| 01:19 | dbsx | No red light on front when poweron with i4pro. What now? |
| 10:48 | captainigloo | hi, i'm looking at the cubox-i and i was wondering if there is a possibility to connect a screen via displayport ? |
| 12:36 | _505 | captainigloo: there are connectors for HDMI to displayport |
| 12:54 | jnettlet | _505, for hdmi out to displayport in you need an active adapter which tends to be quite pricy. displayport out to hdmi in is what requires a cheap passive adapter |
| 13:47 | captainigloo | _505: yes i know but what i would like to do is to connect a Ipad screen to the cubox. |
| 13:47 | captainigloo | http://emerythacks.blogspot.fr/2013/04/connecting-ipad-retina-lcd-to-pc.html |
| 13:48 | captainigloo | i read the imx6 datasheet, and it seems there is a 24bit parallel bus to connect a screen |
| 13:48 | captainigloo | i'm wondering if it would be possible to get it on the cubox |
| 13:48 | jnettlet | there are lvds pinouts |
| 13:50 | captainigloo | ah! but cubox-i is not the same than the carrier-one ! |
| 13:51 | captainigloo | i shoudld read the wiki pages more carrefully ... |
| 13:52 | jnettlet | correct |
| 13:52 | captainigloo | and there is an lvds connector on the carrier one |
| 13:52 | jnettlet | there are pads for an lvds connector |
| 13:53 | jnettlet | I think _rmk_ has actually wired them up on his board |
| 13:57 | captainigloo | ipad screen is has en eDP interface |
| 14:07 | jnettlet | do you have an ipad screen you want to use? You can get other high resolution screens that are probably cheaper |
| 14:08 | captainigloo | one of the reason i want to use it is because it's cheap for the resolution |
| 14:08 | captainigloo | you get a retina display for 80$ |
| 14:09 | captainigloo | and you find it easily |
| 14:09 | jnettlet | rabeeh, what are you thoughts about exposing that AXI QOS tweak for the ipu to be easily set somehow? Maybe a kernel command option, or sysfs node. |
| 14:09 | _rmk_ | jnettlet: I never wired them up, I just probed them with the 'scope |
| 14:09 | _rmk_ | ... and found nothing on them |
| 14:09 | captainigloo | but if you know other screen reference i would be happy :) |
| 14:09 | jnettlet | ah okay |
| 14:11 | captainigloo | it seems taht i need a converter between the eDP and the lvds ouput ... |
| 14:12 | jnettlet | yep. Would also have to test performance at that resolution. The hardware is really more aimed at 1080p |
| 14:12 | captainigloo | indeed |
| 14:13 | jnettlet | although most the tablets don't actually draw at wqxga resolutions. The output to 1080p max and then scale, or line double up. |
| 14:14 | captainigloo | even ipad ? |
| 14:15 | jnettlet | no idea, I don't work on closed OS's at this point. |
| 14:16 | captainigloo | ok :) |
| 15:03 | MarcusVinter | Hi Solid-Run Team. New Cubox has arrived at i-Virtuals. Will start work on it now. Thanks! |
| 16:49 | hste | jnettlet: tested more on gpu performance? |
| 16:52 | jnettlet | hste, nothing new for today. Still fighting through getting xbmc running |
| 17:04 | Juggie | which video acceleration are you working with? |
| 17:08 | jnettlet | optimizng the Vivante kernel driver. |
| 17:15 | hste | jnettlet: You |
| 17:15 | jnettlet | Me? |
| 17:16 | hste | jnettlet: have u tried just cp stephans xbmc onto your ubuntu |
| 17:17 | jnettlet | hste, not yet. it is almost built now. |
| 17:17 | jnettlet | Then the question is if it can link in 512MB's of RAM |
| 17:17 | jnettle | 17:17 * jnettlet really needs to setup his XO-4 as another build machine again. |
| 17:18 | jnettlet | or a Cubox-i Pro4 :-P |
| 17:20 | hste | jnettlet: I have to retire some servers at work. Then I get a real homerserver to crosscompile on. |
| 17:21 | jnettlet | I generally save my desktop for kernel compilations. For things that I don't need, right now, I will let the hardware churn. It is a good stress test on the hardware as well. |
| 17:24 | jnettlet | hste, I did get the vpu libs compiled and setup so if they pass the kernel is almost ready to go. I will probably add a couple of configs to my 3.10 tree. 1) will be the "freescale" config and 2) will be the "upstream config" That will have the KMS driver and _rmk_'s alsa driver instead of the fsl ASOC driver for audio. |
| 17:25 | hste | nice :) |
| 17:28 | hste | jnettlet: would it be easy to backport to 3.0.35_4.1.0 ? |
| 17:30 | jnettlet | why? |
| 17:30 | jnettlet | and for some things yes, others not so much. |
| 17:31 | hste | so I could use it on my gk802 |
| 17:32 | jnettlet | That should work with 3.10. It is just an IMX6. Might need a nip here, a tuck there, but nothing major |
| 17:32 | hste | yes but need to fix uboot etc |
| 17:34 | jnettlet | even if it is running 2009 u-boot you can use a uImage with an embedded dtb for device-tree support |
| 17:35 | hste | yes but the gk802 board specific has to be added |
| 17:37 | jnettlet | should be easy enough. A good learning experience |
| 17:37 | hste | :) |
| 18:03 | jnettlet | rabeeh, have you built Android 4.3 yet or are you still testing 4.2.2? |
| 18:26 | _rmk_ | right, if I get this right, I shouldn't drop off freenode... if I've missed something (highly likely)... |
| 18:28 | _rmk_ | this is a case of reconfigure three things simultaneously thereby totally changing the network routing and hoping nothing breaks |
| 19:03 | MarcusVinter | Lol. |
| 21:05 | hste | jas-hacks_: I got vpu working using gplay and the yocto app video. It uses gstreamer-0.10 |
| 21:09 | _rmk_ | MarcusVinter: well, it was a rather complex reconfiguration, it was bound to go wrong |
| 21:12 | _rmk_ | it involved disabling one dsl router, shutting down a pppoe session. Then on the old router, stopping the ipv6 radvd, deleting a public ip, replacing the default route. On the new router, removing its existing default route, starting the new pppoe session, adding the public ip, a link scoped ipv6 address, deleting some ip routing rules, and finally starting the radvd there... |
| 21:13 | jas-hacks_ | hste: good, is that with the 3.10 libs? |
| 21:14 | hste | jas-hacks_: yes |
| 21:16 | jas-hacks_ | hste: that's to good to know, need to work out what I'm doing wrong then on the debian build as gplay fails |
| 21:20 | hste | jas-hacks_: I did a dirty overlay copy of my yocto build rootfs compiled with eglibc_2.17 |
| 22:21 | hste | jas-hacks_: I made a rootfs of it http://stende.no-ip.info/c1/ubuntu-13.10-armhf-mixedyocto-gpu-vpu-0.9.tar.bz2 |
| 22:52 | hste | _rmk_: still configure your network? :) |
| 22:53 | _rmk_ | hste: yep, that was a reboot to 3.12.6 because 3.11.5 oopsed on me |
| 22:53 | _rmk_ | and now I'm trying to track down wtf is going on with ipv6 |
| 22:59 | _rmk_ | finding all those corner cases like... setting the 6to4 mtu low enough to get around the pppoe overhead |
| 23:01 | _rmk_ | the good news is... I'm running out of things to check |
| 23:01 | _rmk_ | I've found a bug in irssi though - if a dns entry contains a site-local address, it totally barfs at it and refuses to connect in any way to that name |
| 23:02 | _rmk_ | (it doesn't merely skip the address...) |
