00:53 dv__ bencoh: what did you mean?
00:54 dv_ uwah looks like I'm getting far behind meta-cubox rep
00:55 dv_ note that my meta-cubox layer and naguirre's older one are completely different. mine is not a fork, it is done from scratch.
01:00 bencoh hm, I cloned mine from naguirre's
01:00 bencoh (as far as I remember)
01:01 bencoh I guess I should yours ... someday(tm) :)
01:01 bencoh +look at
01:10 dv_ initially I tried out his
01:10 dv_ but it didnt work properly with yocto, and many things were missing that I wanted
01:11 dv_ anyway, mine works with both danny and dylan versions of yocto
01:11 dv_ feedback welcome :)
01:53 dv_ on another note, perhaps somebody knows what is going on?
01:53 dv_ 1080p video with hardware decoder on an arm platform: 77% CPU usage. then I comment out the memcpy from the decoder's DMA buffer to the output frame's GstBuffer: 12%.
01:53 dv_ (well, the arm platform being the cubox actually :) )
01:54 dv_ this is at 30 fps, so with UYVY pixels, thats about 240 MB/s. not that much, actually. is memory bandwidth very low with the cubox?
12:19 dv505 hooray, one year of irc logging on this channel
12:19 dv505 got 4MB of archived text
12:19 dv505 any one even reading those logs?

12:20 Coolgeek it's usefull if you search for something
12:23 dv505 online too, that's what I was talking about: http://server.vijge.net/static/cubox/irclog/
18:54 MMlosh is it possible, that my cubox's sata does only 15MB/s when writing zeros over a HDD?
18:59 dv_ sounds low
18:59 dv_ check the hd settings with hdparm
19:00 dv_ dd if=/dev/zero of=/path/to/hdd/mount/zeros-dump bs=32768 should give you more than just 15 MB/s
19:02 MMlosh hmm.. bigger blocksize might help
19:05 MMlosh dv_, it says: multcount=0 (default), IO_support=0 (default), readonly=0 (off), readahead=256 (on), geometry=30401/256/63 sectors=488397168 start=0
19:06 MMlosh not much settings.. did I miss a parameter?
19:07 MMlosh the only difference is me writing to /dev/sdb.. if I wanted a file full of zeros, I would make a file with a hole with truncate
19:09 MMlosh dv_, the blocksize seems to do the trick so far does that mean that the the driver sucks or IO scheduler is misconfigured?
19:09 MMlosh you were right.. 68MB/s
19:10 MMlosh not awesome, but tolerable...
19:22 MMlosh oh wait... 68MBps = 544mbps > USB 2.0
19:23 MMlosh which does 480mbps
22:48 MMlos 22:48 * MMlosh is disappoint.. Kernel doesn't seem to see UUIDs (it says 0000-0000-etc), so I cannot use them for "root="
