272 bytes (5.1 GB) copied, 1316.72 s, 3.9 MB/s
02:01 Coburn that's a dd with bs=1M
02:04 ojn oflag=sync tends to help too
02:05 ojn oflag=sync tends to help too
02:08 Coburn hm, ok
02:14 Coburn amost done
02:39 Coburn luckily, my replacement 1TB HDD arrived today, since I killed the old one
02:40 Coburn so here's hoping that I won't kill it.
02:40 dmitrijus Coburn: how did you manage to kill the old one?
02:40 Coburn dropped off a bench, onto the floor while turned on
02:41 Coburn I have my hand on the new one
02:41 Coburn so it stays put
02:41 dmitrijus :)
02:41 rmull Should use duct tape :P
02:42 Coburn It was actually my brothers
02:42 Coburn brothers external HDD for his cubox
02:43 Coburn so I had to lie and say "shit, it started clicking! Must need to warranty that"
02:45 dmitrijus :)
02:48 Coburn Alright
02:48 Coburn I'm in
02:48 Coburn XBMC is up
02:48 Coburn let's get this sucker glitchin;
02:52 Coburn Ok
02:52 Coburn First attempt
02:53 Coburn green screen with this spew in the debug log (ping rabeeh): wait_for_vsync: vid wait for vsync timed out, rc 0
02:53 Coburn debug console, I should say to be more correct. I also took a picutre of it, will mail it to you later on, rabeeh.
02:54 Coburn Rebooting usually fixes the issue. Doing that now.
03:09 Coburn I can't get it to glitch
03:09 Coburn Been trying 20 odd dvd rips
03:09 Coburn and it's been fine
03:09 Coburn could it be my brother has a crappy HDMI cable that's causing this?
03:10 Coburn I do not know.
03:10 Coburn I'll continue trying
03:56 Coburn Well, another round of testing videos and I can't get it to glitch using a HDMI cable from my Nintendo Wii U.
03:56 Coburn Everything seems to operate OK.
03:57 Coburn My current CuBox is a retail CuBox, the ones that dbsx has.
03:57 Coburn My previous one, which my brother has, is a engineering sample
04:08 Coburn so methinks that the glitch is just one that appears to be on the ES units
07:43 Coburn Hmm... it seems my CuBox gets stuck looking at FAT32 formatted USBs
07:44 Coburn Ah, it's actually ntfs!
07:44 Coburn No wonder...
08:08 Coburn No, actually
08:08 Coburn I think it's the eSATA port
08:08 Coburn because eventually it squarks "Device NOT ready, sense 00 00 00"
08:30 ralix morning
08:35 Coburn Morning
08:39 Coburn Yep
08:39 Coburn Confirmed
08:39 Coburn any USB over 8GB in size that is a flash disk will cause CuBox to complain.
08:39 Coburn At least on mine.
18:02 NotRelevant is this working with CuBox? http://www.chalk-elec.com/?p=1576
18:24 niteye finally managed to installl debian on my cubox
18:24 niteye man its not for the computer illiterate i must say eh
18:25 niteye i still have to compile proper kernel, now is running the same one i used for the installation , but the key stuff (network and daemons) seem to work
19:05 ascent hmm the cubox installer gives me xilka with xbmc alpha4.. that's pretty old. can I check if thats the newest xilka available?
19:17 tomlohave don't know for xilka ...
20:42 cbxbiker61 i'm updating xilka currently, i'll make a new version available in about a week
21:15 koboldmaki @rabeeh: if you want to create heavy cpu load, use "openssl" like "openssl speed rsa -multi 4" for dual core system
21:18 koboldmaki put it inside an endless loop ;-).... good for a heat test...
23:52 dbsx I have a uboot bug
23:52 dbsx http://www.solid-run.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1102
23:53 dbsx It would seem that the wait is not long enough.
